๐Ÿšจ๐Ÿ”ฅ WHO'S BEHIND THE ANTI-ICE RIOTS IN LOS ANGELES? PT. 2 ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿšจ

Yesterday's thread implicated Neville Singham as the backer behind PSL, the communist party which printed up the protest signs.

However, there are more NGOs involved. We will pivot our attention to Community Self-Defense Corporation and other local NGOs.

Patience as I assemble this thread in real time.

Thanks to @bullfrog35 and @jammles9 for assistance.
Two related groups, Union del Barrio and Community Self-Defense Coalition, organized protests. Centre CSO, an ally, had the ability to organize people quickly. Image
Image
Image
Neither organization is a registered nonprofit. Both Union del Barrio and CSDC are informal organizations and hence do not have an EIN associated.

Ron Gochez served as spokesman for both during a press conference. Image
This same Ron Gochez was the former chairman of MECHA. He also called for a Mexican revolution in the United States. Image
Image
MECHA has significant violent pro-Hamas elements. @bullfrog35 has extensively documented their extremism. Image
Image
Image
Although CSDC / Union del Barrio are grassroots, they are well-organized. Gochez bragged about being able to cover large areas quickly and simultaneously.

Translation: nothing about what you're seeing is spotaneous. They knew how to make sure the protests are coordinated and spread.Image
@bullfrog35 An allied group is Centre CSO, with Gabriel Quiroz Jr. as their spokesperson. He bragged about a "rapid response network." Image
@bullfrog35 Gabriel Quiroz Jr. also talks about organizing Raza to fight for George Floyd. So it would seem that the same people rioting today also rioted for BLM in 2020. Image
@bullfrog35 Union del Barrio claims to be entirely backed by membership dues and online sales and "fundraising efforts." Image
@bullfrog35 Their online store appears to sell only this... Image
@bullfrog35 More organizations are involved. Stop LAPD Spying Coalition did plan a rally. Stop LAPD Spying is not an independent nonprofit; it operates under Los Angeles Community Action Network (aka CANGRESS) and has the EIN 020661629. Image
Image
@bullfrog35 CANGRESS mostly has private grants from DAFs. Image
@bullfrog35 Centre CSO does not have an EIN. The two members mentioned by Influence Watch are both Communists. Image
Image
@bullfrog35 Another organizing group, Association of Raza Educators, was co-founded by Union del Barrio and, frustratingly, also is an informal organization with no formal nonprofit structure. Image
@bullfrog35 The protests had significant pro-Palestine elements. One of the chants was "From Palestine to Mexico, all walls have to go." Image
@bullfrog35 As explained last night, the presence of pro-Palestinian elements appears to be largely influenced by the PSL communist group. Image
Image
@bullfrog35 US Campaign for Palestinian rights organized protests for today, and it seems likely that these protests had significant overlap with the anti-ICE protests: Image
@bullfrog35 USCPR EIN is 42-1636592 and while largely privately funded, has received government grants in the past. They seem to be primarily DAF-financed. Image
Image
@bullfrog35 Yet another group, Black Alliance for Peace of South California, was involved in today's protests. They are a Black radical group deeply aligned with Palestine. Image
Image
@bullfrog35 BAP operates under Community Movement Builders, with an EIN of 474653915. They receive an unspecified government grant and DAF donations. Image
Image
Image
@bullfrog35 Because so many of those organizations do not have any EINs and if they do have EINs they are financed by DAFs, it's tough to trace the financers. CSDC has a GoFundMe that raised only $2000. Image
@bullfrog35 Centre CSO raised $8000. Image
@bullfrog35 Overall, it seems most of the local extremist groups are genuinely grassroots-financed. UnidosUS (La Raza) receives a lion's share of private and government money. But they have been strangely silent in the protests for the most part. Image
@bullfrog35 After running a search - CHIRLA along with PSL / Neville are likely the "deep pockets" behind this organization. Both were covered in my initial thread from yesterday.
@bullfrog35 Ron Gochez organized anti-Zionist protests last year. Image
@bullfrog35 A 2010 Fox News article quotes Ron Gochez as calling for a revolution against white people. I found the video. Stand by... Image

I've been relatively quiet on the subject of right-wing influencers who defected from MAGA.

But if they are actually proposing unity with left wing populist movements, then they are proposing unity with Communists.

That is the red line for me.
Everyone has their opinion on the Iran war or Israel. Maybe that opinion is enough to deter them from supporting Trump. I may not agree with it, but I understand where it comes from and it's a free country.

But when that turns into allying with Communists - that's when I have to speak up.
Institutional left-wing populism IS Communism. I'm not using it as a slur as in everyone to the left is a Communist. I mean it literally.

I'm talking about PSL, CODEPINK, Singham groups. The movements on the left that are anti-globalist are overwhelmingly Marxist.

๐Ÿšจ๐Ÿงต BREAKING: Former DHS Chief Miles Taylor's prank site collected death threats against the President and 4,000+ people's personal data. Then exposed them through all an open API. ๐Ÿšจ

Two days ago, I showed you how Miles Taylor's GTFO ICE site exposed 17,000+ people's data on an open API. That site halted sign-ups and is still "under construction."

But Taylor's organization DEFIANCE[.]org didn't just build one leaky site. They built two. On the same server.

UndoTrump[.]org โ€” launched April 1, 2026 as an "April Fools' joke" โ€” collects names, emails, and political messages from people signing up for fictional "Removal Parties" at government buildings. The White House Ballroom. The Kennedy Center. The DOJ. Battleships.

4,000+ signup records. 3,300+ unique people. Same vulnerability. Same API. Same zero authentication.

And this one has death threats against a sitting President in the database.

The man who was deputy chief of staff for the department that houses the Secret Service couldn't secure a sign-up form. Again.

As always, patience as I pull together the thread. ๐Ÿ‘‡Image
Image
Here's a video of Miles himself soliciting PII in sign-ups. He implies he's not saving the user data... but he did.
Same server. Same IP address. 34.111.179.208. Google Cloud Platform. Same React 19 frontend. Same Express.js backend. Same registrar. Domains registered 13 days apart.

This wasn't two mistakes. This was one codebase deployed twice. Name.comImage

๐Ÿงต๐Ÿšจ BREAKING: Miles Taylor: "Anonymous," former DHS Chief of Staff, Google security executive launched a website called GTFO ICE that collects your full name, email, phone number, and zip code to join an anti-ICE "rapid response network." And publishes the user infromation via a public API. ๐Ÿšจ

17,662 people have signed up.

The sign-up data is exposed on a public REST API. No true authentication. No rate limiting. Full records: names, emails, phone numbers, zip codes, timestamps.

The man who ran the third-largest federal department (250,000 employees, $60 billion budget) who oversaw election security architecture and led counterterrorism operations, then served as Google's Head of National Security Policy...

...can't secure a sign-up form. But he does milk hundreds of thousands of NGO dollars on these credentials. While freeloading off his fame as the person who wrote the infamous NYT article "I Am Part of the Resistance Inside the Trump Administration."

And despite me pinging @MilesTaylorUSA about this 12 hours ago, the REST API is still wide open and exposed as of now. Everything has been turned over to FBI, HSI, ICE, and more agencies.

As always, patience as I pull together the thread. ๐Ÿ‘‡Image
Image
Taylor's security clearance was suspended by presidential memorandum in April 2025. Trump called his conduct "treasonous." Five months later, Taylor launched DEFIANCE dot org. Five months after that... GTFO ICE. Image
Image
Image
Image
GTFO ICE is a coalition of three orgs:

1. DEFIANCE dot org : Miles Taylor + Xander Schultz
2. Save America Movement : Steve Schmidt (yes, of the Lincoln Project)
3. Project Salt Box Image

๐Ÿงต THREAD: You've heard the phrase "OUR DEMOCRACY" a million times. But what exactly is "OUR DEMOCRACY"? ๐Ÿค”

When they say "democracy," they don't mean a republic. They don't mean consent of the governed. They don't mean your right to choose your own leaders.

They mean a system where "institutions" - NGOs, multilaterals, the permanent bureaucracy - advance a set of values they consider settled: equality, social justice, cosmopolitanism, global governance. These values aren't proposals to be voted on. They're treated as moral prerequisites that must be true *before* your vote counts.

Despite what they say, they aren't for checks and balances. Checks and balances limit what government can do to you. This limits what you can do to *them*. The brakes are on accountability, not power. The institutions that set the boundaries of acceptable policy have put themselves beyond the reach of the electorate, and they call that arrangement "democracy."

Trump has been an existential threat to this system since the moment he said "drain the swamp" ... because the swamp IS the system. When he threatened those institutions, he didn't threaten the republic. He threatened their immunity from it.

And they said so. On camera. At their own events. In their own words.

As always, patience as I pull together the thread.๐Ÿ‘‡
Robert Kagan:
"I would say there is an argument for saying give me some smoke filled rooms... they weeded out the Donald Trumps of this world."

Backroom deals instead of primaries. Because primaries are how you got Trump... and the old gatekeepers would have stopped him.
Think Kagan's an outlier? Here's Brookings senior fellow William Galston at the National Endowment for Democracy's (NED) most prestigious annual lecture.

He explains that "liberal democracy" requires "some abridgement of majoritarianism."

Translation: democracy means limiting what the majority can do.

๐Ÿงต๐Ÿšจ THREAD: How the Charlottesville rally and SPLC birthed an entire billion-dollar-plus "democracy" ecosystem ๐Ÿšจ

11 federal counts. Wire fraud. Money laundering conspiracy. But here's what the SPLC headlines are missing:

โ€ข The indictment describes a paid informant in the leadership chat that PLANNED Unite the Right
โ€ข That informant "helped coordinate transportation" to the rally... at SPLC's direction
โ€ข There is ONE publicly identified organizer whose documented role was transportation coordinator
โ€ข His Discord posts about running over protesters were made 26 DAYS before Heather Heyer was killed by a car
โ€ข The indictment says postings were made "under the supervision of the SPLC"
โ€ข Charlottesville then became the founding event for a billion-dollar political machine
โ€ข SPLC installed itself as that machine's definitional gatekeeper

I report. You draw your own conclusions.

As always, patience as I pull together the thread. ๐Ÿ‘‡Image
Image
It is NOT confirmed fact that Chesny, who appeared to be encouraging running over protesters, was SPLC's informant.

But the indictment (paragraph 11a) describes informant F-37, and it matches Chesny:

โ€ข Member of the online leadership chat that planned Unite the Right
โ€ข Attended Charlottesville (at SPLC's direction)
โ€ข Made racist postings (under SPLC's supervision)
โ€ข Helped coordinate transportation for attendeesImage
Image
Now here's why this matters beyond the fraud charges.

Charlottesville became the single most consequential founding event in modern American political infrastructure. Every one of these organizations says... in their own words.... that they exist or were transformed because of August 12, 2017.

๐Ÿงต THREAD: The true reason Pete Hegseth is being targeted is because he's standing between President Trump and a coup

@PeteHegseth named the institutions... CFR, Brookings, the general class... in 37 seconds in a video by @Liz_Wheeler . Within 72 hours of his nomination, a color revolution planning document cited him as an insider threat.

They didn't go after him because of drinking. They didn't go after him because of women. They went after him because every color revolution manual ever written says the same thing: you cannot topple a government unless the security forces defect. And a loyal Secretary of Defense is the one person who makes sure they don't.

I have the receipts. Their own documents. Their own training sessions. Their own words on camera.

As always, patience as I pull together the thread. ๐Ÿ‘‡
@PeteHegseth @Liz_Wheeler This is not my theory. This is theirs.

Erica Chenoweth and Maria Stephan โ€” the two most cited scholars in the color revolution field โ€” studied 323 regime change campaigns. Their finding:

Security force defections make campaigns FORTY-SIX TIMES more likely to succeed. Image
Image
@PeteHegseth @Liz_Wheeler So what did co-author Maria Stephan do next?

She became Chief Organizer of the Horizons Project. And on July 16, 2025, she trained New Kings participants on video.

"Security forces refused to obey orders to repress protesters."
