ICE raids across L.A. spark backlash; Trump officials vow to continue operations

Odd that this wasn't expeditiously used back when rioters broke into the US Capitol.



Donald Trump's legacy:

Except unlike Donald Trump's legacy, Newsom didn't hold a rally where he told protestors to go somewhere to continue protesting.
:)
He had Bass do that.
 
It’s so completely obvious that’s the angle they’re going for.

You can see it in how the administration rolled out “riots” almost instantly - when protests were peaceful at the time.

And you can also tell it’s all for show as you watch them sit ringside at wrestling matches instead of actually governing - as they would be if there was an actual crisis.

Yeah, you can tell by their characterizations of the events.

This is Stephan Miller's wet dream!

I'm beginning to feel it's all fait accompli, but I hope I'm wrong.
 
It's good in my opinion that the Trump administration is going heavily after illegal immigrants in those so-called "sanctuary cities" where these illegals are hiding and where leftists are breaking the law by tolerating and protecting them from being rounded up and being removed from the country.

But you can clearly see the traitors they are, by waving their Mexican and Palestinian flags, how un-American they are. Large swathes of illegal immigrants, waving flags other than the American one, even after decades of being in the US. They still have not assimilated into American culture, remain foreign and illegal.

It's high time these traitors are being removed from the country and their leftist chaotic Dem loony backers shown their place by ICE, police and the national guard. Trump's doing the right thing here: cut deeply into the Democratic/illegal pork and flesh and excise the illegal traitors from there.
 
Nah - there are some instigators that just look for opportunity to cause chaos. No doubt they’ll flock to CA at this juncture.

Trump and this Administration have rung the dinner bell by escalating the situation.

You can almost pick them out if you’re at a peaceful protest. They look like the ones itching to start a fight and you can tell they aren’t a part of the actual “protest” - they’re just using it as cover for their own fancies.

Well, that's news to me. Thank you.

I'll guess I'll join MAGA in condemning them, then.

Needs a little more sturm and drang, dude.

Those few protestors brandishing Mexican and other national flags in the air are not helping their cause. It taints the protest as much as violence and mayhem. It invites backlash.
 
Just so the "libs" know:
Under a provision of Title 10 in the Code of Armed Services, the president may direct the National Guard to protect federal employees and property from a rebellion or the danger of an impending rebellion. When the President determines that federal property or employees need protection,
or to enforce federal law when local authorities are unable or unwilling to do so.
thanks for the info
 
So what is it? You posted it. It must have some sort of definition. What in the hell is “mainstream people?” Let’s hear it.
Mainstream people are the people who you hate

The rioters waving the Mexican flag are the racist Latino Nationalist wing of the Democrat Party.
They are demanding open borders and abolishing ICE.

Hard core "protestors" look for volatile events and flood the zone with their tricks and kicks. They are the anarchist/far left socialists/etc.
that look to escalate events

I think those who go too far and actually cause damage and harm others should be universally condemned.

Be as mad and angry as you want - voice that as loudly as you want. But you keep your hands to yourself. And off other people and other people’s property.

It depends on what flag.

Flags and signs and such don’t bother me in general. There’s nothing inherently violent or wrong about them.

Now, confederate flags or symbols of overt racism, etc - signs with overt racism or calls to violence - those bother me.

A Mexican flag? Nope. That wouldn’t bother me any more than an Irish flag, a Pride flag, etc.

I don't understand how you can support these loony Dem fringe people in L.A. etc --- who are supporting illegals, who are hiding there for no reason. Americans don't want that. They want these drug smugglers and rapists and other criminals deported. And even if they are not criminals in the common sense, they are still illegals and therefore criminals again, subject to removal from the country. Why are you tolerating this ? It doesn't make any sense. They are not integrating into American society, they wave their Mexican and Palestinian flags. They live in their own parallel societies, not in the US society. They are turning the streets of L.A into war zones with their chaotic behavior, trashing the city. They are not entitled to stay. And if they remain in the country, these illegals are already plotting their next moves: bring more drugs and meth into the country, ruin even more American families and lives. Murdering and raping more Americans. Real Americans don't want this anymore, that's why they voted for Trump in November and now the D loonies are seeing the results. They should not shield these illegal immigrants, but embrace the law-and-order measures in L.A. - because ultimately it improves their lives too (less drugs, better lifestyle).
 
Well, that seems a bit more sanguine than your last words.

Yes, I love you too Jay!
It is apparent it is not fashionable to demean you in any way.
You’re like the George Clooney of the DP bloggers. Can do no wrong.
 
They are the anarchist/far left socialists/etc
By definition anarchists are not a part of either “side”

They don’t want ANY government whatsoever.

It would really lend credibility to MAGA arguments to at least demonstrate an understanding of the political philosophies that get regurgitated ad nauseum.

It's nice to have an Austrian to tell me what Americans really want.

I mean, I could just look at the Americans out against this shit, right? But you tell me they don't want that. Are they being coerced? Is Newsome herding them into protests at gunpoint?

You should also, for the sake of tradition, bring up that they are disease-ridden rootless cosmopolitans.

You seem to be getting the information you know about the US and what’s going on in the US from some very biased sources 🤷‍♀️

The election results spoke for themselves.

American voters had enough of this bullsh#t, that's why they dumped Biden/Harris and elected Trump again, who said that he will seal the border and cleanse the cities from the 10 million illegals that Biden let in through his wide-open barn door policy (formerly called "southern border").

So, it's not me who tells you this, but the American people (80 million of them). They want this un-American treacherous behavior of these illegals to stop for good. Either immigrate legally and integrate into American society, or get kicked to the curb. No parallel society, no Mexican or Palestinian flags. If they want to fly these flags, they can go back to where they came from and wave 'em there !

Dems and the loony illegal-backers need to realize this. And realize it fast.

How about letting the residents of Los Angeles decide for themselves how to run their city.

In 2024 Trump received c 30% of the vote in Los Angeles County. He campaigned on deportations, and the voters here rejected that.

ICE storm trooper like tactics aren’t welcomed here.

Tell me more about what Americans think. I am sure RT can give you tons of talking points.

There are 332,000,000 Americans. Why would I want to talk to the 80 million that are stupid bigots?

War zones? Parallel societies? I'm sorry, are you a Freedom Party of Austria party member, or are these weird Eurocentric xenophobic opinions just so common and implanted in you from birth even the most "progressive" Austrians sound Hitlerite when they speak on issues of immigration?

I very much get your point about their flags under these conditions. I agree.

But it's at not all unusual many of us to display our cultural heritage with the flags of our family ancestors.

Here's some examples:

Just so the Trump supporters know: there's no rebellion.

Fox News is lying to you. Trump is lying to you. Stephen Miller is lying to you.

Trump doesn't get to just pretend there's a rebellion when there's no rebellion. His actions have to be consistent with objective reality. And this is true no matter how much you and your fellow Trump supporters hate Mexicans and anyone else from south of the border.

Yeah, the only people telling the truth are the anti-Trumpers. Lol
