Former President Donald Trump pledged to end corruption in Washington, D.C., by obliterating the deep state and creating a "Truth and Reconciliation Commission" that would declassify all information about government spying, censorship and corruption.
"When I get back into the Oval Office, I will totally obliterate the deep state," Trump
pledged Saturday at a Turning Point USA conference in Florida, taking aim at the alleged group of federal officials working against his agenda.
"We will create a Truth and Reconciliation Commission to declassify and publish all documents on deep state spying, censorship and all of the corruption that's gone on in America," he said.
Many different governments, including in South Africa, Canada, Australia and Germany, have used official Truth and Reconciliation Commissions to discover past government wrongdoings and resolve conflict. Similarly, congressional Republicans have pledged to create a
Church-style committee to probe systemic problems in the Justice System.
The former president also said that having served in Washington as president before, he now knows who he should have in his next administration.
"Now, better than maybe anyone else, I know the great ones. I know the smart ones. I know the dumb ones. I know the weak ones. I know the stupid ones," he also said. "I know everybody in Washington. I got a PhD in learning about the people of Washington."
Trump also said in the conclusion of his speech Saturday: "We will demolish the deep state, we will expel the warmongers, from our government we will drive out the globalists, we will cast out the communists, Marxists, fascists, we will throw off the sick political class that hates our country, and we will route the fake news media, we will defeat crooked Joe Biden and we will drain the swamp once and for all."
Trump unveiled a plan in March to
tackle the deep state if he is reelected. The 10-point plan includes taking on internal issues that created problems in his previous administration, including leaking.
