Protests and riots in Paris on 17 October 2026. Demonstrators gathered around Place de la République amid tear gas; cars and shared bikes were set on fire on Boulevard Voltaire and extinguished by the Paris Fire Brigade (BSPP); shops were looted, including a Chanel boutique in Le Marais at night.
We’re watching what’s happening in France, and we’re watching the liars of the corporate press assure us that the riots, looting, burning down of commercial establishments and town halls, and other detestable attacks on civilization are happening because “students” are upset over “school funding” and classroom ratios.

And few people are buying it.
It’s pretty clear what’s happening on the streets of Paris and other cities across France is a coordinated revolution. Fox News Digital has already smoked out from whence the coordination comes.
CHAOS INC: A Fox News Digital investigation by @FoxNews Digital’s senior editor of investigations @AsraNomani has identified 54 organizations behind France’s escalating protests — a sprawling network of communist parties, revolutionary socialist groups, labor unions, Palestine-solidarity organizations and international media outlets working to transform grievances into a full-blown revolt against capitalism, government austerity and military spending.
Now, 28 communist and socialist youth organizations across 12 European countries are mobilizing for a coordinated November 20 strike under the slogan “Fight for Our Future, Not Their Wars,” calling for walkouts, blockades, occupations and mass demonstrations.
Among the international amplifiers: organizations tied to Neville Roy Singham, a Marxist tech tycoon living in Shanghai, whose network includes Tricontinental and BreakThrough News, a New York-based outlet that published advance coverage of the weekend’s mayhem in France.

That should be disturbing enough. Pile something else on top of it, and it becomes even more disturbing.
The past few days, I got my hands on thousands of new transcripts and hundreds of recordings, thanks to leads from @SKDoubleDub33 and @iamlisalogan .
You’ve heard that the DSA is proposing structural reforms to America, including abolishing the Senate and imposing term limits.
What you not have heard is – there is an operational plan to put it all into action. If the Democratic Party sweeps 2026, then DSA will become “foot soldiers” in constant clashes with the administration to cross a “red line” or invoke a “doomsday scenario” – meaning, President Trump invokes the Insurrection Act, probably sometime in 2027.
Then, a lot of coordinated responses kick off, including delegitimizing the federal government itself and handing that legitimacy to Democratic governors. 2028 then becomes a vote on whether to keep America governance as-is or to burn it all down to appease a “young and brown” demographic.
The mysterious group who’s been coordinating 50501, Indivisible, and coordinating the NoKings protests is called “United Democracy Alliance” and their intellectual leader is Erica Chenoweth who came up with the 3.5% rule of nonviolent regime change.
Patience. I know I’ve hyped this more than anything else. It’s genuinely the biggest discovery I’ve had. This is an enormous archive. This is only the beginning.

I just ask you to pray to get the message out in the most impactful way possible. A mere 1 year ago, it would not have been possible for a human to connect all the dots in 7000 documents to reconstruct meetings from high-level, secretive, no-recordings alliances.
If you actually want to reclaim soveriegnty — learn everything about AI. Offload homeschooling, accounting, etc to AI to the greatest extent possible. AI/SI has made it possible for everyone to reclaim true sovereignty in the form of picking currencies, school curricula, etc. Choose accordingly.
The instinct is to doubt all of this, or at least to play it down.
But there is no evidentiary justification behind that instinct. There is a very real possibility that an international cabal of leftist tyrants in the making is attempting to bring civil war across the West — and we aren’t immune.
And as Data Republican later noted in a separate X post, it isn’t necessarily that a grand conspiracy is afoot…
🚨🚨THE DEMOCRACY FILES, PART 1: THE PLAN 🚨
I am working on gathering all the documents.
Now, here’s something to understand about the “democracy” and protest ecosystem: almost nobody knows the ‘grand plan’ so to speak. They simply agree to play a role.
For example, 99% of people breaking stuff on the streets believe they’re doing it out of an organic uprising. They don’t see that the police have been ordered to stand down. They don’t see that legal services have already been arranged for them. They don’t see that foundations are paying for their bonds.

Similarly here, governors aren’t participating in a pact to destroy the Constitution. Governors simply have agreed to push back on the Insurrection Act. The effect is the same: the governors end up playing a role in a grander plan.
I call this “shared epistemology” in my book Unelected. Motivations differ, people rarely agree to the big evil supervillain framing, but incentives all converge in the same end goal.
No Kings might not agree to explicitly tear down the Constitution, but they nonetheless work with DSA and will turn out millions of people if the right phone call is put in.
Here is one articulation of the plan – and crucially, since then, they have put many NGOs in their places to execute their proper role at all levels when the time is right.
Many more coming.

In pertinent part, that post reads…

Convince people to do the things they want to do anyway, and the component parts will work together.
And if you have a Democrat-controlled legislative branch taking office in early January, you can create so much chaos as to make the country ungovernable. (RELATED: Maybe Shut Up, Elissa)
We saw a strong taste of this in 2000, you know. The George Floyd riots more or less rendered the federal government irrelevant on the streets of those cities most affected. (RELATED: The Rise of the New Confederacy)
And six years later, we still have millions more foreigners here to serve as a standing army of chaos than we had in 2020. We have a more militant Democrat party than we had in 2020.
Six years ago this would have been considered shocking. It barely raises eyebrows now…
ON UCHICAGO CAMPUS: U.S. Senator from Michigan Elissa Slotkin hopes planned political prosecutions of republican leaders will scare young conservatives from getting involved in politics.

And then there is this…
Susan Rice offers a taste of what’s coming should the left retake power — promises Democrats will punish corporations and other institutions who have “taken a knee to Trump.”
“It’s not going to end well for them.”
“If these corporations think that the Democrats, when they come back in power, are going to play by the old rules…they’ve got another thing coming.”
“There will be an accountability agenda.”
“This is not going to be an instance of forgive and forget.”

It’s never been so wide open with the Left in this country actively spoiling for French-style street rioting and open politicized judicial action. And now there’s a paper trail Data Republican uncovered tracing the funding and organization to many of the same organizations and financiers behind the unrest there.
I hope you’re right.
What I would add is this — the best way to ensure this planned, or at least aspirational, insurrection does not happen is to deny it the fuel it needs. Get to the polls by November 3 and save the Republican majority in the House and Senate. Forget the polls, forget the media reports and cooked-up Polymarket predictions, forget all of it.
Just understand that whether you like Republicans, or the price of gasoline, or whatever, the alternative to the GOP is right in front of you on the streets of Paris, Lyon, Marseille, Limoges, and those other French cities. Because you now have evidence they want to bring that here — and if the Republicans are not in charge in Washington, you will have no one to stop them from bringing France to your door.
Nobody thinks the civil war is coming until it comes. But the warnings are there. Heed them.
