Yeah Nah Pasaran #290 w Kels on Prairieland ICE & DFW Support Committee : June 18, 2026

Antifa is a domestic terrorist organization that has been allowed to flourish in Democrat-led cities — not under President Trump. Today’s verdict on terrorism charges will not be the last as the Trump administration systematically dismantles Antifa and finally halts their violence on America’s streets.

~ Former US Attorney General Pam Bondi, March 13, 2026

This week on Yeah Nah Pasaran! we talk to Kels of the DFW [Dallas-Fort Worth] Support Committee [Bluesky/Instagram]. The Committee was established following the Trumpist anti-anti-fascist action in response to a noise demo outside an ICE detention facility in Texas:

The case involves 22 people arrested for their alleged involvement in the events at and following a protest on July 4th 2025 in solidarity with Detainees at the Prairieland Detention Center in Alvarado, Texas, south of Fort Worth. The defendants face life-altering state and federal charges.

We spoke to Kels about the (ongoing) case, the work of the Committee, and its implications for political activism in the US.
