They're Coming for You: How Deep State Spies, NGOs, and Woke Corporations Plan to Push You Out of the Economy

2025

Synopsis

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.
