Members of the notorious and brutal Tren de Aragua gang learned the hard way that illegally entering the United States to prey on American citizens wasn’t such a grand idea.

When a US Marine Corps gunnery sergeant and member of the White Hat community learned that his neighbor, a 72-year-old widow in Crystal City, Texas, had been the victim of a home invasion and beaten and burgled at gunpoint, he recruited a few buddies to deal with the illegal invaders themselves.

Tren de Aragua is a Venezuelan gang that started in prison in the state of Aragua and has since expanded into Central America and the United States, including Texas, New York, Colorado, and Wisconsin, and at least a dozen other states.

Their criminal activities include kidnapping, extortion, burglary and robbery, and human and drug trafficking.

They have taken over entire apartment complexes in Colorado and New York, with local law enforcement seemingly powerless to curb their reign of terror.

Crystal City in Zavala County sits approximately 50 miles east of Eagle Pass, the border city through which hundreds of thousands of illegals have infiltrated the US during the criminal Biden regime’s illegal autocracy.

Although President Trump has pledged to plug the leak as part of his forthcoming mass deportation program, the floodgates are still wide open, and Customs and Border Protection continues to be overwhelmed by the influx of criminal illegals, which include the bloodthirsty Tren de Aragua.

The Marine, who has been stationed in Eagle Pass as part of the White Hats’ effort to stop federal forces from interfering with Governor Abbot’s current expulsion program, had heard of the attack on the widow from his spouse in Crystal City, where they are renting a small home.

The victim reportedly did not call authorities because the gang members threatened to return and kill her if she did. She understood enough Spanish to understand the threat, which she took seriously.

However, she had informed a few neighbors, encouraging them to fortify their homes in case the gang was still casing the neighborhood for targets.

The Marine told his wife he was requesting leave to return home to ensure their residence was fortified correctly and that she had ample firepower to manage any would-be home invaders.

Granted leave, the Marine assumed a greater responsibility: Having reinforced the home and armed his wife with appropriate “stopping power,” he began canvassing the vicinity for unsavory characters, a daunting chore given the city’s racial composition.

But it was the city’s legal ethnic minorities—Hispanics and Latinos—that confirmed to the Marine that Tren de Aragua was indeed in Crystal City causing ruckus and mayhem.

They hated the gangs fervently, telling the Marine that the gang’s activities, if unchecked, would ultimately engender hatred for the God-fearing, law-abiding, Trump-supporting Hispanics who adhered to the country’s naturalization policies.

With their help, the Marine learned that a dozen gang members were squatting in a vacant house near Popeye Park, a children’s playground south of the city.

Using equipment he had “borrowed” from supply—thermal optics and parabolic listening gear—the Marine discreetly staked out the location and spotted three Tren de Aragua, identifiable by their signature tattoos.

Rather than notify local law enforcement, he phoned fellow Marines in Eagle Pass and requested their assistance in “taking out some trash.”

The next day, November 18, a half dozen Reconnaissance Sniper Marines (MOS 0322) joined him in Crystal City, and they devised a plan to rid it of unwanted inhabitants.

That night, the Marines encircled the house, surprising and garroting two gang members smoking weed in the backyard.

Music blared from inside the home, the deafening, wall-pulsing beats preventing the occupants from hearing any sounds the Marines might have made as they took offensive positions outside the door and windows.

A Marine covering the rear created a distraction. He had thrown pebbles at a rear window. When the blinds opened and a face appeared, he put a 5.56mm round in the face’s forehead.

A moment later, Marines smashed through the front door and shot out windows, then hurled flashbang grenades inside to stun the illegal dwellers.

The Marines came in shooting, their suppresser-equipped rifles perforating the enemy until their bloody, lifeless carcasses lay scattered about the home.

The Marines then piled the corpses in the rear of a rented van they had lined with polyurethane sheeting and drove the remains back to the border, where they dumped Tren de Aragua cadavers into the Rio Grande.

“Fuck around and find out,” one of the Marines told Real Raw News.

"This Is Treason"

All of the sins occurring in America can be laid at the feet of the American man.

All the turmoil our nation finds herself embroiled in is because of the apathy of the American man.

All the insanity and lack of social order has been allowed to flourish because of the weakness of the American man.

Every abuse suffered by our women and our children is because the American man is lazy, impotent, and afraid.

God created a natural order to all things. Look around your immediate surroundings and His work is visible to all that wants to witness it. He created woman to have a certain natural desire to nurture and care for her husband, father, and her children. Children are instinctively subordinate to their parents and desire their parents love and comfort. God created man to be strong and have a powerful desire and instinct to protect, support, and provide for his wife and children and care for his parents.

All of this natural order has been completely reversed and has been destroyed.

When it comes to global disasters, few things are more terrifying than the prospect of nuclear war. The devastation wrought by even a single atomic bomb is unparalleled, and the thought of an all-out nuclear conflict is enough to send anyone running for cover.

Fortunately, there are still some places on Earth that would be relatively safe in the event of a nuclear war. These countries have either developed extensive anti-nuclear capabilities or are geographically isolated enough that they would be unlikely targets for a nuclear strike.

So, what is the safest country in case of nuclear war? Here are top 20 candidates for surviving a nuclear war.

 As our society descends into chaos, vast numbers of people are choosing to pull the plug and walk away.  Of course it is nearly impossible to completely escape the ubiquitous madness that is seemingly all around us, but many are finding that an “off grid” lifestyle gives them the best opportunity to insulate themselves as much as possible.  When you become less dependent on the system, what happens to the system has less of an impact on you.  Unfortunately, it appears that our system is heading into a full-blown meltdown, and a significant portion of the population is feverishly making preparations in anticipation of what is coming. 

Our government is planning a big draft, conscripting millions of young Americans for an even bigger war!

I call to your attention a Democratic amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), which was slipped into the almost trillion-dollar Pentagon war spending bill, by voice vote, in the House Armed Services committee.

The Democratic Amendment to H.R. 8070, the National Defense Authorization (NDAA) reads:  

Section 531. Selective Service System:  Automatic Registration.  SEC. 3. (a)(1) “Except as otherwise provided in this title, every male citizen of the United States, and every other male person residing in the United States, between the ages of eighteen and twenty-six, shall be automatically registered under this Act by the Director of the Selective Service System.” 

This amendment is in the NDAA legislation and there is no pending amendment to strip it from the bill.  So, when the NDAA passes, as early as this week, Congress will have taken steps to make automatic conscription the law of the land.

Why an automatic draft?  Members of Congress and the President have an obligation to explain to the American people to which foreign land will their sons, and perhaps their daughters, be sent to die?

The U.S. has been in a continuous “State of Emergency” since September 11, 2001, which provides a president with over 100 powers he would not ordinarily have.   Notwithstanding that the automatic draft provision will go into effect in a year,   a presidential order invoking emergency powers and/or an Act of Congress, could readily move millions from their civilian lives to the front lines of a war.

WHAT WE KNOW:

We know that America is fomenting wars around the world

We know that the military industrial complex controls our government

We know that we are on the precipice of a global war, provoking aggression rather than resolution with Russia, China and in the Middle East.  

The only winners in these wars are the war profiteers.

They’re now going to take our children to fight in unnecessary, destabilizing, dangerous, debt-creating wars.

Just today President Biden committed the U.S. to an additional decade of support for Ukraine’s war with Russia.

There is no other conceivable reason to require more than 16 million American males to be automatically registered for the draft, other than to prepare for a large-scale war. 

The Selective Service System is the vehicle by which individuals are inducted into the armed forces.  This NDAA Automatic Registration amendment facilitates an efficient, large-scale draft.

The new law will automatically register all males between the ages of 18 and 26.  Selective Service will notify in writing every young American male that they have been registered and will prescribe regulations which can require the registrant to provide “date of birth, address, social security account number, phone number and email address….”

As the nation heads into the July 4th holiday, we have rarely been more divided as a people. Ironically, we are still debating the core values that define us, particularly the right to free speech. Indeed, “debate” hardly captures the rising anger and animosity from campuses to Congress. That is also nothing new.

While I have called this “an age of rage,” it is not our first. The United States was born in rage.

Roughly 250 years ago, a group calling itself the Sons of Liberty boarded three ships and dumped almost 100,000 pounds of English tea into the Boston harbor. The “Boston Tea Party” is still celebrated as an act of defiance that helped spark the American Revolution.

It was also an act of rage, a key moment that is the focus of my book out this week, “The Indispensable Right: Free Speech in an Age of Rage.”

As a nation, we have gone through almost cyclic periods of unhinged rage, including periods of what I call “state rage.” The first victim has always been free speech, including in our current age of rage. Indeed, this is arguably the most dangerous anti-free speech period in our history.

“The Indispensable Right“ is a reference to the description of Justice Louis Brandeis of core value in our nation. It is also a reference that captures our inherent conflict with free speech. Brandeis and his colleague Oliver Wendell Holmes are enshrined as civil libertarians who became the “great dissenters,” arguing for rights that remained unrealized for decades.

Yet, these two jurists would support some of the most abusive denials of free speech in our history. Holmes would supply the single most regrettable line of any opinion: that free speech protections do not allow citizens to shout fire in a crowded theater. That paraphrasing of his decision in Schenck v. United States continues to be used today as a rationalization for censorship and limits on free speech.

On free speech, Brandeis and Holmes were no heroes. Our true heroes are detailed in this book, a collection of true dissenters — anarchists, unionists, communists, feminists and others who risked everything to fight for their right to speak.

George Bernard Shaw once said “a reasonable man adjusts himself to the world. An unreasonable man expects the world to adjust itself to him. Therefore, all progress is made by unreasonable people.”

These are stories of wonderfully unreasonable people like Anita Whitney, a feminist who left a family of privilege to fight for social and political justice. The descendent of a family on the Mayflower and niece of Supreme Court Justice Cyrus W. Field, Whitney defied threats of the police that she would be arrested if she spoke in California in 1919 in Oakland.

With police standing around on stage, she refused to be silent and spoke against the lynchings of Blacks occurring around the country. Her abusive conviction would ultimately go before the court (with Brandeis and Holmes) and they would vote to uphold it.

Time and again, this country has abandoned our free speech values as political dissidents were met with state rage in the form of mass crackdowns and imprisonments. It is an unvarnished story of free speech in America and for better or worse, it is our story.

Yet, we have much to learn from this history as this pattern now repeats itself. The book explains why we are living in the most dangerous anti-free speech period in our history.

In the past, free speech has found natural allies in academia and the media. That has changed with a type of triumvirate — the government, corporations, and academia — in a powerful alliance against free speech values.

Ironically, while these groups refer to the unprecedented threat of “fake news” and “disinformation,” those were the very same rationales used first by the Crown and then the U.S. government to crack down on free speech in the early American republic.

The difference is the magnitude of the current censorship system from campuses to corporations to Congress. Law professors are even calling for changing the First Amendment as advancing an “excessively individualistic” view of free speech. The amendment would allow the government to curtail speech to achieve “equity” and protect “dignity.”

Others, including President Biden, have called for greater censorship while politicians and pundits denounce defenders of free speech as “Putin lovers” and “insurrectionist sympathizers.”

Despite watching the alarming rise of this anti-free speech movement and the rapid loss of protections in the West, there is still reason to be hopeful.

For those of us who believe that free speech is a human right, there is an inherent and inescapable optimism. We are wired for free speech as humans. We need to speak freely, to project part of ourselves into the world around us. It is essential to being fully human.

In the end, this alliance may reduce our appetite for free speech but we will never truly lose our taste for it. It is in our DNA. That is why this is not our first or our last age of rage. However, it is not the rage that defines us. It is free speech that defines us.

Assange has been imprisoned in the UK’s Belmarsh prison for the last five years after spending seven years in the Ecuadorian Embassy with questionable protection of political asylum.

n a drastic move to alter the face of military recruitment, Congress has legalized automation of the draft. Overnight, young men have found themselves staring at an uncertain future as critical life choices hang in the balance.

A recently presented draft reform has piqued varying reactions. On the one hand, its proponents argue that streamlined computerized drafting will modernize and humanize the country’s military selection process, forgoing errors and biases. Conversely, opponents apprehend this innovation might recklessly expand military involvement and coerce citizens into committing to the military against their will. To grasp the proposed transformations undertaken, let us delve into the inner workings of the automized procedure and any anticipated consequences surrounding the decisions being made and the potential fallout it might include.

A new political event featuring a myriad of political voices is aiming to protect Western civilization as the United States experiences “a pivotal moment” in its history.

The event, called Rescue the Republic, is being organized by Join the Resistance and is scheduled for Sunday at noon on the west end of Washington, D.C.’s, National Mall near the Washington Monument. Dr. Bret Weinstein, one of the organizers, argued that this event is intended to be a “defining moment” for this generation in the same vein as Woodstock.

 “Well, we are convinced that this is a pivotal moment in American history, and in fact, that not only is the republic in great danger, but western civilization is, and this is the moment in which we have to recover control over our governmental structures and return them to functioning in the way that the founders envisioned,” Weinstein said while previewing the event on The Jimmy Dore Show. 

Weinstein is set to be one of several speakers at the event, along with former independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr., former Democratic Hawaii Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk, podcast host Russell Brand, comedian Rob Schneider, journalist Matt Taibbi, psychologist Dr. Jordan Peterson, and Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI).

The rally itself aims to promote Join the Resistance’s “8 pillars,” including the U.S. using war as a last resort, ridding the country of state media control, enacting a “rational border policy,” and restoring “family sovereignty.
