Mayor Bass Abruptly Orders Curfew for Downtown Los Angeles

After four days of coddling rioters and attacking President Donald Trump for federalizing California National Guard troops, Democrat Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass suddenly turned law and order on the fifth day, announcing a curfew in downtown L.A. starting at 8 p.m. PDT Tuesday, giving about two hours notice. The curfew will end at 6 a.m. Wednesday. Residents, homeless, credentialed media and workers in the curfew zone are exempt according to statements by Bass and Police Chief Jim McDonnell.

The Trump administration’s efforts to enforce immigration laws in the sanctuary city and state of Los Angeles, California has been met with resistance by violent protesters and mockery by Gov. Gavin Newsom, Mayor Bass and many other Democrat elected officials.

Bass made the announcement at a press conference and followed with a post online where she still blamed President Trump, “I issued a curfew starting tonight at 8pm for Downtown Los Angeles to stop bad actors who are taking advantage of the President’s chaotic escalation. If you do not live or work in Downtown L.A., avoid the area. Law enforcement will arrest individuals who break the curfew, and you will be prosecuted.”

House Oversight to Issue Formal Document Request to Neville Singham Over Alleged Funding of CCP-Tied Communist Group Behind LA Riots — Subpoena and DOJ Referral Incoming if He Refuses to Cooperate

The House Oversight Committee is turning up the heat on Neville Roy Singham, the shadowy billionaire and alleged Chinese Communist Party asset accused of bankrolling the radical left’s most disruptive street agitators.

In a bombshell move announced on Tuesday, Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL) confirmed that the Committee will issue a formal document request to Singham over his alleged financial support of the Party for Socialism and Liberation (PSL) — the extremist Marxist group believed to be behind the violent anti-ICE riots in Los Angeles.

“Thanks to the investigative work of Data Republican, House Oversight will issue a formal document request to Neville Singham regarding his funding of a communist group linked to the LA riots and the CCP,” Luna wrote on X.

She continued, “IF HE REFUSES TO APPEAR, HE WILL BE SUBPOENAED, AND IF HE IGNORES THAT HE WILL BE REFERRED TO THE DOJ FOR PROSECUTION.”

According to a bombshell report by @DataRepublican, Neville Singham—a tech multimillionaire who resides in Shanghai, China—has funneled over $20 million into U.S.-based far-left organizations via dark money channels like The People’s Forum and No Cold War, both of which are openly pro-Beijing.

MSNBC Reporter Says Riots Are “Relatively Mellow” As Cars Burn, Explosions Go Off Around Him

This is it. This is the most ridiculous one yet. An MSNBC reporter went to downtown LA to report on the anarchy and chaos that rages on, and declared that it was “relatively mellow” while standing in front of a burning car with explosions going off around him.

With his gas mask hanging from his shoulder, the reporter proclaimed “it’s not chaotic, you know other than what you see behind me, it’s actually relatively mellow.”

The moment he said that, a flashbang went off on cue. He then claimed that the riot is “almost like a celebratory atmosphere, as much as like a confrontational one.”

Stand aside ‘fiery but peaceful’, we have a new king of riot memes.

Watch arrogant way NYC anti-ICE protesters mock mom begging them to let her get to work

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.

“I have a kid and I need to go to work,” the unidentified woman pleaded with a man and a woman after getting out of her car during Tuesday’s protests, where at least 80 demonstrators were arrested.

One of the demonstrators shot back, “These people are having their children taken.”

“But what about my kid?” the mom asked despondently.

Savanah Hernandez, a reporter with Turning Point USA who filmed the exchange, asked the two protesters how they felt as “white people … stopping a black woman from going to work?”

Grand Jury Returns Three-Count Indictment Charging Democrat Rep. LaMonica McIver with Forcibly Interfering with Federal Law Enforcement Officers – McIver Faces 17 YEARS IN PRISON

A federal grand jury returned a 3-count indictment charging Democrat Rep. LaMonica McIver with forcibly impeding and interfering with federal law enforcement officers at the Delaney Hall detention center in Newark last month.

McIver is facing a maximum of 17 years in prison for all three counts.

Last month a judge ordered McIver to surrender her firearms and said she cannot travel outside of the US.

Per US Attorney Alina Habba:

Today a federal grand jury seated in Newark, New Jersey returned a three-count indictment charging U.S. Representative LaMonica McIver with forcibly impeding and interfering with federal law enforcement officers. This indictment has a maximum penalty of 8 years for Count One, an additional maximum penalty of 8 years for Count Two, and a maximum penalty of 1 year in prison for Count Three.

As I have stated in the past, it is my Constitutional obligation as the Chief Federal Law Enforcement Officer for New Jersey to ensure that our federal partners are protected when executing their duties. While people are free to express their views for or against particular policies, they must not do so in a manner that endangers law enforcement and the communities those officers serve.

Today’s decision by the grand jury is the next step in a process that my Office will pursue to a just end.

Inside the secret LAPD club of Gavin Newsom’s nightmares… and their evidence a riot crisis was waiting to happen

Los Angeles cops have a private chatroom — and California‘s Democratic leaders won’t like what they’re saying.

The Instagram group ‘Defend the LAPD’ allows officers and commanders to talk freely about what’s really going on in the streets of America’s second-biggest city, where cops clash daily with anti-government rioters.

The Daily Mail gained exclusive access to the 8,500-member club and spoke to its organizers — and the views they presented were a stark rebuke to Gov Gavin Newsom and other leaders of the Democrat-run state.

Despite what their bosses say, LAPD officers broadly support the Trump administration’s deployment of the National Guard to protect federal buildings amid a wave of sometimes violent protests against immigration raids, says the group.

Members also expressed alarm at LA Mayor Karen Bass, a Democrat, for allegedly taking command of their control room, delaying the deployment of officers, and putting federal agents and the public in danger.

They also accused media outlets of one-sided coverage of the protests, by focussing on heavy-handed policing while overlooking the threat that some violent activists posed to cops and the public.

More broadly, they say the city has ‘quietly defunded’ the LAPD since the George Floyd protests of 2020, and that today’s force is understaffed, underresourced, and cannot handle the crisis exploding on the streets.

The revelations come as US Marines head to Los Angeles, as part of a federal strategy to quell the protests against immigration raids, which are a signature effort of President Donald Trump’s second term.

FIRM Radicals Lead Well-Funded Network Of Anti-ICE Pirates

The Fair Immigration Reform Movement (FIRM) believes it’s unfair to round up criminal illegal immigrants and expel them from the country that they have invaded. FIRM “forcefully condemns” what it is painting as the Trump administration’s “increasingly authoritarian and violent campaign against immigrant communities and the people of the United States.” 

I asked the far-left activists if they:  

› “Forcefully condemn” the violence against federal law enforcement officials who are doing their jobs enforcing U.S. immigration laws? 

› “Forcefully condemn” the criminals identifying as protesters who are smashing up and burning down private and taxpayer-funded property in a wave of lawlessness? 

› “Forcefully condemn” violent, illegal aliens roving the streets in search of their next victims? 

› “Forcefully condemn” the rule of law that the vast majority of Americans voted for?

FIRM representatives did not respond to my questions. Surprised? They also had nothing to say about where they stand on the actual terrorizing of communities by violent gangs made up of illegal immigrants insanely granted “asylum” by the Biden administration.

Fidel Castro Acolyte Karen Bass Is No Stranger To Orchestrating Organized Chaos

With riots and looting destroying Los Angeles (again), it is important to remember that the city’s mayor, Karen Bass, reportedly led a radical Cuban communist cell that was part of a group responsible for radicalizing youth and organizing chaos.

In the 1970s, when Bass was in her 20s, she led the Southern California cell of Cuban Venceremos Brigade — a Fidel Castro regime-linked organization and alleged terror group started to subvert the United States and proliferate communism. After working as a “brigadista,” Bass climb the ranks to become an “organizer,” visiting Cuba every six months.

The rioting, looting, destruction, firebombing, assaults on federal officers, waving the Mexican flag, burning the American flag, and the like in her city — deemed by Democrats and their friends in the corporate media as “peaceful” — coupled with the failure of state and local law enforcement to protect the the citizens of Los Angeles is far less surprising when put in the context of Bass’s reported violent revolutionary sympathies.

She actually let the cat out of the bag on CNN recently, admitting that Los Angeles has a “rapid response network” of agitators, adding, “if they see ICE, they go out and they protest.”

And that is exactly what happened. But, whether the rioters knew it or not, the instigating factor was not even deportations, as they claim, but rather ICE conducting law enforcement operations against drug traffickers, child abusers, robbers, human traffickers, assaulters, and those with history of domestic violence, according to the Department of Homeland Security.

Even if they were just deportation raids, that would still be a completely legitimate use of federal resources, particularly after, as Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth put it, “21 million illegals have crossed our border under the previous administration.” But Bass’s response to the law enforcement operations seems more intent on running an agitation psy-op than simply wanting millions of illegals to stay in her city.

“I am deeply angered by what has taken place. These tactics sow terror in our communities and disrupt basic principles of safety in our city,” Bass said in a statement. “My Office is in close coordination with immigrant rights community organizations. We will not stand for this.”

DHS blamed Bass and other Democrats’ rhetoric for violence against ICE agents.

Anti-Migrant Riots Erupt in Northern Ireland After “Romanian Teenagers” Charged With Sexual Assault

Anti-migrant riots have erupted in Northern Ireland, leading to 15 police officers being injured and four houses being set alight, after two teenagers, thought to be Romanian, were charged with the sexual assault of a girl. The Telegraph has more.

Two 14- ear-old boys appeared at a local court by videolink on Monday charged with attempted rape. The charges were read to them by a Romanian interpreter.

Violence erupted in Ballymena in County Antrim on Monday night after a peaceful vigil of hundreds of people was held in the town centre.

North Antrim MP Jim Allister said Ballymena had been “overburdened” by “unchecked migration”, which was a source of “past and future tensions”.

The victim’s family condemned the riots, which were reminiscent of the disorder sparked in England and Northern Ireland after the murder of three girls at a dance class in Southport.

Asking that justice be served “in the correct manner”, the family said that they were in “no way involved or condone any trouble that happened” after the peaceful protest.

New York Times’ Hypocritical ‘Tale Of Two Flags’ Coverage Encapsulates Media’s Seething Bias

As riots raged in Los Angeles on Sunday, The New York Times rushed to reassure readers that Mexican flags being waved by protesters were symbols not of insurrection or lawlessness, but of “pride in their heritage.” The Times’ sympathetic view of anti-law-and-order rioters is hardly notable, but comparing its glowing review of the symbolism and meaning of the Mexican flag’s use in the L.A. upheaval to its screeching hysteria over the Alito flags a year ago is a sharp reminder of just how biased the paper is.

Unlike many of the rioters in Los Angeles, Samuel and Martha-Ann Alito didn’t foment social unrest, throw rocks at police cars, hurl incendiaries, burn cars, or generally embroil themselves in more or less serious dust-ups with law enforcement. (Maybe they would have drawn a more favorable review from the Times if they had.) But the Times used Martha-Ann’s flying of an upside-down American flag (an age-old distress signal) in Jan. 2021 and an “Appeal to Heaven” flag (a banner with roots in the Revolutionary War) in mid-2023 as the launching pad for manufactured controversy aimed at destroying Justice Alito’s credibility — and the legitimacy of the Supreme Court.
