🧵🚨 MAJOR BREAKING: A $15+ MILLION DOE contractor and NoKings protest organizer with active nuclear security contracts is on camera recommending a color revolution "how-to" 🚨🚨

His name is Steven A. Cash. Former CIA officer (Balkans, Clinton era). Under Biden: Senior Advisor to the Undersecretary at DHS Intelligence & Analysis.

The day after Trump's 2016 election, Cash co-founded "The Steady State" — a network of more than 340 former intelligence community officials who decided Trump was an "existential threat".

When Biden won, the threat was gone. Cash went into Biden's DHS. His own words: "we disappeared."

Then Trump won again. "Suddenly the existential threat was back." The Steady State reactivated and is now a planning partner with NoKings. In the clip below, their meeting recommends "Bringing Down a Dictator" — the Otpor documentary about toppling Milošević — as "a how-to."

Meanwhile, Cash's company Deck Prism LLC holds $15+ million in Department of Energy contracts. Almost every one: sole-source or non-competed. One is for the National Nuclear Security Administration — our nuclear weapons program — justified because "disclosure would compromise national security."

His FEC records: 20+ donations over 20 years. 100% Democratic. Zero Republican. Including $1,001 to Kamala Harris on August 4, 2024, while his NNSA nuclear contract was active.

I have the USAspending receipts, the FEC filings, and him on camera twice.

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

Before proceeding with this thread, please follow @listen_2learn , who tried to expose Cash earlier. Thanks to my new co-visiting fellow with @ItsYourGov , @JeffClarkUS , for help in researching.

@listen_2learn @ItsYourGov @JeffClarkUS Cash in his own words. Listen carefully.

"Pretty much the day after the election of Donald Trump."

"It really wasn't a political thing."

"Joe Biden wins. Existential threat gone." ... "We basically disappeared."

Then he went into Biden's DHS.

@listen_2learn @ItsYourGov @JeffClarkUS The International Spy Museum advisory board lists Cash as "owner and founder of Deck Prism, LLC," registered 2008, Cabin John, Maryland.

That company has $15+M in DOE contracts. The address on USA Spending matches a residence owned by Cash himself. Let's look.

Five contracts. His awards are still active, and he's using language of overthrow in regards to President Trump?

$8.55M — "Technical Support" (CONT_AWD_89303026FET400040_8900_89303025DET000003_8900)
$4.42M — "Transition Services" (CONT_AWD_89303025FET400037_8900_89303025DET000003_8900)
$4.39M — "Service Contract" (CONT_AWD_89303018CET000003_8900_-NONE-_-NONE-)
$3.50M — "Vulnerability Assessment" (CONT_AWD_89303024CET000021_8900_-NONE-_-NONE-)
$3.46M — "NNSA Assessments" (CONT_AWD_89233124CNA000331_8900_-NONE-_-NONE-)

@listen_2learn @ItsYourGov @JeffClarkUS That NNSA contract is sole-sourced under FAR 6.302-6. Someone higher up had to approve it.

The justification: "disclosure would compromise national security."

NNSA manages America's nuclear weapons.

@listen_2learn @ItsYourGov @JeffClarkUS FEC receipts: 20+ donations, 20 years, 100% Democratic, zero Republican.

@listen_2learn @ItsYourGov @JeffClarkUS DID A $15M+ NUCLEAR SECURITY CONTRACTOR RECOMMEND A COLOR REVOLUTION PLAYBOOK ON CAMERA?

Let's talk about his organization.

@listen_2learn @ItsYourGov @JeffClarkUS The Steady State claims "501(c)(4)" status on their Substack. But I couldn't find that.

But in a SCOTUS brief (Newsom v. Trump, Oct 2025) they called themselves an "unincorporated association." And used the same address as in the DOE contracts.

Which is it?

@listen_2learn @ItsYourGov @JeffClarkUS I couldn't find The Steady State on ProPublica's Nonprofit Explorer. I couldn't find a Maryland state registration.

However I did find that The Steady State and Deck Prism LLC share the same phone number.

@listen_2learn @ItsYourGov @JeffClarkUS Now the members of The Steady State.

Marc Polymeropoulos CO-AUTHORED the Hunter Biden laptop letter that 51 intel officials signed before the 2020 election.

Douglas Wise signed it, then ADMITTED he knew the laptop was real

@listen_2learn @ItsYourGov @JeffClarkUS Jonathan Winer — State Dept conduit for BOTH the Steele dossier AND the Shearer "second dossier" via Sidney Blumenthal.

Jeffrey Castelli — CIA station chief convicted by an Italian court in absentia for CIA war crimes.

@listen_2learn @ItsYourGov @JeffClarkUS The Steady State is the IC's node in the color revolution network I've been mapping: IMIP, DemAID, 50501, NoKings. This is how the intelligence community plugs in.

Start with this thread:

https://x.com/DataRepublican/status/1987550101703909532

@listen_2learn @ItsYourGov @JeffClarkUS The Steady State is a listed partner with the No Kings protest.

@listen_2learn @ItsYourGov @JeffClarkUS To wrap it up, here's Steven Cash outright admitting to having played a role in planning the No Kings protest:

@listen_2learn @ItsYourGov @JeffClarkUS A former CIA officer helping plan NoKings v3.
$15M+ in active no-bid contracts.
A 340-member IC org with no known financial disclosure.
Color revolution playbooks on camera.

And the same address, same phone number, same man running all of it.

THREAD END.

Please support me by preordering my book if you haven't already. And we will be happy to preview the manuscript with any institutional buyers or media reviewers. Email: john@passage.press

I intentionally went with a small publisher to avoid institutional censorship, and they need the preorders to distribute in nationwide chains!

@listen_2learn @ItsYourGov @JeffClarkUS Last last post and thread end for good:

I am NOT suicidal.

@listen_2learn @ItsYourGov @JeffClarkUS There's a bunch that I didn't go into.

Why did Cash get single source contracts in the first place?
Did Cash have ANY role influencing Deck Prism LLC contracts while at DHS I&A?
(Seems like Deck Prism address on USA Spending is his personal residence!)

Etc. @DOGE_DOE

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.

https://twitter.com/ConceptualJames/status/2051513835702337702

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. 👇

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.com

🧵🚨 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. 👇

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.

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

🧵 THREAD: You've heard the phrase "OUR DEMOCRACY" a million times. But what exactly is "OUR DEMOCRACY"? 🤔

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.👇

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.

🧵🚨 THREAD: How the Charlottesville rally and SPLC birthed an entire billion-dollar-plus "democracy" ecosystem 🚨

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

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

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:

• Member of the online leadership chat that planned Unite the Right
• Attended Charlottesville (at SPLC's direction)
• Made racist postings (under SPLC's supervision)
• Helped coordinate transportation for attendees

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.

🧵 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. 👇

@PeteHegseth @Liz_Wheeler This is not my theory. This is theirs.

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

Security force defections make campaigns FORTY-SIX TIMES more likely to succeed.

@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."
