“SHOOT THEM ALL” — MAN WHO THREATENED ICE AGENTS, NC POLICE PAYS THE PRICE Johnathan Trent Thomas was sentenced to 15 months in prison after threatening to murder federal officers and Charlotte Mecklenburg PD involved in immigration enforcement. Thomas called @CMPD multiple times in May 2025 claiming to be wearing body armor and armed with high-caliber weapons looking to target ICE agents or plain clothed officers in Charlotte using armor-piercing ammunition and night vision devices. He threatened to “shoot them all” if he saw anyone enforcing immigration law. Thomas also claimed to have Tannerite explosive all around his house and “could do a whole lot better than” April 29, 2024 — the day four law enforcement officers were killed in the line of duty in Charlotte. Undeterred, an ICE @HSI_HQ special response team arrested him at his Linwood home and seized three rifles, gas masks, a handgun and a variety of ammunition. ICE @HSI_Charlotte investigated the case with help from its partners at the @ATFHQ, Davidson County Sheriff’s Office, @TownofWaxhawNC Police Department and CMDP.

.@PeterSchweizer: "In China alone, we have identified more than 1,000 birth tourism companies that are almost exclusively focused on the United States." "You are looking at roughly 1 million 'U.S. citizens' who are being raised in the People's Republic of China today."

Absolutely heartbreaking that these tragedies continue to happen on our Commonwealth’s college campuses. If anyone is still wondering why legislation was passed like @salimforva introduced to make it harder to obtain firearms like the ones used today, this is exactly why. Places of higher learning should not be warzones. Virginia Tech was 19 years ago and we have still not escaped from this environment of gun violence at our schools.
