English term or phrase: deep state
Definition from Merriam-Webster:
An alleged secret network of especially nonelected government officials and sometimes private entities (as in the financial services and defense industries) operating extralegally to influence and enact government policy.

Example sentence(s):
  • It is Trump himself, under the camouflage of populist rhetoric, who has overseen the open expansion of the deep state: entrenched interests gaining outsize influence and setting their own policy agenda, unchecked by the will of the people, their elected representatives or the civil servants meant to regulate them. The Washington Post
  • “They take detailees, not the best from these agencies, often the worst, they stick them into the White House,” he concluded. “It's a practice that frankly should end, and the political appointees, Tim Morrison and [Kurt] Volker aren't mistaking themselves for the president, it's these Deep State bureaucrats that do.” Christian Whiton

estado profundo


Definition from Articulação conservadora:
Refere-se ao grupo de integrantes do “sistema” que, possuindo as mesmas ideologias, mentalidade e visão de mundo, age obscuramente manipulando, chantageando e sabotando os representantes honestos eleitos pelo povo, para que com isso consiga exercer, de fato, o controle da política governamental do país.

Example sentence(s):
  • De acordo com o primeiro-ministro russo, Dmitri Medvedev, assim que “a última névoa eleitoral se dissipou”, Trump foi “quebrado pelo sistema de poder” de Washington. Dominado por um “Estado profundo”, em suma, que não se deixa jamais desviar de suas prioridades estratégicas por causa das mudanças de inquilino na Casa Branca. - Diplomatique

Dominado por um “Estado profundo”, em suma, que não se deixa jamais desviar de suas prioridades estratégicas por causa das mudanças de inquilino na Casa Branca. Os republicanos e os democratas mais nostálgicos da Guerra Fria podem se vangloriar: Trump pode parecer uma marionete, mas não uma “marionete do Kremlin”…² Nesse ponto, ganhou o Estado profundo. - Le Monde Diplomatique
