Democrats have been dropping hints out in the open for months about what they'll do if they sweep the midterms. Now @DataRepublican has uncovered the terrifying strategy.

Thousands of internal transcripts and recordings reveal the DSA's operational plan to trigger a "doomsday scenario." They want to manufacture enough street chaos, like we're seeing in France, to force Trump to use the Insurrection Act in 2027. Then, they'll cry "fascism" until they can delegitimize federal authority and hand power to Democratic governors in a color revolution.

THIS IS WHAT THEY’VE ALWAYS BEEN PLANNING. Remember when Susan Rice threatened to hold corporations, law firms, and tech companies that cooperated with Trump "accountable" through subpoenas? And Sen. Elissa Slotkin recently admitted she wants to "scare" young professionals by creating "reputational risk" so nobody wants to serve in a conservative administration. They want to set the country on fire until you have no choice but to yield.

[Riley Gaines @Riley_Gaines_]

Charlie Kirk was murdered for his beliefs and conservative values. Senator Slotkin wants that to be a message of deterrence for young people.

Tell me again who the fascists are...

Obama knew Hillary Clinton’s plan was to falsely tie Donald Trump to Russia in 2016, he greenlit the hoax despite knowing it was a lie.

Here are then CIA Director John Brennan’s own notes proving it:

“Cite alleged approval by Hillary Clinton on 26 July of a proposal from one of her foreign policy advisors to vilify Donald Trump by stirring up a scandal claiming interference from the Russian security services.”

The federal investigation into Ilhan Omar’s finances will find tens of millions of dollars in reported valuations suddenly vanishing, tax troubles with state tax collectors, and companies reportedly taking in a lot of money suddenly collapsing after overstating their business activity. Having covered corporate accounting frauds at the Wall Street Journal, IRS frauds, and the subprime mortgage fraud crisis, it’s an understatement to say something is seriously off.

In May 2025, Omar’s financial disclosures valued her husband Tim Mynett’s stake in Rose Lake Capital at $5M–$25M for calendar year 2024. It began operations in 2022.

She also disclosed in Congressional records the value of his stake in their winery eStCru at $1M–$5M. The winery launched in 2020.

But just a year earlier, she had reported the stake in Rose Lake Capital was worth only $1 to $1K, and eSTCru, $15K-$50K.

Then came a major reversal. Just this year, Omar amended her 2024 and 2025 disclosures on March 26, changing both businesses’ asset values from millions of dollars to
“None.” For 2024, Rose Lake income changed from “None” to $100,001–$1M; eStCru income changed from $5K–$15K to $2,501–$5K. For 2025, Rose Lake income changed to “None” and eSTCru income changed to $201–$1K.

So what was going on at the businesses that were supposedly worth as much as $30M just two years ago?

In November 2024, Rose Lake Inc.’s CEO, William Hailer, reportedly testified in a bankruptcy proceeding that the company had no money, assets or investments. Right as Omar's disclosure valued her husband's stake at up to $25M.

Rose Lake Capital listed its headquarters at 80 M Street SE, Washington, D.C., a WeWork coworking location. There was no visible Rose Lake signage or staff. There are no SEC records that either her husband, his partner, or their investment firm were registered with the SEC as investment advisers. Its website boasted “deep global networks in more than 80 countries” when its D.C. WeWork office shared space with a Walmart operation and the American Trucking Assn.

There was little to no public evidence of real business activity. No verifiable public track record of Rose Lake managing money for investors. No publicly disclosed clients, investment deals, or portfolios identified. Rose Lake’s public website removed the names and bios of its listed officers and advisers amid scrutiny.

Omar’s husband Tim Mynett and his partner had little to no Wall Street experience. They had co-founded a political consultancy, where he helped raise more than $100M for Democrats and worked on Omar’s 2019 re-election.

Her husband’s Rose Lake Inc. had to forfeit its registration in Delaware in 2024 for failing to pay the state a big $403K in back taxes, and for having no registration agent. This was right as Omar was claiming in her disclosures his stake was worth up to $25M from less than $1K a year before. How does a firm that is supposedly valued at that sum not able to pay its taxes?

And Washington, D.C. also had cancelled its registration for Rose Lake Capital LLC, too, for failure to pay reportedly just $1,770 in back taxes. Another inconsistency: the Delaware entity is Rose Lake Inc., but Omar discloses it as Rose Lake Capital LLC.

As for his winery where Omar suddenly valued his stake at $5M in 2024 up from $15K-50K just a year prior - there were wines marketed online, but no signs of a functioning winery facility, tasting room, or production operations at the supposed address.

An investor had sued Mynett and his partner alleging they promised to triple his investment in the winery to $900K from $300K, but failed to deliver returns. He claimed in his suit “there is no legitimate business there.” The dispute was reportedly settled in November 2024. eStCru was subsequently dissolved in California in April 2026. #news #News @IlhanMN @GOPoversight @OversightDems @DHSgov @IRS_CI #BreakingNews‌ @AP @Reuters @EveningEdit @FoxBusiness @FoxNews @JudgeJeanine @CBSNews @ABC

🚨THEY FILLED THE CAR WITH BALLOTS… AND SAID WHO WAS DOING IT

James O’Keefe’s undercover cameras caught it cold.

A ballot harvester in Minnesota shows the trunk and dashboard packed:
“You can see my car is full. All these here are absentee ballots. Can’t you see? Look at all these. My car is full.”

300 in one haul.

When asked who fills them out: “People who work with Ilhan and other candidates… they work for them.”

Cash changes hands. Elders get visited. Blank or open ballots leave the building. Minnesota law limits how many you can carry. Federal law bans the pay-to-vote scheme. None of it mattered.

This is the same machine still fighting every single effort to require citizenship proof and clean the rolls. The same people who call election security “disenfranchisement.”

They never stopped. They just got quieter about the receipts.

Pass the SAVE Act.
Clean the rolls.
End the harvest.

What liberals don’t realize about Christopher Columbus is that he wouldn’t have had to sail the ocean blue in 1492 if the Muslims hadn’t conquered Constantinople 40 years earlier, cutting off the land trade routes to Asia.

So, don’t blame Columbus for discovering the New World or cast any of your prissy white privilege problems onto him. Blame the Ottoman Empire.

Dear Secretary Bessent @SecScottBessent,

My name is Everett Stern. In 2010 I was a compliance officer at @HSBC. From a back office in New Castle, Delaware, I watched billions of dollars move to drug cartels, sanctioned regimes, and terrorist organizations. The enemies of the United States. I documented it, I escalated it, and when the bank would not act, I took it to the @FBI, the @CIA, and eventually the @SECGov.

The result was a $1.92 billion settlement. At the time, it was one of the largest in American history. It was also about five weeks of the bank’s profit. Not one banker was charged. Not one went to prison.

I paid a different price. I lost my career, my savings, and my place in the industry I had trained for. I was blacklisted. Every door in American finance closed at once. I slept on a camping cot in a 300 square foot apartment because I could not afford a bed, and I waited tables at @PFChangs to eat. I tell you this not for sympathy, but so you understand that I know exactly what it costs to do the right thing in American finance, and exactly how little the system does in return.

I made that sacrifice because I believed it would change something.

Yesterday, your department fined @BankofAmerica $1.2 billion for failing to report more than $5 billion in suspicious transactions, some of it tied by your own findings to Chinese laundering networks, narcotics, and the southwest border, alongside 475 apparent sanctions violations touching Russia, Iran, and global terrorism. The bank admitted it willfully violated the Bank Secrecy Act.

Fourteen years after HSBC. A bank with “America” in its name. And once again, not one individual charged.

Secretary Bessent, I want to say plainly what I believe you already know. The fines are not working.

A fine is paid by shareholders, absorbed by the balance sheet, and forgotten by the next earnings call. Bank of America reported earnings this morning. Nobody who set the alert thresholds, nobody who decided the 2024 cease and desist could wait, nobody who chose the backlog over the law will lose a single thing they value. Their lives are untouched. That is the entire reason the behavior repeats.

This is money laundering. This is blood money. Money that reaches a cartel buys fentanyl that kills Americans. Money that reaches a terrorist organization buys the next attack. This country has fought a war on drugs and a war on terror for decades, at enormous cost in lives and treasure, and all the while we have allowed the financing to flow through institutions we charter and regulate. Cut off the money and we win. We have never seriously tried.

There is also a question of equal justice that I cannot let go.

Before I walked into the FBI building to report HSBC, I stopped in front of the Great Seal on the wall and read the words engraved beneath it: “Justice is the defense of our liberty.” I believed that. I still want to. But every day in this country, people go to prison for crimes that are nothing next to moving money for the people who want Americans dead. A suit, a title, and a corporate badge should not be a shield from the consequences that apply to everyone else. If a street dealer goes to prison for what he sells, the banker who moved the cartel’s money should be standing next to him.

I also want to raise something that is rarely said in these conversations. Why has no one inside Bank of America come forward the way I did? The answer is that everyone in American banking knows what happened to me, and to the whistleblowers who came after. The last person who spoke up is the only policy anyone believes. That is a culture problem, and it starts with leadership, in the banks and in the agencies that regulate them.

This is not a political issue. It has spanned administrations of both parties. It is a national security issue, and I am asking you to treat it as one.

Three things would change the math overnight.

Refer individuals for criminal prosecution. Not the analyst in the queue. The executives who set the thresholds and chose the risk. One banker in handcuffs would do more than every fine in Treasury’s history combined.

End “too big to jail.” An institution cannot be too big to fail and too big to jail at the same time. If it is the first, it must be held to a higher standard, not a lower one.

And if Bank of America will not act as America’s bank, review its charter. A national charter is a privilege granted on behalf of the American people. It should be conditioned on not moving money for the people trying to kill them.

Secretary Bessent, you said yesterday that these actions send a clear message that even the biggest institutions are not above the law. With respect, the institution was never the problem. The people inside it are above the law, and they know it. Until that changes, I will keep writing letters like this one, and the next bank will keep paying the next fine.

I gave up everything I had to stop this. I am asking you to use the power you have to finish it.

Respectfully,

Everett A. Stern
