Convicted coconspirators spill insider intel on antifa at Texas terrorism trial
This looks less like justice and more like strategy.
Several coconspirators convicted in the first federal antifa terrorism case delivered tell-all testimony last week, lifting the curtains on the far-left movement’s operations during the trial of nine suspected antifa members.
The nine holdouts taking their chances at trial are accused of belonging to a Texas antifa cell that carried out a coordinated July 2025 attack on an immigration detention center near Dallas.
Authorities say that a heavily armed cell of antifa radicals opened fire that night on federal personnel. A local police officer was shot in the neck after he answered a call for help from the facility’s security guards.
Four of the defendants who have already confessed to their affiliation and are now cooperating with prosecutors testified last week against their alleged comrades as part of plea deals they had struck in exchange for reduced prison time.

Lynette Sharp, the first coconspirator to take a plea deal, told jurors on Wednesday how she and some of the other antifa operatives had met Benjamin Song, the cell’s alleged ringleader.
Sharp previously admitted to aiding and abetting Song’s escape by providing him with a disguise while he was evading law enforcement for over a week in the aftermath of the attack. Song, then a fugitive from justice, was the subject of an FBI manhunt and made the Texas Top 10 Most Wanted Fugitives list.

Sharp’s courtroom testimony connected the Dallas-area antifa cell through weapons training, various Signal chats, and reconnaissance conducted in preparation for the July 4 shooting plot, according to independent journalist Kelly Neidert.
On the witness stand, Sharp identified the defendants one by one, linking them through antifa groups such as the Socialist Rifle Association, a left-wing firearm club. In sworn admission statements, the convicted coconspirators attested that “many members” of the SRA consider themselves “antifascist.”
Sharp testified before the jury that Song, a former Marine Corps reservist, coached members of the area’s SRA chapter, including the codefendants, in tactical firearms training. According to Sharp, for instance, Song …
