I think it's important to understand a few things about this:

1) This "deep state" is larger than the CIA - the CIA is simply its hook into the American government structure

2) This thing is the tool of the ruling oligarchy which is relatively easily traced back to Rome and probably at least as far back as ancient Babylon

3) Mike Benz (and Tucker Carlson and Vivek...and so on) are members of this thing, but they aren't all following orders, or at least not following orders from the same group - in other words, it's not a monolith and there are definitely factions that become more apparent at certain times than at others

4) We are witnessing a large revolt of several of these factions, the one we see most of is perhaps "American sovereigntist"

5) Although they try to create a reality for all of us to live within, and they certainly have a lot of control over our lives, we remain free if we have principles that at least approximate the natural human principles (not the fake Darwinian "might makes right" nonsense) and we honor those principles

If Mike Benz is talking about this, as you mentioned, we should ask why and to what end the information is now being propagated. And how reliable is it (wormhole within wormhole within wormhole...)? What does the propagator of this info want to make us feel/believe? Probably that we have no way to evaluate reality. That it's all a CIA-generated mirage/spectacle. This belief, true or not, will make us feel hopeless and adrift. It will make us question our judgments and perceptions. It might make us more eager for external "safety" assurances like, say, identity verification online or supposedly unhackable digital ID/currency. It will definitely make us feel unstable, which naturally leads to a yearning for stability. And who might provide that? I'm sure Mike Benz has some ideas.
