According to a new report, the Federal Bureau of Investigation was looking into a possible plot by "anti-fascist activists" [aka Antifa] in the area of Tijuana, Mexico, along the U.S.- Mexico border.
On Monday, the San Diego Union-Tribune posted a story it said was based upon an FBI report. A Dec. 18, 2018, document was obtained by the newspaper.
The FBI report grew out of concerns that Mexican drug cartels planned to sell weapons to protesters, according to the paper.
The Antifa anarchists sought to “stage an armed rebellion at the border,” the FBI report said, according to the newspaper.

Meanwhile, Chris Cuomo of the Comedy News Network (CNN) alluded to the idea that Antifa is simply a bunch of guys just doing what they can to stop the violence instigated by the right by using violent words.
The document warned of “anti-fascist activists,” saying they “planned to disrupt U.S. law enforcement and military security operations at the US/Mexican border.”

Although the document was unclassified, the paper said that it was only meant for law enforcement's eyes.
It said the FBI document was shared on the condition that only part of it be used because the investigation referenced within it was still ongoing.
The law enforcement report said one goal of the project was to create training camps where activists could become “community defense militias, also known as autodensas.”

Chris Cuomo was unavailable for comment.
“Organizers planned for the camps to be used as staging platforms from which five person units would form to train anarchists in fighting, combat, and conducting reconnaissance, and then launch to disrupt U.S. government operations along the border,” the FBI report said, according to the newspaper.
“This is an information report, not finally evaluated intelligence,” the report cautioned.
“Receiving agencies are requested not to take action based on this raw reporting without prior coordination with the FBI.”

In other words, law enforcement must wait for them to throw the first "punch," so to speak.
The newspaper said that two people named in the report, alleged cartel associate Ivan Riebeling and American border activist Evan Duke, both denied any connection to any possible plot.
