Sen. Ed Markey Sounds Like He Is In on the Jacobins’ Plan to Grab Power

Senator Ed Markey may have participated in the Election War Game Exercises of the new Jacobins. Eric Holder and Elissa Slotkin have talked about the war game exercises in now-viral clips. They have a plan that sounds like they will provoke the President and use it to seize power in a modern-day coup d’état. They frame it as protecting democracy from Donald Trump.

Andrea Shaffer suggests Markey seems to have bought into the plan to take control of the government and may have participated in the war-game exercises. She urges everyone to vote wisely. She believes the Jacobins smell blood in the water, and they are ruthless.

It Sounds Like the Plan

Markey Reveals Color Revolution Plan: Unions & Workers to Shut Down Nation?

Senator Markey must have participated in the organized Ed Holder Election War Game Exercises.

In a interview conducted today, Senator Ed Markey stated that lawyers were already drafting an emergency case to bring before the U.S.

Supreme Court both before and immediately after the election. He added that thousands of lawyers were being prepared for deployment to key polling stations across multiple states.

Markey further said preparations needed to include readiness for a national strike on Election Day, with millions of people taking to the streets to protest what he described as an attempted electoral crime. He specifically called for workers, unions, and businesses to shut down in a manner similar to the response in Minneapolis following the deaths of Alex Freddi and Renee Goode.

Markey argued that the president was growing increasingly desperate because Republican fortunes had slipped, citing repeated visits to Texas to protect an otherwise safe Senate seat and campaigning in historically safe Republican states such as Kansas, Nebraska, and Iowa.

The Senator predicted that an anticipated large Democratic victory would prompt some Republicans in the House and Senate to distance themselves from the MAGA agenda rather than become “sacrificial lambs.”

Markey expressed concern that desperation could lead to the deployment of ICE agents or the military, and he said the public mobilization would demonstrate outrage to the Supreme Court if an emergency petition were filed.

This is why voters must choose common sense candidates in this midterm cycle. The modern Jacobins are out for blood, and only a decisive choice at the ballot box can save our republic.

They are conducting war game exercises.

Data Republican Color Revolution Drop 9!

Hillary Clinton was mentioned in this video by Eric Holder, chairman of The National Democratic Redistricting Committee (NDRC).

NDRC works with Democratic Party leaders and is affiliated with other nonprofits. This work is outside of his law practice.

It is a 527 tax-exempt political organization (functionally similar to a PAC) focused on redistricting and related democracy issues. Holder established it with backing from Democratic Party leaders, including then-President Barack Obama and Nancy Pelosi, to counter what he and allies viewed as partisan gerrymandering (particularly after the 2010 cycle) and to promote fairer maps.

Background Information

Data Republican unearthed Democratic Socialists of America documents revealing the plan to, at some point, send foot soldiers onto the streets to create enough chaos and violence to force the President to declare Martial law. At that point, the plan is to call the government illegitimate and have governors take control.  Laura Ingraham discussed it on her Fox show and noted that it’s not only DSA; it includes many in the American Left.

If all this is true, real insurrectionists are out in the open.

As evidence that it is true, this aligns with comments Elissa Slotkin made. Senator Slotkin, a former CIA operative, slyly encouraged soldiers to disobey “illegal” orders while no illegal orders were given. More recently, she warned youth not to work for the Republican administration. It came off as a threat.

At the same time, the riots and protests in Europe seem like forerunners, or trial runs, for many people. The real target has to be the most powerful nation: the United States. Something is in the offing, even if you don’t believe the plan is real.

Also, it is still mystifying how Democrats were able to convince people J6 was anything but a protest and a small contingent of rioters. Was that also in anticipation of an actual insurrection no one will take seriously since the word has been normalized?

The video clips Data is publishing are the most damning. You can’t discount their words and the communist values behind them.

 

The Plan for a Color Revolution

The 200 ex-USAID officials could rewrite the Constitution as they planned. They have a lot of help. They are working with Renew to Thrive (R2T), run by Danielle Reiff and Paul Zeitz. R2T is part of the United Democracy Alliance, which includes NGOs, 50501, and Indivisible. The National Security Leaders has operationalized it with 1,600 ex-military intelligence and diplomatic officials, led by Rear Admiral Michael E. Smith (Ret.). These groups have so-called “red lines” for declaring the government “illegitimate.” Much of this can be tied to Arabella and funding by Neville Roy Singham, who lives in Shanghai.

🚨🚨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.

Reiff’s Overseas Reform Experience, USAID Ecosystem, Undermining U.S. Judiciary Legitimacy.

🚨 Add-on to Data Republican report 🚨

“Reiff, an Obama-era USAID staff member who was later fired under the Trump administration, was previously involved in the Georgia Rose Revolution.”

Danielle M. Reiff’s May 2025 podcast remarks illustrate a pattern of selectively framing around judicial cases inaccurately.

She was part of a leadership summit in Arizona over a year ago coordinating with other leaders to place doubt on our current co-equal, three-branches of government.

This fits the broader USAID career of Reiff being involved in governmental transitions and institutional reform abroad, including the 2012 Georgia parliamentary elections.

There, as part of USAID’s democracy assistance portfolio, she contributed to efforts around civil society, women’s political leadership, election monitoring, and institutional strengthening during the first ballot-box transfer of power from Saakashvili’s UNM to Ivanishvili’s Georgian Dream.

That transition included constitutional shifts toward a parliamentary system and was assessed by Western monitors as reflecting voter will, though it also initiated lasting polarization and later prosecutions of prior officials.

successful at scale, this approach could weaken U.S. judicial independence by eroding public confidence in courts through selective or inaccurate framing of high-profile cases, while advancing institutional changes that subordinate judges to a nominal role other than a co-equal branch of government.

Judicial commentary of the type Reiff offered, which recharacterizes a convicted obstruction case as media distortion while emphasizing reform of party-controlled courts, functions as one such role by shaping public understanding of judicial legitimacy and independence.

If successful, these groups could help weaken the third branch of government by supporting the appointment of ideologically biased judges who prioritize political outcomes over impartial application of the law.

In short, Reiff’s inaccurate Dugan narrative and her Georgia-style judicial reform experience illustrate how former USAID democracy practitioners can shape domestic discourse and institutional pressure within the broader ecosystem, with potential effects that align with efforts to reduce judicial independence rather than preserve it.

This is a shorter commentary from a more lengthy post from yesterday. Check my timeline.
