Democrats incite insurrection over lawful ICE raids
The party that loves to claim to stand 'the rule of law' proved themselves liars yet again. In response to Immigration and Customs Enforcement enforcing our nation's rules with raids in Southern California, Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass encouraged insurrection. 'As Mayor of a proud city of immigrants, who contribute to our city in so many ways, I am deeply angered by what has taken place,' she said. 'These tactics sow terror in our communities and disrupt basic principles of safety in our city. My Office is in close coordination with immigrant rights community organizations. We will not stand for this.' Advertisement With that incitement, the mob took to the streets, threw rocks at ICE agents and lit fires. Just as with the 'peaceful protests' of the George Floyd riots, officials were slow to respond — it took the LAPD two hours to mobilize. That's because the Democratic leadership of Los Angeles didn't want the assault to stop. Advertisement More than that: Democrats don't want our immigration laws to exist. They don't want our border to exist. It doesn't matter that this philosophy was soundly rejected in the last election. They will continue to act like these laws don't and shouldn't apply to them. From Newark to New York, Chicago to Los Angeles, Democrats are preaching anarchy, pretending like ICE agents don't have the right to arrest people who are here illegally. Advertisement For four years, President Biden broke the law. He introduced various amnesties and apps, with no permission from Congress, to usher in 10 million illegal immigrants. Now Democrats are shocked, shocked, that President Trump is reversing this unlawful decision. Remember that the next time Democrats lecture about ignoring judges and the Constitution. They only believe the laws they want to.

Tusk's Authority Takes a Hit From Nationalist Win Before Polish Confidence Vote
Donald Tusk's premiership is reeling from a presidential election debacle that's left the Polish leader diminished in the face of a resurgent nationalist opposition. The defeat of Tusk's ally — who topped polls until weeks before the June 1 contest for the presidency — has sparked calls from some ruling coalition lawmakers for the prime minister to step aside. It's exposed tension that's been building in his pro-European alliance since it vaulted to power 19 months ago, ending eight years of populist rule.
