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.
🚨🚨THE DEMOCRACY FILES, PART 2: WHEN AND HOW TO DECLARE THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT ILLEGITIMATE 🚨
Some questioned whether a group of 200 ex-USAID officials could actually pull off their ambitions to rewrite the Constitution.
Here, they describe exactly how it works. They aren't working alone.
The videos all come from Renew to Thrive (R2T) group and associates. Danielle Reiff and Paul Zeitz play key roles within R2T.
R2T sits inside a much, much larger umbrella called United Democracy Alliance (UDA), which is an extremely hush-hush control plane of leaders from major "blocking" NGOs such as 50501 and Indivisible fulfilling various functions. UDA decides when protests get deployed, timelines, how to respond, all that.
R2T's role within UDA is concerned with "the day after tomorrow" - in other words, their function is to conceive what a rewritten American government will look like after the rest of UDA fulfills its purpose. As will be shown, Erica Chenoworth is credited with conceiving UDA in the first place under the Horizons "Big Tent" initiative.
Note here that National Security Leaders for America (NSL4A) is credited for operationalizing UDA. NSL4A is a group of 1,600 ex-military, intelligence, and diplomatic officials. They are led by Rear Admiral Michael E. Smith (Ret). NSL4A also played a key role in the "illegal orders" messaging which targeted Pete Hegseth. Zeitz is also a member of NSL4A.
It must be emphasized that the choice of a military-oriented organization to coordinate NGOs across domestic protests is an interesting one all in itself - especially in an umbrella conceived by a regime change expert like Chenoworth.
You will have a hard time finding any mentions of UDA in the public. They are extremely hush-hush and selective who they talk to.
Mike Smith himself makes a personal appearance in other calls, coordinating Insurrection Act exercises and roleplaying with R2G as one of the participants.
As the audio transcript shows, they have outlined a sequence of "redlines" in which case the federal government should be declared illegitimate. Invoking the Insurrection Act against "peaceful" protesters is one of the most discussed redlines. I will post the illegitimate criteria below, but basically, almost any effective pushback against NGOs is a measure of illegitimacy according to them.
Important to understand:
The audio shows they shopped this idea around governors, but the reality is that governors do not have to explicitly sign on to the pact to play their role in the coup. All they have to do is refuse troops in their state and let UDA / R2G do the work of dissolving the federal government.

🚨 JUST IN: Nick Shirley just dropped this line in the Oval Office flanked by President Trump, and it's PURE GOLD
"I want people to think about what is happening right now...me as a 24-year-old, I went out and exposed the fraud. I just was concerned about the well-being of our tax dollars. And right now, I'm standing next to the President of the United States." 🔥
"There's never been an incentive for anyone to ever expose fraud [until now]...when you expose fraud, you help save America. People understand that these fraudsters take from the poor needy who actually need the services that we all work hard to pay for, and we take that, and they then buy Mercedes!" @nickshirleyy
WELL-DESERVED FOR NICK.
A year ago, legacy media mocked him as a right-wing propagandist
Today he walked into the Oval Office with the first check for exposing fraud that the media IGNORED!!
Camera, microphone and passion for saving America. Let's freaking go.

Vote very carefully or what's happening in France might seem mild in comparison 😳
If these leaked DSA transcripts are real, every American needs to see them before November 3.
According to DataRepublican, thousands of transcripts from private Democratic Socialists of America calls lay out the plan.
Activists as "foot soldiers."
Escalating protests after the midterms.
Pushing toward the Insurrection Act by 2027.
Read that again.
They're not planning to win the argument.
They're planning the chaos.
And these are the people Democrats keep cozying up to.
If true, this is a very serious problem.
It's ALL going to come out.
Vote Red.

The American media never covered what happened beneath the black ice of Hachinohe.
Late March 2011.
Northern Japan was freezing to death.
Millions of survivors in Tohoku had no heat, no electricity, and no gasoline for ambulances.
Giant Japanese fuel tankers loaded with millions of gallons of life-saving oil were waiting offshore.
Why couldn't they dock?
Because the tsunami had turned Hachinohe Port into an underwater minefield.
Massive fishing trawlers, crushed shipping containers, and twisted steel cranes were sunk across the harbor floor.
If a single fuel tanker hit a sunken hull, it would rip open and explode.
The port was dead.
The lifeline to Northern Japan was choked shut.
Enter the salvage ship USNS Safeguard and the divers of US Navy Mobile Diving and Salvage Unit One (MDSU-1).
Do you have any idea what was waiting for them under that water?
Water temperature: 34 degrees Fahrenheit.
Visibility: ZERO. Pitch black.
The harbor was a toxic soup of leaking diesel oil, raw sewage, jagged sheet metal, and drifting fishing nets that could tangle a diver and drown him in seconds.
Civilian salvage companies said it was suicide to dive.
Your Navy divers strapped on heavy lead weights and jumped straight into the black abyss.
Unable to see their own hands in front of their masks, those American boys crawled across the freezing sea floor by touch alone.
Their fingers went numb inside thick rubber gloves as they wrapped heavy steel chains around sunken ships and jagged wreckage in the dark.
Twelve hours a day.
Shivering uncontrollably between dives, drinking hot water just to feel their lips again, and diving right back down.
In days, they hauled 280 cubic yards of lethal steel out of the channel.
They opened the port.
And when the first massive fuel tanker glided safely into Hachinohe to bring heat to a million freezing Japanese families, your divers stood on the icy deck, covered in black grease, cheering like kids.
No cameras were watching at the bottom of that freezing harbor.
They risked drowning in the dark so our children wouldn't freeze in the night.
Happy 250th, America.
We will never forget the men who dived into the dark for us. 🇺🇸⚓🇯🇵

Becerra is the Sacramento machine's pick. Same thinking, same results.
You already have your ballot. Vote different. JUST TRY IT.
They need our help...
My fellow brothers and sisters in Christ, I am deeply broken and overwhelmed with pain. Sometimes, I feel as though I may be the next person to follow my brothers who have been taken away from us and buried in their graves. If God does not rise to fight for us, what are we going to do? I am sitting here helpless, wondering what else we can do. We have prayed, cried, and called for help, but it feels as though the government has turned its back on us.
Had it been that we were the ones who invaded Ruga, I believe the military would have surrounded our homes and made mass arrests. Yet, when our people are killed, our communities attacked, and our homes destroyed, we continue to cry for justice. We Christians feel helpless. Even some people who call themselves Christians and serve in the military seem unable to stand with us. What, then, should we expect from others?
My fellow brothers and sisters, even when the government knows what is happening, we continue to suffer. The authorities responsible for protecting our people must rise above religious and ethnic differences and do their jobs. Every Nigerian deserves protection, regardless of their religion or tribe. Why must innocent people continue to die while those responsible for protecting them struggle to provide the security they desperately need?
Today, four more people have reportedly been killed. How many more lives must be lost before the world pays attention to our cries? Every day, families wake up not knowing whether their loved ones will return home alive. We say goodbye to our brothers and sisters without knowing whether we will ever see them again on this earth. That is the agony many Christians in Nigeria are facing.
Sometimes, I wonder whether we will live to see tomorrow. If we do, we thank God for His mercy. If we do not, we pray that we will meet again in His heavenly kingdom. This is the painful reality of people who have been forced to live with fear, grief, and uncertainty.
The government must not dismiss the suffering of our people or ignore allegations of religious persecution. Every killing must be investigated, and every victim deserves justice. We cannot continue to bury our loved ones while those responsible escape accountability. We need protection, justice, and leaders who will value every Nigerian life.
My fellow Christians across Nigeria and around the world, I am calling on you to stand with us in prayer and speak out for the protection of innocent lives. We see how the Jewish people continue to fight for their survival, and we too must find the courage to stand together, defend our communities lawfully, and demand that our government fulfil its responsibility to protect us.
Where are our youths? Where is our courage? Why must our people continue to flee while those who attack our communities seem to escape justice? Let us be courageous, united, and determined to seek justice through peaceful and lawful means. May the Almighty God give us the strength to endure these difficult times.
Our farms have been taken over, our communities have been devastated, and our people are living in fear. We need our security forces to act decisively, protect vulnerable communities, investigate these attacks, and arrest those responsible. No innocent person should be arrested simply to create an impression that something is being done. Justice must be based on truth, not falsehood.
If you have chosen to ignore our suffering, I pray that God will touch your heart and help you understand our pain. I do not pray for anyone's destruction, but I pray that every leader who has neglected the cries of innocent people will awaken to the responsibility God has placed upon them.
Vengeance belongs to the Lord, but justice is also a responsibility that human beings must not abandon. As Romans 12:19 reminds us, “Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord

Mormons are Christians: the evidence
In April 1985, Bruce R. McConkie, an apostle of the Lord Jesus Christ, stood at the pulpit while cancer was killing him. He used what strength he had left to testify of Christ. Thirteen days later he was dead.
He did not spend his last public words on a creed or a program.
He spent them on Gethsemane, on the cross, and on the empty tomb. He spoke as a man who knew he would soon stand before the Savior he was describing.
“I am one of his witnesses.”
Please just watch the video.
Then look at how Mormons live, how they serve, and how they worship. Then tell me they are not Christians.
They take communion every Sunday and promise to always remember Him.
They are baptized in His name, they pray in His name, and His name is on the sign of every chapel they build.
Their book was written to convince the Jew and Gentile that Jesus is the Christ, and its prophets talk of Christ, rejoice in Christ, and preach of Christ to the last page.
They send their sons and daughters to the ends of the earth at their own expense to tell strangers about Him.
They go hungry once a month so the poor can eat, and when disaster hits, the yellow shirts show up before the cameras do.
You can argue with their theology all day, but you cannot argue with a people who have built their entire lives around a Man they have never seen.
If that is not Christian, nobody is.

Since I became a member, and then later became fully active in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, there are some things I have never heard preached from the pulpit at church.
1) I have never heard anyone give a Sacrament Meeting talk that denigrated other religions - Christian or non-Christian
2) I have never heard the Adam-God Theory taught or discussed in any church meeting or lesson.
3) I have never heard anyone say or teach that Jesus Christ was a "created" being. He's always spoken of in the eternal sense. One of His names that we revere is Alpha and Omega. Another one is the Eternal Father.
4) I have never heard that salvation is a result of one's works.
What I have heard in every Sacrament Meeting is the following:
O God, the Eternal Father, we ask thee in the name of thy Son, Jesus Christ, to bless and sanctify this bread to the souls of all those who partake of it; that they may eat in remembrance of the body of thy Son, and witness unto thee, O God, the Eternal Father, that they are willing to take upon them the name of thy Son, and always remember him, and keep his commandments which he hath given them, that they may always have his Spirit to be with them. Amen.
And...
O God, the Eternal Father, we ask thee, in the name of thy Son, Jesus Christ, to bless and sanctify this water to the souls of all those who drink of it, that they may do it in remembrance of the blood of thy Son, which was shed for them; that they may witness unto thee, O God, the Eternal Father, that they do always remember him, that they may have his Spirit to be with them. Amen.
Yes, we do teach the nature of Christ as described in John chapter 1, which basically says, Jesus Christ is God, and he came to earth as man. (Verse 14, "And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth." Hence, as man is, Christ (God) once was.
Yes, we do believe as the scriptures teach that we can become joint heirs to the Father with Christ. Romans 8:17, "And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together." Galatians 3:29, "And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise."
Yes, we do believe the teachings of the Holy Bible, as well as follow them accordingly. When we teach, we teach from the scriptures.
We also believe that Jesus Christ will return in glory and power. The wicked will be burned, as Christ testified, and the righteous will receive Him and live with him 1,000 years in peace.
We believe in being prepared for His return. Like the parable of the 10 virgins, there will be those who will be allowed in, and those who will be sent away. We believe that preparation for His return is important if we want to be among the 5 wise virgins.

Read this all the way through, then go to the link posted the end and read the rest. You'll be glad you did. It uses the past to explain the current state of our politics in a way that is clear, convincing and interesting.
PITTSBURGH-In April 1894, a ragged column of unemployed men attempted to come through Pittsburgh on the way to Washington. They called themselves Coxey's Army. It was a protest march of jobless workers led by Jacob Coxey, an Ohio businessman, and they were marching on the capital. The country was in the second year of a four-year depression, the worst in its history up to that time, and the city fresh from the violence and lost lives of the Homestead Strike, did not allow them entrance into the city limits: so they marched on along the Monongahela River.
Seven months later, the country did something the marchers might not have predicted. It voted overwhelmingly for the party of the steel tariff. Democrats lost 125 House seats, still the largest swing in the chamber's history. In Pennsylvania they kept 2 of 30. In Pittsburgh, Republican John Dalzell won withmore than three-quarters of the vote.
Pittsburgh hadn't swung. It had spent two decades becoming the model of the new industrial economy, and the rest of the country was catching up to it. Between 1870 and 1890 the city's population nearly tripled as mills pulled workers off farms and immigrants off ships. Through those same years the House changed hands six times, sometimes by a third of its seats, as a country caught between farm and factory lurched from one party to the other with every crash.
It is worth remembering this now, because it is happening again.
The House changed hands in 2006, 2010, 2018 and 2022. Three weeks from now it may change hands again. If it does, 2026 will be the seventh straight midterm in which one chamber of Congress or the other changed parties. We are inclined to treat this as a symptom of our own era: cable news, social media, polarization, a broken politics. History suggests something else. The country has been here before, and the reasons were less about politics than about the people doing the voting.
That's why the House is the right place to look. The framers designed it to register the public's mood. In Federalist 52, Madison wrote that this branch in particular "should have an immediate dependence on, and an intimate sympathy with, the people," and that "frequent elections are unquestionably the only policy by which this dependence and sympathy can be effectually secured.” Senators serve six years, and until 1913 they weren't even elected directly by voters. Presidents serve four. House members face us every two years, in districts small enough that a mill closing or a crop failure can change the result.
So when the House swings hard, it's worth asking what the country is going through; the first place to look is what the Gilded Age voters were telling us then.
In the 1870s and 1880s, Americans were living through the largest economic transformation in the country's history. In 1870, about one American in four lived in a city. By 1890 it was more than a third. Farmers watched corn fall from 83 cents a bushel in 1881 to 28 cents in 1890 while they paid tariff-protected prices for everything they bought. Mill towns filled with newcomers. Western Pennsylvania was where much of the future was being built: rails in Johnstown, locomotives in Altoona, coke in Connellsville, oil in Butler County, gas in Murrysville and George Westinghouse's alternating current in Pittsburgh. open.substack.com/pub/salena…

A warning to the U.S.:
My dear American friends,
I say this with love, as someone who has lived among you and owes you a great deal: your midterms are on November 3rd. And the same alliance is growing inside your Democratic Party. The same far-left wing that treats disorder as protest and police as the enemy. The same activists who refuse to draw a line between legitimate dissent and those who openly despise the West. The same politicians who think tolerance means tolerating everything, including the people who want to burn it down.
It always starts with excuses. Then comes impunity. Then come the flames.
Same causes, same effects. If you create the conditions we created, you will get exactly what we got tonight.
France was the country of the Enlightenment, of cathedrals and town halls that stood for centuries. Tonight, one of them collapsed live on social media while the government called for calm.
My dear American friends, the only advantage you have over us is that you've been warned.
Vote like your city hall depends on it. Because one day, it will. “
Tonight, France burned. America, you should be watching very carefully.
Today, October 17, 2026, more than half a million people marched across France against the cost of living. By 8pm, around 400 had been arrested. In Paris, police turned water cannons on the crowds at Place de la République, and one march was stopped 150 meters from the Élysée Palace. Of the 195 people arrested in the capital by the afternoon, only one actually lived in Paris. Mobs forced their way into the city halls of Marseille and Lille. In Lyon, a tourism office was set on fire. In Rennes, barricades burned. Near Limoges, a highway was blocked and police cars were torched.
And then came Limoges.
A crowd of very young people stormed the city hall, a protected historic monument built in the 1880s. They flipped police cars in front of it and set them ablaze, then set the building itself on fire. The flames took the roof, the wedding hall, and the civil registry, the office that records every birth, every marriage, every death in the city. Tonight, the bell tower that has crowned Limoges for nearly 150 years collapsed.
The mayor's response: "It's a monument that is burning, not the Republic."
That is the problem in one sentence. Our leaders still think words can put out fires.
None of this came out of nowhere. For twenty years, the French political class has excused everything. Every riot was "anger." Every burned car was a "social symptom." Every attack on police was "a reaction to provocation." And the hard left, La France Insoumise, which officially backed today's mobilization, built its electoral machine on an alliance with political Islamism: refusing to condemn, refusing to name, trading secularism and public order for votes. In France we have a word for it. Islamo-gauchisme. Islamo-leftism.
Tonight you saw where that culture of excuse ends. A country where a mob can burn down a town hall, and the state arrives after the roof has already fallen in.
