U.S. Military Is Monitoring Groups Protesting at the Border

Are they watching both sides of the protest, like the self styled militias roaming around posing as law enforcement?<p><i>The U.S.-Mexico border isn&#x27;t protected by militias, it&#x27;s patrolled by domestic terrorists.</i><p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.nbcnews.com&#x2F;think&#x2F;opinion&#x2F;u-s-mexico-border-isn-t-protected-militias-it-s-ncna997056" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.nbcnews.com&#x2F;think&#x2F;opinion&#x2F;u-s-mexico-border-isn-...</a>

People please be safe. This is a friendly reminder that the fourth amendment is significantly weaker within 100 miles of an international border than it is for the rest of United States [0].<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.aclu.org&#x2F;other&#x2F;constitution-100-mile-border-zone" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.aclu.org&#x2F;other&#x2F;constitution-100-mile-border-zone</a>

While this is concerning, it&#x27;s hardly surprising. After all, if I were a gov&#x27;t in power I&#x27;d want to keep track on groups that could be a potential threat.

We seem to have defined down &quot;extremist:&quot;<p><i>“The extremists belong to a known anti-border wall group alleged to have direct action camps in the McAllen, TX area,” the document states. The group in reference appears to have been the Rio Bravo Action Camp, a training camp hosted by the Democratic Socialists of America’s Rio Grande Valley Chapter, the Carrizo Comecrudo Tribe of Texas, along with several activist groups, according to its website. The action camp’s training appears to focus on nonviolent forms of resistance, including civil disobedience and street protests.</i>

But who is monitoring the military?

As a counterpoint, almost every major European power “monitors” certain protest groups. The French Army, for instance was authorized to shoot Yellow Vest protesters. After the 2015 terror attacks in France, civil liberties were greatly curtailed due to the “state of emergency” — a state of emergency that kept getting extended at the whims of the Élysée Palace.

It’s not surprising, given a number of groups with similar intent were openly planning to intimidate or kill border patrol agents (govt employees) and have attacked govt buildings (shots fired at a building in San Antonio, woman with a firebomb in an ICE facility, man who shot at agents and tried to firebomb an ICE facility...)
