Trump: If Los Angeles or California Enters a State of Insurrection, I Will Put It Down

Yes, please do.


President Trump on Tuesday made clear he's considering stronger federal intervention in response to violent demonstrations in Los Angeles, sparked by a wave of federal immigration enforcement raids. While not committing to action, Trump said invoking the Insurrection Act remained an option if the violence escalates.

Speaking from the Oval Office, Trump detailed what he described as "terrible" scenes from the previous evening, alleging that rioters had ripped up sections of concrete from the streets and hurled them at law enforcement vehicles. "If we didn't get involved, right now, Los Angeles would be burning," he said.

The president has already drawn criticism from California Democrats for authorizing the National Guard's deployment to Los Angeles without the governor's consent. But Trump defended the move and hinted that further steps--including the use of federal troops--may be necessary.

The Insurrection Act, first passed in 1807, gives the president legal authority to deploy U.S. military forces domestically to address insurrections or large-scale civil disturbances. Trump used the threat of the Act during the "Summer of Love" riots in 2020, and on Tuesday, he suggested similar conditions may be developing in Los Angeles.

Don't tell the New York Times: Right now, there's a Conspiracy Theory that lefties are ordering full-face masks so that their street paramilitaries can fight the police even after tear gas has been deployed.

The "evidence" for this conspiracy theory is photographs and videotape of the antifa riot masks being delivered. In other words -- more RUSSIAN DISINFORMATION AI CHEAPFAKES!

Communist "mayor" and Frequent Cuba Tourist Karen Bass says the only way to defeat antifa terrorism is to obey each and every demand made by antifa terrorists:

JD Vance bodied flamboyantly incompetent governor Gavin Newsom:


JD Vance
@JDVance

Gavin Newsom says he didn't have a problem until Trump got involved. Both of these photos were taken before the president authorized the national guard to go protect our border patrol in California. Does this look like "no problem"?

jdvancetheproblemisyou.jpg

Newsom and his stooge Karen Bass fomented and encouraged the riots, because their entire political movement exists for one purpose: to promote mass migration into our country. It is their reason for being. Democratic leadership has no solution for the economy, for prosperity, or for security. They use their power when they're in the majority to import millions of illegal immigrants and when they're in opposition they do everything possible to prevent deportations.

Under Newsom's leadership, medicaid was extended to all illegal immigrants in 2024. This means that he elected to take healthcare from impoverished and disabled Californians and give it to illegal aliens. And now, everything is President Trump's fault? Give me a break.

If you want to know why illegal aliens flocked to your state, stop accusing Donald Trump. Look in the mirror.

If you want to know why border patrol fear for their lives over enforcing the law, look in the mirror.

It was your policies that encouraged mass migration into California. Your policies that protected those migrants from common sense law enforcement. Your policies that offered massive welfare benefits to reward illegal immigrants. Your policies that allowed those illegal migrants (and their sympathizers) to assault our law enforcement. Your policies that allowed Los Angeles to turn into a war zone.

You sure as hell had a problem before President Trump came along.

The problem is YOU.

Bonus: A good campaign ad for Gavin Newsom.

Bonus: A CNN propagandist got an answer she didn't like and didn't know what to do.

17 This is another 80-20 issue. The nation watched all the riots and destruction and violence of the last 20 years by the radical left and watched as police stood by, prosecutors jailed people who fought back and their cities burned.

80% of the country was angry and frustrated and wants action to shut down this crap.

20% of them want it to be expanded and to join in.

Guess which side the Democrats are down with, again.

18 Homan is on the most recent episode for Doctor Phil, first thing he says is that the raid that triggered the riots was against a furniture company that is one of the businesses being targeted for money laundering through the drug cartels, and tariff evasion.

Oh, and apparently they had trafficked kids working there too.

The raid where the mob showed up was Ambience Furniture.

33 Los Angeles is one of the most bland and character-less cities I have ever been in. It doesn't even have a famous street or section of town, all the known places are different towns like Hollywood and Beverly Hills.

There's no distinct architecture. Even the Hollywood Boulevarde that Mann's Chinese Theater and the stars on the sidewalk "Walk of Fame" is on is pretty much generic town except for one side of the street, and only the sidewalk.

The city has this reputation of being a sunny, beachy, cool place with hot people and its way inland and has nothing cool about it. Lots of pretty girls, though.

Ordinarily I am really pedantic and a pain in the ass about words and definitions, they are important to me. And I don't like engaging in the corruption of culture and language that the left does, even if it hurts them.

But in this case, flipping the tile with Insurrection is the right move. It shoves their rhetoric down their throats.

I'm probably mistaken but the Federal sites are being protected by the NG and Marines. That's why they were called up, for the most part. The local, county, and state police are taking care of the commie filth. If I recall, the Gov blowdried dipshit forbid the NG from doing anything, hence the Fed callup. I believe back in '92, those riots, the NG was called up to assist the locals. It was fine then. Different Gov, different time.

78 How a riot persists - it's NOT just that the rioters are not physically confronted.

It's that they don't get tired. because they are being organized and supplied with food and water.

Part of a riot is wearing out the other side. You'll never arrest everyone, but if you can tire them out and demoralize them, they go home. That is what the tear gas is about.

Gas masks, ear plugs, water bottles - these are elements of warfare, in that they prolong the violence. You need to focus on THAT. Don't just confront the rioter up front but find the vans supplying all the gear and food and water.

Oh, I agree, the sanctuary city policies are VERY insurrectiony and need to be dealt with. Harshly and strongly. And frankly, I'm disappointed in Trump for not yanking all federal funding from all states in "open rebellion against federal law" or however he would phrase it.

If they are coordinating with the rioters privately THAT is insurrection.

Trump to Newsom: "Please give my compliments to my friends in your State and say to them, that if a single drop of blood shall be shed there in opposition to the laws of the United States, I will hang the first man I can lay my hand on engaged in such treasonable conduct, upon the first tree I can reach."

Cory Booker was a sudden choice for a minute like 6 weeks ago. He's forgotten already.

These people are flashes in the pan, getting quick exposure and then fading, not nearly enough people remembering their names or why they were important for a second.

This pattern repeats every 4 years. Plus, Newsom has an approval rating of something like -27. Maybe he pulls off a 2nd or 3rd place in NH. Maybe. But that's after he comes 11th in South Carolina.

ICE might target the graduate ceremony of Santa Monica High School on Wednesday.

Stephen Miller is a graduate of SAMO and hates the school and particularly the Latino Community there. ICE officers were seen circling the area today, assessing accessibility and security options.

Vindictive prick. If you’re at risk of being picked up by ICE, I suggest laying low for a while. Maybe the school can arrange to have the ceremony broadcast over the internet.

did Miller flunk Spanish or something? What the hell is wrong with this guy? And why are so many Republican males so deliberately ugly?

I just can't. They are so evil. They want to destroy lives and hope and joy. They are killing everything that makes American life special.

If they weren't trying to instigate, these leaks wouldn't happen

CAncel the ceremony. Mail the diplomas. Put ICE out of their jobs if we ever regain power. Get anyone out of the way who won't go along with it

Send zero federal troops.

247 I've lived in L.A. and I'd go back if I found an opportunity, but it's true, most Angelenos stick to their area of the city, it's so sprawling and disjointed. It utterly lacks character as a city. I'm not sure how that happens. It's interesting to contemplate. (Giant characterless Asian cities are a different case.)
Posted by: Blonde Morticia at June 10, 2025 05:12 PM (TWzUj)

My theory is that a city needs some constrictions to grow fast enough in a small enough location to get a city character. NY is on an island, Boston on a peninsula on a bay, River fronts many times.

LA has plenty of constrictions but too many so it breaks up into a small cluster of townlets. The Harbor area is down by Long Beach

259 As a tool to restore electoral viability to the Dems, the riots don't make sense. Honestly, the most plausible explanation is that they are a manifestation of the left's mental health crisis.

The supporters of the protests are a motley (no relation to Mike) crew. One is The National Action Network (NAN):

"a civil rights organization founded by Reverend Al Sharpton, is funded by a variety of sources, including corporations, unions, and individual donors. NAN has historically received funding from major corporations such as AT&T, Viacom, Walmart, Comcast, McDonald's, and Coca-Cola, among others. Additionally, unions like the American Federation of Teachers and the Service Employees International Union have also supported NAN financially. NAN also receives funding from individual donations, with some prominent philanthropists like Robert F. Smith being long-term supporters."

262 I don't know if allowing rioting is insurrection.
---
What's the difference between ordering a state militia to attack a federal facility and permitting an informal state militia to attack a federal facility?

BTW, I like the recent federal clown judge ruling that Trump can't use the AEA to deport.

Which is basically "it can't be an invasion because there must be a declared invasion."

Who declares an invasion?
"Well, the President except I find that he must delineate a long list facts to support his declaration that is all-but a declaration of war."

Is that in the statute?
"Well, no but that's not the point. I am the law!"

He's basically saying Congress must declare a war, after response to an actual physical invasion by troops lead by the leader of another country, before the AEA can be invoked.

I got to go to Neijemagen Holland for the celebration of the Market Garden Allied campaign when I was stationed in germany with the Army. We had to eat in the french mess hall the first night we got there and it was disgusting. I walked up got my tray and stood in line. The first guy plopped down a big chunk of black bread on my tray. The second guy poured a big ladle of purple yogurt over the bread and that was it.


I tossed everything in the trash and went and got a c ration.

274 One of the Cali Riots funders is the State of California

"CHIRLA (Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights of Los Angeles) is funded through a combination of sources, including government grants, individual donations, and foundation support. The Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights website indicates that they are a nonprofit organization that relies heavily on individual donations to get their work done. They also receive a significant amount of funding from government grants, particularly from the state of California, with over $34 million in grants in the fiscal year ending June 2023."

275 lefties are ordering full-face masks so that their street paramilitaries can fight the police even after tear gas has been deployed.

… that should be comical. There is no filter or simple large particle filters on the $60 mask, which won’t be of much use against most gases.

282 Christ himself said that he did not know the date of the End Times, but he did say that he could tell us the season: The generation that is alive when Israel was re-established would not pass from the Earth before the End Times occurred. Israel was re-established in April 1948. I was about two weeks old when that happened. At 77 I'm one of the youngest of the generation of the Fig Tree. Almost certainly the End Times will occur this century. Let me point out that the next decade will be 2,000 years since the Crucifiction.
