#apiii — Public Fediverse posts

Good, thorough look at the AP3 militia, particularly looking at their ties with law enforcement around the US, their really dangerous (for migrants) work at the Tex-Mex border, and their paranoid and violent vision for November.

From the article's summary:

- Militias After Jan. 6: Internal messages reveal how AP3, one of the largest U.S. militias, rose even as prosecutors pursued other paramilitary groups after the assault on the Capitol.

- Organized Vigilantism: AP3 has already sought to shape American life through armed vigilante operations — at the Texas border, outside ballot boxes and during Black Lives Matter protests.

- Close Ties With Police: AP3 leaders have forged alliances with law enforcement around the U.S. Internal files reveal their strategies for building these ties and where they’ve claimed success.
