More Left-Wing Terrorism: Four Arrested for Throwing Spike-Strips In Front of ICE Vehicles

The Democrat media continues to avoid reporting on this, and Democrat politicians continue avoiding condemning it or even acknowledging it.

They think they can duck the issue because their media allies are covering it up.

They're living in the past. The leftwing media is dying and no one goes to them for actual news any longer.

BREAKING: Border Patrol releases names & photos of suspects accused of using devices to spike their vehicles in LA today. The suspects were in possession of a tote bag w/ CHIRLA branding on it that had more spikes in it. CHIRLA is the major anti-ICE activist network in LA, and it has received $34 million in taxpayer funding. Law enforcement sources tell me that one of the suspects is transgender. They are all now facing felony charges.

CHIRLA is the "human rights" (open borders lunatic) organization that receives government funds to organize and lead violent insurrections against the government.

The various Democratic-aligned groups helping to fuel the anti-Immigration and Customs Enforcement uprising in Los Angeles are well funded and part of a coordinated operation despite organizers' efforts to make them appear spontaneous and grassroots.

The Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights of Los Angeles, one of the activist organizers at the center of the Los Angeles protests, received millions in taxpayer dollars through government grants, including federal funding for immigration assistance services, a Washington Examiner review found.

Formed in 1986, CHIRLA is a 501(c)(3) legal services provider helping illegal immigrants, including those convicted of crimes, avoid deportation.

CHIRLA informed criminally convicted immigrants of California's Proposition 47, which downgraded and resentenced certain crimes. Under this 2014 state statute, felonies involving drug possession, fraud, and theft were classified as misdemeanors instead.

"Prop 47 could help clean your criminal record," CHIRLA previously advertised, noting that noncitizens with criminal convictions may be deported.

According to CHIRLA's tax filing for fiscal 2023, the charity reported receiving approximately $34 million in government grants that year, up from $12.4 million in grant money in 2022.

Grant records show the Department of Homeland Security, the federal agency CHIRLA is protesting, has awarded the anti-deportation group with several six-figure grants since 2014 as part of a citizenship and assimilation program that financially supports organizations "actively working to remove barriers to naturalization." Categorized under "Citizenship Education and Training," the DHS grants totaling $1.2 million to CHIRLA were earmarked for "citizenship instruction and naturalization application services."

On X, a DHS spokeswoman said the Trump administration cut off CHIRLA's federal funding in March, including nixing nearly $101,100 remaining of a two-year, $450,000 grant yet to be paid out. According to a termination letter addressed to CHIRLA, the DHS determined that "the scope of work performed under this award no longer effectuates the program goals and the Department's priorities." CHIRLA was accordingly instructed to cease all federally funded activities carried out under the auspices of the award.

CHIRLA has also received a significant amount of taxpayer funding from the state of California, according to a Washington Examiner review of statewide grant records. In 2023, the state's Department of Social Services awarded CHIRLA about $3 million for an initiative providing free legal services to immigrants, such as application assistance in "cases seeking immigration remedies," i.e., deportation relief. Since at least 2020, CHIRLA has been granted $3 million each fiscal year through this legal assistance program. In 2022, CHIRLA received $1.37 million from California's social services department, specifically to provide pro bono defense services in removal proceedings.

CHIRLA, which is aiming to raise $65 million in funds for its new headquarters, also solicits donations online through ActBlue, the Democratic Party's primary fundraising platform, which is under federal investigation for facilitating a number of suspicious foreign transactions.

The spike-strips were carried in a CHIRLA bag:
