For years, the popular “LA Scanner” account on X presented itself as a simple, neutral feed with just scanner updates, crime alerts, and public safety notices. But now, the left-wing mask has finally slipped.
And what do we see underneath? A raging left-wing activist with Stage 5 TDS, an open hatred for law enforcement, and a not-so-subtle agenda to turn his 40K followers into digital foot soldiers for sabotage against ICE.
In a now-viral post, the account openly encouraged people to commit a federal crime – calling in fake reports to ICE in order to tie up their resources and “make them look like fools.” That’s not free speech. That’s incitement. That’s obstruction. And, as we mentioned, that’s a felony.

And here’s the kicker: the guy knew exactly what he was doing. His snarky “definitely don’t call in fake reports” phrasing was a wink-and-nod to his activist base. The intent was clear—and now that it’s blowing up in his face, he’s panicking.
For those that don’t know, filing false reports to a federal law enforcement agency is illegal under 18 U.S.C. § 1001. It carries up to 5 years in prison or 8 years if it involves terrorism-related targets. And according to Grok and legal analysts, it’s easily traceable thanks to SS7 signaling, ANI data, and VoIP tracing. Translation: You will get caught.
One X user put it bluntly:
“Food for thought in case anyone wants to try and commit a felony by filing false reports… ANI makes it easy to trace your line, even if you spoof your Caller ID.”
However, things took a turn for Mr. LA Scanner once the violence escalated in LA and once MAGA accounts started calling for his arrest and removal from X. LA Scanner panicked. He posted a desperate backpedal:
“I want to be absolutely clear: I do not support the violence currently happening… If you are rioting, you need to stop… But if you’re peacefully protesting the removal of immigrants… I support your right to do so.”
Look:
The sudden backtrack from felonious wink-winks to “safety is the top priority” wasn’t just weak; it was transparent. He knew what he did. He just didn’t think it would come back on him. But it did. Because this is what happens when the left’s emotion-driven activism crosses the line into actual crime. Their fake moral high ground crumbles the second the consequences hit.
Here’s where this all started – because this isn’t just about ICE. It’s about Trump Derangement Syndrome taking over another American who let his rage cloud his judgment. Take a look at this unhinged statement he posted in the wee hours of June 9th.
I am absolutely sickened by the actions of this administration. I cannot — and will not — stand by while Donald Trump tears apart families, lives, and entire communities. What he says and what he does are not the same. While claiming to target criminals, he is deploying militarized agents to job sites and detaining entire construction crews. An 18-year-old was reportedly forced to relieve himself in front of adult men—some potentially dangerous—while in custody. Others are being held in conditions that can only be described as inhumane: sleeping on concrete floors with nothing but Mylar blankets, crowded into facilities that resemble modern-day concentration camps. This is not justice. This is cruelty. Trump is dismantling a nation built by immigrants, for immigrants. Mr. Trump: Stop. End these actions now. History is watching.
Clearly, the person running this account has more than scanners on his or her mind.
But it gets worse.
While those violent far-left mobs and Mexican nationalist rioters were wreaking havoc in L.A., Mr. LA Scanner decided to up the ante by posting what amounted to a hit list. A list of ICE locations, published in the middle of a live riot. This wasn’t public info sharing. It was tactical incitement.
Over 1,000 rioters are attacking federal agents and Governor Newsom does nothing.
LA’s Mayor is actually attacking ICE.
The left desperately wants to pin “chaos” on Trump. But it’s their money — much of it stolen from taxpayers — that’s literally buying the riots. pic.twitter.com/Wue9m9pTcP

And it’s not the first time this kind of thing has happened from LA Scanner. (Read more: Revolver News, 6/9/2025) (Archive)
INSURRECTION: Democrat activists like Jack Quillin who runs the LA Scanner 𝕏 account doxxed federal agents and directed protesters to federal buildings before and during the riots. As a result, both the agents and the buildings were repeatedly attacked. Last night he began to realize that he was putting lives in danger stating, “I genuinely hope this doesn’t end in anyone losing their life” after posting the address of a federal agent. When he provided a list of federal offices in the LA area to protesters he made sure to remind them to remain peaceful. Quillin’s operation, NightSunTV, LLC, collected the names, addresses, photos of federal officials going as far as to build an interactive map that provided a real-time view of their locations throughout the LA area. I think it would make a LOT of sense @FBIDirectorKash to have someone from the FBI reach out to Quillin before someone gets hurt.

INSURRECTION: The Democrat activist that runs the LA Scanner 𝕏 doxxing federal agents has evidently been doxxed himself. Doxxing is just plain wrong – don’t do it. Let the FBI deal with Jack…

Jack Quillin – a fully vaxxed and boosted queer gen X-er who is too stupid to lock down his socials.
