If you are like me, you probably are wondering why Trump and the GOP members of Congress have been mostly silent over the uncovering of the Color Revolution plot.
I have some theories.

P.S., some of the hyperlinks have Easter eggs, have fun. (Don't worry, none of the links go to virus-ridden "Buy Ukrainian brides with crypto" sites.)
@TamTrindade@marceelias Right now publishing it on 𝕏, working with a couple of outlets, figuring out how to aggregate them online. It's not like I can dump them all out legally Wikipedia-style. @GrumpyTechBro has some AI analysis already:

🚨🚨 THE ILLEGITIMACY PLAYBOOK / THE DEMOCRACY FILES, PART 6: THE 3.5% RULES RECEIPTS 🚨
As requested by @monicaonairtalk - here are the receipts on the influence of Erica Chenoweth and 3.5% rule. 9 minutes of various participants referencing the 3.5% rule.
One other thing about the American Color Revolution.
I'm hearing a lot of very sober conservatives saying that there is no there there in the various videos from the @DataRepublican drops, and that these people are LARPers fantasizing about events that can never, ever happen in the USA.
I have two rebuttals to that sentiment:
1. These are serious people. Ex-USAID employees. Admirals and generals. Ex-State Department. Ex-CIA. Big donors. While some of them may look like goofy LARPers on Zoom, IRL they are serious, highly credentialed leftists with skills, education and experience that should not be taken lightly.
2. Underestimate these people at your own peril. "They could never pull this off in the USA!" Oh really? Exhibit A that they absolutely could pull something this extreme off is how they crippled the Trump 45 Presidency with a totally fake, totally fabricated "Trump/Russia Collusion" hoax, a hoax that started at the Oval Office of Mr. Community Organizer himself, Barack Obama.
Do not underestimate these plotters, please.
I love how Ilhan Omar married her brother, Elissa Slotkin is calling for the imprisonment of Trump admin officials, and Deep State bureaucrats are planning a coup, and all the Democrats can respond with is “Lindsey Graham was gay.”
15 of 15 New York Social Adult Daycares audited yesterday showed no record of a single meal, activity, or hour of supervision — just attendance sheets.
These daycares are receiving millions from our Medicaid system and providing NOTHING in return —this is FRAUD!
🚨🚨 THE ILLEGITIMACY PLAYBOOK / THE DEMOCRACY FILES: A PRIMER 🚨
I will be using this thread to track all drops, so bookmark it.
I spent most of yesterday backing everything (now 312 gigabytes) up in various sources and getting the materials out to others. I also produced an AI video (below) to explain the whole thing to others are not on 𝕏 - feel free to distribute.
Here's the primer:
USAID, the foreign aid agency, had a democracy office. Inside the agency, it was called DRG.
Officially, DRG administered "democracy assistance." They'd go inside countries they thought were sliding into authoritarianism and help the opposition there. That assistance included election monitoring, judicary support, independent media, and civil society building.
You may have heard the term "color revolution." The model comes from Serbia in 2000, where trained student activists brought down Milosevic with the help of Western governments, after sustained protests. With the help of USAID's democracy office, this model was implemented in many other countries to topple governments: Georgia's "Rose Revolution" in 2003, Ukraine's "Orange Revolution" in 2004, and many more.
Then last year, DOGE shut down USAID. But the USAID democracy office didn't stop. They formed a group called the Democracy Renewal Group, the same initials as their office (USAID Democracy, Human Rights, Governance). Their goal: apply their own playbook to the United States itself.
This goal became a plan, called Renew American Democracy (RAD). It invoked the "4 B's" framework. Block - use lawfare and protests to make life harder for the Trump administration. Bridge & Belong - control dialogue and win people over. The final and most important B is Build. Build means redesigning the American government itself, and the crisis is the opening.
In their own words:
"We can take that breakdown moment and leverage it for a big structural reform, you know, refounding moment." - Danielle Reiff, DRG lead.
Calls show DRG working alongside DSA on ideas of creating a different government, one that does away with the Constitution itself.
DRG does not run the Block operations. They hand it to UDA, the United Democracy Alliance. One organizer calls it a "huge galaxy": lawsuits, street protests, non-cooperation. They list No Kings, Indivisible, MoveOn, 50501, and many other mega-activist NGOs among their members.
Another organizer calls UDA Erica Chenoweth's project. Chenoweth is the Harvard professor behind the three-and-half-percent rule of regime change: get that share of a country's populace onto the streets, and historically, the movement wins.
The UDA is very "hush-hush." They have no website, no roster, no filings.
Then come the red lines: things the Trump administration could do, such as calling the Insurrection Act on protesters, that would mean that the federal government, in their words, "crosses the threshold into illegitimacy." Nobody voted on those lines. There was no public debate. These red lines were developed within secretive working groups, and in a paper addressed to governors and staff.
In the words of Reiff/DRG:
"So that if there is a red line crossed in terms of a Constitutional crisis, like everyone's already pre-organized. And so Mike Smith actually said, he goes, oh, you guys have the day after tomorrow plan."
Cross a line, and the paper's options include states refusing to lend their resources to federal officials, and governors convening what it calls a "Third Continential Congress."
Running the UDA's Insurrection Act working group: Rear Admiral Mike Smith (RET) of National Security Leaders of America (NSL4A). NSL4A is also credited with operationalizing UDA, the blocking operations. NSL4A consists of about 1,600 ex-officers, spies, diplomats. They're turning red lines into indicators and running a situation room to monitor them throughout the midterms and beyond.
The NSL4A's lawyers told them to stop recording meetings in case of subpoenas. But the rest of the network continued to record. DRG works in conjunction with Renew to Thrive (R2T), which ended up accidentally publishing 400+ calls and thousands of documents. These calls and documents were never meant for our eyes, but it's them, on tape.
Thousands of NGOs and billions of dollars are involved in this endeavor. Most of them believe they're saving democracy. The problem is that people who spent their careers deciding when other countries' governments had lost their legitimacy wrote that test for ours, in private, and planned for what comes after.
Who decides when your government is legitimate?
I’ve been sounding the alarms that the polls are WRONG—and new evidence of that is now piling up!
Polling organizations are being forced to admit they are dramatically under-sampling Republican support, but the media is delighted to use it all to depress GOP turnout. We can’t let that happen!
Today, the Wedgewood scandal—where they’ve admitted it was “far too easy” to produce and spread completely fake polling data—adds an even darker element with enormous implications.
**IGNORE THE POLLS, and GO VOTE! 🇺🇸🇺🇸 We have 13 days to SAVE AMERICA!**
As I did the research for the below article, the thing that struck me was how often the NGOs behind the plot stress “non-violence” as a key tenet of the what they do and the massive protests they organize.
At the same time, none of their plans will work without violence. To create their desired “crisis of legitimacy” that would cause America to decide Trump was no longer a lawful President and that Democrat governors were the new form of national governance, massive violence would be absolutely necessary. Such violence would come either in the form of another wave of our cities burning or a Kent State-like event x100 where police or the military created martyrs en masse.
They say “non-violence,” yet none of their plans work without violence.
I have decided this is a massive, fraudulent, plausible deniability kind of thing. It’s the wink-wink, nudge-nudge of Monty Python. They say non-violence, but they know they are creating violence anyway and they are OK with that.
It’s massively disingenuous. They know they are fomenting violence. However, they also know that most of what they do (organizing, teaching, etc.) is not illegal unless and until they conspire to engage in violence, so they pretend they are not.
Wink-wink, nudge-nudge.
Every American needs to be aware of what @DataRepublican has uncovered👇🏻
The media cartel may ignore or minimize it, but the American people must not be kept in the dark on something like this
@X gives us the ability to spread the word, even if the media cartel refuses to do so
This is not even real… a group of retired admirals, ex-USAID bureaucrats and professional protest organizers got caught on their own recordings working out the conditions under which they get to declare the government of the United States illegitimate, and somehow we are supposed to believe they are the ones protecting democracy.
Here is what @DataRepublican put out in Part 2 of the Democracy Files. The videos come from a group called Renew to Thrive, with Danielle Reiff and Paul Zeitz in key roles, and it sits inside a much bigger umbrella called the United Democracy Alliance, which she describes as the hush-hush control room for groups like 50501 and Indivisible, deciding when protests get deployed, the timelines and how to respond. National Security Leaders for America, 1,600 former military, intelligence and diplomatic officials led by retired Rear Admiral Michael E. Smith, is credited with operationalizing the whole thing. On tape they lay out a list of "redlines," and invoking the Insurrection Act against "peaceful" protesters is one of the most discussed… and as she lays it out, they shopped the idea around to governors who don't even have to sign anything, all a governor has to do is refuse federal troops and let the network do the rest.
Make no mistake about who Mike Smith is. His own organization's bio says he founded and led National Security Leaders for Biden, more than 1,100 members with an endorsement letter signed by 780 of them, and now he runs a "non partisan" group that just cares so deeply about the oath. But hey… I am sure it is totally nonpartisan this time.
And the very same morning the Washington Post runs a story about a small group of current and former Defense Department officials quietly advising governors, election officials and lawmakers in 10 states on how to prepare for the Trump administration "interfering" in the midterms, rehearsing what to do if a federal agent asks for access to ballots or machines. Different names, same message… the elected federal government is the threat, and the people who run the elections are the ones who need protecting from it.
Let me put it to you like this. They are building the excuse before the event even happens. They coordinate the protests, they decide in advance which government response crosses their line, and then they hold that response up as proof the whole government is illegitimate and the governors should take over. How exactly is that defending the Constitution? If a room full of retired conservative officers got caught on tape role playing how to declare a Democrat president illegitimate, the FBI would be knocking on doors before the coffee got cold and every network in the country would run it wall to wall.
I am angry about this, and I think most of you are not angry enough. These people swore an oath to the Constitution, not to a party, and they are treating the legitimacy of an elected government like a privilege they get to revoke the minute the voters pick somebody they don't like. As DataRepublican puts it, almost any effective pushback against their NGOs counts as illegitimate in their book. Where is the outrage from the people who spent five years lecturing you about threats to democracy?
Admiral Smith, Ms. Reiff, Dr. Zeitz… release every recording in full and explain to the American people, under oath, exactly what you were planning for the day after.
One of the latest internal videos uncovered by @DataRepublican from the DSA's "Democratic Constitution Forum" meeting features a former USAID diplomat... GO FIGURE!
Danielle Reiff spent 20 years managing "democratic transitions" in places like South Sudan. AND NOW she’s sitting in strategy sessions with the DSA, openly talking about using a "crisis of legitimacy" during the midterms as a "window of opportunity" to force a complete transformation of our system.
It looks like after DOGE dismantled USAID's slush funds, these regime-change operatives simply funneled themselves right into radical groups like the DSA. And honestly, why wouldn't they? USAID spent decades perfecting THIS EXACT color revolution strategy in foreign countries. Now, they're just bringing the same playbook home to use on us.
This seditionist plot that @DataRepublican has uncovered and documented with ironclad proof is potentially the biggest political news story of any of our lifetimes, and the legacy media is completely incurious about it.
Worse, the Washington Post is running front page top cover for the plotters' nefarious scheme.
You think you hate journalists enough....
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.
WE AUDITED ALL 58 FOREIGN-BORN FEDERAL JUDGES SITTING ON AMERICA'S BENCH FOR LIFE.
I spent over a billion tokens and about 45 days on this deep dive.
Through this deep dive and the over a million court cases we have combed through, we have launched an American First Index (AFI) for the site. (More on it as we improve the metrics and refine deeper.)
Out of 58 sitting foreign-born Article III judges, 43 were appointed by Biden or Obama. Among those drawn from ACLU and public defender pipelines, border enforcement is blocked over 80% of the time and 60% of criminal sentences fall below federal guidelines.
We have added an interactive tool on bench receipts that allows you to drill down and look at how each of these judges behave on the bench.
This is just the start. The federal judges are easier to identify than the state level judges. I assume there are 100s if not 1000+ foreign born or first-gen American on our benches.
They do not judge on our laws, they judge on the culture they came from. This is a huge reason our country has lost its identity.
