Why did the group bring 11 guns and body armor to an ICE facility? Oh, yeah, they never intended to use them...sure Spek. Too bad they couldn't erase their Signal chat logs. Oh well.

Congratulations Belgium!

They shot an ICE officer in the neck, he's lucky to be alive. All those onsite were armed. They brought 11 guns with them. They were wearing body armor. They shot an ICE officer, and when he returned fire - and disabled the shooter's automatic weapon, they fled. I guess they thought that their Signal chats would protect them. They turned on each other like rats and disclosed the whole Antifa conspiracy. I just love how you make excuses for them.

Antifa is not real. Must be my imagination. ROFL https://www.ngocomment.com/p/562-years-in-prison-all-members-of 562 Years in Prison: All Members of North Texas Antifa Terror Cell Now Sentenced The 16 members of a North Texas Antifa terror cell have been sentenced to over 562 years in prison in the first federal Antifa terror case in U.S. history.

LOL -- Congress sets the rules!

Just like the US Congress intended! https://www.commoncause.org/articles/congress-made-over-635-million-in-stock-trades-while-americans-struggled-see-who-traded-the-most/

Yes indeed. It's a very good thing for Europe to grown up and learn to take care of themselves.

You keep kidding yourself Richard - and keep telling me that your armed Antifa rioters and shooters were exercising their rights to "Free Speech". I can't help it you are delusional.

Antifa is a designated terrorist organization here in the United States - so it's no joke - Mafia or organized crime, but dedicated to overthrowing the US government through violent means. You're right about the left, but incorrect on the right in the USA. Like my buddy CW, I never hear definitions of "authoritarianism" which gets thrown around here on CoBF every day. The term always gets thrown around - but never any specifics. The USA is currently very polarized, but that's what happens when you are at an impasse - with one group leaning hard toward socialism/communism and the other group fighting to keep our traditional government from changing. The politics is very ugly.

Lower those air conditioners!

Somehow Richard, I never figured you for an Antifa supporter that would tolerate the attempted murder of US officials. You're always full of surprises....better luck next time. You got duped by Yahoo News again - try the Judicial sources next time - and you won't be so gullible and naive. https://www.justice.gov/usao-ndtx/pr/antifa-cell-members-convicted-prairieland-ice-detention-center-shooting Nine North Texas Antifa Cell operatives were convicted today by a federal jury in Fort Worth, Texas for their roles in rioting, using weapons and explosives, providing material support to terrorists, obstruction, and attempted murder of an Alvarado police officer and unarmed correctional officers at the Prairieland ICE Detention Center on July 4, 2025. “These guilty verdicts and convictions rightly reflect the vicious, armed attack that these Antifa cell members planned and executed against law enforcement and detention center officers on the night of July 4 last year,” said U.S. Attorney Ryan Raybould. “Their terrorist acts, attempted murder, vandalism, and explosives launched at a detention facility were a far cry from some peaceful protest or First Amendment expression. Sixteen people have been brought to justice for these violent acts and their attempts to conceal them. We will continue in this mission to hold others accountable who perpetrate such violence and fund these ANTIFA groups in the Northern District of Texas.” Trial testimony reflected that, late at night on July 4, at least eleven of the defendants rioted and attacked the Prairieland Detention Center in Alvarado, Texas, which the U.S. Department of Homeland Security was using to house illegal aliens awaiting deportation. Evidence introduced at trial revealed that the defendants brought eleven firearms, body armor, and eleven military-grade first aid kits with tourniquets and other items for gunshot wounds to the scene of the attack. Many of these items were introduced by the government as exhibits.

What are you talking about... The dude was convicted for trying to hide evidence of his wife's significant involvement with the violent attack on the ICE facility. I said I feel sorry for the guy getting 30 years. Nothing in his conviction had anything to do with "Free Speech" - only his role in 19 or 20 AntiFa members planning out and directing an attack on an ICE facility - and then hiding his wife's role. You actually might want to read up on what actually happened.

So let's see. A dozen people show up with AK 47's and pistols, all loaded. They were charged with possession of 50 guns. The leader shoots the ICE agent, who while wounded, returns fire, and disables the leaders AR. The others get scared and take off, some on foot, some in vehicles - most are captured within a an hour - all wearing their body armor, with loaded guns. Yeah @RichardGibbons - I guess that qualifies as having "difference of opinion" instead of "terrorism". ROFL

Seriously - that's a gross misrepresentation of the facts. The dude's wife was convicted of several counts of terrorism activities - among them providing material support to the guy that shot the ICE agent in the neck. She was present for the rioting and participated in the attacks on the ICE facility. His conviction was NOT for "Free Speech" - his conviction was for attempting to hide evidence that implicated his wife in the conspiracy. It is a very harsh sentence - but has NOTHING to do with Free Speech - only conspiracy in the terrorist activities. I definitely feel for the guy, but he married a lunatic.

You don't get to make those calls. It's a total cop out. ANYONE should be able to criticize OR insult their government. Many times, politicians EARN the scorn of their citizens. It's far better to be able to say negative things about your leaders when they do a piss poor job or do not follow the will of the people.

You haven't really noticed Blake. Greg ain't much of a Trump fan, although seems to approve of some of his policies, which have mostly worked out. Me on the other hand.... Happy 4th!

Shit, we don't have a 9% inflation print like we did under the Biden shit show. What else is there to say?

That's a cop out for Europe. You can criticize the USA all day long, but not the other way around.

You clearly do NOT have "Free Speech" if you can not criticize politicians. Period.

We're just doing the dirty work your country is too cowardly to do. Don't worry CW - we got you covered. You can go back to cheering for the IRGC, Fidel's buddies and China Carney.

It's just like someone with severe TDS to go back to all the debunked law fare initiated against the Trump family. Look at the assholes that launched it - Fani Willis, Letitia James, James Comey, Joe Biden - all criminals trying to jail their major political opponent on bogus/fake charges - just like a banana republic. And of course, when Americans realized the lengths these assholes would stoop to - Americans rejected THEM and elected Trump. What idiots they were to try and put Trump in jail and remove him from the Presidential ballots. Americans are not stupid and understand corrupt politicians that have NOTHING to offer except "We don't like Donald Trump" Imagine that as your campaign platform.

Hey if Berkowitz wants to hand you cheap stock, all you need to do is hang on. The historical migration to Florida will go on for years. It's the happiest state I know!

Another idiot academic loses her University teaching position: https://jbhe.com/2026/06/indiana-university-lecturers-contract-ends-following-lesson-linking-maga-to-white-supremacy/ https://indianacapitalchronicle.com/2026/06/11/iu-lecturer-disciplined-for-white-supremacy-lesson-faces-termination/ Jessica Adams, a full-time lecturer on IU’s Bloomington campus, found herself in trouble in September when a student said she used a graphic identifying “Make America Great Again” as an example of covert white supremacy in her class on diversity, human rights and social justice.

Exactly - they've absorbed the lessons of opportunity, hard work and individual accountability - and left the "experts" that tell everyone else what to do, like teachers and social justice warriors - to ruin those important concepts. Those useless degrees could just as easily be earned by watching TV all day.
