THE DOCUMENTS for 'Civil War: The Left's Election-Night War Game'

If you watched tonight's show, I hope you took notes, because you need to be prepared for what's coming on election night. We're going to look into the future. Everything I'm about to show you was planned out in advance. As I've been laying out over the past couple of weeks, members of the Obama Administration and State Department wrote the playbook for Color Revolution in the streets. We've seen it play out over the past 3 years, and it culminates on November 3rd.

WATCH: Civil War: The Left's Election-Night War Game

I truly hope none of this happens, but there's no getting around the fact that multiple scenarios have been game planned for election night. There are 7 pillars in a Color Revolution and the first four I previously covered were all about the set up, but now I'm going to show you what they have planned for the execution. As I've been pointing out for over a year now regarding Ukraine, everything always comes back to the relationship between high ranking Democrats and George Soros.

This document serves as Doc Brown's Delorian. It's the left's election night playbook prepared by an organization called The Transition Integrity Project. Its founder is a woman named Rosa Brooks. She's a law professor and columnist that actually worked for the Pentagon from 2009 to 2011. And it should be no surprise that one of her old bosses was... George Soros. I mean, it's almost laughable at this point how blatant they are.

This is an email that was part of the Podesta hack revealed by Wikileaks. Brooks emailed Podesta, referencing a meeting they both attended with George Soros. She ended with an offer of help:

Let me know if there is anything I can do to be helpful to you and Jake.

"Jake" is Jake Sullivan, who worked for Joe Biden when he was vice president, Hillary Clinton, and is now back with Biden as part of his team. So here we have Brooks and the Transition Integrity Project, who claim to be TOTALLY non-partisan, attending big-wig meetings with Democrats at George Soros' house, and offering their help to both John Podesta and Jake Sullivan. Was producing the Preventing a Disrupted Presidential Election and Transition document part of that support?

I showed you last week that the left used that research to wargame everything they're planning to do on election night. The organization that convened the wargame was a group called Fight Back Table, convened, organized and paid for by George Soros.

Again, they don't even try to hide it. This is Soros' organization, Democracy Alliance, where they proudly boast that Fight Back Table is their initiative.

This is entirely a Soros run operation here. His former employee, who still attends high level meetings with both him and top Democrats, wrote the playbook, and Soros' organization sponsored the wargame.

The event was split between two sides: Team Trump and Team Biden. Take note of some of the participants because you're sure to hear from them on November 3rd.

On the "GOP" side, attendees included people like Bill Kristol and former RNC chairman Michael Steele.

That right there should tell you everything you need to know about the Lincoln Project. Not only are they teaming up with Democrats, they're in league with George Soros for crying out loud!

The "REPUBLICANS" also had the former Kentucky secretary of state Trey Grayson in attendance. Guess what he's been writing op-eds about lately?

Yeah... how mail-in-voting is so crucial this year. The hubris of these people is insane. I don't think I've ever seen such a blatant and obvious conspiracy just laid out there for the entire world to see. It's amazing.

For Team Biden, he was represented by people like John Podesta and the former DNC chairman Donna Brazile. But it also included multiple other participants from various backgrounds:

Other participants included political strategists, JOURNALISTS, polling experts, TECH AND SOCIAL MEDIA EXPERTS, and former career officials from the intelligence community, the Justice Department, the military and the Department of Homeland Security.

I almost don't even know where to start with that. They ALL sound crazy, but let's center in on journalists and social media because that goes directly to pillar number 5:

Enough independent media to inform citizens about the falsified vote.

It's a meme at this point to criticize the mainstream media on their bias.

It's a meme at this point to criticize the mainstream media on their bias. We all know it exists and that they're comfortably in bed with the left. But there's a lot more going on here than just your typical left wing bias. They've entered a new phase. Just look at the cover up over any mention at of what's currently happening.

Newt Gingrich mentioned the holy name "Soros", and immediately got shut down... ON FOX! The New York Times called me a conspiracy theorist for talking about Soros' influence over the media. Where's the conspiracy?!

It's well known that Soros funds David Brock and Media Matters with millions. Brock has bragged that his organization directly influences the media. This is an excerpt from a leaked email released by Wikileaks. They bragged that they conducted:

"over 900 on-the-record and off-the-record media interviews" and sent "80 sets of talking points, background materials and briefings on topical issues, 372 surrogates, including influential and frequent pundits on broadcast and cable news." It also sent "media advisories" and "talking points" to "960 members of the national media and 10,756 regional reporters in 28 states," and to "369 televisions producers and bookers."

Soros has financial ties to more than 30major news organizations.

NPR was even caught by Project Veritas of trying to cover up their relationship with him.

This is how you buy the media and control the narrative. This gives Soros, and the left, the ability to cover up anything they want to.

And speaking of cover up. Did you see this from Vox?

They're actually trying to say that we are the ones setting the stage for revolution. Let me get this straight: If I point out what the left is currently doing... I'm the one at fault?

We're entering a new ballgame with the media. They clearly have their talking points, and you'll see it play out all the way through election night. Did you see how they all pounced last week over the claim that Trump wouldn't commit to a peaceful transition of power?

It's so ridiculous, but almost EVERY mainstream outlet picked it up and ran. They're acting as if Trump said he'd barricade himself in the White House if he lost. That's not what he said! He said there would be a continuation because of all the mail-in ballots. That's literally the same thing the Democrats are saying... they just twisted Trump's response, and it was a total set up question for all of them to immediately jump on.

Look at this from page one of the Transition Integrity Project's report:

The concept of "election night," is no longer accurate and indeed is dangerous. We face a period of contestation stretching from the first day a ballot is cast in mid-September until January 20. The winner may not, and we assess likely will not, be known on "election night" as officials count mail-in ballots.

It's basically the same thing Trump was talking about, but with one key difference: The left isn't concerned at all of fraud surrounding mail-in ballots. Now, in any sane environment, this would probably kick off a few warning bells. Especially when we see things like this.

Or what about the military ballots cast for Trump that were discarded? And these are just stories that dropped over the past few days. There's no telling how bad it's going to get... but the left isn't worried one bit.

Interesting...

If you're curious as to what the media is preparing to do leading up to and on election night, you needn't look further than this piece from the Washington Post over the weekend:

It's abundantly clear that Trump plans to fabricate an election "emergency." First, he claimed mail-in balloting, a tried-and-true system, is fraudulent. Now his supporters are trying to harass in-person voters.

Shooting down all questions regarding the mail-in ballots is priority number one. Media priority number two is framing Trump's attempts to ensure the ballots are legitimate as a constitutional crisis. And priority number three is... well look at this next quote:

Let's be clear. There is only one political party in American politics embracing violence. There is only one side refusing to denounce all political violence.

What world is this intended for?! Republicans have condemned the violence since day one. It was the left that refused to speak out against ANTIFA and BLM. In fact, violence is part of their election night strategy, and blaming it on the right is part of that plan.

Pillar 6 is where preparation turns into action:

A political opposition capable of mobilizing tens of thousands or more demonstrators to protest electoral fraud.

You need a network of fully trained and organized street soldiers to apply the necessary bottom up pressure for any of this to work.

I'm constantly amazed over all the topics I've covered over my career that are now coming back into play the more we research what's happening right now. I remember watching the Arab Spring play out in places like Egypt, and then predicting the coming caliphate and the waves of civil unrest that would eventually make its way here. People laughed it off... there goes crazy Glenn Beck again! But the caliphate came, and now we have rioting in our streets.

We later found out that the Obama State Department was training activists through Civil Society 2.0, and George Soros was working right alongside them.

I remember watching Occupy Wallstreet and thinking there was more to come.

This is the original ad that kicked off Occupy. Notice what they list as their inspiration:

Are you ready for a Tahrir moment?

Tahrir, as in the part of the Arab Spring that toppled the Egyptian Government.

The Arab Spring inspired Occupy, and Occupy would become the inspiration for the national hub of left wing activists... the Action Network.

This is the hub for nearly every major street movement over the past several years.

The Action Network was started by a former John Kerry staffer, named Brian Young, when he was frustrated that Occupy Wallstreet fizzled out.

They had a lot of events, they got a lot of attention for around two months, but then it just kind of faded. A platform like ours could have really kept it alive.

The Action Network is like a new and improved Tides Foundation. They're the focal point, and nearly every other major protest and organizing player in the game revolves around them.

Their address is at 1900 L Street in D.C.

That's also the address of the largest immigrant youth-led organization in the country. Wanna guess where they get their funding?

Yeah... spooky dude.

They also share an address with a group called Change To Win, who are affiliated with both the SEIU and the Teamsters. Huh... isn't that convenient?

But that doesn't even come close to the list of mainstream left wing organizations that the Action Network is tied to.

Their 2018 990 IRS form shows partnerships with both — get this — the National Education Association, the largest union in the country, and the AFL-CIO, the largest federation of unions in the United States.

I wonder... how many police unions are part of the AFL-CIO? I'm gonna go out on a limb here and guess that NONE of them realize that they're unwittingly paying dues to an organization that is partnered with The Action Network who is actively organizing events to defund the police.

Try and noodle this one: The AFL-CIO is partnered with Action Network, who is helping to defund the police, and is ALSO hosting petitions for the AFL-CIO to drop police unions. Uhhhhh... conflict of interest?

And as all this is happening at Action Network, guess who just announced a major partnership with them...

The DNC.

I wonder if the DNC knows that Action Network hosts an international ANTIFA defence fund? Totally being rhetorical... I'm pretty sure they know.

Literally all the bases are covered through Action Network. Most of the protests and street movements we see to this very day are being organized through their site. Their partnerships and ties to the largest unions in the country as well as the DNC prove that either the Democrat party is either part of or, at least, condones what's going on.

But I'm not even close to being finished. If you look through the Action Network's site, another big name jumps out.

Multiple entries for Organizing for Action. And who's group is that?

And people actually criticize me for talking about top down bottom up. Obama was building it back in 2008! Back then it was called Obama For America, and it was supposed to be shuddered at the end of Obama's second term. But guess who won the 2016 election and turned everything upside down?

The now renamed Organizing For Action re-launched and set their sites directly on Donald Trump. Again, this is not a conspiracy theory.

The media was reporting on this back in 2017.

Obama is the only former president to remain in Washington D.C. No one in the media thought it was weird. No one in the media pointed out the fact that the former president was remaining to launch an all out assault on his successor.

Obama's little army even produced a "training manual" specifically on how to protest Trump. The manual describes in detail how organizers should flood events in red states to make it appear that Trump was more unpopular than he actually was. It called for "unfavorable exchanges caught on video" and that the goal was to:

Make Republicans, even from safe districts, second-guess their support for the Trump agenda.

Obama's group teamed up with Indivisible to produce the manual.

The material was used in town hall meetings all over the country, sometimes devolving into intimidation and violence. And guess who cheered on Indivisible's campaign to resist Trump?

The Action Network.

We're so far behind on this. It all culminates over the next month. As the founder of Action network recently said:

In some ways, we've just been road testing everything for two years, building up to this moment.

The organization has been built and tested, but the game fully kicks off on November 3rd. We know the future, and we can plan for every step of what they have cooked up... point by point.

Democrats and Republicans from the Lincoln Project — ok so basically all Democrats — wargamed four possible scenarios.

  • Game One: An Ambiguous Result
  • Game Two: A Clear Biden Victory
  • Game Three: A Clear Trump Win
  • Game Four: A Narrow Biden Win

No matter what happens on November 3rd, the left is looking to make gains. It just goes to show you the hypocrisy in the name of this document "Transition Integrity". What they have planned has nothing at all to do with transition integrity. They either want to win, and fundamentally change the country, or — if they lose — they still plan on fundamentally changing the country.

The inspiration for their plans should scare the hell out of you, and it's mentioned on the very first page:

The closest analogy may be the election of 1876, a time of extreme partisanship and rampant disenfranchisement, where multiple states proffered competing slates of electors, and the election was only resolved through a grand political bargain days before Inauguration.

See if this sounds familiar.

In 1876, Republicans controlled both the presidency and the Senate, but Democrats had taken back the House. On election night, the Republican candidate, Rutherford B. Hayes had a slight Electoral College victory, with his opponent leading in the popular vote. In several states, the vote counts were highly disputed.

What followed was the Compromise of 1877. Democrats agreed to concede but only if Republicans would agree to end Reconstruction in the South. Hayes relented, becoming president but opening op Jim Crow Laws in the South. Democrats doing what they do best... revealing their racism and holding people down.

This is their inspiration and it's not a strategy from people that think they're going to win!

Before I go over the 4 scenarios, take a look at some of the things listed as things they are preparing for in advance.

They're organizing a list of a thousand influencers to push the claim that Trump is trying to steal the election. You can expect a heavy dose of Hollywood and social media. On page seven, they're recruiting "moderate Republican Governors" to form their own coalition as well as readying a capital strike and work stoppage to pressure companies.

As I showed you earlier, the left has been busy building a network of street activists for years. On election night, they plan to unleash them. Look at this from page 9:

Team Biden almost always called for and relied on mass protests to demonstrate the public's commitment to a "legitimate" outcome... the possibility for violence will increase significantly.

The classic leftist playbook, but look how they plan on framing it.

President Trump and his more fervent supporters have every incentive to try to turn peaceful proBiden (or anti-Trump) protests violent in order to generate evidence that a Democratic victory is tantamount to "mob rule."

Oh they expect violence, but when it goes down, they'll blame Trump agitators. In what world is this even believable? Who's been responsible for all the violence over the past few months? Are we supposed to believe that the Tea Party will go undercover in black bloc and start chucking molotov cocktails? As ridiculous as this may sound, something like that is exactly the story they'll try and weave.

The first wargame resulted in an utter nightmare. They called it an "Ambiguous Result" with both candidates declaring victory. If the results show both trump and Biden neck and neck, you can expect to see these things happen:

  • Both candidates will declare victory. The Biden campaign immediately deploys their list of one thousand "influencers" to hit the social and mainstream media waves. Now it doesn't mention it here, but what do you want to bet that people like me or Tucker Carlson will get heavily throttled or shadow banned? They'll have a voice... but we won't.
  • The Biden campaign then unleashes what they call their "peaceful rallies", but - as I showed you earlier in the document - they fully expect them to become violent.
  • The left expects Trump to respond by federalizing the National Guard and invoking the Insurrection Act. Tell me… why would he have to do that if what they have planned is "peaceful"?

The game continues with a hypothetical scenario in Michigan where a Trump supporter destroys some ballots, tipping the state for the president. Because of that, the Governor of Michigan decides to send pro-Biden delegates to Washington. So we've got two things of note there: the use of an act of sabotage — something the right is rarely guilty of, but we can't say that about the left — and a state governor defying the results. I'm telling you, they're pulling out every dirty trick in the arsenal... and this was just the first scenario!

Scenario two was somewhat uneventful: A clear Biden victory.

In other words, Biden wins in a blowout. The Democrats think that if this happens that Trump will have no leverage to contest anything. It's actually kind of funny, and you can really see the bias from the Lincoln Project stooges sitting at the table. It actually includes Trump going to Mar-A-Lago to pursue "murky overseas business deals," and launching "MAGA TV." I kid you not. But I think someone should remind them that the king of "murky overseas business deals" is Joe Biden. China? Ukraine? 3.5 million from a corrupt Moscow oligarch? Come on guys...

Game three is what, I think, is most likely what we'll see go down: A clear Trump win.

The scenario assumes Trump takes an Electoral College victory, but loses the popular vote. This is clearly what Democrats think will happen as well. It's why they took inspiration from the election of 1876. Tell me if " transition" is what they're most concerned about here...

Right from the get go, the Biden campaign sends the masses out into the streets. Look how the left frames what happens:

The Trump Campaign planted agent provocateurs into the protests throughout the country to ensure these protests turned violent and helped further the narrative of a violent insurrection.

Rioting and looting will commence, violence will ensue, and who will get the blame? Trump supporters.

Rioting and looting will commence, violence will ensue and who will get the blame? Trump supporters. Get ready because, if everything kicks off as planned, it's going to happen.

The plan then appears to have Biden conceding, but then making a very public retraction:

It capitalized on the public's outrage that for the third time in 20 years a candidate lost the popular vote but won the Electoral College.

This is key for later in the scenario. This has nothing to do with transition integrity, and everything to do with shredding the constitution and our country.

The next stage in the plan has Democrats leveraging their "coalition of governors" to immediately ask for recounts in multiple states. In some of those cases, the governors completely ignore the results and send Biden electors instead.

This is just turn one of the wargame. At the end, this is what they list as to what they can successfully cook up:

At the end of the first turn, the country was in the midst of a full-blown constitutional crisis characterized by: 1) Political chaos; 2) Widespread threats of violence, and sporadic actual violence in the streets; and 4) A hostile, dangerous, highly-partisan, and frequently unconstrained information and media environment.

In summation... absolute chaos. This is what they want to sow on election night, even though Trump has clearly won.

The Biden campaign then announces that they have convinced California, Oregon and Washington to secede unless Congress agrees to fundamentally change the United States of America. I'm not kidding around here... This is their plan! Using that leverage, take a look at this INSANE list of demands.

  1. Give statehood to Washington, D.C. and Puerto Rico.
  2. Divide California into five states to more accurately represent its population in the Senate. (Interesting... they don't request the same for Texas. I wonder why…)
  3. Require Supreme Court justices to retire at 70.
  4. Eliminate the Electoral College.

So... the compromise of 1877 2.0. And we know how that one turned out. The scary thing is that this scenario is clearly what they EXPECT to happen. It's their most likely outcome. Violence, chaos, constitutional crisis and the end of the United States as we know it. It's right there in black and white. We had better start taking them at their word because they're not playing around anymore.

Game four, a narrow Biden win, wasn't as crazy as what they have in store for if Trump wins, but that right there should tell you what they have planned for if Biden wins. All those lists of demands will get pushed through. So regardless, their plans are to destroy America. But I do want to point out a few things.

Democrats fully expect Trump to investigate the large amounts of mail-in ballots, and they're geared up to stop any action the DOJ might initiate. They don't expect Biden to officially be declared the winner until at least a week after the election.

Check this out:

The Trump Campaign stoked chaos and mayhem by urging local police forces to break up Black Lives Matter and pro-Biden demonstrations and encouraging Alt Right / Boogaloo supporters to confront liberal protestors.

Democrats will have rioters in the streets in all scenarios, but the blame will be thrust on Trump. This theme is constant throughout the entire document.

Later in the scenario, the Biden campaign again called for massive civil unrest to continue, where they admit:

Violent skirmishes and vandalism took place during these demonstrations.

Didn't they already make a movie called The Purge: Election Year? Someone tell the Democrats that movies aren't supposed to be real. How else can you describe this? Their plan, in their own words, is to call for civil unrest when they fully expect them to devolve into violence. It's so blatant, if I didn't read it here with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe it.

Let's go back to the Obama administration's 7 Pillars.

Number 7: Divisions among the regimes' coercive forces.

As I told you two weeks ago, what they mean by this is the police and military. In order for everything I just showed you to successfully be pulled off, they need the police diminished and the military conflicted. They can't have police dispersing the riots, and they sure as heck can't have the National Guard moving in to support them. There were multiple mentions of National Guard troops in the wargame.

And the attack on the police has continued. Multiple officers were shot in Louisville during the Breonna Taylor riots.

One officer was clubbed in the head with a baseball bat last week in Seattle. Now imagine what's going to happen on election night...

The mainstream media continues to make the case that the military is divided against Trump. Take a look at this excerpt from the fourth wargame where Biden ekes out a narrow win:

A critical moment in the game play was the Joint Chiefs of Staff leaking that internal discussions had taken place about how to handle the escalating situation, including the consideration of resigning in protest of Trump's continued efforts to sow unrest. The leak indicated that the Joint Chiefs' commitment was to the Constitution rather than to the President.

This is a signal. Get on board and get in line.

If the left has their way... this is our future. I hope not, but it's kind of hard to argue that any of this is hyperbolic or conspiracy theory when it's right there in black and white in their own words. I'm revealing all of this... not to cause an uproar. We need the opposite. We need to be level headed. We need to know what they are planning so we can defeat their ideas with our own. When they call for people to hit the streets, we need to show this information with everyone we know. Show them that it was their plan, and that they want to provoke a response. Don't give it. I hope that the Trump team has this information and has made plans. The fate of our country is at stake.

If the left has their way... this is our future.

With the passing of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, there is now the complicated added layer of nominating a replacement for her just weeks before an election. The left is losing its mind over this already.

So, what can you do about any of this? First, vote of course. In-person, at a polling place is the best bet for making sure your vote counts. Democrats have made it sound like polling locations are Republican COVID death traps, yet people somehow manage to survive going to Wal-Mart every day. With so many places offering early voting options now, you will be able to vote in-person if you want to.

Democrats have made it sound like polling locations are Republican COVID death traps...

Especially if the election is close, we know the Color Revolution crowd will pull out all the stops to litigate the results.

Biden's team has already hired 600 lawyers to do just that if necessary. So patience will be required. It will likely take several weeks to get an official result. There will likely be instances of fraud, missing ballots, and found ballots. It will be extremely frustrating.

But regardless of the result, take the high road. Consider taking a social media sabbatical until the storm blows over. At the very least, don't share election rumors. Resist joining mobs — even if it's your favorite team.

I'm not saying roll over and be docile lambs. But we cannot mirror the "burn it down" crowd, because that crowd always fails in the end. Wherever you find yourself, whether in the halls of power or your regular workplace, be the adult in the room. There are much bigger issues at stake here than any one candidate.

Then, get involved at your local level. Support law enforcement. Become an election official. Run for the school board. Give to organizations defending life and liberty.

Do whatever you can to promote the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. If our current national turmoil proves anything, it's that we DO NOT know the Constitution. Work to reverse that trend in your community.

America's past and present failures are not a predictor of our future success. Commit to being the people that embody the mission President Lincoln proposed at the end of his second inaugural address:

With malice toward none; with charity for all... let us strive on to finish the work we are in; to bind up the nation's wounds... to do all which may achieve and cherish a just, and a lasting peace, among ourselves, and with all nations.

And finally, pray hard for grace and peace to reign. Appeal to God to have mercy on this nation that we love in spite of itself.


POLL: Is Gen Z’s anger over housing driving them toward socialism?

NurPhoto / Contributor | Getty Images

A recent poll conducted by Justin Haskins, a long-time friend of the show, has uncovered alarming trends among young Americans aged 18-39, revealing a generation grappling with deep frustrations over economic hardships, housing affordability, and a perceived rigged system that favors the wealthy, corporations, and older generations. While nearly half of these likely voters approve of President Trump, seeing him as an anti-establishment figure, over 70% support nationalizing major industries, such as healthcare, energy, and big tech, to promote "equity." Shockingly, 53% want a democratic socialist to win the 2028 presidential election, including a third of Trump voters and conservatives in this age group. Many cite skyrocketing housing costs, unfair taxation on the middle class, and a sense of being "stuck" or in crisis as driving forces, with 62% believing the economy is tilted against them and 55% backing laws to confiscate "excess wealth" like second homes or luxury items to help first-time buyers.

This blend of Trump support and socialist leanings suggests a volatile mix: admiration for disruptors who challenge the status quo, coupled with a desire for radical redistribution to address personal struggles. Yet, it raises profound questions about the roots of this discontent—Is it a failure of education on history's lessons about socialism's failures? Media indoctrination? Or genuine systemic barriers? And what does it portend for the nation’s trajectory—greater division, a shift toward authoritarian policies, or an opportunity for renewal through timeless values like hard work and individual responsibility?

Glenn wants to know what YOU think: Where do Gen Z's socialist sympathies come from? What does it mean for the future of America? Make your voice heard in the poll below:

Do you believe the Gen Z support for socialism comes from perceived economic frustrations like unaffordable housing and a rigged system favoring the wealthy and corporations?

Do you believe the Gen Z support for socialism, including many Trump supporters, is due to a lack of education about the historical failures of socialist systems?

Do you think that these poll results indicate a growing generational divide that could lead to more political instability and authoritarian tendencies in America's future?

Do you think that this poll implies that America's long-term stability relies on older generations teaching Gen Z and younger to prioritize self-reliance, free-market ideals, and personal accountability?

Do you think the Gen Z support for Trump is an opportunity for conservatives to win them over with anti-establishment reforms that preserve liberty?

Americans expose Supreme Court’s flag ruling as a failed relic

Anna Moneymaker / Staff | Getty Images

In a nation where the Stars and Stripes symbolize the blood-soaked sacrifices of our heroes, President Trump's executive order to crack down on flag desecration amid violent protests has ignited fierce debate. But in a recent poll, Glenn asked the tough question: Can Trump protect the Flag without TRAMPLING free speech? Glenn asked, and you answered—thousands weighed in on this pressing clash between free speech and sacred symbols.

The results paint a picture of resounding distrust toward institutional leniency. A staggering 85% of respondents support banning the burning of American flags when it incites violence or disturbs the peace, a bold rejection of the chaos we've seen from George Floyd riots to pro-Palestinian torchings. Meanwhile, 90% insist that protections for burning other flags—like Pride or foreign banners—should not be treated the same as Old Glory under the First Amendment, exposing the hypocrisy in equating our nation's emblem with fleeting symbols. And 82% believe the Supreme Court's Texas v. Johnson ruling, shielding flag burning as "symbolic speech," should not stand without revision—can the official story survive such resounding doubt from everyday Americans weary of government inaction?

Your verdict sends a thunderous message: In this divided era, the flag demands defense against those who exploit freedoms to sow disorder, without trampling the liberties it represents. It's a catastrophic failure of the establishment to ignore this groundswell.

Labor Day EXPOSED: The Marxist roots you weren’t told about

JOSEPH PREZIOSO / Contributor | Getty Images

During your time off this holiday, remember the man who started it: Peter J. McGuire, a racist Marxist who co-founded America’s first socialist party.

Labor Day didn’t begin as a noble tribute to American workers. It began as a negotiation with ideological terrorists.

In the late 1800s, factory and mine conditions were brutal. Workers endured 12-to-15-hour days, often seven days a week, in filthy, dangerous environments. Wages were low, injuries went uncompensated, and benefits didn’t exist. Out of desperation, Americans turned to labor unions. Basic protections had to be fought for because none were guaranteed.

Labor Day wasn’t born out of gratitude. It was a political payoff to Marxist radicals who set trains ablaze and threatened national stability.

That era marked a seismic shift — much like today. The Industrial Revolution, like our current digital and political upheaval, left millions behind. And wherever people get left behind, Marxists see an opening.

A revolutionary wedge

This was Marxism’s moment.

Economic suffering created fertile ground for revolutionary agitation. Marxists, socialists, and anarchists stepped in to stoke class resentment. Their goal was to turn the downtrodden into a revolutionary class, tear down the existing system, and redistribute wealth by force.

Among the most influential agitators was Peter J. McGuire, a devout Irish Marxist from New York. In 1874, he co-founded the Social Democratic Workingmens Party of North America, the first Marxist political party in the United States. He was also a vice president of the American Federation of Labor, which would become the most powerful union in America.

McGuire’s mission wasn’t hidden. He wanted to transform the U.S. into a socialist nation through labor unions.

That mission soon found a useful symbol.

In the 1880s, labor leaders in Toronto invited McGuire to attend their annual labor festival. Inspired, he returned to New York and launched a similar parade on Sept. 5 — chosen because it fell halfway between Independence Day and Thanksgiving.

The first parade drew over 30,000 marchers who skipped work to hear speeches about eight-hour workdays and the alleged promise of Marxism. The parade caught on across the country.

Negotiating with radicals

By 1894, Labor Day had been adopted by 30 states. But the federal government had yet to make it a national holiday. A major strike changed everything.

In Pullman, Illinois, home of the Pullman railroad car company, tensions exploded. The economy tanked. George Pullman laid off hundreds of workers and slashed wages for those who remained — yet refused to lower the rent on company-owned homes.

That injustice opened the door for Marxist agitators to mobilize.

Sympathetic railroad workers joined the strike. Riots broke out. Hundreds of railcars were torched. Mail service was disrupted. The nation’s rail system ground to a halt.

President Grover Cleveland — under pressure in a midterm election year — panicked. He sent 12,000 federal troops to Chicago. Two strikers were killed in the resulting clashes.

With the crisis spiraling and Democrats desperate to avoid political fallout, Cleveland struck a deal. Within six days of breaking the strike, Congress rushed through legislation making Labor Day a federal holiday.

It was the first of many concessions Democrats would make to organized labor in exchange for political power.

What we really celebrated

Labor Day wasn’t born out of gratitude. It was a political payoff to Marxist radicals who set trains ablaze and threatened national stability.

What we celebrated was a Canadian idea, brought to America by the founder of the American Socialist Party, endorsed by racially exclusionary unions, and made law by a president and Congress eager to save face.

It was the first of many bones thrown by the Democratic Party to union power brokers. And it marked the beginning of a long, costly compromise with ideologues who wanted to dismantle the American way of life — from the inside out.

Durham annex EXPOSES Soros, Pentagon ties to Deep State machine

The Durham annex and ODNI report documents expose a vast network of funders and fixers — from Soros’ Open Society Foundations to the Pentagon.

In a column earlier this month, I argued the deep state is no longer deniable, thanks to Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard. I outlined the structural design of the deep state as revealed by two recent declassifications: Gabbard’s ODNI report and the Durham annex released by Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa).

These documents expose a transnational apparatus of intelligence agencies, media platforms, think tanks, and NGOs operating as a parallel government.

The deep state is funded by elite donors, shielded by bureaucracies, and perpetuated by operatives who drift between public office and private influence without accountability.

But institutions are only part of the story. This web of influence is made possible by people — and by money. This follow-up to the first piece traces the key operatives and financial networks fueling the deep state’s most consequential manipulations, including the Trump-Russia collusion hoax.

Architects and operatives

At the top of the intelligence pyramid sits John Brennan, President Obama’s CIA director and one of the principal architects of the manipulated 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment. James Clapper, who served as director of national intelligence, signed off on that same ICA and later joined 50 other former officials in concluding the Hunter Biden laptop had “all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation” ahead of the 2020 election. The timing, once again, served a political objective.

James Comey, then FBI director, presided over Crossfire Hurricane. According to the Durham annex, he also allowed the investigation into Hillary Clinton’s private email server to collapse after it became entangled with “sensitive intelligence” revealing her plan to tie President Donald Trump to Russia.

That plan, as documented in the annex, originated with Hillary Clinton herself and was personally pushed by President Obama. Her campaign, through law firm Perkins Coie, hired Fusion GPS, which commissioned the now-debunked Steele dossier — a document used to justify surveillance warrants on Trump associates.

Several individuals orbiting the Clinton operation have remained influential. Jake Sullivan, who served as President Biden’s national security adviser, was a foreign policy aide to Clinton during her 2016 campaign. He was named in 2021 as a figure involved in circulating the collusion narrative, and his presence in successive Democratic administrations suggests institutional continuity.

Andrew McCabe, then the FBI’s deputy director, approved the use of FISA warrants derived from unverified sources. His connection to the internal “insurance policy” discussion — described in a 2016 text by FBI official Peter Strzok to colleague Lisa Page — underscores the Bureau’s political posture during that election cycle.

The list of political enablers is long but revealing:

Sen. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), who, as a former representative from California, chaired the House Intelligence Committee at the time and publicly promoted the collusion narrative while having access to intelligence that contradicted it.

Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif) and Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.), both members of the “Gang of Eight” with oversight of intelligence operations, advanced the same narrative despite receiving classified briefings.

Sen. Mark Warner (D-Va.), ranking member of the Senate Intelligence Committee, exchanged encrypted text messages with a Russian lobbyist in efforts to speak with Christopher Steele.

These were not passive recipients of flawed intelligence. They were participants in its amplification.

The funding networks behind the machine

The deep state’s operations are not possible without financing — much of it indirect, routed through a nexus of private foundations, quasi-governmental entities, and federal agencies.

George Soros’ Open Society Foundations appear throughout the Durham annex. In one instance, Open Society Foundations documents were intercepted by foreign intelligence and used to track coordination between NGOs and the Clinton campaign’s anti-Trump strategy.

This system was not designed for transparency but for control.

Soros has also been a principal funder of the Center for American Progress Action Fund, which ran a project during the Trump administration called the Moscow Project, dedicated to promoting the Russia collusion narrative.

The Tides Foundation and Arabella Advisors both specialize in “dark money” donor-advised funds that obscure the source and destination of political funding. The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation was the biggest donor to the Arabella Advisors by far, which routed $127 million through Arabella’s network in 2020 alone and nearly $500 million in total.

The MacArthur Foundation and Rockefeller Foundation also financed many of the think tanks named in the Durham annex, including the Council on Foreign Relations.

Federal funding pipelines

Parallel to the private networks are government-funded influence operations, often justified under the guise of “democracy promotion” or counter-disinformation initiatives.

USAID directed $270 million to Soros-affiliated organizations for overseas “democracy” programs, a significant portion of which has reverberated back into domestic influence campaigns.

The State Department funds the National Endowment for Democracy, a quasi-governmental organization with a $315 million annual budget and ties to narrative engineering projects.

The Department of Homeland Security underwrote entities involved in online censorship programs targeting American citizens.

The Pentagon, from 2020 to 2024, awarded over $2.4 trillion to private contractors — many with domestic intelligence capabilities. It also directed $1.4 billion to select think tanks since 2019.

According to public records compiled by DataRepublican, these tax-funded flows often support the very actors shaping U.S. political discourse and global perception campaigns.

Not just domestic — but global

What these disclosures confirm is that the deep state is not a theory. It is a documented structure — funded by elite donors, shielded by bureaucracies, and perpetuated by operatives who drift between public office and private influence without accountability.

This system was not designed for transparency but for control. It launders narratives, neutralizes opposition, and overrides democratic will by leveraging the very institutions meant to protect it.

With the Durham annex and the ODNI report, we now see the network's architecture and its actors — names, agencies, funding trails — all laid bare. What remains is the task of dismantling it before its next iteration takes shape.
