DOJ Indicts Two for Antifa-Linked Attack on Texas ICE Facility

TL;DR Summary
Federal prosecutors have charged two North Texas men with terrorism-related offenses for their alleged role in a violent July 4 attack on an ICE detention center, claiming they were part of an 'Antifa cell' that planned to target law enforcement with guns and explosives. The incident involved masked, armed individuals vandalizing the facility and shooting at police, resulting in injuries. The DOJ describes Antifa as a decentralized, militant movement with anarchist and Marxist ideologies, though defense attorneys argue that anti-government beliefs are not criminal. The case marks a significant legal action against alleged Antifa-related violence.
