I don't believe the US rioters know enough history to consider the colour revolutions. Maybe some of them can recall a violent regime change in Iraq. They're more likely to have been inspired by their own revolutionary war in 1776. Wronged Americans have a duty to grab their guns and take power. But I bet they never learned anything about the colour revolutions or the CIA at school. Maybe Snowden is talking about senior republican nutjobs who planned the Capitol riot? People like Steve Bannon, Mike Flynn and Corey Lewandowski?
Edit: or maybe he spends his days worrying about falling out of a window?
