Its current editor is Betsy Reed. The publication initially reported on documents released by Edward Snowden and was considered to be "activist voice for privacy and civil liberties". Co-founders Greenwald and Poitras subsequently left amid public disagreements about the leadership and direction of the organization.

Deep State In The United States
According to an American political conspiracy theory, the deep state is a clandestine network of actors alongside members of the federal government in high-level financial and high-level industrial roles. The theory posits that the conglomerate of individuals and entities work together in a secret allegiance to exercise power alongside or within the elected United States government. Conservatives are more likely to use the term deep state than liberals. Liberals, on the other hand, often use the term "military-industrial complex", which they describe as a cabal of generals and defense contractors that enrich themselves through pushing the country into endless wars. Variations of the deep state have existed as popular conspiracy theories in the United States since the 1950s. The conspiracy theory reached mainstream recognition under the presidency of Donald Trump, who referenced an alleged deep state working against him and his administration’s agenda.
