Report: Fired USAID and Deep State Operatives Are Planning to Use Their Regime Change/Color Revolution Skills Against Trump
Trump Fired Them. Now They're Plotting to Stop Him."Pay us to not work or we'll organize a coup." Prison for all of them.
Former USAID and State Department officials worried about the future of democracy in America say they're actively organizing to resist Trump, inside and outside of government. By Jose Pagliery Some of the democracy-building experts President Donald Trump fired this year from the U.S. Agency for International Development and the State Department are now reapplying the skills and knowledge they built up over decades to undermine Trump's power. For years, these officials were stationed across the globe actively supporting opposition movements in autocratic nations. Now they've got time, a network of former colleagues and a growing sense of moral indignation. "Take it from those of us who worked in authoritarian countries: We've become one," said a currently employed federal official, who spoke to NOTUS on condition of anonymity. "They were so quick to disband AID, the group that supposedly instigates color revolutions. But they've done a very foolish thing. You just released a bunch of well-trained individuals into your population. If you kept our offices going and had us play solitaire in the office, it might have been safer to keep your regime."
No shit.
The former officials tell NOTUS they're holding workshops on a tactic called "noncooperation." They're building a network of government workers willing to engage in even minor acts of rebellion in the office. And they're planting the seeds of what they hope could become a nationwide general strike. Some in the informal network of Trump opponents are sharing an old CIA pamphlet with allies who still work in the government: It's called "Simple Sabotage." "Widespread practice of simple sabotage will harass and demoralize enemy administrators and police," it says. "The saboteur may have to reverse his thinking... where he formerly thought of keeping his tools sharp, he should now let them grow dull; surfaces that formerly were lubricated now should be sanded; normally diligent, he should now be lazy and careless." The community is composed of diplomats and human rights activists who were once on the U.S. government payroll encouraging Latin American dissidents to fight dictators and supporting African independence movements. They were involved to varying degrees with an ultimately successful uprising in the Middle East. Some have found post-government work in academia and nonprofits.
Others are still looking for jobs.You don't say.
Several have begun moonlighting as strategic advisers to American activists, protest organizers and,b> federal employees willing to engage in civil disobedience. One group that has, until this story, remained under the radar but is starting to play a prominent role in this space is "DemocracyAID." It has no website or formal legal entity -- yet. But it's already hosting invite-only workshops with federal employees who hear about them from friends, vetting each person before they're allowed into a trusted circle and teaching them case studies, like the Danish underground insurgency against Nazi occupation. The lesson from Denmark is that what starts as office socializing can morph into trusted networks; seemingly uncoordinated work slowdowns transition into long lunch breaks that annoy the bosses as everyone goes home to "tend to their gardens." ... DemocracyAID is the brainchild of Danielle Reiff, another former USAID diplomat who retired from government work in late 2024. As Trump targeted her former agency this year, she started a group chat on the encrypted app Signal to "keep the community together." ... The focus quickly shifted from salvaging the foreign assistance infrastructure to redeploying inside the United States. Reiff and Tucci joined forces, held dozens of meetings, sketched out a general structure and split it up into working groups that concentrate on separate missions like communications and training. They now have 200 volunteers and an Instagram account, @friendsofUSAID, with over 88,000 followers. A recent post shared "5 ways to keep up the momentum" of last month's "No Kings" protests.Archived article here. Thanks to comrade Arthur. Sen. Eric Schmitt posted about this so the Senate knows about it, too.
"If you stop letting us run America, we'll start a color revolution and overthrow your democratically elected government."

Today, NOTUS published an incredible article wherein it interviewed former and current federal employees all outright admitting to plot a soft coup on President Trump, touting their expertise in color revolutions. NOTUS is the newly launched flagship publication of Allbritton Journalism Institute (AJI), bankrolled by founder of Politico, Robert Allbriton, who has also been implicated by the Senate on foreign money laundering but never charged. The article talks about one of the groups involved, DemocracyAID. I cannot promise to unmask everyone, but I can reveal who's spoken publicly. Patience as I pull together this thread.

"Vogue readers have been left in uproar over the magazine's new cover featuring Anne Hathaway - with many blaming celebrity photographer Annie Leibovitz for its 'awful' visuals.
The Oscar-winning actress, 42, was front and center on the latest issue of the iconic fashion magazine which will be available on newsstands nationwide on July 15.
The cover saw Anne wearing a white high-neck top that boasted intricate floral embroidery as oodles of material floated around her.
She posed with a hand on her hip and swept her brunette locks forward over one shoulder as she delivered a somewhat stern smolder to camera."

1) Arrest the violent protestors.
2) Flip them and get at who recruited the violent protestors.
3) Flip the recruiters and get at who funded the protestors.
Roll the whole damn thing up. Even better - if they are foreign nationals immediately deport their silly asses.

There was a story earlier today about how leftists were beginning to openly call for violence against the Trump admin; BUT when you read the article closely it turns out that most of the calls for violence are coming from upper class leftists in comfortable neighborhoods, but they're calling for it to be done by their lower class minions in much poorer areas. They would never take the risk themselves.

They tried, by my count, at least 3 color revolutions against Netanyahu, with the full backing of the Biden admin. (They were desperate to make him stop the war with Hamas) The most obvious was when Benny Gantz was called to DC - he was supposed to be the next American installed PM; but Bibi confounded them all, and Gantz career is pretty much over.
Oh yeah that's also when Chuck Schumer, the big Friend of Israel, made a speech calling for Regime Change. (which was pretty much the death of his claim to ever be a supporter of Israel)

If they were or are current Feds, there are government files on each and everyone of them, including information about immediate family and medical insurance carriers.
The majority who've departed from gov. service would have complete retirement files available through OPM. Those with less federal service and 'age' would have had their files 'retired' too, unless they remained within the federal government. Their files would then be with their employing agency.
If they had IDPs/training/special assignments with agencies and contractors outside of the federal government, get those, too.

I don't know what people think happened here in 2020 but it was a color revolution. Started in 2016 with the Russia hoax but it really hasn't ended.

Now that there is no money, all they'll do is send emails and have group cry sessions.
Im sure most of these idiots still in government get these emails on work computers, which means someone like BigBalls can probably write up a program to search computers for their gay little pamphlet, and root out these government workers who have probably been inadvertently "sabotaging" the government through their sheer laziness alone.

Color revolutions overseas only succeeded as long as the money from USAID kept coming in. Once the money spigot went away, the new "popular" leader fell, and generally the country dissolved into anarchy until some order could be arranged. Generally more brutal and autocratic than before.

All kinds of mundane less exciting violations of law are implied by some of the sheer nonsense in the article. None of them new, none of them with the slightest chance of being effective.
What was termed the "permanent government" 50 years ago (by the mainstream press of the time) has been a problem since there were governments. If it's a more toxic problem now, that just parallels the degradation across society and its institutions.

Now compare this with the situations in almost any other country, but especially normally regarded as authoritarian (North Korea, Venezuela, Russia, Chy-nah, Belarus, most of Africa and the Middle East, on and on).
Right.

It was 10,000 times more serious. It was just about the entire US system burning itself down to block and then hobble a particular politician. The intelligence leadership, the DOJ, the FBI, the judiciary, the White House, most of both parties in Congress. And of course the farcical cartoon propaganda desert that is now "the press".
A collapse. Not a "revolution" of any sort.
