ORGANIZED MOB: Anti-ICE Protesters Are Sharing Law Enforcement Movements Via Two-Way Radios

Anti-ICE rioters, according to the latest reports from the Los Angeles Police Department, have been coordinating their efforts in part by communicating via two-way radios to share the locations of and actions taken by law enforcement, military, and federal agents.

Fox News national correspondent Bill Melugin shared the latest details he’d received from the LAPD in an X post on Monday, reporting that dozens had already been arrested on a number of different charges and that at least five officers and police department horses had been injured while attempting to quell the unrest.

“NEW: LAPD announces that they made 50 arrests during the riots over the weekend, including charges for attempted murder w/ a Molotov cocktail, & assault w/ a deadly weapon on an officer. Five officers and five LAPD horses have sustained minor injuries, and crowds were using hand held radios to communicate law enforcement movements to eachother, LAPD says,” Melugin posted.

The LAPD’s confirmation of coordinated action among the protesters lent credence to multiple reports claiming that the riots only look chaotic on the surface — and that underneath, they are well-organized and well-funded and being executed by people who have been well-trained.

“LAPD firing rubber bullets at rioters who have removed the pink park benches to use as shields. If you just spend 2 minutes watching these ppl you can see they are trained and organized. They know what they’re doing,” Kira Davis posted.

Retired Army Colonel Kurt Schlicter assessed the situation in a Townhall column published Monday, where he said that the chaos was all just “an illusion” meant to scare and intimidate people into compliance.

“This is not a battle of cops versus rioters; it is a battle between narratives. Most people see regime media video of Third World savages waving the tacky banners of their garbage homelands, lighting fires, hassling cops, and doing other things consistent with being barbarians, and think that Los Angeles is in chaos and therefore get scared,” Schlicter wrote. “The idea behind this color revolution – it is organized and planned, not spontaneous or genuine – is to intimidate normal people into submitting and embracing the politicians associated with its goals in the hopes that it will stop. This is the work of the Democrat Party; the rioters are its useful idiots, acting to support the party’s goals while it’s maintaining deniability.”

A thread from @wokal_distance laid out the strategies employed by coordinated protests — strategies designed first to ultimately ensure that law enforcement has no reasonable alternative to using force, and then to ensure that when they do use force, they are on camera and the protesters on the front lines put the most sympathetic faces possible (babies, the elderly) on the movement.

“The riots happening in LA are not organic or spontaneous. They’re designed to look chaotic to cover up the fact that they’re well funded, exceptionally organized, and carried out by well trained activists using intelligent, highly developed tactics,” the thread began.

They’re designed to look chaotic to cover up the fact that they’re well funded, exceptionally organized, and carried out by well trained activists using intelligent, highly developed tactics.

Another thread from @datarepublican explored who was the funding the riots, naming the Coalition for Humane Immigration Rights or CHIRLA, and PSLWEB / Party for Socialism and Liberation, among others.

A number of NGOs have been implicated in this. Foremost is Coalition for Humane Immigration Rights or CHIRLA, and the photos of signs show they were printed by PSLWEB / Party for Socialism and Liberation. pic.twitter.com/yS7jXkHGJ8
