FBI Investigating Antifa For Plotting To Buy Guns From Cartel For ‘Armed Rebellion’
Quote:The FBI is investigating anti-fascist activists for an alleged plot to buy guns from a Mexican cartel in order to “stage an armed rebellion” at the southern border, according to an unclassified document obtained by The Chicago Tribune.
The FBI document, from December of 2018, warns of militant antifa activists planning to “disrupt security operations” at the U.S.-Mexico border. The group allegedly planned to buy guns from a Mexican cartel associate known as Cobra Commander, in order to “stage an armed rebellion at the border.”
The source who provided it to the San Diego Tribune asked the outlet not to publish the six-page document because the investigation is ongoing, and the outlet cited two additional law enforcement officials who confirmed the news. The FBI has warned dozens of law enforcement agencies in both Mexico and the United States of the alleged plot.
The FBI sent the report marked “priority” to agencies including the Department of Homeland Security, U.S. Customs and Border Protection, the CIA and the National Security Administration.
Antifa is known for using violent means, including in protests against peaceful conservative speakers, free speech advocates and even journalists. The well-documented instances of violence include a protester repeatedly punching a man in the face, throwing water bottles and launching fireworks at police officers and starting fires on a college campus with Molotov cocktails. The Daily Caller News Foundation’s reporting led to the arrest of an Antifa leader who stands accused of accosting and assaulting two Marines in Philadelphia.
Former Vice President Joe Biden launched his campaign for president by praising the group. He referred to a group of protesters who gathered in Charlottesville, VA, and violently confronted white nationalists “a courageous group of Americans.”

Why would they even call these clowns "anti-fascist activists"?
A. gives them some form of "credibility" and B. they are precisely what they claim to be fighting.
Quell free speech, demand conformity with their warped world view, use violence as means to their ends.
Maybe this is where we should be running a li'l Fast and Furious to, be like taking a knife to a gun fight for them.

More likely the Cartel would kidnap them for ransom money. Antifa kids tend to be upper-middle class to upper class kids. Their parents have money.
I say let it happen, teach these types that the world is a dangerous place.

If convicted they are looking at some significant jail time.

These idiots could get trapped between 2 countries without training. It would be bad.
If I was the American Border agents, I would fight back and force them to flee into Mexico where they would get picked up and sent to a nice Mexican facility. LOL

Yet another example of progressive hypocrisy.
Muh "common sense" gun control....
