Antifa cells = Any one not in lockstep with the administration

Apart from the injustice from this obvious fascist move, some observations:

• This was done by DHS, not the FBI or local law enforcement. This is also almost certainly intentional, to continue to position the DHS as a law enforcement replacement. They have the budget and most convenient excuse to ignore constitutional protections since they are framed as border enforcement. This signals the DHS and Mullin will continue to expand beyond border enforcement and act with more impunity as Trump's (i.e., Stephen Miller's) personal regime enforcers.
• The focus of the charges is nebulous stalking and conspiracy to impede allegations. There's really no limit to how broadly these can apply to protestors and observers. Because this is happening now...
• The timing further supports a plan to ramp up ICE activity over the summer and fall leading to the midterms. The goals here likely remain to both (a) create a situation where lawful protest instead becomes a basis to invoke the Insurrection Act and station ICE agents and (b) create a test case for detaining opposition figures at key times.
• Newsweek using the terminology "Antifa cells," a designation implying an organized terrorist group when "Antifa" is of course not an organized group and is really just what the right calls protestors, reminds us that the media will continue to legitimize these actions.

Anyone targeting organizations because they are antifa/anti-fascist can only be fascist. And America learned how to deal with fascists in the 1940's, and they should be treated no differently today. No. Differently.

Desperately trying to get an ICE agent killed right now so they can try to fuck with elections.

They're fucking desperate.

Hm, why is it that the conservatives hate groups that are anti-fascist so much?

These are the whiners that always howl when anyone compares them to the Nazis.

All 15 defendants are alleged to be members or associates of the same core organization, Twin Cities Direct Action (TCDA), which was later renamed Direct Action Minnesota (DAMN).

Nice

Are the antifa cells in the room with you right now?

Dumb fucks. Good god I can't wait for this nightmare to be over.

So basically any house in Minnesota? Because, yeah, we're almost all opposed to fascism here.

Granny's crocheting group won't know what hit 'em

On January 7, during one of these operations in a residential neighborhood, Renee Nicole Good was shot and killed by an ICE agent. On January 24, Alex Pretti, a nurse, was shot dead in the street by a Border Patrol agent.

They misspelled "kidnapping attempt" and "murdered"

charged with conspiracy to impede federal agents

Since when is "defending the constitution" a crime?

I hear they are going after Antipedo next.
