Left-wing cable networks CNN and MSNBC have spent the past week serving as public relations officials for the anti-ICE riots in Los Angeles, California. Both networks have almost exclusively described the turmoil as “peaceful,” while taking great pains to downplay or outright dismiss the chaos and violence.
The leader of a Chinese American political action committee involved in organizing upcoming protests against federal immigration enforcement under the “No Kings” banner is also a director of a taxpayer-funded group with extensive ties to Beijing’s intelligence network, a Daily Caller News Foundation investigation has discovered.
In the midst of the riots that have raged across Los Angeles in response to the Trump administration’s raid to apprehend criminals, Mexican flags have emerged as a prominent emblem of the rioters’ lawless defiance.
While the New York Times gushed that the rioters’ usage of the flag represented “pride in their heritage,” most Americans saw it for what it was: a symbol of conquest. But many leftists are now making that very argument, that it represents a reclamation by Mexico of land supposedly “stolen” by the United States.
Despite Carney’s vow to scale back immigration, the numbers keep going up — not counting those living here illegally
After several days of riots and rabble-rousing in response to the Trump administration’s ham-fisted determination to round up illegal immigrants, downtown Los Angeles was placed under curfew on Tuesday. The disorder has spread to more than a dozen American cities. There have been scores of arrests.
It has all made for great television and amusing political theatre, with Democrats shouting righteously about the rule of law and due process while ignoring their own support for “sanctuary” laws that undermine their own government’s capacity to enforce federal immigration legislation. Not to be outdone, Donald Trump’s Republicans have invoked the 18th-century Alien Enemies Act to back their plans for mass deportations. The 1798 law was about pirates.
The new dominant form of organized crime has shown its face in Los Angeles in recent days. Though it comes under the banner of “protest” and is whitewashed in the media as “mostly peaceful” and presumed spontaneous, a close observer can see that it is none of these things. It is in fact the result of a calculated civil terrorism movement taking advantage of Americans’ reluctance to treat criminals as criminals.
This is in Tucson before it became a riot. These aren’t protests against ice or for illegals. Listen to the chants. These are marxists. It’s about taking down America. They’ll use any vehicle to try to achieve this.

A Big Apple mom was filmed begging anti-ICE protesters to let her get to her job as they blocked traffic Tuesday — just for one to admit he didn’t care while sarcastically mocking her.
Just watched 2 white liberals stop traffic and tell a mother who was begging to go to work, that illegals and their children are more important.
I then asked them how they felt stopping a black woman from getting to work
They both laughed in our facespic.twitter.com/XA1zItqIHq

On June 1, Poland jolted the globalist movement, with Karol Nawrocki, a conservative historian and defender of national heritage, winning the presidential race in a narrow but decisive victory. His win is not an outlier but part of a broader European trend, in which voters across the continent have increasingly supported leaders who promise to defend their national identity and borders.
A decade after Germany threw open its borders to hundreds of thousands of Syrian refugees, it is time to confront an obvious truth: The open-border experiment has failed. The promises of humanitarian uplift, cultural enrichment, and economic growth have instead birthed troubling social fragmentation, deepening economic insecurity, and surging waves of crime that are reshaping the continent — and world.
Elizabeth Weise at USA Today decided to comment on the anarchy that’s currently raging across Los Angeles, and here’s her two cents: if you’re going to light other people’s cars on fire, at least make sure it’s not an electric vehicle, because that would be bad for the environment and your fellow rioters. (On the contrary: perhaps we can encourage them to stand as close as possible to the flames and take big deep breaths?)
What’s happening in Los Angeles is not a protest. It is a riot.
Violent mobs are attacking law enforcement, torching cars, and wreaking havoc in the streets because ICE did its job.
This is what happens when you turn a blind eye to lawlessness.

There’s a growing call across the US, loud, unapologetic, and long overdue: End all third-world immigration. Legal or illegal. Just shut it down.

After a day and a half of rioting in Los Angeles County, President Donald Trump activated the National Guard to protect federal officers and property. The riots were triggered by ICE’s attempts on Friday, June 6, to arrest a few dozen illegal aliens.
The president’s mobilization order, signed on Saturday, June 7, was clarifying and precise: “To the extent that protests or acts of violence directly inhibit the execution of the laws, they constitute a form of rebellion against the authority of the Government of the United States.”
Can someone please explain to me how ON EARTH it possible for someone in LA to riot for 5 straight days?
How does one endlessly riot…

President Donald Trump’s claim that ‘paid agitators’ are wreaking havoc in Los Angeles has raised questions about the protest groups and dark money flows from billionaires that may be behind the chaos in America’s second-biggest city.
Speaking with reporters on Tuesday, Trump described some LA protestors as ‘paid insurrectionist or agitator or troublemakers,’ suggesting they were financed by clandestine groups, which the president did not name.
His comments heightened scrutiny over the protests, which erupted in downtown LA on Friday in response to federal immigration raids and escalated into clashes with law enforcers, property being vandalized and rampant looting.

Los Angeles police say they have made “mass arrests” after a fifth day of protests over US President Donald Trump’s immigration raids.
Mayor Karen Bass declared an overnight curfew within a relatively small area of the city’s downtown district, saying businesses were being vandalised and looted.
Elsewhere, the immigration raids that triggered the protests last Friday have continued, with deployed National Guard troops now protecting border control agents on enforcement operations.

One of the oddest sights one can see in Moscow’s Red Square, aside from the artificially preserved and no longer even quite real-looking body of V. I. Lenin, are the tombs of most of the other Communist chiefs of the Soviet Union, all placed in a row outside the Kremlin wall. Joseph Stalin, Leonid Brezhnev, Yuri Andropov and Konstantin Chernenko are there, along with several lesser Soviet officials.

The past weekend saw one of America’s best-known and, for a long time, best-loved cities erupt in violent riots. Fires raged across Los Angeles as rioters waving foreign flags hurled everything from rocks and concrete slabs to fireworks and Molotov cocktails at federal law enforcement agents. Why? Those agents were tasked with carrying out the mass deportation agenda that played a key role in getting President Donald Trump elected a second time in a historic landslide victory. In other words, illegal immigrants waved Mexican flags, burned American flags, terrorized an American city, and assaulted officers of American law in order to… stay in America and not be sent back to the country whose flag they were waving.

Los Angeles is burning. Earlier this year, seasonal fires ripped through the Southern California city, but now, the fires are entirely manmade. In response to the Trump administration’s deportation policy, left-wing activists and opportunistic rioters have taken to the streets to vandalize property, incinerate automobiles, and assault law enforcement officers. The images emerging from the city are shocking: thugs hurling rocks from an overpass onto police; men spinning motorcycles around burning debris; a masked, shirtless rioter waving a Mexican flag atop a burned-out autonomous car.
