Under the cover of darkness, 10 people, some carrying firearms, allegedly attacked the Prairieland Detention Center utilized by ICE in Alvarado, Texas, on July 4, shooting a police officer in the neck.
This is major news that should be plastered across the front pages and home pages of every prominent media outlet. It is a major crime with an apparent political motivation, allegedly committed by an Antifa terror cell. Along with numerous guns, communication radios, and body armor, investigators found members of the group with printed advertisements that included messages such as “Organising for Attack! INSURRECTIONARY ANARCHY,” according to the criminal complaint. The Department of Justice (DOJ) has charged 10 people with attempted murder of a federal officer.
So where are all the news stories screaming about an insurrection? Missing are the deep dives into the backgrounds of the 10 charged, who are named in the complaint: Cameron Arnold (also known as Autumn Hill), Savanna Batten, Nathan Baumann, Zachary Evetts, Joy Gibson, Bradford Morris (also known as Meagan Morris), Maricela Rueda, Seth Sikes, Elizabeth Soto, and Ines Soto.
CBS News doesn’t even mention the fact that a police officer was shot in this headline, “Suspects used graffiti, firearms, body armor in Fourth of July ambush outside North Texas ICE facility, officials say.” Neither did NBC’s headline, “10 charged after ambush at Texas’ ICE detention center,” nor did ABC, with its headline “10 arrested after ambush on Texas ICE detention facility, officials say.”
Days after the reported July 4 attack, on July 7, Ryan Louis Mosqueda was shot and killed after officials say he opened fire on U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents at the Border Patrol McAllen Station.
“There were many, many, many dozens of rounds fired … by the suspect towards the building, and towards agents in that building,” a spokesman said in a press conference.
The crimes raise questions that reporters don’t seem to have the appetite to answer. Like, are these incidents connected? Is this an organized movement? And if so, who is behind it? How did these people from different regions get connected? Who are they related to?
It appears that Cameron Arnold and Bradford Morris are men posing as women. Are they taking hormones, and if so, did the hormones affect their thinking? Were they purportedly shifting genders to distance themselves from criminal activity? Do they have criminal records from previous incidents? What can we learn from their digital footprints?
Similarly, on July 4, four people were arrested outside the Portland, Oregon, ICE field office, where protesters have been active since mid-June, using spray paint to scrawl graffiti of Antifa slogans. Several protesters there have been charged with assaulting a federal officer.
A story like this is normally catnip to reporters. But most in the propaganda press have regurgitated the DOJ press release and moved on.
Coverage of George Floyd’s 2020 death in Minneapolis and the resulting nationwide orchestrated BLM and Antifa riots went on for months. The media rehashed the events of Jan. 6 and screeched that it was a violent insurrection for years. But their coverage of these recent ICE attacks is just a flash in the pan.
It is because the propaganda press has taken a side. It considers ICE the enemy. The propagandists covering terror crimes against Department of Homeland Security employees are the same ones who concocted the 2021 narrative that Border Patrol agents on horseback whipped illegal immigrants with the reins on their horses. They are the ones labeling an illegal alien who is an alleged gangster with ties to human trafficking just a simple “Maryland dad.”
The propaganda press is irresponsibly missing the canary in the coal mine. We need to understand the anarchists responsible for these increasingly violent actions, how vast and organized their network is, and what is the most effective response.
