"...seven months before the riot, Washington insiders held a secret war game called the Transition Integrity Project (TIP) that literally rehearsed a “January 6 breakdown.”

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Danny_Glover#Civil_rights_activism

While attending San Francisco State University (SFSU), Glover was a member of the Black Students’ Union,[35] which, along with the Third World Liberation Front and the American Federation of Teachers, collaborated in a five-month student-led strike to establish a Department of Black Studies. The strike was the longest student walkout in U.S. history.[36] It helped create not only the first Department of Black Studies but also the first School of Ethnic Studies in the United States.[citation needed]

Hari Dillon, current president of the Vanguard Public Foundation, was a fellow striker at SFSU. Glover later co-chaired Vanguard’s board. He is also a board member of the Algebra Project, the Black AIDS Institute, Walden House and Cheryl Byron’s Something Positive Dance Group. He was charged with disorderly conduct and unlawful assembly after being arrested outside the Sudanese Embassy in Washington during a protest over Sudan’s humanitarian crisis in Darfur.[37]

In 1999, he used his leverage as a former San Francisco cab driver to raise awareness about African Americans being passed over for white passengers.[38] In response, Rudolph Giuliani launched Operation Refusal, which suspended the licenses of cab drivers who favored white passengers over black ones.[39]

Glover’s long history of union activism includes support for the United Farm Workers, UNITE HERE, and numerous service unions.[40] In March 2010, Glover supported 375 union workers in Ohio by calling upon all actors at the 2010 Academy Awards to boycott Hugo Boss suits following announcement of Hugo Boss’s decision to close a manufacturing plant in Ohio after a proposed pay decrease from $13 to $8.30 an hour was rejected by the Workers United Union.[41]

On November 1, 2011, Glover spoke to the crowd at Occupy Oakland on the day before the Oakland General Strike where thousands of protestors shut down the Port of Oakland.[42]

Political activism
Glover was an early supporter of former North Carolina Senator John Edwards in the 2008 Democratic presidential primaries until Edwards’ withdrawal,[43] although some news reports indicated that he had endorsed Ohio Congressman Dennis Kucinich,[44] whom he had endorsed in 2004.[45] After Edwards dropped out, Glover then endorsed Barack Obama.[46] In February 2016, Glover endorsed Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders for the Democratic presidential nomination.[47] In February 2019, Glover again endorsed Sanders for US president in 2020.[48]

In 2017, he co-authored a petition along with Noam Chomsky, Mark Ruffalo, Nancy Fraser, Oliver Stone and Eve Ensler, urging French citizens to vote for candidate Jean-Luc Mélenchon in the 2017 presidential election.[49]

Glover was an outspoken critic of George W. Bush, calling him a known racist. “Yes, he’s racist. We all knew that. As Texas’s governor, Bush led a penitentiary system that executed more people than all the other U.S. states together. And most of the people who died were Afro-Americans or Hispanics.”[50]

Glover’s support of Proposition 7 led him to use his voice in an automated phone call to generate support for the measure before the election.[51]

On April 16, 2010, Glover was arrested in Maryland during a protest by SEIU workers for Sodexo’s alleged unfair and illegal treatment of workers.[52] He was given a citation and later released. The Associated Press reports “Glover and others stepped past yellow police tape and were asked to step back three times at Sodexo headquarters. When they refused, officers arrested them.”[53]

On the foreign policy of the Obama administration, Glover said: “I think the Obama administration has followed the same playbook, to a large extent, almost verbatim, as the Bush administration. I don’t see anything different... On the domestic side, look here: What’s so clear is that this country from the outset is protecting the interests of wealth and property. Look at the bailout of Wall Street. Why not the bailout of Main Street? He may be just a different face, and that face may happen to be black, and if it were Hillary Clinton, it would happen to be a woman.... But what choices do they have within the structure?”[54]

Glover wrote the foreword to Phyllis Bennis’ book, Challenging Empire: How People, Governments, and the UN Defy US Power.[55] Glover is also a member of the board of directors of the Center for Economic and Policy Research, a think tank led by economist Dean Baker.

would like to see Blue Shift logistic’s outlined - i psyched out most of this but characterized Summer of Love events as making it look like DJT led to chaos -not thinking of it as a “rehearsal,” funding the Left’s “troops” for action. where is this TIP document? i didn’t catch that. was it in burn bags,part of what made Bongino’s/Patel’s jaws drop?

The Supremes’ refusal to hear the case of half the States suing the other half was a nice touch.
