We know what’s coming and we are prepared.
...
Adding on from a conversation with the Monument PD officer who referenced a bulletin the agency received as well as conversation with El Paso County deputies;
Callahan and El Paso County Sheriff's both doing shift change at 1600, going from a whopping 4 law enforcement officers in Northeast El Paso County to 0 for about a half an hour. Based on my observation Elbert County to shift change around then also.
Northeast Colorado Springs and Monument getting robberies and burglaries daily from both tweakers and Latin gangs impersonating food delivery, FedEx, and Amazon drivers. This particular officer lives in Elizabeth off County Road 13 and he's had Latino suspected gang members knocking on his door and then going around and checking the other doors and looking through the windows according to his security cameras.
All of El Paso County having vehicles broken into daily and the deputy recommended if we have a CCW and we leave our vehicle carry our gun don't leave it in the vehicle.
A cute little crime spree in southern Colorado Springs, Fountain, Security Widefield areas, where some group specifically went after law enforcement and military identified vehicles and estimates are at least 50 sets of plate carriers and helmets were stolen in a one week period.
Southeast El Paso County had incidents where Latino men were on dirt roads blocking them as if there's road hazard, sometimes putting out a cone or two, and then when people stopped they were ambushed from the right and left side and robbed. Advice given was if it does not look like official road crew with large barriers and large reflective signs to either push through people saying "stop there's a hazard" or if you could identify it early to stop turn around and go the other way, don't even take the risk of an ambush.
Overall theory from officer was that the cities have so much competition for crime territory that these people are coming out to the country to explore uncontested targets of opportunity.

🚨🔍 Where the Iran conflict stands: Trump says deal in days — Iran says 'speculative' — Strait remains closed
President Trump called off another round of nighttime military strikes against Iran, then pivoted to announce that a deal is imminent – possibly signed in Europe this weekend, with JD Vance representing the US.
🇮🇷 Foreign Ministry spokesman Baghaei says reports of a signing are "speculative." Most of the text was ready, but the US kept changing its positions. Iran will not compromise on its red lines. The Strait of Hormuz remains closed due to "illegal US actions."
✡️ Netanyahu's office claims Trump assured Netanyahu that any final agreement would require Iran to remove enriched nuclear material, dismantle enrichment infrastructure, limit missiles, and end support for regional armed groups. Israel says it is not a party to the deal. Trump has not publicly confirmed any of this.
⚔️ Reality on the water: IRGC naval forces confronted an oil tanker ...
In case you missed it:
President Trump just effectively announced that the US will be putting boots on the ground to take Kharg Island in Iran in the near future.
Kharg Island, which is one-third the size of Manhattan and located in the Persian Gulf, controls ~90% of Iranian crude oil exports.
That's roughly 1.5 to 2.0 million barrels of crude oil exports per day.
Trump specifically says this would be a "Venezuela" style takeover, where the US would take complete control of Iran's oil and gas infrastructure.
If this happens, it would be the biggest escalation of the Iran War yet.
We expect to receive Iran's response shortly.

🛢📈 — The price of Brent crude oil is rising again after the renewed American aggression against Iran. In fact, it has been going up since Trump promised new strikes on Iran will happen today
🇮🇷❗️ — The statement is regarding the closure of the Hormuz:
From this moment on, due to insecurity in the region, the Strait of Hormuz is declared closed to the passage of any type of vessel, including oil tankers and commercial vessels, and any traffic will be targeted.
In continuation of the evils of the criminal America and in light of the beginning of the attacks of that country's aggressor army on some southern regions in Hormozgan province, from this moment on, due to insecurity in the region, the Strait of Hormuz is declared closed to the passage of any type of vessel, including oil tankers and commercial vessels, and any traffic will be targeted.
The US claim that the ship passed through the aforementioned strait is denied.
