As we will show, these two seemingly unrelated upheavals are very closely tied together, and are but the latest and most profound manifesta- tions of a global revolutionary transfor- mation that has been under way for many years. Both of these revolutions are being stoked and orchestrated by elitist forces that intend to unmake the of America and extinguish liberty as we know it everywhere. In his famous “Lectures on the French Revolution,” delivered at Cambridge University between 1895 and 1899, the distinguished British historian and states- man John Emerich Dalberg, more com- monly known as Lord Acton, noted: “The appalling thing in the French Revolution is not the tumult, but the design.

In the matter of but a few weeks, the rule of law has been replaced by mob rule, as cowardly and/or traitorous political lead- ers have ordered police to stand down and allowed riotous thugs to run roughshod over the rights of the law-abiding and threaten the liberty and safety of all. Far from mollifying the rioters, each capitula- tion before the mob has only encouraged new outrages, as they follow the advice of French Revolutionist Georges-Jacques Danton to his fellow terrorists of in 1792: “We need audacity, and yet more audacity, and always audacity!” The auda- cious demands of the BLM/Antifa mobs rapidly escalated from “reform the police” to “defund the police” and “abolish the police.” But it hasn’t stopped there. Unap- peased, the mobs intensified their frenzied attacks and demands: demanding trillions of dollars in race-based “reparations” and tearing down statues and monuments of everyone from Christopher Columbus to George Washington.

Scheffer, a law professor at Northwestern University and the administra- tion’s main architect of the International Criminal Court, a UN institution aimed at stripping U.S. citizens of their constitution- al protections and subjecting them to the “justice” of the UN.
