"Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu Orders IDF, Mossad to Pursue Overthrow of Iranian Regime"--New York Post

Esther 10 

3 Mordecai the Jew was second in rank to King Xerxes, preeminent among the Jews, and held in high esteem by his many fellow Jews, because he worked for the good of his people and spoke up for the welfare of all the Jews.

Netanyahu orders IDF, Mossad to pursue overthrow of Iranian regime--NY Post:

“There is only one way to remove this threat once and for all: overthrow the regime in Iran. And that is my directive to the IDF, the Mossad and the security branches,” Netanyahu told an IDF officer course graduation ceremony.

“As long as they are here, as long as they strive to acquire horrific weapons, the State of Israel faces an existential threat,” Netanyahu said. “And our duty, the duty of all of us, is to save the nation.”

Netanyahu said Iran had resumed its nuclear program after Operation Rising Lion, seeking to bury the project deep beneath a mountain. That prompted the joint Israeli-U.S. Operation Roaring Lion, he said, whose opening strike killed Ali Khamenei.

Netanyahu said U.S. President Donald Trump also supported toppling the Iranian regime, quoting him as saying, “We are ready to finish the job,” but would do so only with Israel.

“We will eliminate the head of the octopus, and we will also finally sever its arms, the remainder of its arms, we will eliminate Hamas and eliminate Hezbollah,” Netanyahu said. “And I can tell you that many of our neighbors hope for this, in Lebanon, in Gaza, and certainly in Iran. In Iran, they hope for Israel’s victory.”

Trump also touted the strikes on Iran in remarks shared on Wednesday by the White House’s Rapid Response 47 account.

“I think it’s one of the greatest things that we’ve done—we’ve stopped Iran from having a nuclear weapon,” he said. “It took a lot of courage to do it because no other president was willing to do it.”” …….

"Masterstrokes" by Jeff Childers

☕️ MASTERSTROKES ☙ Thursday, October 22, 2026 ☙ C&C NEWS 🦠:

"It all sounds too crazy to be true. But the tinfoil crowd appears to be enjoying yet another massive vindication moment. Sunday evening disclosures —once again provided to the public through influencers— produced video evidence of what can be described, fairly and without exaggeration, as a well-funded group of current and former government officials conspiring to overthrow the federal government. Within 36 hours, the Washington Post tried to smother the story by printing a remarkable “this is fine!” story headlined, “U.S. officials privately advise states fearing Trump election meddling.” In conservative media, the story is experiencing a kind of journalistic Big Bang event. Laura Ingraham covered it last night:

CLIP: Laura Ingraham — “The left’s plan to overthrow the US government” (1:43).

Laura explained that, in the videos we have seen so far and in what the Washington Post actually admitted, a good-sized group of former Obama and Biden staffers, ex-USAID employees, retired military officers, activists, and ‘community organizers’ are covertly discussing a plan to end the U.S. federal government as we know it. As Laura Ingraham put it, this would work by “flooding the streets nationwide until Trump invokes the Insurrection Act. Claim the military is committing abuses. Get the press to amplify every clip. Then blue state governors unite to override federal authority and rewrite the Constitution.”

These current and former officials —who think they are meticulously standing just inside sedition laws— told the Washington Post they are already ‘working with’ governors, Congressmen, and election officials from at least ten states. This is alarming.

Although one can readily imagine some benefits of overthrowing the federal government —no more income taxes, mask mandates on airplanes, or Congresspersons— one suspects that whatever Democrats have in mind for after the revolution is probably a whole lot worse. So, we’ll keep the Constitution, thanks.

If you haven’t been following this story, at this point you are probably thinking I’m overreacting. I’ll back up a little.

🔥 You may be familiar with popular conservative influencer and ‘independent data researcher’ DataRepublican. Thanks to liberal doxxers, we also know her as Jennica Pounds, a deaf software engineer originally from Utah who worked at Amazon, eBay, and Snap. She earned her influencer slot when, in early 2025, she did something Washington had spent decades claiming was impossible: she built a searchable database of federal grant money, tracing who got paid, by whom, and through which nonprofits.

Elon Musk quoted Data at least 24 times in three weeks. When she flagged “a quick billion for you to cut!” in January 2025, Musk replied “Noted,” and within two weeks DOGE announced it was shutting off payments to one of the groups on her list. Rolling Stone responded by doxxing her. The Deseret News reported that her family’s distillery got review-bombed. Her kids had to leave school for a while.

In other words, she courageously followed the money sloshing around inside government while corporate media tried to destroy her and her family.

Now she says she’s found where the money trickled off to.

Last Sunday evening, Data dropped what she teased as the big one. “The past few days, I got my hands on thousands of new transcripts and hundreds of recordings,” she wrote. “Patience. I know I’ve hyped this more than anything else. It’s genuinely the biggest discovery I’ve had. This is an enormous archive. This is only the beginning.”

Two million people read her announcement. Over the next few hours and days, she started posting the tapes in installments she called, “The Democracy Files.” They turned out to be recordings of private strategy calls among former USAID “democracy promotion” officials, the people who used to run our government’s programs for coaching opposition movements in other countries.

In other words: former State Department color revolutionaries.

🔥 The tapes are pretty hard to explain away as harmless political organizing.

In Data’s Part 1, for example, an unidentified speaker says, “We have to be the ones who are creating an organization that is explicitly anti-constitutional,” and asks, “what happens if we need to go extra-constitutional?”

Remember, these aren’t internet randos. The Post collectively called them “current and former officials with experience in the State Department.” In Data’s Part 1, at about 0:07, a speaker says he’s “teamed up with the leaders of the Democracy Renewal Group. That’s 300 people who used to be… USAID people… doing democracy work and authoritarian pushback all over the globe.”

Then he says he’s a DSA member in its Marxist Unity Group caucus. USAID people … DSA activists … Marxists. Getting the idea yet?

So these are people who, until they got fired last year, were embedded in the US government, whom the media loves to call “patriotic, non-partisan career staff.” They were trained by our government in how to use “soft power” to “non-violently” overthrow other governments. They have actual experience in doing just that. And three hundred of them are now working with US Marxists.

You can’t just dismiss this as ordinary TDS chatter.

🔥 In Data’s Part 2, which was titled “When and How to Declare the Federal Government Illegitimate,” activists describe pre-written “red lines” for deciding when our elected government has become “illegitimate,” which one speaker called a “refounding moment,” plus an “options memo” for Democrat governors to become “the leading governing authority.”

The speakers were extremely careful not to say that, though, for obvious reasons.

Here are the five parts DataRepublican has published so far:The only way to interpret a call for governors to become the “leading governing authority” is that they would separate from and become independent from the rest of America.

Part 1: “The Plan”, Oct. 19 at 8:22 AM. This is the “anti-constitutional” and “extra constitutional” clip.

Part 2: “When and how to declare the federal government illegitimate”, Oct. 19 at 10:05 PM, with 2.6M views. It covers the governors memo, the “not secession” line, and Massachusetts, California and Illinois. The redlines criteria doc is also attached to it.

Part 3: “Foreign-intervention treatment”, Oct. 20 at 9:34 PM. This includes the ex-USAID officer saying, “we used to be the ones with a lot of money” (see below).

Part 4: “Yes, many are aware of the goals”, Oct. 21 at 1:50 PM. This covers the three “emergency” scenarios: militarization, the “election meltdown,” and members of Congress not seated fast enough.

🔥 There were some revealing admissions. In another clip, one retired USAID officer complained about how much harder his work is now, outside of government, instead of from the cushy environs within USAID headquarters.

“We used to be the ones with a lot of money,” he said, “and sharing our model and our guidance and our support.” Fortunately, though, other private funding sources have stepped in to help during this difficult period. “We are really grateful for those of you who are stepping up to provide a similar level of guidance and support for us as we traverse a difficult period here in the U.S.”

The reference to “here in the U.S.” suggested he was speaking for foreign donors. That might become a problem later. But bookmark that.

This raises so many questions. Like, who collected these fired USAID officials when that agency was shut down and tasked them with continuing? Did they work on US-related resistance while they were at the agency as federal employees? In other words, were these people weapons aimed back at us, when they were supposed to be focused on deploying ‘soft power’ against foreign countries? And who exactly is “stepping up to provide a similar level of (financial) support?”

Employing three hundred soft-power color revolutionaries sounds like it needs a whole lot of money.

DataRepublican said that she got the recordings from a tip. According to Data, one of the group’s leaders ran an AI note-taker that, apparently, saved everything to a public Google link. “I’ve got a bunch of ‘Chatham House rules, no recordings’ recordings,” Data posted. “Their stupidity is our saving grace.”

Ruh roh, Scooby.

🔥 About 36 hours after the first tapes dropped, the Washington Post ran the story I linked above. It was basically the same story. WaPo essentially confirmed everything DataRepublican had claimed. Except, of course, WaPo told it from the conspirators’ point of view, in which they see themselves as noble resistance fighters struggling to hang on to the last remaining shreds of democracy in a world teetering on global right-wing fascism.

Here’s how WaPo described them: “A small group of U.S. national security officials has been discreetly advising state governments and congressional lawmakers on how to prepare for the possibility that the Trump administration will attempt to interfere in November’s midterm elections,” the Post reported. It described the core group as “about 10 current and former officials with experience in the Defense Department, some of whom have previously focused on countering authoritarianism abroad.” Meaning, more color revolutionaries.

The Post named zero of them. It said they all wished to remain anonymous due to “fear of retaliation.” Uh huh. DataRepublican’s response: “This is how you know my recordings are real and they’re scared. Washington Post already doing counter-messaging.” Others noticed too.

The Washington Examiner’s Byron York pointed out that the Post’s story “is apparently based on the anonymous accounts of two people,” and quoted the Post’s own admission that the officials’ claims were “based on personal analysis of the administration’s activities and public statements… not access to specific government intelligence.”

🔥 So … what is their plan? They say it’s not secession. Not actually. “This is not a concept for a secession,” one speaker argued. “No one is talking about leaving the United States.” They say they don’t want out; they just want the steering wheel. But the details suggest something different. It sounds a whole lot like the same kind of talk preceding the 1860s Civil War secession.

For example, one speaker explained that, after a triggering event that “disqualifies” the federal government, making it “illegitimate,” governors would “keep on trying to run the country or at least parts of the country,” “coordinate with each other,” make “outreach to foreign governments,” and “wall off these illegitimate individuals”— meaning, presumably, Republicans.

That sounds like a decent description of the Confederate States of America, doesn’t it?

Let’s consider some similarities. Georgia’s 1850 Platform said the state would stay in the Union, but then listed federal acts that would justify leaving, like repealing the Fugitive Slave Act or abolishing slavery in D.C. That was a written list of triggers. The “red lines” memo mentioned in Data’s video clips —supposedly given to governors— sounds like the same thing.

In what we’ve gotten so far, the activists never say precisely what the red lines are. One speaker said they are still “being refined in terms of indicators and metrics.” But they did mention a couple of examples.

One “red line” they suggested was Trump using the Insurrection Act or seizing voting machines after an election. Another was a legal election, but one where some people don’t like the outcome: “We could have a clean election,” one speaker said, “and then half the country or 25% of the country doesn’t trust the results.”

It reminds us of when President Lincoln was lawfully elected, and some Southern States —“half the country”— didn’t like it.

Like revolutionary parrots, they kept repeating how they don’t want secession. But everything they proposed screamed secession. At one point, a speaker called for a third Continental Congress and a “declaration.” Alert readers will recall that the first two Continental Congresses produced a revolution and a declaration of independence from Great Britain.

What did they mean by saying we need a third Continental Congress? Well, in July 1775, three months after Lexington and Concord, the Second Continental Congress issued its Declaration of the Causes and Necessity of Taking Up Arms, which insisted, “We have not raised armies with ambitious designs of separating from Great Britain.” Maybe that wasn’t the ambitious design. But one year later, we were out.

1776 began with reassurances and ended with the business part of a bayonet. Let’s take them at their own word. That is what they meant.

None of this, of course, says anything about whether these nitwits actually have the capability of organizing a brown bag luncheon at a Chipotle, never mind organizing a third Constitutional Convention. So we’d normally ignore them as TDS idiots, except for the troubling reality that they are working with 300 disgruntled ex-USAID color revolutionaries.

DataRepublican, whose specialty is dot-connecting, has connected the USAID organizers and the activists with even bigger groups of former government officials, including one headed by retired Rear Admiral Mike Smith called National Security Leaders for America (until the election, “for Biden”), which boasts 1,600 former military members.

🔥 There’s much more. But you get the idea. Now, amidst all this highly troubling information, there were some encouraging points.

Democrats and corporate media allies have long curled their lips at the very idea of a deep state. They’ve labeled it one of the most durable Trump/MAGA conspiracy theories of all. I believe the New York Times stylebook requires sneer quotes whenever a reporter types “deep state.” Here, for example, is the Grey Lady, right out of the gate in 2017, declaring to the masses from its tall building headquarters that there is no such thing as a deep state.

Well, if federal employees can be fired but then seamlessly continue doing their geopolitical work anyway, with progressive foundations and donor sponsors stepping right into the funding gaps, what else would you call it, if not a ‘deep state’?

Whatever you decide to call it, it persists even after separation from the host. It’s like a parasite or a bad STD.

Fire any normal career bureaucrat, and you’d expect him to update his LinkedIn and take up golf. Instead, these USAID folks got a fiscal sponsor, a foundation grant, and a Zoom link, and kept right on running regime-change ops. Only now the target regime is ours.

If that isn’t a deep state, it’s at least a deep state alumni association, with dues paid by Arabella and the Ford Foundation.

Here’s the good news. By their own sad complaints — “We used to be the ones with a lot of money”— they are now operating outside the government, which is a vast improvement. The parasites are still alive, but at least they’ve been surgically removed from the victim. And now they must use private money, so we no longer experience the insult of them using our own money to injure us.

DOGE did, in fact, hurt them. Probably badly. Hopefully fatally.

Beyond that, well, thanks to DataRepublican, their conspiracy just got outed before they were ready. As Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis once said, “Sunlight is the best of disinfectants.” (Along with liberal amounts of Clorox.) Their plan depended on secrecy, as evidenced by their repeated comments like, “while we’re in the safe space here,” “we’re not publicizing this,” and switching off the recording for the Q&A.

But now the whole thing is out in the open. It’s subject to the harsh gaze of public scrutiny, two weeks before the midterms. The blue state governors will be asked about it. FOIAs will ensue. And it landed in October. By surprise. (Just saying.)

Any secret ‘contingency plan’ that’s been exposed before any of the contingencies happen is a lot harder to use effectively. And best of all: it opens up their potential criminal liability before they were ready.

🔥 Their exposure is much worse than they think. True, the conspirators have been very careful. As though coached by lawyers, every few minutes, while describing inevitable violence and secession, they kept insisting they aren’t advocating for violence or calling for secession.

And then they go right back to doing it. But there’s a reason for all their plaintive denials. They think it immunizes them.

Seditious conspiracy (18 U.S.C. § 2384) requires a plan to use force against the government, and the First Amendment, under Brandenburg v. Ohio, protects even radical activism unless it’s aimed at imminent lawless action. Daydreaming on Zoom about a Third Continental Congress is not a crime. These are careful people, and they built their plan to stay right inside the legal part. Sure, they conspire to overthrow the government, talk about the ‘red lines,’ and write the memos, but they let someone else do the actual crossing.

That’s how color revolutions work. But prepare for irony. The left already rewrote the rulebook. Here comes the boomerang again. Duck! You are going to love this part.

🔥 Remember special counsel Jack Smith, the weird-looking lawyer leftists love? When he went after Trump, he faced the same problem: alleged insurrectionary behavior without violence. So Smith helpfully indicted the former president under 18 U.S.C. § 241 (conspiracy against rights) and § 371 (conspiracy to defraud the United States). Neither statute requires a single act of violence.

Smith was thrown out for being unconstitutionally appointed before his legal theory could be tested. But the theory was that coordinating a plan to declare an election illegitimate and encouraging state officials to act on it was itself the crime of insurrection— even though Trump was never involved in or encouraged any violence. (He actually discouraged it.)

I’m sure the Democracy Renewal Group’s members remember this theory well, since at the time they cheered prosecutor Smith on till they were hoarse. Not just them. Behold! In August, 2023, the New York Times platformed Smith’s creative legal theory as so smart:

The op-editors crisply deemed it “smart lawyering,” and even described the way Smith charged Trump as beautiful:

There was more. Virtually all of corporate media swooned over Jack Smith’s cleverness. No adjective was spared! Here’s Slate’s August 2023 headline, calling Smith’s charges a “masterstroke”:

And finally, MS NOW (then MSNBC) surpassed those with the “incredibly savvy simplicity of Jack Smith’s latest Trump indictment.” Not just savvy. Incredibly savvy. This embarrassing effort was penned by none less than Norm Eisen himself, who served as the House Democrat’s special counsel during Trump’s first impeachment, and currently runs a giant lawfare shop boasting more than 250 legal cases against the Trump Administration.

So it’s going to be very hard for them to complain if the DOJ deploys the “smart,” “beautiful,” and “savvy” Jack Smith standard against all the folks involved in the group that just admitted it is getting up to stuff ten times worse than whatever Trump was accused of doing.

In other words, DataRepublican has exposed a network that drafts an “options memo” for governors to “wall off” a lawfully elected federal government, pitches it to at least three identified governors, and stands up a “war room” for election night.

It all looks remarkably like what Jack Smith called a seditious conspiracy when he charged a former president.

Beyond Jack Smith’s “smart” theory, the Insurrection Act (10 U.S.C. § 253) doesn’t require any actual riots either. It covers any “unlawful combination, or conspiracy” that obstructs federal law, which is a fair description of governors refusing federal authority and making treaties with foreign governments. This reminds us of the Constitution’s Article I, Section 10, which bars states from making “any Agreement or Compact… with a foreign Power” without Congress’s consent, and the plan’s “outreach to foreign governments” looks more like sedition than suggestion.

Now, I am a lawyer. But I’m only a commercial litigator. I’m not a DOJ prosecutor who has to bring a case. I could be missing something. But it is beyond my ability to understand how President Trump could be charged as an insurrectionist for holding a rally, but not these conspirators. And the former military members, who remain subject to military justice, might have even bigger problems (I’m looking at you, Admiral Smith, and your googly Sanpaku eyes).

In short: they might want to lawyer up.

Thus, while all this is undoubtedly a wake-up call that demands close attention, it is also a massive success to celebrate. It proves Trump and DOGE badly damaged the deep state and its progressive allies— and removed them from their much more dangerous position inside government.

In one fell blow, DataRepublican has sent the conspirators back to their electronic drawing boards.

It almost seems unfair. One deaf software engineer from Utah spoiled the careful plans of 300 ex-USAID color revolutionaries, a 1,600-member flag-officer network, the Democratic Socialists of America, and the Washington Post’s anonymous sources— all in under a week. And consider this— Data now says she has thousands more transcripts and videos. I wonder what else could be buried in there.

Finally, and as a nifty segue from yesterday’s post, in classic Scooby-Doo fashion, DataRepublican just tore the mask off the villain, showing the audience that Admiral Smith (Ret.) isn’t actually a terrifying monster. He’s just an angry old man with a bad spray tan and weird eyeballs.

Right in time for Halloween, too." .......

Cutting the Cutters

via FloridaFredOutWest: 

Charges DROPPED in First Federal Genital Mutilation Case in US--Break Free Media:

“When Westerners remain silent out of ‘respect’ for foreign cultures, they show support only for the most conservative elements of those cultures.” – Mona Eltahawy

Meet Dr. Fakhruddin Attar and Dr. Jumana Nagarwala. In 2017, charges of performing FGM on young girls were brought against these two Detroit doctors. However, the charges were dropped as it was ruled Congress did not have the right to criminalize the practice of FGM.

Yes, you read that right.

What is especially shocking is that the clinic where federal prosecutors say up to 100 girls had female genital cutting performed on them is still open at a new location.

Judge Bernard Friedman threw out the main charges in 2018. He ruled the federal FGM law unconstitutional because Congress had no power under the Commerce Clause to ban what he called a local criminal assault.

“Congress overstepped its bounds by legislating to prohibit [female genital mutilation],” Friedman wrote, calling it a “local criminal activity” for the states to regulate, not Congress.

In 2017, Michigan enacted MCL 333.9159, part of the Michigan Public Health Code, which prohibits cutting, removing, or sewing closed any part of a girl’s or woman’s external genitals for non‑medical reasons. The question then remains as to why Michigan hasn’t done anything about these two doctors.

Indeed, state prosecutors never filed charges, and the Michigan licensing board took no action. Both doctors simply renewed their unrestricted licenses and went back to practicing." .......

It’s telling that Pervert Judges, Pervert Muslims and Pervert Democrats all LOVE to carve on children’s genitals.

Michigan is run by a coven of CIA-Installed Witches. That’s not name-calling–simply accurate. In Massachusetts and elsewhere, the monstrous governor claims the Right to seize a healthy child from good parents to sexually mutilate them. The plan is to maim them permanently before the child can outgrow the brainwashing and manipulation. Bonus: Big Pharma Profit$ for Life!

The Federal Code is full of “local crimes”. Robbing a bank is a local crime. And certainly laws against ALL forms of spaying, neutering and disfiguring children are covered under our actual Constitutional Civil Rights.

President Trump and Congress made the “local law” of underage smoking a federal law, judging that even 20 year-olds were too young to decide. Yet many of the same politicians say young children can give meaningful consent to never having children and wrecking their bodies for the Hellish Agendas of sick, twisted adults?

When states refuse to protect vulnerable children from Official Predators, the Feds must step in.

Father, Son and Holy Spirit, these precious children are made in Your image, and as Your Body we bind this Perverted Spirit of Child Mutilation and loose the Spirit of Liberty on the captives today, in Jesus’ Mighty Name, Amen!

Matthew 19:4

“Haven’t you read the Scriptures?” Jesus replied. “They record that from the beginning ‘God made them male and female.’”

@CynicalPublius

"As many of you know, in recent days Data Republican has been releasing transcripts, videos and audio recordings of a group of groups plotting to use violence to force President Trump to take protective actions (i.e., the Insurrection Act) that will result in the overthrow of our Constitution in favor of the will of Democrat governors. These groups include former USAID employees and other ex-national security officials, and the plans they discuss are straight out of the color revolution tactics, techniques and procedures those same people have been using for decades to overthrow foreign governments unfriendly to the USA. This is the biggest news story in decades, right? Yet no one in the mainstream media will touch it. Except to defend it. See the below headline from today’s Washington Post (I’ll link to the full article below). The plotters behind this effort are obviously alarmed by the recent public uncovering of their conspiracy, so they have done what any reputable Democrat determined to overthrow the electoral choices of the American people would do: run to a friendly press outlet to drop a soft-pedaled puff piece to run top cover for their efforts, and blame Trump. If you read this article, it does not talk about a coup conspiracy. Instead it talks about a bunch of well-meaning, patriotic, anonymous ex-national security officials simply trying to protect America from the evil dictator Trump destroying “our democracy.” This article itself is straight out of the color revolution tactics—it’s propaganda designed to condition a populace to accept illegitimate actions. The Washington Post is part of the plot. Stay frosty, friends. This will get worse before it gets better.

The most important thing about this WaPo article is how it confirms the existence of the plot that DR has been unveiling.

It's concrete confirmation of the highest order.

The Color Revolution in Our Midst

"America is currently in the midst of a color revolution designed to overthrow our Constitutional form of government. The only way to stop it is awareness.

(This is going to be a lengthy article, but please bear with me because I believe we all need to understand what is happening in the shadows.)

If you are not already aware of the treasure trove* of seditionist materials that @DataRepublican has uncovered, please stop now and review them, or at least listen to this audio describing the seditionist plot in the seditionists’ own words. Please come back to this article after you listen.

****************

Are you back?

Great, thanks.

THAT, friends, is what a color revolution sounds like.

However, if we are all going to fight this rebellion with our own words and deeds, we need the knowledge to be able to spot exactly what the fight looks like. To that end, I am writing this article to educate American patriots on what a color revolution actually is, what its key strategies consist of, and how those strategies relate to what we are seeing being unleashed in the USA today.

What is a Color Revolution?

Wikipedia defines a “color revolution” as follows:

“[Color revolutions] are a series of often non-violent protests and accompanying (attempted or successful) changes of government and society taking place in post-Soviet states (particularly Georgia, Ukraine, and Kyrgyzstan) and the former Yugoslavia during the 21st century. The aim of the color revolutions is to establish Western-style democracies. They were primarily triggered by election results widely viewed as falsified. The color revolutions are marked by the use of the internet as a method of communication, as well as a strong role of non-governmental organizations [(“NGOs”)] in the protests.”

USAID and the CIA were instrumental in fomenting the color revolutions in Serbia (the “Bulldozer Revolution,” 2000), Georgia (the “Rose Revolution,” 2003), Ukraine (the “Orange Revolution,” 2004-2005), Kyrgyzstan (the “Tulip Revolution,” 2005), Lebanon (the “Cedar Revolution”, 2005), Belarus (the “Jeans Revolution,” 2006), Ukraine again (the “Revolution of Dignity,” 2013-2014) and Armenia (the “Velvet Revolution,” 2018). These are only the ones we know about publicly, and there are also suspicions that similar U.S. governmental actions took place in the “Arab Spring” of 2010 to 2012.

While the main government players in all of this on the U.S. side were the CIA and USAID, “non-profit” NGOs like the National Endowment for Democracy (“NED,” directly congressionally funded), the National Democratic Institute (“NDI,” funded by grants from USAID, the Department of State and NED), the International Republican Institute (“IRI,” similarly funded by grants from USAID, the Department of State and NED), Freedom House (also similarly funded by grants from USAID, the Department of State and NED), and a plethora of other NGOs (many funded by George Soros’s infamous Open Society network) have done most of the dirty work.

Understanding the role of NGOs in all of this is crucial—NGOs provide a way for U.S. taxpayer dollars to fund foreign policy actions that are difficult to track and often run counter to the intent of a majority of American voters.

These NGOs all have one thing in common—they are all vocally dedicated to “protecting democracy.” However, when examining their track record of fomenting revolution, it’s arguable that many of the regimes they overthrew were, in fact, democratically elected (at least to standards no more corrupt than America’s 2020 Presidential election). This is particularly true with respect to the Revolution of Dignity and the overthrow of Ukraine’s democratically-elected President, Viktor Yanukovych. Far be it for me to uphold ex-Soviet oligarchs, but it appears that the devotion of these NGOs to “democracy” is actually to “democracies we approve of.”

We will come back to the NGOs.

How Do Color Revolutions Work?

There are numerous academic treatises on the features of color revolutions, but my personal research suggests that they rely upon six lines of attack:

1. Funding.

Those U.S. NGOs you see listed above operate by funding other NGOs and individuals inside the targeted nation. Dark U.S. money becomes even darker money inside the targeted nation. These organizations build parallel structures that can operate outside national control and coordinate/sustain protest capacity at a tightly-organized, high level.

2. Training.

The well-funded NGOs and individuals then engage in highly structured activist training programs. Often pyramidal in nature (i.e., “train the trainers”), these programs cover branding, the processing of parallel vote counts, actions that erode the legitimacy of existing governmental institutions and maintaining ostensibly nonviolent discipline to maximize activist legitimacy.

3. Narrative and Symbolism.

The narrative of government illegitimacy must be pushed and repeated over and over and over. Complicit media sources are essential to creating and sustaining this narrative (often with cash changing hands to publish a particular story). Very basic symbolism is also vital. The name “color revolution” itself refers to the use of an inspiring color to unify the activists and present a constant reminder of the surge of activism engulfing the country via clothing, signs and banners—the “Orange Revolution” is a perfect example. Logos, slogans, hashtags and similarly pithy symbolic expressions are essential in delegitimizing the targeted regime and present regime change as the only “democratic” outcome.

4. Electoral Trigger.

A big part of the dark money is used to deploy “independent” election monitors, create fake pre-election polling and fake exit polling, and rapidly publicize perceived “irregularities” to create a clear trigger for mass protests. NGO networks then convert the disputed vote into sustained mass street action. While the architects of color revolutions consistently highlight the “non-violent” nature of their protests, certain groups are designated to engage in covert (i.e., masked) violent action, and other groups are essentially sent to the slaughter in hopes that the government will violently crack down and create martyrs. (Although this name pre-dates color revolutions, such deliberate martyrdom is what I call the “Horst Wessel Strategy.”)

5. Elite pressure.

This is the process of relying on outside agents of high legitimacy to create public statements of support for the protestors and activists, create targeted sanctions or incentives for the current government to step down, and to quietly engage with military, bureaucratic, and business elites in the targeted government. The aim is to isolate the current government internationally and signal that cooperation with the old regime carries higher costs than accommodation with the protesters.

6. Defection of Security Forces and Military.

One of the main purposes of all of the above is to convince a nation’s military and security/police forces that they are a part of an illegitimate regime and that the only moral choice is to defect to the opposition. Ramping up violent protests such that these people must choose between firing on their own countrymen or defecting is a fundamental tenet of color revolutions, supposed “non-violent” practices notwithstanding. In high-trust societies where the military is well-respected, this is perhaps the most important tool in the color revolutionary’s tool box. When the military and police defect, the color revolution is over, and it wins.

These are the tools the U.S. government and its well-funded network of NGOs have been using for decades to foment the overthrow of disfavored national governments, all without approval or knowledge of the electorate. Then Donald Trump dismantled USAID, and it all stopped.

Or did it? All those ex-USAID employees had to go find something to do, and boy oh boy did they ever.

Our American Color Revolution

Hopefully by now you are already seeing the parallels between our overseas color revolutions and what we are seeing and experiencing in the USA in 2026.

USAID? Note how many of the videos and audios that @DataRepublican posted involve ex-USAID employees who know their color revolution toolbox cold.

NGOs? All of the actions @DataRepublican has uncovered involve NGOs with specific, compartmentalized, plausibly deniable roles: the United Democracy Alliance; 50501; Indivisible; National Security Leaders for America (this one is particularly troubling as it has ~1,600 former military, intelligence and State Department officials behind it); and many more. Some are still relying on funding they derived from U.S. taxpayers before President Trump shut it all down. George Soros funds many of them. Foreign power funding? Maybe—money laundering is a thing.

It’s the NGOs.

It’s always the NGOs.

Democracy? Sure, sure, sure. Those NGO plotters are all there to “protect our democracy.” In reality, they are there to overthrow any democratically-elected American they disapprove of, just like happened to some of the democratically-elected regimes we overthrew off our shores. To these people, “democracy” means the right of unelected bureaucrats and well-funded NGOs to control our national destiny. In reality, “democracy” is the very last thing they want.

As to the color revolution toolbox, the similarities to what we are seeing now are simply undeniable:

Funding? Do I even need to explain this one? The NGOs fomenting insurrection in the USA are incredibly well-funded, many by George Soros’ network.

Training? Since 2020 we have seen so many examples of training programs for Antifa and similar groups, all NGO funded. These training programs are designed to train protestors on how to effectively foment civil unrest and, at times, violence. For example, Indivisible’s “One Million Rising” project focuses on training to be able to analyze “pillars of support” for the Trump Administration (business, labor, faith, civil service, law enforcement, etc.) and tactics to weaken them. Specific examples include pressuring local sheriffs not to cooperate with ICE, “Signs of Solidarity” campaigns targeting businesses, and sustained local campaigns against lawful Trump Administration actions. Sign-up language for such training has included “Let’s get organized. Let’s stop Trump." Indivisible materials state the goal of mobilizing people “to defeat MAGA” and disrupt policy through noncooperation and active protest. (This effort has received up to $7,600,000 in Soros funding, by the way.)

Narrative and Symbolism? Again, do I really need to elaborate? The legacy media cannot report on election integrity without stating that Donald Trump’s complaints about the 2020 election are “baseless.” We are awash in stories about how the Trump Administration’s efforts to ensure election integrity are instead a nefarious plot to steal the midterm elections. Today, the Washington Post—obviously in a hurried and desperate effort to get out in front of the revelations from @DataRepublican—published an anonymously-sourced article favorably describing the coup efforts she uncovered. If you read this article, it does not talk about a coup conspiracy. Instead it talks about a bunch of well-meaning, patriotic, anonymous ex-national security officials simply trying to protect America from the evil dictator Trump destroying “our democracy.” This article itself is straight out of the color revolution toolbox—it is propaganda designed to condition a populace to accept illegitimate actions. The Washington Post is part of the plot. As to symbolism, do “No Kings” and the “Resistance” mean anything to you? Again, these slogans/symbols are straight out of the color revolution toolbox.

Electoral Trigger? When you listen to the videos and audios released by @DataRepublican, the plotters consistently speak of the midterms as being the trigger for action. Again, these ex-USAID diplomats could not possibly speak more clearly in their intent to overthrow the Trump Presidency via the color revolution tactics they learned in Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union. (Oh yeah, as to the trigger creating useful idiot martyrs, do the names Renée Good and Alex Pretti ring a bell?)

Elite Pressure? While we see European Union nations constantly decrying Trump—which is actually part of the plot—the twist in a domestic color revolution is that the elite pressure will come directly from Democrat governors. The uncovered plot relies on the idea that rampant street protests will result in a crisis in legitimacy via Trump needing to invoke the Insurrection Act, such that Democrat and RINO governors declare themselves the only legitimate U.S. authority, up to and including reaching out to foreign powers for recognition. (Geez, that kind of feels like the Confederacy asking Queen Victoria to acknowledge their sovereignty, doesn’t it?) The final step here will be to overthrow the Constitution as we know it—they said so.

Defection of Security Forces and Military? This is another one I feel like I really do not need to explain. Seditious Six, anyone? This feature of the domestic color revolution has been in plain sight for quite some time. Our nation's survival really depends on this not working. Given the institutional resistance to Department of War reforms from some of the senior military brass and the cabal of senior, unelected bureaucrats in the Senior Executive Service who have trashed their oaths via passive resistance to the electoral will of the American people, this is a real issue of concern. If the plotters can turn some of the generals and bureaucrats actively against their Commander-in-Chief, we are in real trouble. Fortunately, I think this is the weak point of the plot and why it will ultimately fail. Our military ranks are still filled almost totally with patriots who will honor their oath to the Constitution.

The plot is afoot. It’s real. It’s here. A color revolution is currently being attempted in the USA by the same people who so adroitly manipulated the fates of millions of Eastern Europeans and Central Asians some twenty years ago.

What Can We Do?

My X feed is awash with concerned patriots asking this same question. All of us—everyone of us—can do these three things:

1. Pray.

2. Call your Congressman/woman and Senators and demand an investigation. Light up the switchboards. MAKE THEM pay attention.

3. Tell everyone you know. Make them listen to this shocking audio, if nothing else. The time is past caring if midwit Cousin Susie or face tattoo Nephew Timmy will cut you off because you support our President. Make them listen. The time is late. Our nation and our freedoms are at risk.

One more thing—for some of us, the answer is to be prepared. Most of you know what I mean, I’ll leave it there.

This modern American Gunpowder Plot cannot and will not succeed.

*In case you doubt the veracity of @DataRepublican's materials, here is how she obtained them. Some doofus involved in the plot used an AI agent to record and archive everything that went on, all the way back to 2023, and them stupidly let the agent archive them in a publicly available Google Drive. DR got a tip as to the URL. Further, the man President Trump appointed to play a key role in USAID and shut it down (Pete Marocco) publicly vouched for their authenticity. Here is the link where he said so.

There Was a Secret Coup Plan but then Elissa Slotkin Opened Her Big Mouth

The Federalist–

Slotkin Doubles Down On Threat To Destroy Young GOP Staffers:

Slotkin has a history of calling to jail her political enemies.

Last week, Slotkin said she wanted a tacit threat of personal and professional ruin for any young conservative contemplating working for the Trump administration, stating, “I want to look at these signature cases and not just focus on the president, but on the people who enabled him. I want young people coming out of school to say, ‘Should I go work for the Trump administration? Like that sounds fun. I might get an opportunity.’ I want them to be like, ‘Lord, that might be buying myself a ton of problems that I don’t want, and so let me avoid participating in that.’ I want that deterrence message.”

After she got caught, the CIA Gun Moll tried to clean it up:

"And all I said was that if you've done something illegal, if you've used the government inappropriately and against the law, you should be held accountable.”

That’s a bald-faced lie from a dirty Nazi Skank.

Frau Blucher said young staffers should be given the full-Gestapo treatment for daring to go to work for a duly-three-elected President of the United States.

Like the rest of her Drug and Child Trafficking CIA Election Thieves, she believes in One-Party Rule.

And you’re not in it.

But they are:
