In today’s edition of “Because social media posts aren’t scary enough,” militant anarchists posted a photo of a Border Patrol SUV in flames to promote their activities.

What are their activities? According to Border Hawk News, the radical open-borders group, the Los Angeles Tenants Union, is now promoting the formation of so-called “community defense centers.”

The Los Angeles Tenants Union (LATU), which bills itself as a grassroots coalition of renters, has become one of the most vocal agitators against immigration enforcement in the city. Among its top priorities? Driving Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) out of Los Angeles entirely.

The group openly encourages residents to interfere with ICE operations and alert illegal immigrants to nearby enforcement activity. To that end, LATU has been popping up “community defense centers” across L.A. – makeshift tent setups with scrappy flags, folding chairs, and the occasional snack table – stationed near areas they claim are ICE targets.

Meanwhile, over on X, open-borders warriors shared a video with the tagline “Start Killing ICE Agents.” Yep, that’s pretty much the opposite of a tantrum and more like a threat. FBI, DOJ… are you paying attention?!

Then there’s a California elected official – Cudahy’s vice mayor Cynthia Gonzalez – inviting street gangs to protect their turf from ICE. That’s right, folks: public office now includes suggesting that major criminal enterprises take up arms to protect foreign invaders.

Adding to all of this is a report that there’s a new ICEBlock app to to report and track the locations of ICE. The fact that Apple allows this app on their platform and the fact that CNN is “promoting” it is disgusting.

And probably most egregious of all is the fact that these leftist sickos are now targeting kids. In a Breitbart News report, ICE Director Todd Lyons says that left-wing radicals aren’t just hating on agents – they’re out to scare their families, even children.

One activist posted ICE agents’ kids’ Instagrams and tagged them as terrorists; Secret Service had to step in to make an arrest. Lyons notes that assaults on ICE personnel have surged 500% since Trump took office, underscoring why agents need full protection at home. These sickos aren’t protesting – they’re threatening, and ICE is right to defend its own.

If this all feels familiar, it should. Just swap out Minneapolis for L.A., and police cars for Border Patrol SUVs. Once again, we’re watching far-left agitators set things on fire, assault law enforcement and go after people directly. The usual suspects appear to be the same folks: white liberals, Antifa, elected Democrats, George Soros nonprofits – with some illegal aliens and gang members mixed in.

Here’s just a small sampling of what these sickos have been up to:

In 2020, it was justified as “righteous rage.” Now? It’s gang-backed insurrection dressed up as “community defense.” The more things burn, the more they stay the same.
