Attilatheblond's JournalSome US guns go south to drug cartels
And some US merchants have been profiting from supplying cartels with weapons. This merchant is now has a terrorism charge on top of his other legal problems.
Law & order Republicans, 
am I right?
Gray was initially indicted for six counts related to trafficking in firearms, straw purchasing of firearms, and making material false statement during the purchase of a firearm. This increased to nine counts in a new grand jury indictment recently unsealed.
More importantly, the superseding indictment shows Gray is now charged with one count each of Attempting to Provide Material Support to a Foreign Terrorist Organization (FTO) and Conspiracy to Provide Material Support to a Foreign Terrorist Organization.
The FTO referred to is the Jalisco New General Cartel, according to court documents.

Trump to deploy ICE agents to airports Monday
https://www.axios.com/2026/03/22/trump-ice-agents-airports-tsa-dhs-shutdown]Asked how a plan created in 24 hours could be well thought out, Homan replied: "How much of a plan does it mean to guard an exit to make sure no one comes through that exit?"
It takes four to six months to train and certify TSA officers, according to DHS, a process ICE agents have not undergone. There is no law mandating specific training requirements for checkpoint screeners, and the acting TSA administrator could designate ICE agents to fill those roles, former TSA administrator John Pistole tells Axios.
Curious about ICE attire for doing TSA gigs at airports: Will they have a dress code? Will they be told NOT to show up in masks, and all the military security blankie stuff they take comfort in? If they aren't forced to leave the masks, guns, flack vests, gas canisters at home, how will we tell them apart from any possible terrorists taking advantage of GOP bad planning?
Happy First Day of Spring! For those in Arizona or the Southeast California Desert...

https://www.facebook.com/reel/1162082209206992With the news about Zorro Ranch lately, interesting that there's a ranch on the AZ/Mexico border available now
Cochise County is looking into leasing it for a training center for the Cochise County Sheriff's Dept. The sheriff is a maga guy and the ranch is owned by Howard Buffet, longtime RW supporter of militias and the RW sheriff.
The ranch as been used as a staging ground for self-proclaimed militia border protectors in past years. The ranch is on the AZ/Mexico border in a sparsely populated area where there has been years of illicit doins, people, drugs, rapes of women coming into the US.
Now, with all this attention being paid to investigations of Zorro Ranch, it makes me curious that Howard Buffett has decided he no longer want to ranch and offered to sell or lease his borderland property.
Raised my curiosity as to why a county supervisor is pushing the idea of the County leasing the property and having it under the control of the Sheriff's dept. Evidently, the department already has property for range training. Curious as to why THIS property is being considered to the department's land holdings.

Hickman: Staying in the county, let’s pivot to something different. There’s been speculation about Howard Buffett’s ranch along the border. Terry Jo?
Neff: We’ve heard for months he might sell. Frank, you toured the property recently. What’s happening?
Antenori: The ranch sits right on the border. Mr. Buffett has invested heavily there and supported the sheriff’s office in various ways.
Antenori: What we’re exploring now is a potential 25-year lease to the county. It would likely be jointly managed by the sheriff’s office and county facilities.
Antenori: There are substantial structures — conference rooms, guest housing, training facilities. It could be used for deputy training, county conferences and retreats.
Antenori: There’s already a small range the sheriff uses for short-range training. We’re evaluating the full scope of potential use and cost. Staff will present a proposal, and the board will decide whether it makes sense.
I think it might be prudent to bring the sniffy dogs to have some walk-abouts on the property before the county pays to let the maga sheriff have this property put under his protection.

My cold ol heart is warmed that some kind souls donated to DU to gift me hearts. Thank you so much.
Throwing people off voter rolls is why Trump wants those state rolls.
Wondering: How many facing potential disenfranchisement are women?
And how many women will be disenfranchised because their 'married name' no longer matches birth name or previous drivers' pre-marriage license name?
The GOP, and Trump mob in particular, know women are gonna be a real problem for them. There has been talk of disenfranchising women for a few years now. The mismatched name issue could easily be the starting place for the disenfranchisement of millions of women.
GET THE PAPERS YOU NEED TO SHOW WHY BIRTH NAME AND CURRENT NAME MIGHT NOT MATCH? To it NOW!
Here is link to CDC site to guide people to links to use to get certified copies of vital records. Please share the link and why it is needed.
https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/w2w/index.htm]
If possible, set up ways to help poor women in your town afford to pay for any/all certified copies of records they need to prove why their names may now be different from the names on their birth certificates.
GOP knows they have lost the female vote in many places. They will try to keep us from voting. Do not let that happen.
Get the word out that women need to get vital records NOW. It takes time for states/counties to get us the docs we may need. DO NOT hesitate.
