Email from Tarrant County Republican Party   Contribute Today to Prepare for 2026! A Field Guide to Today's Protests Today is the big day of the much-hyped "No Kings" protests across the country. We'll see if they turn out to be as big as suggested. Our expectation is that they won't, at least in Tarrant County. We delved into the depths of leftist Reddit pages and Bluesky accounts to find out more, and many posts about the event had little interaction. It's also President Trump's birthday! You may have seen that certain leftist agitators in LA were handing out gas masks to rioters. One such agitator was identified and arrested. Alejandro Orellana, as he is identified, is a member of the far-left group "The Brown Berets." We were inspired to put together the field guide to our local paramilitary and other leftist extremist groups, which, if the protest today does get out of hand, are likely to be present. Let's get started. First, the radical left groups that have been confirmed as agitating in the LA riots, and their DFW counterparts: Brown Berets Freedom Road Socialist Organization Party for Socialism and Liberation (PSL) The man who was arrested for handing out gas masks was a member of the Brown Berets. Their local chapter was heavily involved in the local protests in Dallas recently. Our local chapter is led by a woman named Esperanza Tomeo. The DFW Chapter has over 67,000 followers on Instagram alone. The Brown Berets are a Hispanic organization modeled after the Black Panthers, which has been labelled a "black nationalist hate group" by the FBI. This Hispanic radical group is connected to the Freedom Road Socialist Organization (FRSO), another radical Marxist group that has a local DFW chapter. An officer of FRSO is listed on the advisory board for the Friends of Socialist China. Orellana, the man arrested in LA, was a contributor to their online publication, Fight Back News. The Texas Equal Access Fund, a partner of TCU's Women and Gender Studies Department, as we've covered before, is a partner with Freedom Road, the Communist Party USA, and more. The Party for Socialism and Liberation is a political party connected to the Chinese Communist Party. One of their officers is on the advisory board for the Friends of Socialist China. This organization was the one handing out signs at the LA riots. For further proof that this violent group is a threat to national security, Elias Rodriguez, the man who recently murdered Israeli diplomats in DC, was a PSL member. PSL's DFW Chapter is taking signups for activists to join anti-ICE "Community Defense Zones," if you need more evidence that they are a threat. You can find a deep dive into this organization HERE. All three of these organizations are likely involved in the protests we will see today. Be on the lookout for them! Now, on to other organizations putting together today's protests and those likely to be involved in them. Indivisible is a nationwide leftist network and is the main organizer for today's "No Kings" protests. According to their website, we have 6 Indivisible chapters in Tarrant County, with 14 chapters in the DFW Metro. As you can see here, Indivisible claims to be partnering with a group called "50501" to put on today's protests. This group, 50501, has a DFW chapter. On what they call their official Reddit page for the DFW chapter, they have a post calling for an armed mob of millions of liberals to surround the White House and capture Donald Trump. The post has not been taken down. These people are a threat to national security. These groups are the main ones directly connected to the riots. There are others that are allied with them that you may see, which deserve an honorable mention. Each is an avowed Communist organization, most of which have direct connections to the Friends of Socialist China. Our honorable mentions are: The Communist Party USA (CPUSA) Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) Socialist Rifle Organization (SRO) Both the CPUSA and the DSA have members who are on the advisory board for the Friends of Socialist China. They are official Marxist political parties with chapters in DFW. Because of this, it could be possible that Texas Government Code Chapter 557 applies to them, which would give the government special ways of cracking down on them. SRO is a sort of left-wing militia group. All of these groups run in the same circles as the organizers and agitators of the protests and riots we've seen this year, meaning you're likely to see them involved in events today. We hope this helps you better understand the network of subversive and potentially-violent activists attempting to destroy our county and our country. If the protests today turn violent like they did in LA and other major cities, just know that the Tarrant County Democratic Party endorses and supports this event! Leftist Suggests Assassination of Our Chairman One sign that we're taking control and achieving victory more than ever is that the Left has gotten more and more desperate. You've likely seen the violence in LA. Threats of even worse violence are coming to Tarrant County. Notorious leftist Shane Hardin, who has run for office against Matt Krause, posted a threat on Twitter this week, implicitly calling for Chairman French to be assassinated. You can see for yourself HERE. Threats of violence are ramping up on the Left even here in Tarrant County. But this is only because they know that they're taking ground and winning, and that they're backed into a corner. We will not be deterred. Their threats will not work. We will keep moving towards victory until Tarrant County is a conservative stronghold and inhospitable to Democrats. This is the only thing that matters. Lockheed Caught Racially Discriminating Chris Rufo released a bombshell report this week about racial discrimination against Lockheed Martin. Rufo published internal documents from the company, which seem to show that Lockheed took away bonuses from white employees to give them to minorities, which, if true, shows systemic racial discrimination. The report shows that the company handed out bonuses to employees explicitly by race and "contrary to documented performance." This report comes after President Trump signed an executive order prohibiting federal contractors from implementing DEI programs. This month, the Supreme Court issued a unanimous ruling making it easier for white, male, and heterosexual citizens to sue companies for discrimination. One wonders if we will see the Civil Rights Office come after Lockheed, a large federal contractor. You can read his full report HERE. Major Victory Against Catholic Charities You may remember our groundbreaking report last year regarding Catholic Charities of Fort Worth, namely that they received nearly a billion dollars from the Biden Administration to run the "refugee" program for the State of Texas. The report made waves at the time, receiving nearly a million views on X (formerly Twitter) and prompting a direct response from CCFW leader Michael Iglio. It appears to have made a wave even among the Trump Administration. This month, CCFW announced that they were shutting down the Texas Office for Refugees, the CCFW operation through which most federal refugee dollars in Texas were funneled. An article from Fort Worth Report notes that, of all 50 state programs, CCFW's program was the only one to have the Administration pause disbursement of funds to it. This is a major win. CCFW has been Tarrant County's number one organization pushing mass immigration in our state. We at Tarrant County GOP have led the way in fighting against the program, and we have won. It's time to go after the next target. We won't stop. You can read more about it HERE. Share The Roundup with Friends!
