Deep dives
Transgender man arrested for making threats and ties to alt-right
An Oregon man who identifies as transgender has been arrested by the FBI for making threats to kill transphobes. The man, who is also tied to alt-right extremism, posted to a trans women support group, expressing his frustration with being bullied by transphobic individuals. The FBI monitored his social media activity and found that he held racial hatred towards black people, immigrants, and Jews. The arrest was made after agents discovered his purchase of firearms. This case highlights the complex nature of the individual's identity and their extremist ties.
FBI's top ten domestic terrorists list dominated by left-wing extremists
The FBI's list of top ten domestic terrorists in the United States is composed mainly of left-wing extremists. The individuals on the list include communists, black nationalists, anti-war activists, and eco-terrorists. This raises questions about the portrayal of right-wing extremism in the media and underscores the importance of understanding the full spectrum of ideological motivations behind acts of domestic terrorism.
Local man offers to insulate pipes for seniors and disabled neighbors ahead of freezing weather
A man from Spring, Texas, named Josh Ubeng, made a Facebook post offering to help insulate the pipes of elderly and disabled neighbors in preparation for freezing temperatures.
