DEVELOPING: FBI Arrests Driver Who Went Viral for Delivering “Bionic Shield” Face Masks to LA Rioters in Early Morning Sting

The FBI arrested the man who went viral last week for distributing what appeared to be military-grade “bionic shield” face masks to violent demonstrators in downtown Los Angeles.

“ARRESTED: Alejandro Theodoro Orellana was arrested this morning by FBI Los Angeles on an allegation of Conspiracy to Commit Civil Disorders (18 USC 371) for distributing face shields to suspected rioters on Tuesday. We are moving quickly to identify and arrest those involved in organizing and/or supporting civil disorder in Los Angeles,” U.S. Attorney for the Central District of California Bill Essayli said in a statement.

The suspect has been identified as Alejandro Orellana, an alleged member of the Brown Berets, a radical Chicano nationalist paramilitary organization with ties to far-left revolutionary groups.

The group, long known for its anti-police rhetoric and militant activism, has reportedly embedded operatives in several major U.S. cities.

When is the FBI going to go after all the cell phone companies who have been making money hand over fist providing hordes of illegals with communications technology only the military should have, including integrated Spanish/English translation apps, turning them into a first-world tight-knit invasion force?

You never see one of them without that cursed phone in their hands. Not a one.

When are the communication towers/satellites going to get commandeered and temp disabled by our vaunted US military?

Our technology in the hands of neanderthals, allowing invaders instant access to everything they use aginst us--monetarily as well as physically.

How stupid are we, really, giving them access to all of these first-world tools, so they can use them against us?

And is our collective heart really into purging this country of their pestilential presence?

He was the delivery man - paid off.

The real question is WHO paid for those masks - which cost ≈ $60/each.

I’ve heard about them since the 60’s in Lost Angeles...

As an aside, a lot of this illegal stuff is due to rich L.A housewives who wanted cheap nannies and household helpers. They never asked questions. Same with small businesses...especially construction, and home services.

Why don’t they get a documented, federally, and state vetted “guest workers” program? Money sent back to home country would be taxed at nominal rates, and their work experience would count in their path to citizenship....maybe this could start after all the illegal criminals and social service grifters, and corrupt politicians are tossed out.
IMHO

Fox News did the original report. Lots of people on X were looking for him. Jones might have given it publicity, but did he uncover him?

Click for a slide presentation on the Brown Beret Movement. The presentation is very sympathetic to them; it's all about Latino Power. Specifically this...

“He was driving a new truck. Who paid for it?”

With President Trump in charge I am expecting answers to these kinds of questions.

This is a case that justifies the use of some of that federal power.

“””He’ll likely be released back on the street this afternoon.”””

Since the Feds got him I think he will be held for quite awhile.

That’s what I’m hoping for. “Put a little pressure” on him, and see what he has to say.

I doubt if you find the ‘big-money’ carrier.

We already know one of the billionaire funders is a Walmart heir, Christy Walton. If I recall correctly, she is a founder of the far-left group called "No Kings." She is a Walton by marriage, not blood, but is the widow of one of the original Walton's sons. She has no involvement with the Walmart organization, and they issued a statement essentially distancing themselves from her activities.

A representative article about her, this one from Forbes.

Wonder who is on his phone.

It would seem likely our intel assets know not only who is on his phone but what they talked about, as well as everyone else associated with the conversation - or at least in this day and age of technology we should hope so.
