Kamala needs to mind her business.
As violence erupts across Los Angeles, former Vice President Kamala Harris is under fire for backing demonstrators accused of inciting chaos and attacking federal agents. Harris called the escalating protests “overwhelmingly peaceful” and slammed President Donald Trump’s deployment of the National Guard as “cruel” and “dangerous”—even as rioters clashed with law enforcement and set city streets ablaze.
Violent Protests Erupt Over ICE Raids in Sanctuary City
The unrest began after federal immigration enforcement operations conducted by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) targeted illegal immigrants, including those with criminal records. What started as protests quickly turned into organized lawlessness—featuring rock-throwing, Molotov cocktails, burning vehicles, and street takeovers in areas like Paramount and South Central.
Trump Responds With Action as Local Leaders Fail to Maintain Order
In response to the escalating violence, President Trump acted decisively, authorizing the mobilization of 2,000 National Guard troops to restore calm and defend federal agents under siege. “If Governor Gavin Newscum and Mayor Karen Bass can’t do their jobs… the federal government will,” Trump declared on Truth Social.
Many conservatives have applauded this move, pointing out that Democrat-led cities like Los Angeles continue to put political ideology above public safety.
Kamala Harris Refuses to Condemn Violence
Rather than calling for calm, Harris issued a statement doubling down on support for the demonstrators. “Deploying the National Guard is a dangerous escalation meant to provoke chaos,” she said, failing to condemn the Molotov cocktails, property destruction, and physical assaults on officers.
Her statement stands in sharp contrast to the growing calls for law and order from concerned Americans nationwide.
Democrat Leaders Push Back Against Federal Enforcement
California Governor Gavin Newsom demanded that the Trump administration withdraw the troops, accusing the president of violating state sovereignty. “We didn’t have a problem until Trump got involved,” he claimed—despite the images of firebombs, shattered windows, and street brawls dominating local headlines.
Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass offered a half-hearted rebuke of the violence, posting that while peaceful protest is protected, “violence, destruction, and vandalism will not be tolerated.” Yet her administration appears unprepared to contain the situation.
ICE Denies Activist Allegations of Detainee Mistreatment
Amidst the political firestorm, ICE categorically rejected activist claims that detainees were being held in abusive conditions. A spokesperson told media that such accusations were false and part of a coordinated misinformation campaign designed to discredit lawful immigration enforcement.
National Guard Takes Command Under Title 10 Authority
The U.S. Northern Command confirmed that approximately 2,000 California Army National Guard troops are now operating under federal authority to protect federal property and personnel. The legal framework, based on the long-standing Alien Enemies Act, enables the administration to act swiftly in times of national unrest.
Trump Stands Firm on Protecting American Communities
As left-wing leaders scramble to appease activist groups, President Trump remains focused on his promise to protect American citizens, uphold federal law, and restore peace in cities overwhelmed by sanctuary policies and soft-on-crime agendas.
Bottom Line: With cities like Los Angeles spiraling into violence, many older Americans see Trump’s leadership as the only force capable of restoring order in a nation under siege by radical protests and political cowardice.
