VIDEO THREAD: Pardoned J6er Jake Lang was pulled over in a U-Haul just moments before his arrival at the Islamic Center of America in Dearborn, Michigan, where he had planned to burn Qurans.

Police appeared to attribute the initial pulling over to texting while driving (he was livestreaming at the time) and counter-protesters gathered as the traffic stop took place, arguing with Lang and his friend from the sidewalk.

Officers let him drive a few blocks away, where he was pulled over again (as you will see in the next tweet.) 2) Lang and his friend drove around the corner where they held bacon and Qurans out the window while pulled over by the Dearborn Police.

“Anybody hungry for a Quran sandwich?” Lang yelled as counter-protesters arrived there, held at a distance by police.

Magpul donated boxes of 30-round AR-15 magazines which were distributed to the crowd for free, whose possession would theoretically be grandfathered in.

THREAD: The suspect in today's shooting at Old Dominion University has been identified as Mohamed Bailor Jalloh.

Jalloh had been convicted of providing material support for terrorism after being in contact with ISIL and at least one FBI informant and FBI undercover agent.

UCC1 referred CHS1 to meet with Jalloh, which the FBI surveilled.

VIDEO THREAD: Armed gun rights activists rallied at the Virginia State Capitol on Monday to protest proposed gun measures under new Democratic Governor Abigail Spanberger.

The Virginia Kekoas militia wore "Boogaloo" style attire for the first time publicly since 2023.

"All the rights, for all the people, all the time" explained the group's leader, who goes by ICE (which is not a reference to the agency of the same name). "We're just going back to our heritage, where we started."

"Things are a little bit more serious this year," explained the Kekoas member who goes by Sasquatch. "This is our unofficial battle cry!"

"I swear I'm not a swinger," he clarified, referencing the pineapples on his Hawaiian shirt. 2) "I'm generally a pretty liberal person, but when I saw videos of ICE jumping out of unmarked vehicles and nabbing people off the street, that's when I bought my first AR15," one attendee of the gun rally explained.

"We're facing tyranny right now, and I want to be prepared if that stuff comes to my neighborhood."

"Tyrannical government, whatever your take on it, that's the point of these bad boys right here," Virginia Kekoas militia member call-sign cross responded to that position, slapping the butt of his rifle.

"Let them leave!" some protesters yelled.

VIDEO THREAD: Pardoned January 6er Jake Lang held a "Crusader" rally outside AIPAC Sunday afternoon, throwing (chocolate) gold coins at attendees dressed as politicians and suggesting "their Jewish money" has caused a "brownification of America."

A couple counter-protesters including former elected official Patricia Eugenio demonstrated against Lang and his group.

FOOTAGE FOR DOCUMENTARY, NEWS PURPOSES ONLY. 2) Ivan Raiklin, an advocate for the January 6er's, confronted Lang at the podium.

While maintaining a cordial tone, he said Lang has "got it all wrong" by focusing on immutable attributes rather than "deep state traitors" "based on their actions, and actions alone."

DOCUMENT THREAD: Four members of the pro-Palestine, left-wing "Turtle Island Liberation Front" have been arrested in an alleged bomb plot after being exposed to at least one FBI Confidential Human Source (CHS) and one Undercover Employee (UCE).
2) The FBI begins their summary of probable cause by saying that their PAID informant (CHS) "has been a reliable source of information since in or around August 2021."

They say the informant was given a handwritten bomb plot titled "OPERATION MIDNIGHT SUN” in November by defendants, but do not detail any conservations that led up to this occurring.

They do not describe how long the group had been exposed to this CHS prior to their alleged escalation into bomb plotting.

The criminal complaint against Brian Cole Jr has been released, detailing the government’s evidence that this Virginia man is the January 5, 2021 pipe bomber.

The evidence basically amounts to three categories:

-Cell phone pings allegedly placing him at the scene

-Purchases over the prior more than a year of materials consistent with the devices

-A vehicle allegedly matching his leaving the area on that night

storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco… Notably, while government sources have reportedly characterized Cole as “anarchist,” this criminal complaint does not characterize any evidence related to ideological background or motive.

VIDEO THREAD: Protesters gathered outside the Portland ICE facility again Sunday afternoon, where they were forced back by federal agents firing pepper balls outside the front entrance as vehicles went in and out.

"How's it feel to have your munitions beaten by a f***ing umbrella?" 2) Agents continued to fire sting balls to clear the entrance. "We're moving man," one replied over a loud speaker. "You're shooting us as we are moving!"

A prisoner transport vehicle left the facility with multiple people apparently detained inside.

He was taken away in an unmarked vehicle with a “Chinga la migra” sticker on the front.

DHS, using a violent felon as an informant who they say "may be assisting law enforcement in the hopes of future payment" has charged alleged Latin Kings member Juan Martinez with soliciting the murder-for-hire of a law enforcement official in "Operation Midway Blitz."

2) According to the feds, Martinez, going by the name "monkey****" wrote on Snapchat “2k on info cuando lo agarren,” or “$2,000 on information when you get him" and "10k if u take him down."

Unlike prior weeks, agents used blunt force rather than chemical irritant weapons. 2) As protesters attempted to block ICE vehicles from entering or exiting the facility, Illinois State troopers pushed them aside, in some cases even physically picking them up, placing them on the grass nearby, and making arrests.

ICE agents waved as they drove by.

Tonight outside the ICE facility in Broadview, Illinois, an apparent clergyman wearing a clerical collar approached the building and was shot repeatedly with sting ball rounds by agents front the rooftop until he fell on his knees.

"God is watching you, and you will pay for this," he yelled to them before activists poured water into his eyes. 2) It was soon after the clergyman had been string-balled repeatedly that ICE agents made a push into the protesters.

The intermittent clashes that followed led to several arrests and countless sting-balls fired, hitting me at least four times (causing me to leave the scene).

Just now: Woman protesting outside Broadview ICE facility is shot repeatedly with sting balls, thrown to the ground, and ultimately maced point blank in the face as she attempts to block ICE agents from leaving the facility in a vehicle. After initially appearing to let the woman go, ICE agents approached the circle of activists attempting to treat the woman’s facial burns from mace, and arrested her, bringing her into the ICE facility she has been protesting today.

4K VIDEO THREAD: Federal agents, many wearing masks, oversaw a vehicle checkpoint in the Ivy City neighborhood of Washington DC, part of President Trump's federal takeover of law enforcement functions in the capital city.

Drivers were directed to either carry on or move into one of two lanes where they'd be detained. Several were issues citations for infractions like window tint, while at least four were handcuffed, of which at least three were taken away by police.

Washington DC's MPD officers performed most of the frontline enforcement, while the feds oversaw the operation, assisted, and communicated by phone. 2) "Unconstitutional, go fuck yourselves," a driver yelled after being allowed through the checkpoint without being pulled over.

"Get him, he's on his phone!" fruitlessly yelled an MPD officer in response.

"You lost him!" I noted to the cop, who replied "that was a good one."
