They're Coming for You: How Deep State Spies, NGOs, and Woke Corporations Plan to Push You Out of the Economy―Exposing How the Left Want MAGA to Feel Under Siege
Trump may be in office, but the Democrats have laid the groundwork for permanent power.
While the Biden-Harris administration publicly stumbled and flailed, their bureaucrats and allies outside of government have been turning Republican nightmares into dystopian realities. Censoring the truth tellers. Debanking the politically disfavored. Firing the vaccine hesitant. Excluding the white, Christian, and conservative job applicants. Who needs a deep state when academia, big banks, corporations, and the healthcare system are willing to do what the deep state can’t?
Now that they’re out of power in the White House and Congress, the Democrats are mobilizing in the shadows, working to make sure an election like 2024 never happens again. In They’re Coming for You, Jason Chaffetz reveals how Democrats have been planting the seeds of political control using unelected institutions that collect and weaponize private information. Most of us know we have traded our privacy for convenience. Most of us have chosen not to worry that the government will track our Facebook posts and arrest us. But what if an online retailer does? What if companies use that data to refuse to hire us, do business with us, or ship products to us?
They’re Coming for You lays bare the frightening truth about how these institutions are collecting, buying, selling, and sharing our data without regard for our privacy, civil liberties, or national security. Republican political victories will ring hollow until this bureaucratic partnership with the nonprofit and private sectors is exposed and the power of the administrative state checked.
The author is a former member of the House of Representative from Utah. He was the Chairman of United States House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform. This has provide him with unique insight to the potential misuse of personal data. In this book he reveals the extent of information that private industry and the government have on each of us. Your social media sites, phones, computers, even the cars you drive, etc. are constantly gathering and storing data in each of us. He describes that there is no such thing as personal information and/or privacy. Having just used Homeland Security's Global Entry to reenter the country, I was surprised that all that was needed was to take a picture. This of course requires that my photo being stored and access immediately. Convenient -Yes; but also concerning as to what someone could possibly do with this. His concern is the manipulation of this data by government bureaucratic, political parties or others to achieve their goals to detriment of all. He provides recommendations to curtail the misuse of our data and encourages all us be aware of the dangers we all face.
I enjoyed this read. Jason is well-researched, knowledgeable, and delivers from personal experience. They have arrived and it's not just the government. Be careful with what you say and do, because it's being recorded via camera, audio, the things we write on social media, and our comings and goings. Don't fear it, unless you did something wrong, but respect it.
