A Minnesota rapper who traveled to France to join escalating riots has urged white people to “raise hell” and “f*** s*** up” as part of a revolution on American soil, The Post discovered. And communist-linked groups in the US may be working to bring that hell to the nation’s capital.
Artist Tufawon, whose real name is Rafael Gonzalez Jr., joined Swedish activist Greta Thunberg outside Paul Éluard, the high school at the heart of the leftist protests marred by violence, looting and arson.
He addressed balaclava-clad protesters before performing his song “No One Is Illegal,” and riling up the crowd with chants of “f*** ICE” and “ICE out.”
“All power to the people,” the 40-year-old from Minneapolis boasted to his fans on Facebook. “After returning home from France I can clearly see how we need to become far more radicalized in the states.
“We have to be more enraged. Our comfort is hindering our progress. It really and truly needs to be white people that go outside and raise hell if we want to see revolution.
“There are far too many neoliberals that are just as bad as the fascists. The French have figured this out a while ago. Now it’s time to take it to the next level. Go f*** s*** up white people. It’s your time.”
“They said they were going to globalize the intifada and now they have,” foreign policy expert at the Heritage Foundation Mike Gonzalez told The Post.
“What you are seeing here is the red-green alliance, the marriage of convenience between leftists and Marxists. They have a common enemy which is the Judeo-Christian democratic West. They want to dismantle it.”
Tufawon, who is part Native American and has appeared on the popular radio show The Breakfast Club, claimed that the perceived underfunding of schools and declining public services in France is similar in the US.
“I’m incredibly inspired by what’s going on with the student activists and organizers,” the rapper said.
“The most marginalized students, the brown and the black students are the ones that are feeling the implications the worst.”
Tufawon urged fellow protesters in the US to “take influence from the French” so that they can defeat the “same common enemy”.
“It is dangerous rhetoric,” Gonzalez told The Post. “If people listen to him and act upon what he is recommending it is very dangerous.”
The rioters have targeted France’s cultural heritage, with thugs torching the 140-year-old city hall in the southern city of Limoges, and some have hit stores including Louis Vuitton, Hermes, and Apple as French authorities appeared to lose control of the streets.
Meanwhile, CCP-linked nonprofit Code Pink, backed by Neville Singham, has wasted no time using the unrest in France to plan similar protests in America, with a “taxpayer uprising” planned in Washington, DC, between November 10 and 12.
The feminist anti-American group has called on protestors to flood the halls of Congress in what it calls “three days of peaceful resistance.”
But its leader Jodie Evans, 72, a radical Hollywood filmmaker and wife of Shanghai-based tech millionaire Singham, called on “people to look at France” as she urged Americans to take to the streets.
CodePink has been accused of radicalizing a new generation of activists by spending millions of dollars to teach anti-American rhetoric.
Elsewhere, the Singham-linked Party for Socialism and Liberation, based in the US, has committed to joining French protesters in their “struggle for a socialist future”.
“We in the United States stand with you in your struggle against capitalist austerity,” the group proudly wrote on Instagram.
“We stand with you, because we too demand money for housing and education, instead of war and occupation. Vive la commune! Vive la révolution!”
Gonzalez, who fled communist Cuba in the 1970s, insists that China, Cuba and Iran are directing these protests. “These activists are taught to despise their own society,” he told The Post. “The groups involved in elevating the French protests, a lot are in the Singham network.”
Police made 2,500 arrests across France, while nearly 1,000 officers were injured over the weekend.
French President Macron said that “nothing justifies” the riots his country has seen and blamed the “unrestrained violence” on “insurrectionist elements from radical far-left groups, joined by numerous criminals.”
His comments came after Vice President JD Vance blamed mass immigration for the violent scenes in France.
“Western liberals imported the Third World into France and other countries in the name of diversity and compassion. They ignored fundamental questions of assimilation and compatibility. They were told it would lead to this, and they didn’t listen,” he wrote on X.
“I pray that France, a beautiful country of amazing people, will stop this madness before more of its landmarks burn,” Vance added.
Tufawon, CodePink and the Party for Socialism and Liberation declined to comment.
