Migrants evacuated from shelter after FBI alerts extremist threat

A migrant processing facility called “Firefly,” was evacuated after the FBI received alerts about threats from two known extremists planning to “overthrow it by any means necessary.”

The facility, situated just outside Eagle Pass, is currently under FBI guard.

The FBI’s involvement follows reports of potential danger, prompting the evacuation of migrants. Although the extremist groups have not attempted to breach the facility, law enforcement remains on high alert.

Approximately 20 miles south in Quemado, Texas, tensions over the border crisis escalated as the “Take Our Border Back” convoy expressed their frustrations. The convoy, adorned with American flags and endorsing former President Donald Trump, arrived in the small town Friday night.

Law enforcement officials, wary of possible outside groups taking advantage of the convoy’s presence, are maintaining vigilance. Despite assurances from the convoy that their objectives are peaceful, concerns linger among authorities.

For a lot of people “Occupy Wall Street” was their job. Can’t fake that. Any genuine grass roots organizing is verboten and will be compromised or re-purposed or re-directed. They have it down to a science, and tight control of the media outlets only doubly ensures success. This has been going on for decades. See: “Bonus Army” for an early iteration of handling the riff raff. The “Hippies” and the “Anti War” crowd (and to some degree or another even the war itself in Viet Nam) were entirely a media creation. Divide and conquer. Get the people fighting amongst themselves, always knocked back on their heels for some reason or another. Everything about this story indicates the same playbook.

Probably, since we know the fibbies pretty much lie all the time. Like all commies.

So the feds have to name these migrant shelters code names, like “firefly“. They definitely do not want any media taking pictures of them either. If the Biden administration is so proud of its “compassion”, it should be showing pictures of these shelters gladly. Dems are such dishonest, phony hypocrites.

So, you’re saying these convoy folks are agrarians?

Uh huh.

No. There are more and more people willing to get up off the couch, instead of being keyboard warriors , and do something about what’s going on down there. My brother owns a truck. He’s an independent contractor for a town in New York. He hauls sand, gravel, and plows with the state during snowstorms. He’s there. He’s having a great time. Left his wife and kids home. All on his own dime.

It’s only a matter of time before someone gets the idea to SWAT those facilities.
