It would be hard to overstate the danger posed by the leftists who control the media. Consider Katherine Maher, cartoonishly woke CEO of the state-affiliated propaganda outlet NPR. Her ambitions are bigger than spooning out moonbattery for kooks with the belly for it. She is a revolutionary in the most alarming sense of the term — as Christopher Rufo reports:
The West’s favored methods of supporting Color Revolutions include fomenting dissent, organizing activists through social media, promoting student movements, and unleashing domestic unrest on the streets. Americans hold varying opinions on such efforts, but what many don’t realize is that they occur not only overseas but also here in the United States. The summer of rioting following the death of George Floyd, which ushered in the new DEI regime, was in many ways a domestic Color Revolution, advanced by progressive NGOs, media entities, and political actors.
Among them was Katherine Maher.
Maher was involved in the wave of Color Revolutions that took place in North Africa in the 2010s, and she supported the post-George Floyd upheavals in the United States in the 2020s.
Remember when Obama helped depose Muammar Gaddafi, a former enemy who had become a de facto ally of the USA against Islamic terrorists, leaving a power vacuum for ISIS? “We came, we saw, he died!” cackled Obama’s chillingly vicious Secretary of State.
During the volatile Arab Spring period, under a constantly rotating series of NGO affiliations, Maher went to multiple countries that were undergoing U.S.-backed regime change.
These include Libya.
That the Obama Regime turned its back on the Green Revolution in Iran puts the lie to the pretense of advancing freedom.
During much of 2011, Maher worked for the National Democratic Institute, a government-funded NGO with deep connections to U.S. intelligence and the Democratic Party’s foreign policy machine. The organization was “set up to do independently what CIA had done covertly worldwide,” says national security analyst J. Michael Waller. While initially some distance supposedly existed between NDI and the intelligence services, that relationship has devolved back to “the gray zone,” per Waller, and it appears that they often work in concert. “NDI is an instrument of Samantha Power and the global revolution elements of the Obama team,” Waller explains. “It has gone along with, and been significant parts of, color revolutions around the world. It is very much a regime-change actor.” …
During her time at NDI, Katherine Maher was “part of a revolutionary vanguard movement,” says Waller.
NPR is a means to an end:
It is state radio, in the Soviet sense: it produces propaganda to advance its own cultural power and move the nation toward a desired end-state.
Maher understood the power of media—and radio, in particular—early in her career. In 2010, according to a now-deleted blog post that I have obtained, Maher speculated that seizing control of radio could be a way to “Govern a Country.”
Only ideologically deranged liberal elitists listen to NPR at this point. But it plays a key role in an overall strategy. So do Wikipedia and the encrypted-messaging application Signal. Maher was CEO of the Wikimedia Foundation and is chairman of the board at Signal.
Where the Deep State, the Obama/Biden regime, and the hostile ideology espoused at our expense on NPR intersect, there stands Katherine Maher.
As ham-fisted lawfare has made obvious, Democrats are pulling out all the stops to prevent Trump from being democratically returned to the White House. If they fail, the next government Maher helps overthrow may be our own.
