密歇根州民主党众议员拉希达·特拉伊布因似乎为被指控的反法西斯组织成员辩护而引发强烈反弹,这些成员因袭击德州移民设施被判数十年监禁,联邦检察官称此次袭击是恐怖主义行为。

其中一名被告、前海军陆战队预备役人员本杰明·宋周二因枪击阿尔瓦拉多警察局中尉托马斯·格罗斯被判100年监禁——这是最高刑罚。格罗斯颈部中弹后幸存。

另外七名据称属于北德克萨斯反法西斯组织的嫌疑人因多项罪名被判30年至70年不等的刑期,罪名包括为恐怖主义提供物质支持、密谋使用武器和爆炸物以及暴乱。

“这些判决是一场闹剧,完全没有正当理由,但这恰恰是问题所在,”与“国会进步党团”有关联的进步派议员特拉伊布在社交媒体上写道。“美国人痛恨法西斯主义的特朗普政权,所以他们试图保住权力的唯一手段就是使用暴力。”

特拉伊布尖锐批评了2025年发布的《国家安全总统备忘录7》,该备忘录由唐纳德·特朗普总统在保守派活动家查理·柯克遇刺后发布,将反法西斯组织列为“国内恐怖组织”。

此次德州审判是联邦检察官首次依据该备忘录及将该激进组织与国内恐怖主义挂钩的行政令,成功起诉极左翼反法西斯运动成员的恐怖主义罪名。

“NSPM-7对我们所有人都是严重威胁,更多这类狗屁‘恐怖主义’指控还会接踵而至,”她补充道。

这些言论引发了保守派的尖锐批评,他们认为特拉伊布似乎在为暴力暴乱者的行为开脱。

“反驳一下:她的朋友枪击了一名警察,”保守派专栏作家库尔特·施利希特在社交媒体上写道。

白宫副幕僚长斯蒂芬·米勒回击特拉伊布,称其作为国会议员“为试图屠杀州和联邦执法人员的反法西斯恐怖分子辩护”。

“法庭证据证明,他们属于一个恐怖主义反法西斯组织,该组织训练并策划使用枪械实施暴力,”记者安迪·恩戈写道。“他们使用大型爆炸物引诱联邦探员和警察出动,随后朝一名警察颈部开枪。庭审中有五名叛变的组织成员提供了关键证词,详细说明了他们如何在反法西斯意识形态的旗号下组织行动。”

“众议员女士,我知道你一定很沮丧,因为你同情的这些恐怖分子这次没能逃脱惩罚,”恩戈补充道。

根据庭审提交的证据,被告们于2025年7月4日晚抵达该设施,携带枪支和军用急救包,身着黑衣并蒙面以隐藏身份。检察官称,该团伙随后开始破坏财产,包括一台监控摄像头,并向移民拘留中心发射烟花。

当设施内的警员拨打911报警后,阿尔瓦拉多警官格罗斯响应了这起有预谋的袭击,联邦检察官表示。根据庭审中提交的警方录像,可以听到宋大喊:“拿步枪来!”

随后他向格罗斯开火。格罗斯在庭审中作证称,一颗子弹穿过了他的肩膀和颈部。

“他们的恐怖主义行为、谋杀未遂、破坏财产以及向拘留设施发射爆炸物,绝非和平抗议或第一修正案赋予的言论自由,”北德克萨斯州联邦检察官瑞安·雷博尔德在周二的一份声明中表示。“我们将继续履行使命,追究北德克萨斯州境内实施此类暴力行为以及资助反法西斯组织的其他人的责任。”

宋的辩护律师辩称,他枪击格罗斯是出于自卫,称子弹是“压制性火力”,但主持庭审的法官马克·皮特曼断然驳回了这一说法。被定罪的被告家属辩称,数十年的刑期过于严厉,他们并未意图造成任何暴力。

Tlaib defends antifa members convicted in shooting of Texas cop, calls sentences a ‘travesty’

Benjamin Song received the maximum 100-year sentence after being convicted of attempted murder of a police officer

Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., sparked fierce backlash after her apparent defense of accused antifa cell members sentenced to decades in prison for a violent attack on a Texas immigration facility that federal prosecutors called an act of terrorism.

One of the defendants, Benjamin Song, a former Marine Corps reservist, was handed a 100-year prison sentence — the maximum punishment —Tuesday after being convicted of attempted murder for shooting Alvarado Police Lt. Thomas Gross, who survived a bullet to the neck.

Seven other suspects, allegedly of the North Texas antifa cell, were given sentences spanning 30 to 70 years for charges such as providing material support to terrorists, conspiracy to use weapons and explosives, and rioting.

“These sentences are a travesty and totally unjustified, but that’s the point,” Tlaib, a progressive lawmaker associated with “the Squad,” wrote on social media. “Americans hate the fascist Trump regime, so the only way they can try to cling to power is brute force.”

NINE CONVICTED IN NORTH TEXAS ICE ATTACK AS KASH PATEL ISSUES WARNING TO THOSE WHO TARGET FEDERAL OFFICERS

Tlaib sharply criticized a 2025 document, known as the National Security Presidential Memo 7, that President Donald Trump released in the wake of conservative activist Charlie Kirk’s assassination and that classified antifa as a “domestic terrorist organization.”

The Texas trial was the first time federal prosecutors successfully brought terrorism charges against accused members of the far-left antifascist movement following the memo and an executive order associating the militant group with domestic terrorism.

“NSPM-7 is a grave threat to all of us and more bulls— ‘terrorism’ charges like these are coming,” she added.

The comments sparked sharp criticism from conservatives, who argued Tlaib appeared to excuse the behavior of the violent rioters.

“Counterpoint: Her friends shot a cop,” conservative columnist Kurt Schlichter wrote on social media.

White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller fired back at Tlaib for “defending antifa terrorists who tried to massacre state and federal law enforcement” as a member of Congress.

ANTIFA MEMBERS INDICTED IN TEXAS ICE FACILITY RIOT, ATTEMPTED MURDER OF OFFICER

“They were proven at court to be part of a terrorist antifa cell that trained for and planned violence using firearms,” journalist Andy Ngo wrote. “They used large explosives to lure out federal agents and police before shooting one in the neck.The trial featured key testimonies from five cell members who flipped, detailing how they organized behind the antifa ideology.”

“Congresswoman, I know you must be very upset that these terrorists you are sympathetic to didn’t get away with it this time,” Ngo added.

According to evidence presented at trial, the defendants arrived at the facility on the evening of July 4, 2025, with firearms and military-grade first aid kits while dressed in dark clothing and face coverings to conceal their identities. The group then began to vandalize property, including a security camera, while launching fireworks at the immigration detention center, according to prosecutors.

When officers inside the facility called 911, Gross, the Alvarado police officer, responded to the premeditated attack, federal prosecutors said. According to police footage presented at the trial, Song was heard yelling, “Get to the rifles!”

He then opened fire on Gross, who testified during the trial that a bullet traversed his shoulder and neck.

“Their terrorist acts, attempted murder, vandalism, and explosives launched at a detention facility were a far cry from a peaceful protest or First Amendment expression,” U.S. Attorney Ryan Raybould for the Northern District of Texas said in a statement Tuesday. “We will continue in this mission to hold others accountable who perpetrate such violence and fund these ANTIFA groups in the Northern District of Texas.”

Counsel for Song argued that he shot Gross in self-defense, calling the bullet “suppressive fire,” which Judge Mark Pittman, who oversaw the trial, categorically dismissed. Relatives of the convicted defendants argued the decades-long sentences were overly harsh and that they did not intend for any violence to occur.

A spokesperson for Tlaib did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
