The irony is thick, but these federal employees–some former, some current–have told NOTUS that they are turning their color revolution skills to taking down the President of the United States.
They are confirming that they are the Deep State and that they are proud of it. They want you to know that they are the real government.

It’s a remarkable story when you think about it.
“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.”
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.”
Their basic claim is that Trump’s America is authoritarian; therefore, they have the right to take it down. The proof that America is authoritarian appears to be that they, the rightful rulers of the country, are being frozen out by the democratically elected president, so to protect democracy that they, the non-elected, have a right to control, they must bring down elected officials.
They are admitting that they have used their “skills” to take out leaders in other countries–they have “skills,” just like Liam Neesen I guess, and are unafraid to use them.
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. Several have begun moonlighting as strategic advisers to American activists, protest organizers and 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.”
We are past the point where anybody can claim that there is no Deep State and worked our way to the “Deep State is awesome” phase of media coverage.
During Trump’s first term they were called the resistance, and we were told that their cause was just. This time around they are DemocracyAID, and the premise is the same: bureaucrats, not elected officials, are the ones who have the right to rule over us.
https://t.co/huuGAybCcu THESE TRAITORS ARE ALL KNOWN BY NAME and payroll records so they better tread lightly or they will get a visit from the ABC agencies and face treason charges! @realDonaldTrump President TRUMP can find every one of them! What Marxist FOOLS!

USAID was disbanded precisely because this was its real mission–taking over countries for the benefit of the transnational elite. This is why Trump was elected, and the transnational elite is not happy at all about it.
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.
Reiff said that some of the training sessions are “just letter writing: how to write op-eds to a local newspaper for a local story.”
“We’re democracy officers at the end of the day. We’re still in a strategic planning process. We’ve got a lot of different irons in the fire,” she told NOTUS.
As I have argued before, Critical Theory is about redefining the meaning of things, and one of the key words they have redefined is “democracy.” It used to mean rule by the people; now we are to believe it means rule by the elite.

Does this sound like an insurrection? They don’t believe so, because in their minds they ARE the government.
