The Feds Are Investigating the Dark Money Bankrolling the L.A. Riots

The Trump administration is vowing to find out who’s bankrolling the L.A. riots because normal American people out there don’t like it when they’re tax dollars are misused to underwrite arson and looting. Taxpayers didn’t sign on to underwrite the left’s anti-American public spasms of insanity. Underwriting these bad actors with government grants is tantamount to forcing taxpayers to underwrite the protests by the loons of the Westboro Baptist Church. It’s insulting and ridiculous.

Fed Up with Migrant Chaos, Dutch Citizens Set Up DIY Border Checks

European voters are increasingly frustrated at establishment parties ignoring their demands for tougher migration controls. In the Netherlands over the weekend, a group of citizens gathered near the border with Germany near Ter Apel to stop cars and conduct asylum seeker checks themselves.

They decided to take action after ‘centre-right’ coalition parties blocked asylum reforms, prompting Geert Wilders to take his right-wing populist Freedom Party (PVV/PfE) out of the government.

Trump was right to send the National Guard to LA

President Trump called out the California National Guard, the first time since 1965 that any president has done so without a request from a state’s governor. It’s hard to see what other choice he had.

As ICE agents served a warrant to search a local business for suspected illegal immigrants, a crowd gathered. It quickly escalated from protest to riot, with cars burning, bricks thrown, and all of the typical hallmarks of an anarchic response to federal law enforcement. The rioting continued into the next day and ICE agents were assaulted and outnumbered.

At this point, there are few options. They could give up, go home, and forget about doing their job and enforcing federal law. That was the situation that prevailed for four years under Joe Biden, when millions were permitted to enter the country illegally and without consequence. America’s frustration with that state of affairs is a large part of what led to Trump’s reelection. Inaction on illegal immigration by this administration would mean betraying the voters on an issue Trump cares about.

Mexican President Threatened To ‘Mobilize’ Against U.S. Two Weeks Before L.A. Riots

Just weeks before violent riots broke out in Los Angeles in defiance of immigration enforcement, Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum threatened to “mobilize” against the United States after Republicans sought to tax remittances to Mexico.

One proposal in the “big, beautiful bill” would tax remittances sent by immigrants to their home country at 3.5 percent. Remittances accounted in 2023 for roughly 7.5 percent “of global remittance flows,” according to the Center for Strategic & International Studies.

US deploys Marines to Los Angeles as Trump backs arrest of California governor

LOS ANGELES/WASHINGTON, June 9 (Reuters) – The U.S. military will temporarily deploy about 700 Marines to Los Angeles until more National Guard troops can arrive, marking another escalation in President Donald Trump’s response to street protests over his aggressive immigration policies.

A U.S. official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said a battalion would be sent on temporary duty until more National Guard troops could reach the scene. For now, the Trump administration was not invoking the Insurrection Act, which would allow troops to directly participate in civilian law enforcement.

Restoring Law & Order is “Escalation”.

Mexico’s president is providing legal aid to the Mexican illegal migrants in Los Angeles who were recently arrested by ICE workplace operations.

The aid for detained illegal Mexican migrants is being provided via Mexico’s little-known network of consulates in many American cities. So far, there are no reports that Mexico is aiding any Mexicans arrested for rioting.

‘The US was our El Dorado’: Africans on Trump’s travel bans and taxes

When Essi Farida Geraldo, a Lomé-based architect, heard about partial restrictions on travel to the US from Togo as part of the travel bans announced by Donald Trump on Thursday, she lamented losing access to what many young Togolese consider to be a land of better opportunities.

“The United States was the Togolese’s El Dorado,” Geraldo said. “Many people go to work in the US to save money and support their families or projects in Africa … This will force the country to really develop stronger partnerships that exclude the US.”

Trump’s order, which is to come into effect on Monday, prohibits people from seven African countries – Chad, the Republic of the Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Libya, Somalia and Sudan – from entering the US, making Africa the worst-affected continent. People from another three African countries – Burundi, Sierra Leone and Togo – will be subject to partial restrictions, meaning they will not be able to travel to the US on certain visas.

Kilmar Abrego Garcia returns to the US — but not the way his supporters wanted

MS 13 Gang Member Kilmar Garcia

For two months, Democrats have agitated on behalf of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, an illegal immigrant, alleged gang member, and suspected human trafficker whom the Trump administration deported to El Salvador. Picked up by police in Maryland in 2019, Abrego Garcia was given a deportation order on the basis of his unlawful presence in the United States and gang activity. But the immigration judge specifically ordered that Abrego Garcia not be deported to his home country of El Salvador, where Abrego Garcia claimed he would be in danger.

You Won’t Believe What the Media Is Saying About the Anti-ICE Riots

Hell is not a donut shop.

Okay, you probably will. In fact, I am sure you expected it.

By now you’ve seen footage of the anti-ICE rioting and violence going on in Los Angeles. But here’s some select footage anyway:

Despite the obvious violence and destruction, the media is once again taking a page out of the 2020 BLM riots playbook, and insisting that everything is peaceful.

Trump Administration Sending National Guard to L.A. to Address Riots

The Trump administration revealed that it is sending the National Guard to Los Angeles to address the ongoing violent riots against U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents.

In a post on X, Leavitt revealed that President Donald Trump had signed a Presidential Memorandum that deployed 2,000 National Guardsmen “to address the lawlessness that has been allowed to fester.” Leavitt continued to point out that the Trump administration “has a zero tolerance policy for criminal behavior.”


Deranged Gavin Newsom calls threats to deploy US marines in California ‘deranged’

The California governor, Gavin Newsom, called the potential deployment of US marines in his state “deranged” after the secretary of defense threatened the use of such troops amid a promise to deploy the national guard after an immigration crackdown saw police use teargas on protesters.

“The Secretary of Defense is now threatening to deploy active-duty Marines on American soil against its own citizens. This is deranged behavior,” Newsom wrote on X.

Earlier Pete Hegseth, Donald Trump’s controversial and hardline defense secretary, had raised the possibility of deploying US marines onto the streets of the Democrat-run state amid the protests that had erupted in the wake of Ice raids in the state.

Trump admin officials blast LA Mayor Karen Bass’ response to ICE raids — as cops clash with violent protesters

Several Trump administration officials fired back at Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass Friday after she pledged to oppose federal efforts to nab illegal immigrants — as cops in her city had to use flash bangs to disperse the violent mob of protesters who descended on the arrest sites.

“We will not stand for this,” Bass said in a statement released after federal immigration authorities arrested 44 people in raids across Los Angeles.

Is the U.S. still a ‘safe’ country for refugees?

In the late 1960s and early 1970s, tens of thousands of American citizens sought, and gained, refuge in Canada. They weren’t technically refugees – most applied for landed immigrant status – but what they were seeking was, in effect, a safe place to avoid the draft during the Vietnam War.

The official policy of Canada’s “Department of Manpower and Immigration” was not to ask about applicants’ military status; these were mostly young, educated, middle-upper-class men, after all – making them precisely the type of “desirable” immigrant seen to offer benefits to Canada.


“Conservative columnists” who expect everyone else to foot the bill for their virtue signaling are tiresome.

There are precious few actual refugees if any fleeing the US into Canada.
