“A little background: a ‘color revolution’ is a widely used term for the nonviolent uprisings that overthrew some of the autocratic regimes that emerged after the collapse of the Soviet Union. The most famous of these uprisings was the 2004 Orange Revolution that brought democracy to Ukraine. Ukrainian democracy has had its ups and downs since then, but it’s still standing — and still standing up to Russia’s brutal attempts at conquest. Early in the second Trump administration it was clear that something like a color revolution was the only way to reverse the destruction of American democracy.” (01/28/26)
