Episode: The Joint Terrorism Task Forces Have Begun The Antifa Crackdown
Date: September 29, 2025
Host: Jack Posobiec
Key Guest: Tyler Boyer (COO, Turning Point Action)
Main Theme:
This episode focuses on the nationwide activation of the Joint Terrorism Task Forces (JTTFs) in response to a surge in domestic extremist violence, the recent attack on an LDS church in Michigan, and the broader state of violence across America—dubbed "Bloody September." It also covers the breaking news of a proposed peace plan for Gaza, jointly presented by former President Trump and Prime Minister Netanyahu.

1. The Initiation of the Antifa Crackdown (05:00–07:20)

Key Points:

• Jack Posobiec announces the nationwide activation of the JTTFs by Attorney General Pam Bondi, praising the move as overdue and crucial for public safety.
• He explains JTTFs: “These are the fusion and ops centers for intelligence sharing. … When fighters move from one AOR to another, that’s when the different Joint Terrorism Task Forces can pick them up or drop them off.” (06:14)
• The activation targets coordinated efforts by domestic terrorist groups like Antifa, especially in hubs such as New York, Chicago, Philly, Phoenix, Dallas, Seattle, and Portland.
• Posobiec stresses the need for proactive, not reactive, law enforcement operations: “It’s still reactive, though. … We’ve got to keep the pressure on.” (06:44)
• Quote: “The people that are waging domestic insurrection against the United States of America … need to be rounded up. The financiers need to be shut down.” — Jack Posobiec [06:58]

2. Weekend Violence and the Attack on an LDS Church (09:28–15:12)

Key Points:

• Posobiec and guest Tyler Boyer discuss the recent deadly attack on an LDS (Mormon) church in Michigan (at least two killed, eight injured).
• Boyer points out credible evidence that the assailant specifically targeted Mormons out of hatred: “I don't think you drive a car into an LDS church and unload and start throwing out, you know, IEDs if you don’t have some kind of hatred for, for Mormons.” (10:15)
• Despite the attacker's lack of clear partisan ties due to Michigan's nonpartisan voter registration, Boyer suspects religion was the prime motive (10:50).
• Posobiec cites a local council candidate who interacted with the suspect, who reportedly ranted that “Mormons are the Antichrist.” (11:28)
• The attack is part of a string of religiously-motivated violence, joining other attacks against churches in September—termed “Bloody September.” (15:12)
• Discussion on the LDS community’s small size in Michigan and ongoing threats against religious communities.

3. Copycat Violence and Societal Breakdown (15:12–17:57)

Key Points:

• Posobiec suggests a copycat effect in recent violent acts: “Studies have borne this out… seeing these things in the news does tend to kind of push them [vulnerable individuals] over.” (15:53)
• Boyer adds: “Violence begets violence…people that see this, that are interested in attention in the sickest way possible, act on some of these thoughts that they've had in their head.” (16:33)
• He calls for a return to “godliness,” arguing faith helps communities weather darkness and evil: “Where that light is cast, sometimes there’s darkness that comes in with really evil people trying to thwart it.” (17:07)
• Both agree that the attacks are “demonic” and represent a battle between good and evil.
• Quote: “The very first thing that I tweeted out was that this is demonic.” — Jack Posobiec [17:57]

4. Defensive Action: The “Good Guy with a Gun” Principle (19:34–21:55)

Key Points:

• Boyer details how the attack was thwarted by a church leader who was armed, violating church policy against carrying guns: “One of the church leaders…was able to exchange fire with the shooter, [probably] saving dozens of lives.” (19:51)
• The armed defender was not a security guard but a member of the bishopric (church leadership). (20:59)
• Boyer calls for more trained, armed civilians to defend places of worship—a policy disagreement with some religious leaders: “It’s just another example of why it’s so important to carry, is that you have individuals who are sitting ducks…” (21:23)
• Posobiec points out Michigan’s “red flag” laws failed to prevent the attack, emphasizing that the ultimate defense is state force or direct action.

5. Broader Themes: Networked Violence and State Response (21:55–22:55)

Key Points:

• Posobiec returns to his framework of "network violence" and "open-source, decentralized, asymmetric civil warfare," arguing only “state force” can truly address it. (21:55)
• They briefly plug ways to follow Tyler Boyer and transition to the upcoming peace announcement.

6. Breaking News: Trump and Netanyahu Announce Gaza Peace Plan (23:03–51:40)

Key Points:

• Trump’s Address:
  • Announces an historic peace initiative for Gaza and the Middle East, with broad backing from Arab, Muslim, and European countries.
  • The plan includes:
    • Immediate release of all Israeli hostages (within 72 hours if accepted by Hamas) [Trump, 41:00]
    • Arab and Muslim states pledge to demilitarize Gaza and oversee police training
    • A new transitional authority for Gaza, no role for Hamas or other terror organizations
    • Phased Israeli withdrawal from Gaza, dependent on progress
    • Creation of a “Board of Peace” (headed by Trump) to oversee implementation
    • Broad international participation (Jordan, Turkey, Indonesia, Pakistan, etc.)
    • Tony Blair and other global figures suggested for the Board
  • Trump highlights American support for Israeli security, recounts his administration’s pro-Israel actions, and expresses hope for a lasting "eternal peace."
  • Emphasizes the Abraham Accords as a blueprint for regional cooperation.
  • Notable Trump Quote: “This is the closest we've ever come to real peace, not fake peace, not political fool's peace. If we can get this … solved, the opportunities for all within that vast region … are unlimited.” [48:30]
• Netanyahu’s Response:
  • Backs Trump’s plan, declaring it aligns with Israel’s five principles for ending the war and the “day after Hamas.”
  • Reiterates Israel’s priorities:
    • Return home of all hostages, both living and deceased
    • Full disarmament of Hamas
    • Demilitarization of Gaza
    • Israel retains security responsibility for the foreseeable future
    • Civilian administration in Gaza, not run by Hamas or the Palestinian Authority
  • Notable Netanyahu Quote: “I believe that today we’re taking a critical step towards both ending the war in Gaza and setting the stage for dramatically advancing peace in the Middle East.” [51:45]
