Repeat illegal immigrant fentanyl distributor released by Portland officials pleads guilty in federal court
|
[THEPOSTMILLENNIAL] A 21-year-old undocumented Democrat from Honduras with a history of drug distribution has been sentenced to over six years in federal prison for distributing fentanyl in Portland, Oregon.
Bexon Javier Calix-Rivera, who was unlawfully residing in the city, received a 78-month prison sentence followed by four years of supervised release on Thursday, per the Department of Justice.
Calix-Rivera pleaded guilty to possession with intent to distribute fentanyl on March 12 of this year. According to court records, Calix-Rivera was first arrested in January 2023 after officers arrived at the scene of a drug deal in Portland. There, officers searched his vehicle and found thousands of fentanyl pills along with significant quantities of powdered fentanyl and heroin intended for redistribution. He was booked on state charges but released the next day.
In May 2023, Calix-Rivera was again detained after reports of a man threatening someone with a firearm in downtown Portland. Despite being arrested, he was released on his own recognizance.
Days later, officers observed him wielding a hatchet and conducting drug deals. He was apprehended by officers who recognized him from past encounters, but was once again released the same day.
''Officers attempted to detain Calix-Rivera, but he fled on foot,'' the Department of Justice said in a blurb. ''When officers apprehended Calix-Rivera, they seized fentanyl powder, a firearm, and $755 in cash. PPB officers booked Calix-Rivera in the Multnomah County Jail, and he was released the same day.''
In June of last year, a federal grand jury returned a six-count indictment charging him with possession of fentanyl, heroin, and cocaine with intent to distribute, as well as possession of a firearm in furtherance of a drug trafficking offense.

Somalia says three senior al-Shabaab leaders killed in joint operation
|
[ShabelleMedia] Three senior ringleaders of the al-Shabaab Khawarij group were killed in a joint operation carried out by Somali security forces and international partners, officials said Sunday.
The operation, which was jointly planned and executed by the National Intelligence and Security Agency (NISA), the Somali National Army (SNA), and allied international forces, took place on June 6 in the Ceelhareeri area of the central Hiiraan region.
Authorities did not immediately disclose the identities of the slain militants but described them as high-ranking figures within the al-Qaeda-linked group’s command structure.
“The operation marks another significant blow to the Khawarij terrorists as we continue to dismantle their leadership and operational capabilities,” a security official told AFP on condition of anonymity due to the sensitivity of the mission.
Al-Shabaab, which has waged an insurgency in Somalia for over a decade, continues to stage deadly attacks across the country despite sustained military pressure.
The Somali government has intensified counterterrorism operations in recent months, vowing to eradicate the group’s presence in rural strongholds.

Heavy clashes erupted Saturday in Hiran region as Somali army, local militia battle Al-Shabaab, push continues Sunday
|
[ShabelleMedia] Fierce fighting broke out early Saturday in Somalia’s central Hiiraan region after Somali national army forces and allied local militia, known as “Macawiisley,” launched a coordinated assault on Al-Shabaab positions near the village of Ceel Hareeri, officials said.
The clashes erupted in rural villages under Ceel Hareeri, an area recently seized by Al-Shabaab militants. Government forces, backed by local fighters, attacked the insurgents from multiple directions in an effort to dislodge them from the area, which falls under the Moqokori district.
In a statement, the Somali federal government said the assault was part of a pre-planned operation targeting militants who had fled earlier battles in the region.
“National army forces and the brave local fighters launched a large-scale offensive this morning on Al-Shabaab hideouts near Garas-Magan and Ceel Hareeri, successfully dislodging them from key locations,” the statement said.
Commanders leading the offensive told local media that Al-Shabaab suffered heavy losses in the operation and that several defensive structures, including caves and dugouts, had been destroyed.
The joint forces have recently ramped up operations in Hiiraan, aiming to push the jihadist group from rural areas where it has regrouped after recent setbacks.
The Somali government, which has stepped up its military campaign against Al-Shabaab since 2022, said offensives would continue in the coming days to reclaim full control of the region.
Somali army, local militias step up push Sunday against Al-Shabaab
[ShabelleMedia] Local militias known as Macawiisley, supported by Somali National Army forces, have stepped up operations against Al-Shabaab militants in parts of the Hiiraan region recently retaken by the extremist group, sources said on Sunday.
The joint forces are heavily deployed in and around the village of Ceel Hareeri, an area that had previously been cleared of Al-Shabaab after intense fighting but was recently overrun again by the militants.
Since recapturing parts of Hiiraan and central Shabelle, Al-Shabaab has reestablished a foothold, prompting ongoing clashes with local militias and army units trying to dislodge them.
The federal government has intensified airstrikes targeting senior Al-Shabaab commanders in Ceel Hareeri and surrounding areas in recent weeks.
The security situation remains volatile, with frequent skirmishes reported between Macawiisley forces and Al-Shabaab fighters.
Local officials say the military campaign aims to expand control over the region and prevent further militant advances.

Somalia: Puntland forces launch major operation against ISIS remnants in Calmiskaad
|
[Garowe] Puntland security forces, supported by helicopters, have launched a major operation in the Sadow Cave area near Sadow Well in the Baalade Valley to root out remnants of fleeing ISIS militants, officials said on Thursday.
The operation is part of ongoing efforts by Puntland authorities to combat the Islamic State affiliate, which has maintained strongholds in the Cal Miskaad mountains since 2015. Security sources confirmed that Puntland troops have regained control of large swaths of territory previously held by ISIS fighters during a successful six-month counter-terrorism campaign.
“The current operation specifically targets pockets where surviving militants are believed to be regrouping,” a senior Puntland security official, who requested anonymity, told Reuters. “We will not allow them to re-establish bases in Puntland.”
The offensive has included the destruction of caves and facilities used by the militants. Several ISIS fighters have been killed, with others captured, according to officials.
In recent months, Puntland forces have significantly weakened ISIS’s influence and activity in the Bari region. Authorities say operations will continue in the coming days.
Since December 2024, Puntland has made substantial gains against ISIS, clearing many strongholds and eliminating senior commanders, with assistance from U.S. and UAE partners, a statement from Puntland’s Ministry of Security said.

‘We'll do it ourselves!' Dutch vigilantes stop cars at German border in protest over illegal migration
|
[RMX] A group of Dutch citizens staged an unauthorized border control operation this weekend between Ter Apel and the German village of Rutenbrock, citing frustration with what they describe as uncontrolled illegal immigration.
Wearing reflective clothing and wielding torches, the group of around 12 men began stopping vehicles on Saturday evening along the N366, a key route between Germany and the Netherlands.
The vigilantes, who pulled cars over and even inspected trunks, say they took action because authorities are failing to secure the border and stem the flow of asylum seekers entering the country. "Nothing is happening. Then we’ll do it ourselves," said one activist, as cited by Algemeen Dagblad.
The action, although brief, drew sharp criticism from police and government officials. The municipality of Westerwolde and Dutch police released a joint statement declaring that "citizens are forbidden to stop cars" and that such actions "create enormously dangerous situations" and are "really unacceptable." The vigilantes are believed to have violated road traffic laws, though it is unclear whether any formal charges will be brought.

Anti-ICE Protest in San Antonio Hosted by Socialist Party Involved in Los Angeles Riots
|
[Breitbart] A protest in San Antonio was attended by more than 300 people who were angry with the latest Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) mass deportation enforcement actions. The rally was organized by the Party for Socialism and Liberation. This political party also organized and rallied leftist activists to resist the Trump administration’s efforts to enforce immigration law in Los Angeles.
Breitbart Texas observed that the protest in San Antonio, held on the steps of City Hall on Sunday morning, was attended by other activist groups that support the effort to abolish ICE and to call for an end to the agency’s operations to remove illegal aliens from the country. Flyers were handed out by members of the Bexar County Democratic Party, Women’s March San Antonio, and the 5051 movement, inviting attendees to a future anti-ICE rally the groups will host on Thursday. The flyers handed out advertised the rally, warning of “an alliance of white nationalists and the ultra-rich” that they allege has eroded democracy and seeks to cement power indefinitely.
As tourists and motorists passed city hall, chants, some vulgar, were shouted that included “F- ICE”, “From Palestine to Mexico, all walls have to go,” and “Up, up with liberation, down, down with deportation.” Many attendees waved Mexican flags, Palestinian, and Trans flags to show their allegiance to multiple left-leaning causes. Signs carried were printed with profane messages directed at President Trump and Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers.
Organizers allowed multiple attendees to speak to the crowd with messages urging the attendees to remain involved, help notify residents about ICE enforcement activities in the community, and to “fight back” against ICE. The rally comes as violent protests continue in Los Angeles. In an X post on Sunday, the national branch of the Party for Socialism and Liberation (PSL) continued to urge their members to “Take to the streets in protest” in Los Angeles as the violent demonstrations continue.
Breitbart Texas noted the signs provided and carried by PSL members in San Antonio were identical to those held by PSL members in the Los Angeles demonstrations. The crowd dissipated after several hours and did not involve any acts of violence like those witnessed in Los Angeles. Although San Antonio Police officers were posted nearby, no significant interaction took place between officers and the protesters.
As reported by Breitbart Texas, increased ICE enforcement activities and worksite enforcement actions have angered the Party for Socialism and Liberation and other left-leaning organizations in the city. One enforcement activity carried out by ICE included a warrant-based action that resulted in the arrest of several illegal alien workers on a state university campus in the city earlier this month.
Other arrests have occurred recently just outside the federal immigration courthouse in San Antonio after illegal aliens have had their removal cases dismissed by federal immigration judges. The case dismissals subject the illegal aliens to a speedy Expedited Removal process that allows ICE to remove them from the United States quickly.

I just heard a reporter on CBS call the summer 2020 riots the "George Floyd social justice protests". It would seem that CBS and Senator Booker are on the same team and the same page. Somehow it's all being coordinated and choreographed and it's all just as predictable as the sun rising in the east. |

KTLA on LA ICE riots.
Some police patrolled the streets on horseback while others with riot gear lined up behind Guard troops deployed to protect federal facilities, including a detention center where some immigrants were taken in recent days.
I wonder about the necessity for keeping those arrested in LA area detention centers. The badlands outside of Quartzite AZ are very nice this time of year, and the snowbirds have moved to nicer climes until next winter. It would be interesting to see who would show up to riot in that desert at 110 deg F.

"the LAPD can handle the chaos"
"Could handle" if the political leadership wanted the LAPD to handle the 'chaos.'
But the point of anarchotyranny is that police protection is withdrawn from ordinary people and extended to rioters to protect them from ordinary people. |

If, ICE is semi-successful, LA will lose about 1/3 to 1/2 of the 950,000+ Illegals (about 10% to 12% of it population).
Imagine what this would do to the already failing LA & California Retail Economy & Rental housing markets?
But let the Liberals that allowed and fought for this mess should have to deal with it without further backdoor US Taxpayer support.
BTW: Throwing bricks and other windshield penetrating items from over-passes amounts to Attempted Murder.
So, I see no harm in an appropriately applied lethal response. |

4 said killed by Israeli fire near Gaza aid site, but IDF says only fired warning shots; GHF gave out 17,000 food boxes, plus delivered 11 trucks of aid to community leaders
|
[IsraelTimes] Eyewitnesses say crowds came under fire en route to distribution center that was about to open; military reports troops fired when suspects approached them and ignored warnings
Hamas
..always the voice of sweet reason...
-controlled health officials and witnesses said Sunday at least four people were killed and others were maimed by Israeli fire around a kilometer (half-mile) from an aid distribution point in the Gazoo Strip run by an Israeli- and US-backed group.
The Israel Defense Forces said soldiers fired warning shots at people who approached its forces.
The deaths could not be confirmed, and Hamas figures do not distinguish between fighters and noncombatants.
The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation’s operations in the coastal enclave amid the ongoing war have been plagued by alleged deadly shootings for multiple days in a row.
It had earlier said it would open just one aid distribution site in central Gaza Sunday, after keeping its three sites closed the day before over what it said were threats from Hamas against its staff.
The bodies from the latest incident were brought to Nasser Hospital in Gaza’s southern city of Khan Younis, which confirmed the toll. Paleostinian witnesses said Israeli forces had fired on them at a roundabout in the nearby city of Rafah as they went to get food from a site run by the GHF.
The military said it fired warning shots at people it said were suspects who had advanced toward its forces and ignored warnings to turn away. It said the shooting occurred in an area in southern Gaza that is considered an active combat zone at night.
The GHF did not immediately respond to requests for comment. It says there has been no violence at the sites themselves. But it also closed them temporarily last week to discuss safety measures with the Israeli military and has warned people to stay on designated access routes.
Witnesses said Sunday’s shooting occurred at around 6 a.m., when they were told the site would open. Many had headed toward it early to try and get food before the crowds.
Adham Dahman, 30, who was at Nasser Hospital with a bandage on his chin, said a tank had fired toward them. "We didn’t know how to escape," he said. "This is trap for us, not aid."
Zahed Ben Hassan, another witness, said someone next to him was shot in the head. He said that he and others pulled the body from the scene and managed to flee to the hospital.
"They said it was a safe area from 6 a.m. until 6 p.m. ... So why did they start shooting at us?" he said. "There was light out, and they have their cameras and can clearly see us."
Though the UN has continued to distribute aid in the Strip while GHF finds its footing, it has complained that it has been unable to deliver much of its humanitarian supplies due to IDF restrictions on movements and because roads that the military designates for its trucks to use are unsafe and vulnerable to looters.
Israel and the United States accuse the Hamas terror group of stealing aid, while the UN denies there is any systematic diversion away from civilians. The UN says the new system is unable to meet mounting needs and allows Israel to use aid as a weapon by determining who can receive it and by forcing people to relocate to where the aid sites are positioned.
GHF says it delivered food to Gazan community leaders for distribution as part of pilot program
[IsraelTimes] The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation reports that it distributed another 17,000 boxes of food at three sites in Rafah and central Gaza today, a day after it said it was forced to shutter operations due to threats against its staff by Hamas operatives.
GHF says it also delivered 11 trucks’ worth of aid to community leaders for distribution in northern Rafah, as part of a pilot program that will see supplies delivered directly to Gazans, rather than forcing them to walk long distances and cross IDF lines in order to receive aid.
“We will be reviewing the operations and determining if this is a viable option moving forward,” it says.
Amid escalating tensions, the GHF reports it successfully delivered thousands of food boxes across Gaza “without incident” today, despite claims of IDF shooting near aid sites and explicit threats from Hamas against its staff.
“GHF is actively testing and adapting its distribution model to safely deliver the maximum amount of aid to the greatest number of people. We remain flexible and will continue to adapt distributions based on conditions on the ground, including road access, crowd pressure, and safety considerations,” continues the update, adding that the foundation is planning to open additional sites in northern Gaza.
John Acree, GHF’s interim executive director, adds, “Recently, we have started a women’s and children only lane to ensure they receive aid and today we piloted a direct-to-community delivery.”
Asked about the logistics behind the new delivery method, a GHF spokesman tells reporters that trucks delivered food “in population hubs outside of [the three aid centers], in order to reduce pressure on the main centers.” The spokesman specifies that “boxes are being distributed directly to people” as opposed to warehouses, to bypass Hamas operatives.
GHF said earlier today that it would open just one aid distribution site in central Gaza, after keeping the three sites closed yesterday over what it said were threats from the Hamas terror group against its staff members. The spokesman shares an Arabic-language threat from Hamas he says was received by GHF staff members: “This is your final warning: We are fully aware of everything you are doing, and all your movements are being monitored with extreme precision. You will not be forgiven for getting involved in projects that harm the dignity of our people and serve suspicious agendas under the guise of humanitarian work. Continuing down this path will have serious consequences, and you will bear full responsibility for the results of your actions. Stop now, or else.”
Addressing safety and security at the sites, GHF says, “Aid distribution at all three sites proceeded without incident.”
For multiple days in a row last week, and again this morning, there have been unverified reports of deadly shootings by IDF troops at and near the aid sites run by the Israel- and US-backed organization.

IDF says Hamas terrorist who stormed Nova festival on Oct. 7 killed in airstrike last month
|
[IsraelTimes] .Arafat Dhiab infiltrated Kibbutz Re’im, attacked Nova partygoers, says IDF; COGAT posts video of public Hamas execution in Gaza City, doesn’t offer information on circumstances
A Hamas
..always the voice of sweet reason...
terrorist who stormed the Nova music festival on October 7, 2023, was killed in a recent Arclight airstrike
...KABOOM! ...
on the Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with a rusty iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response ...
Strip, the IDF said Sunday, as Israel continued to target Hamas operatives across the Paleostinian enclave amid its widened offensive.
Arafat Dhiab was killed on May 31, the military said, adding that he was a member of Hamas’s Sheikh Radwan Battalion who infiltrated Kibbutz Re’im and attacked the nearby Nova festival during the October 7, 2023, onslaught.
In total, 364 revelers were murdered when Hamas Lions of Islam stormed the overnight music festival, including many more who fled the dancefloor to other areas near the Gaza border. Another 40 partygoers were kidnapped to the Strip.
Dhiab was also the chief of a Hamas-run cop shoppe in the Strip, the IDF said.
Separately, the military said dozens of Hamas operatives were targeted in airstrikes directed by the 98th Division on Saturday during operations in Khan Younis, in southern Gaza.
In northern Gaza’s Jabalia, the IDF said several operatives had been "eliminated" in an airstrike on a command center carried out by the 282nd Artillery Regiment. It published a video of the strike on X.
Prior to IDF confirmation of the strike, Paleostinian media had reported large blasts in the Jabalia area.
Dozens more targets, including weapon depots, tunnels and Hamas operatives, were struck throughout the day, the military said.
The IDF has warned several times in recent weeks that the Jabalia area is a combat zone, instructing civilians to evacuate.
Amid the heavy Israeli aerial offensive, the Hamas-run Gaza health ministry said that at least 104 people had been killed over the past 24 hours, including several near aid hubs in central and southern Gaza. It did not specify how all 104 had been killed or exactly where.
Figures provided by the Hamas-run health authorities in Gaza cannot be verified and do not differentiate between combatants and civilians.
Among those reportedly killed were 10 people that the Hamas-linked civil defense agency said were killed in an Israeli strike in southern Gaza on Sunday morning.
The Hamas-run civil defense agency in the enclave said 10 people were killed by Israeli forces Sunday morning.
Another five were said killed and dozens more maimed around 6 a.m. as they headed to an aid distribution center run by the US-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation near Rafah, said agency front man Mahmud Bassal to AFP.
"Around 4:30 a.m., people started gathering in the al-Alam area of Rafah. After about an hour and a half, hundreds moved toward the site and the army opened fire," eyewitness Abdallah Nour al-Din told AFP.
Asked to comment on the incident, the IDF said it fired on people who "continued advancing in a way that endangered the soldiers" despite warnings. It added that the area around the distribution point had been declared an "active combat zone" at night.
Bassal said another five people, including two maiden of tender yearss, were killed at around 1 a.m. in a strike that hit a tent in the al-Mawasi displaced persons camp in southern Gaza.
HAMAS CARRIES OUT PUBLIC EXECUTION
Earlier on Sunday, the Defense Ministry body in charge of Israeli-Paleostinian contacts published a video of what appeared to be a Hamas execution of a Paleostinian in Gaza City over the weekend.
The Coordinator of Government Activity in the Territories shared the video on its Arabic-language Facebook page along with a direct appeal to Gazooks.
"Residents of Gaza — the Hamas Lions of Islam and criminals are killing you and do not care about your lives," COGAT said. "There is no difference between a dictator who kills in silence and a terrorist who slaughters openly — both are your enemies and enemies of life."
"The shocking documentation before you is yet another desperate, failed attempt
...Curses! Foiled again! ...
to sow fear among the public in order to preserve Hamas’s rule, power, and governance, while trampling on and cynically exploiting the residents of Gaza for the sake of the survival of Hamas’s terrorist regime and its continued rule," the post continued.
It did not offer any information on the circumstances of the video.
The video can be watched here, with the victim blurred out (Warning: Graphic content).
