How far would Dems have let the LA riots go if Trump HADN'T sent in the National Guard?
Police in Los Angeles finally began moving to disperse the anti-ICE rioters late Saturday night — after President Donald Trump announced he was sending in the National Guard. Until then, cops were under orders to stand down as the 'mostly peaceful protesters' hurled rocks, bricks and fireworks at federal agents — also torching vehicles and physically blocking ICE enforcement actions. The rioters filmed their own violence, sharing it on social media. Advertisement And it all followed Mayor Karen Bass' incendiary words Friday as she slammed ICE raids taking dozens of illegal migrants into custody. 'We will not stand for this,' Bass declared, insisting ICE's actions 'sow terror in our communities and disrupt basic principles of safety in our city' and bragging that her office was 'in close coordination' with lefty 'community organizations' — an outright cue for the rioting to begin. By the time police finally got orders to control the chaos, they had to engage in running battles with the mobs in downtown LA and the suburb of Paramount. Advertisement How bad would it have gotten if Trump hadn't announced that 2,000 National Guard troops were on their way? Gov. Gavin Newsom denounced Trump's move as 'purposefully inflammatory' — a clear sign that he wasn't going to intervene and proving that the prez was entirely right to cut the pretty boy out of the chain of command. We'll never know for sure how bad Bass and Newsom would've let things get — but we do know that just months ago they were completely feckless in the face of a natural disaster. Were they going to be more aggressive in fighting fires set by their own political allies? Advertisement It's guaranteed that reinforcements for the rioters were on the way, from the nationwide cadres of leftist goons that flock to every outbreak of 'unrest' these days — the folks who in 2020 burned down much of Minneapolis in the George Floyd riots (after Gov. Tim Walz waited days to send in the Guard) and for months laid nightly siege to the federal courthouse in Portland, Ore. If you don't shut rioting down fast and hard, it keeps growing: Los Angeles learned that lesson in the 1992 Rodney King riots — though Bass and Newsom have either forgotten that fact, or don't care. Here's the thing: A Democratic president waved 10 million illegal migrants into the interior, and the nation responded by electing Trump to send the masses back home, starting with the violent criminals among them as well as those who'd exhausted their legal claims to stay. But plenty of Democratic pols still hold power — and are using it to protect the Biden-Harris 'legacy' against the Trump deportation drive even in these open-and-shut cases. Advertisement From Newark to New York, Chicago to Los Angeles, Democrats are preaching anarchy, pretending that ICE agents have no legal right to arrest people who are here illegally. Elected officials — from Bass to Newark Mayor Ras Baraka and Boston's Michelle Wu — are calling for 'resistance' to law enforcement. Rallying riots, in other words. Now they're calling Team Trump 'deranged' for moving to shut down the LA rioting. Progressive Democrats think they can still get away with memory-holing any and all evidence that doesn't fit their agenda. All the footage of that masked guy waving a Mexican flag as he motorcycled around a blazing car? You're supposed to just consider it another 'cheap fake.'

Trump Blasts LA Protests in Late-Night Truth Social Rant
President Donald Trump slammed protesters in Los Angeles challenging the administration's roundup of immigrants by Immigration and Customs Enforcement. Violence erupted Friday afternoon when police arrested dozens of protesters outside a federal building in downtown Los Angeles, where immigrants had been detained following ICE raids across the city earlier in the day. The Trump administration dispatched an estimated 2,000 National Guard personnel to quell the ongoing demonstrations. 'Great job by the National Guard in Los Angeles after two days of violence, clashes, and unrest,' the president wrote in the early-morning hours Sunday morning. Trump baselessly claimed that the 'Radical Left protests' had been carried out by 'paid troublemakers,' saying the unrest 'will NOT BE TOLERATED.' The president also took aim on Sunday at California Democrats Governor Gavin Newsom, whom Trump has called 'Newscum,' and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass for being 'unable to to [sic] handle the task' of keeping the peace in the city. His comments echo earlier remarks by Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem, who on Saturday firmly laid the blame for the ongoing unrest at the Democratic Party's feet. Noem has earned the nickname 'ICE Barbie' for dolling up for ICE raids and taking photos in front of detained migrants, among other publicity stunts. 'What do we do when we have guys like Hakeem Jeffries standing up in front of the world and saying it's ok to write 'Kill ICE', it's ok to throw things at law enforcement officers? It's not ok, not in America,' Noem said in an interview with Fox News. It follows after Jeffries publicly called for the ICE agents who 'physically accosted' Democratic representatives outside a detention center in Newark last month to be identified and held to account over the incident. Trump also railed against the use of face masks to shield from identification. 'From now on, MASKS WILL NOT BE ALLOWED to be worn at protests,' Trump posted, although presumably in reference to demonstrators rather than the ICE and Department of Homeland Security agents who routinely do so in order to conceal their faces from the public. 'What do these people have to hide, and why???' Trump raged.

Trump sends in troops in make-or-break moment for his immigration crackdown
Donald Trump's first presidency ended with city centres turned to blackened ghost towns. They looked not unlike Los Angeles on Sunday morning, where rioters had left graffiti and the ashes of burned cars in protest Five years ago it was a different cause. The US endured a long, hot summer of riots after police murdered George Floyd in Minneapolis, kneeling on his neck as he protested that he could not breathe. 'Looks so familiar,' Matt Schlapp, chairman of the Conservative Political Action Conference and a confidant of the US president, posted on social media. 'It's almost as if we saw the same tactics with a different radical topic and diff logo wear.' In 2020, Mr Trump threatened to take matters into his own hands if the country's governors did not stamp out violence, promising to deploy armed forces to quell the violence. Several states took heed and used their own authority to deploy their National Guard forces. This time around, as his immigration service takes a new, tougher tack in rounding up illegal immigrants, the president has not waited. With Los Angeles on fire, and protests growing in New York, he issued his presidential memorandum on Saturday night, in an effort to snuff out the violence before it could spread further. 'In the wake of this violence, California's feckless Democrat leaders have completely abdicated their responsibility to protect their citizens,' is how Karoline Leavitt, Mr Trump's press secretary announced it. 'That is why President Trump has signed a Presidential Memorandum deploying 2,000 National Guardsmen to address the lawlessness that has been allowed to fester.' One of the difficulties in 2020 was navigating the legal limits on presidents deploying troops on their own soil. Then Mr Trump floated using the nuclear option and invoking the Insurrection Act. It was last used in 1992, when George HW Bush used it to send troops into Los Angeles to control rioting at the request of California's governor after four white police officers were acquitted of beating up Rodney King, a black motorist. Using it without the consent of the state governor brings a whole other level of political jeopardy. Trump 2.0 has had time to find alternative tools. For four years his lawyers and advisers have planned for their return to power, legal-proofing policies that came unstuck in the courts first time round. So on Saturday night, they apparently used a different course of action and a little-known provision with Title 10 of the US Code on Armed Forces. It allows the deployment of National Guard forces if 'there is a rebellion or danger of a rebellion against the authority of the government of the United States.' It has not been used since 1965. The stakes this time are high. Mr Trump's opponents have struggled to cope with his 'flood the zone' strategy, unleashing executive orders, presidential proclamations and Truth Social posts at a torrential rate. The result is that Democrats in Congress and on the street have failed to coalesce into a united opposition. That could be changing with raids on factories, food trucks and the parking lots where foreign workers congregate to pick up a day's work on building sites. They offer a focal point in an already febrile debate over immigration, the freedom to protest, and the limits of presidential power. Los Angeles was calm overnight on Saturday, but more protests are expected on Sunday afternoon. Immigration groups in New York also have events lined up on Sunday and Monday. Against that backdrop, Mr Trump and his government of loyalists is gambling that sending in troops will end the trouble before it can spread and prevent months of riots, not create an even bigger conflagration.
