The left returns to the 2020 playbook
We have needlessly gone through four days of rioting because local officials in LA are restraining the Police. What good is declaring a gathering an unlawful assembly if you don't allow the police to disperse it? What good is the mayor telling protestors they have no right to tie up a highway and allowing them to tie up the 101 Highway? Why are the police standing there while commercial grade fireworks are being fired at them? Why are looters going through downtown LA stores? Supposedly there have been 160 arrests since the riots began on Friday. By now there should have been mass arrests.
What really triggered the radical left?

The answer was right in front of us, courtesy of a writer for the LA times: Rachel Uranga
"U.S. Atty. Bill Essayli last week announced a pilot program dubbed “Operation Guardian Angel” that is intended to “neutralize” sanctuary state laws. The office identifies individuals with criminal records who have been deported and charges them with illegally reentering the United States, a federal crime.
The tactic focuses federal resources at the main place sanctuary rules have impeded the work of immigration agents — county jails and state prisons."

That is what gov Newsom, mayor Bass and that vicious mob are angry about. That is why they want ICE out of LA.
According to the US census the estimated population of Los Angeles as of July 1, 2024, is 3,878,704 people. Hispanics represent 47.2% of that population.

With nearly 900,000 undocumented immigrants (as per a 2020 study by University of Southern California Dornsife), many of whom have lived in the U.S. for over a decade, L.A. is uniquely vulnerable to immigration enforcement. About a third of Los Angeles County’s 10 million residents are foreign-born, and nearly one in five live in mixed-status households—where at least one family member is undocumented.

That would explain how a POS like Karen Bass got elected and why she says the answer is to stop enforcing immigration law. That is not going to happen. gov Newsom took it to Court and he just lost. President Trump has widespread support on deportation, border security and law & order. He will not back down and the best part is the DOJ is going to federally prosecute the rioters.
The old playbook:
Now the left which represents less than 20% of the population and stands in defiance of the will of the American people, seeks once again to riot and loot with a wink from democrat officials and zero consequences. In the left's favorite target cities Police took limited measures to put down the new riots. Police officers wrestled protesters to the ground in New York, used chemical agents in Atlanta and monitored large demonstrations in Chicago, where people vandalized vehicles and threw water bottles at them. More responsible Governors have taken preventive measures. The Texas governor, Greg Abbott, has called in the National Guard ahead of protests planned in San Antonio.
The protests are a widespread rebuke of America's immigration law and sovereignty. The President is unflinching in the war with the radical left. Agents are rushing to arrest undocumented migrants, and he has sent federal troops to work with them. National Guard troops accompanied federal immigration officers on raids across Los Angeles. The Marines will also provide security to ICE agents as they carry out their lawful duties. Eventually, the leftist protestors will want to provoke the troops in order to make it look like they are being brutalized. By the time that point comes, someone will likely be killed. In the meantime, the LA Police have treated them with kid gloves.
In other news:
The U.S. and China agreed to a minor trade deal they reached in May and pull back from some punitive measures.
Trump said he would restore the names of all the Army bases that were once named after Civil War Generals.
Five Western countries, including Britain and Canada, jointly imposed sanctions on two Israeli cabinet members.
The president of the Palestinian Authority, Mahmoud Abbas, called for Hamas to free all hostages.
A former student at a high school in Austria shot and killed 10 people on campus before apparently killing himself.
Mike Sherrill won the democrat primary for NJ Governor. She will face off against Republican challenger Jack Ciattarelli. New Jersey is, as usual expected to stay blue, however if Ciattarelli should win it, it would be a clear bellwether for democrats in future elections.

Good morning and welcome to the news.

The American left is angry.
Let's give them something to finally be angry about!
that's the maga version. trumpski is going back to their confederate traitor names, which is completely in character for him ...
No, it is a FACT.
They were Civil War Generals.
Someone else here did much better. He read every word of my article and only found one mistake. I assumed someone called "Mike" was a man.
Not bad, I'd say.
LOL. I dont remember if I read every word of your article or not, I usually dont read every word. As for mistakes, well, I havent got all day to break them all down.
"Mikie" Sherill is not called "Mike". The fact that her nickname is Mikie, and when she is in the news it is always pronounced MI-KEY, is part of the reason why I knew she was a woman.
As for Trump renaming military bases after confederate traitors, that conforms with his usual M.O.
You must have to have reached that point. Pretty sound reporting.
Thank you.
No one cares
LOL Mr Reporter. Your "Mike Sherrill" is Rebecca Michelle "Mikie" Sherrill , a female.
Give her my apologies
Such a really, really important detail!
They look for either a mistake or an angle every day. I'd say that if that trivia is all they have, I'm doing pretty good.
The others hide.

Can't refute the facts so go after the author. Hmmm
Keep enforcing the rule of law and keep forcing jefferson davis in california and others of his ilk to oppose it and side with rioters waiving foreign flags.
Yup, the midterms will arrive before we know it!
The Dems, at all levels, are providing the voters with a lot of really bad publicity by being on the wrong side of most issues that are important to the people, and awful optics for their ongoing support of violence and anarchy.
It is an 80/20 issue with American voters
BUT
As mayor Bass pointed out: the politics are different in LA.
"The Administration has claimed that these riots “constitute a form of rebellion against the authority of the Government of the United States.” In support of such a claim, it could cite many of the Democratic leaders and experts now denouncing the claim."

You mean like an....insurrection?
I mean just like.
I wonder what the outcry from the left would be if these insurrectionists in LA were treated the same way the J6 protestors were treated.
They would be claiming that the two things are not the same. They always have made that argument.
In that aspect they would be right. For the most part J6 was a protest. There was no major damage to be had. Unlike the LA riots where arson and attempted murder are happening all over the place.
But Democrats set the precedent. It would suck for them if that precedent was cited and the same actions took place against the participants of the LA insurrection.
Yes. One was a protest that got out of hand, the other a planned and organized riot that was allowed to go on for many months.
We are now seeing part 2 of the left's uprising.
What was being protested on Jan 6th 2021 ? All 50 states had certified their electoral votes and the count that day was a constitutionally required formality.
It would be like the team that lost the world series telling its fans to rally and protest the outcome a month after the series ended.
No, it wasnt a protest, Trump wanted them to effect the will of the Congress to affirm the electoral votes that had already been certified by the individual states. By any means they could. The breaking of the windows and entering the building was not just exuberance run amok, it was a pre-planned incursion intended to lead to intimidating the congresspeople. If they were just protesting why were they looking for Nancy Pelosi and Mike Pence?
A "protest" would have stayed outside.
Tell us how that is different from protesting the enforcement of immigration law?
Like these folks are?
Of course, we couldn't expect these folks to stay outside in such oppressive heat............../S
That's one unfounded opinion.
I must have missed it. What protest rule book states they must stay outside?
The Sanctuary Shithole laws go against federal law. Should have never been instituted in the first place.
And in typical liberal / democrat fashion, when things don't go their way, cities burn. This time it's LA with a possibility of other Sanctuary Shitholes following suit.
100% correct. They are no different than the southern states declaring state authority over federal authority.
It always was unconstitutional, but there was never a penalty written in. You can see what the city of Los Angeles has become. One could easily argue that only the wealthy or illegal migrants can afford to live in California. This has been festering for a long time. The governor and the mayor have left the rioters to roam the city and are daring Trump to put down the mob. They think the optics will shock the rest of us.
I think we are seeing the "penalty". Go in, enforce the law and let the left do what they do best. Burn their cities to the ground.
The DOJ will need to prosecute these cases, otherwise the protestors will continue to get away with it.
At a quick glance, there is evidence of attempted murder, arson, looting...
Start with prosecution of those who allowed it to happen....Newsome, and the LA Mayor.
Imagine throwing rocks and bricks at passing cars and commercial fireworks at police.
They will eventually kill someone.
As far as the Governor & mayor, they are right up to the line. We need they to take one more step.
That constitutes attempted murder.
The governor and mayor are fkng idiots.
"WASHINGTON — The House of Representatives voted Tuesday to scrap a Washington, DC, law permitting noncitizens to vote in local elections and overturn another local law curtailing law enforcement liability protections.
In a 266 to 148 vote with one present, the House moved to nix the 2022 Local Resident Voting Rights Amendment Act and ensure that only US citizens can vote in DC elections."

House passes bill to overturn DC law allowing noncitizens to vote
148 House members think outsiders are same as Citizens
They want them to replace our citizens.
The word from Maxine Waters is things are basically peaceful. She has been walking the streets of LA. She knows!

This clip sums up the modern left protest movement. Two walking progressives stereotypes preventing a black women from going to work:
Oh, and we can't forget this:
The funny thing is if Newsome got the situation under control there would be no need for the Feds to move in. Which makes it seem more ridiculous that he is spending time and energy to keep the rioting going than ending the riots so the feds would go home.
If newsome had this under control the raids would be done and California would have saved money. But no. They have to be fktards and make it much harder than necessary.
