🧵 THREAD: A new report raises serious questions about the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) and foreign government engagement.

An explosive analysis by @ncri_io documents repeated, state-facilitated delegations by DSA to Venezuela, Cuba, and China, and asks whether these activities warrant a FARA compliance inquiry.

As always, patience as I pull the thread together. 👇Image
The DSA is a socialist political organization in the United States that operates alongside communist and other left-revolutionary currents. Once a candidate is endorsed, DSA chapters often mobilize substantial organizational support, including coordinated volunteer efforts, fundraising, and campaign infrastructure.Image
They often operate alongside other Neville Singham Communist organizations such as PSL.

The only functional difference between them and Marxists is that DSA allows for some minimal dissent. However, I haven't been able to discern what that looks like in practice. Image
Communists do not think in terms of nation-state boundaries. All Communists support each other. This is the reason behind "Red Scare" - not because Marxism is full of stupid ideas, but because Communists are true enemies of the state in that they support and work with enemy governments closely everywhere.

As @ConceptualJames pointed out, this is made explicit in the last page of the Communist Manifesto:Image
And DSA is no exception! According to @ncri_io, since 2021, DSA sent multiple delegations to:
• Venezuela
• Cuba
• China
Several were officially invited or facilitated by foreign state–linked entities, not informal travel. Image
@ncri_io Delegates met with senior officials, including:
• Venezuela’s Nicolás Maduro
• Cuba’s Miguel Díaz-Canel
• Foreign ministry officials & ruling party leadership
They were closed-door, credentialed, and state-hosted.
@ncri_io The report documents:
• Five-star hotels
• State-arranged transport & guides
• Conference venues & security
But IRS filings show $0 reported in non-cash foreign contributions for these trips! Image
@ncri_io DSA also made posts soliciting donations that heavily implied the host countries were bearing at least part of those expenses. Image
@ncri_io Again, this is what Communists do.

This is why enforcing the Communist Control Act isn't an abridgment of free speech, it's a matter of national security.

Being an active Marxist fundamentally means cooperation with enemy states to overthrow the country. Image
The report documents visits to the Cuban government as well.

Foreign countries are a large part of the current NGO unrest in the United States. Venezuela and Cuba are their nexus in the Western hemisphere. Venezuela is the bridge to China, Iran, Russia, etc. Cuba provides revolutionary training.Image
@ncri_io To make it worse, DSA is also a bridge between establishment "democracy" groups and Communist partners. You'll find them partnering with 50501, Indivisible, etc. Image
@ncri_io Liberal interventionists should all be taking a good, long look at their own souls and wonder how the entire Cold War order founded to stop Communist ideology is now partnering with DSA and PSL. I wrote about this strange inversion a while ago:
@ncri_io The report also performs linguistic analysis to show that DSA and Venezuela's messaging align very closely.

Possible sign that DSA is taking their orders directly from hostile state media? Image
@ncri_io The full report can be seen here. And, it should be clear by now that NCRI isn't Soros captured, isn't ran by ACLU, or anything of that sort. networkcontagion.us/wp-content/upl…

🚨🧵 BREAKING - The "conservative" protest against AI data centers has an anti-ICE NGO organizer, a DSA member, Facebook money.

Other than that, totally grassroots.

Axios ran an "exclusive" Wednesday about a "conservative group" called Humans First planning a nationwide day of protest against AI data centers on July 18. Amy Kremer is chairing it and invoking the Tea Party.

Axios didn't mention that Humans First was incubated by the Center for AI Safety, an organization funded with millions from Facebook co-founder Dustin Moskovitz. Or that its original staff included a Sunrise Movement organizer who sat in at Pelosi's office with AOC and a DSA member who organized for Kamala Harris.

NBC News described CAIS as having founded Humans First "to be a sort of Trojan horse to make AI safety issues more palatable to a conservative political audience."

@ParkerThayer exposed the Action Network backend.

As always, patience as I pull together the thread. 👇Image

Credit to @ParkerThayer for finding this Action Network backend and inspiring me to dig a bit deeper.
@ParkerThayer The money trail starts at Good Ventures Foundation, the private foundation of Dustin Moskovitz, Facebook co-founder.

Good Ventures is the giving vehicle for Open Philanthropy, an "effective altruism" grantmaker. Image

🚨 THREAD: What do Mike Pence, Mike Pompeo, John Bolton, and Elaine Chao have in common? They were all paid by a Marxist-Islamist Iran group that was designated as terrorist until 2012.

No, this is not a joke.

Mojahedin-e-Khalq (MEK) was founded by leftist Islamists to oppose the western-backed Pahlavi, and participated in his 1979 overthrow. Khomeini barred MEK afterwards. MEK was implicated in multiple bombings, including that of Americans, and remained an openly armed group until 2003.

Since they got de-listed as a terrorist organization in 2012 on procedural grounds, MEK and their fronts have been actively recruiting US politicians selling themselves as a moderate alternative to Khomeini. But RAND Corporation says MEK meets the qualifications for a cult, citing criteria such as forcing their members to work 16+ hour days and forced divorces.

Polls of the Iranian-American community shows that they do NOT accept Rajavi, MeK's leader, as legitimate, with a 46-point net disapproval - numbers nearly as bad as the existing regime.

As Pence's former Chief of Staff, Marc Short, has already weighed against Trump deal, it's helpful to recall this.

Receipts below. As always, patience as I pull the thread together.👇Image
Image
In an interview with @ItsYourGov , National Council of Resistance of Iran director and MeK representative Alireza Jafarzadeh was asked directly: "Is your group involved in any sort of lobbying or payments for speeches to prominent individuals such as Mike Pompeo?"

NCRI-US said "absolutely not."
@ItsYourGov Jafarzadeh is the registrant contact on FARA Registration #6171 for NCRI-US for Iran, on behalf of MeK. Image

🧵 THREAD: Shashank Joshi, a foreign think tank careerist, has a 16-year record of attacking US foreign policy... and now he's lecturing our military leadership on how to take the oath. Why does he still have a work visa?

He's an Indian national who arrived in April and is already the loudest critic of the Pentagon on social media.

The Economist's new Washington Bureau Chief — an Indian national on a visa who just arrived in April — went on a Canadian national security podcast literally titled "The Problem of America" and said this about US military operations:

"They have attacked scores of small boats in the Pacific and the Caribbean. They've killed dozens of people in a campaign that is, by most accounts, quite illegal and contrary to international law."

That's Shashank Joshi, @shashj . Defence editor turned bureau chief. Two months in the country and he's already built a 16-year paper trail calling American power "malevolent," "predatory," and "quite illegal" — while sitting on the advisory board of a UK think tank funded by the European Commission, BAE Systems, and the US State Department.

And he's now lecturing our military leadership on what it means to take the oath.

I have the receipts.

As always, patience as I pull together the thread. 👇
Shashank Joshi has been in DC for two months, and is already lecturing our military officials on what their oaths mean… even though his entire record is criticizing the US military.

Who is he, exactly? Image
He's an Indian national. Cambridge. Enrolled in a Harvard PhD program... but his public profiles list no doctorate, suggesting he dropped out. Senior Research Fellow at RUSI, the world's oldest defence think tank. Then a stint at the Tony Blair Institute. The Economist hired him as Defence Editor in 2018. Promoted to Washington Bureau Chief, April 2026.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.

🚨🧵 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. 🚨

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 — launched April 1, 2026 as an "April Fools' joke" — 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. 👇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

🧵🚨 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. 🚨

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. 👇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
