Karen Bass Declares a State of Emergency and Imposes a Curfew While Also Insisting There Is No Crisis At All

If there's no crisis, then it was illegal to declare an emergency, Cuban Communist.

Weird how there's a crisis when Bass says there's one but there's not a crisis when Trump says there's one.

Even more weird: It's the same situation in both cases. Bass declares a crisis then says that Trump is wrong to say it's a crisis.

It's Schroedinger's Crisis. There's only a crisis when and to the extent a Democrat allows there to be one.

Mayor Karen Bass announced a curfew for Downtown Los Angeles after five straight days of violence and mayhem that has marred much of the neighborhood around the federal buildings where immigrants rounded up in a series of raids are being held and prosecuted.
"The curfew will be in place from 8 p.m. tonight until 6 a.m. tomorrow," announced Bass, adding that it could last for several days and would be reevaluated tomorrow. "Everyone must abide by this curfew."
Bass said a "local emergency" has been declared and that the curfew was necessary because of what she called "extensive widespread vandalism" that includes profanity-laced graffiti scrawled on City Hall, an LAPD building, and rampant destruction in public parks and at private businesses. Bass said she was dismayed that 23 businesses were looted, while multiple historical landmarks in Little Tokyo along with immigrant-owned businesses, were heavily damaged.
Los Angeles Police Department Chief Jim McDonnell said that anyone who violates the curfew "will be arrested." The curfew's boundaries will encompass the area encircled by the 5 Freeway, the 110 Freeway, and the 10 Freeway and end where the 5 Freeway and the 110 Freeway merge.
"The curfew is a necessary measure to protect lives and safeguard property, following several consecutive days of growing unrest throughout the city," McDonnell said. "Since Saturday, we have seen a concerning escalation in unlawful and dangerous behavior."

Despite declaring a crisis empowering her to impose a curfew, this Communist Castro-Lover went on to the leftwing propaganda stations to insist there was no crisis at all, and if there is a crisis, the crisis is only happening because Trump sent in troops to protect federal property from the crisis.

Pace communist revolutionary Karen Bass, LA police seem to believe there is a crisis that they cannot control on their own.

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.
Clashes across LA have further polarized America's two main political parties, with Trump threatening to arrest Newsom, who slams the deployment of guardsmen as an abuse of power and an unnecessary provocation.
The LAPD, the official police union, and Mayor Bass's office did not immediately respond to our requests for comment.
A spokesperson for Defend the LAPD, which presents itself as a grassroots club for thousands of LA cops and their supporters, told the Daily Mail that officers of all ranks appreciate the backup of Trump's National Guard deployment.
'Everyone supports all the help they can get,' said the spokesperson.
'We need the help from other agencies, because we can't handle it. Our asses are being handed to us on a platter.'
While Gov Newsom says the National Guard are not needed and part of Trump's 'manufactured' crisis, the spokesperson said this was 'not true,' and that extra boots helped keep the streets safe.
'They're here because we don't have enough personnel, after all the back door defunding they have done for years,' said the spokesperson.

John Sexton has a post rounding up all the Democrat-Media Party propagandists who insist that, despite what you can see with your own eyes, there is no violence or chaos in Los Angeles.

And then they add, as usual:

The thing you can see is happening is not happening,

but if it is happening, it's good that it's happening,

and it's all Trump's fault anyway.

CNN's head of media propaganda operations Tater continues insisting that there are no cars burning in LA, and even if you see video of cars burning in LA, those are from several hours ago so you should ignore them as Old News.

@brianstelter
Offline, in real-world Los Angeles, most Angelenos are having a perfectly normal day.
But online, the fires and riots are still raging.
Seeking clicks, clout and chaos, unvetted social media accounts are preying on fears about where last weekend's clashes will lead...

Last weekend's clashes? Karen Bass declared an emergency and a curfew last fucking night.

Maxine Waters: There is no violence, and also, the violence is Trump's fault.

Nancy Pelosi: Where you see violence and cars burning like a once-great American city has become a Muslim no-go banlieu in France, I see an "exuberance of hope and joy."

Here's more "exuberance," as Nancy Pelosi terms it.

Mike Barnicle: The videos you're seeing are "not really accurate," you should listen to the people who constantly gaslight you to tell you what is really going on. Ignore what you can see on videos, trust the people who told you that covid was created when a bat frigged a pangolin.

MSNBC’s Mike Barnicle: The pictures you’re seeing out of LA "tell a story that's not really accurate."

And of course this unfunny fat stubby clown insists there are no riots at all:

Late Night Propaganda: Kimmel says LA 'protests' are mostly peaceful: “There's no riot outside." pic.twitter.com/Z9iTSmXLhv
— Western Lensman (@WesternLensman) June 11, 2025

In case you can't bear watching this disgusting fatbody, here are the lies he told.

Los Angeles-based comedian Jimmy Kimmel told his audience on Tuesday that "there's no riots outside" and slammed "mentally ill" President Donald Trump for deploying troops to quell what he claims is exaggerated unrest in the city.
Trump sent over 700 Marines to Los Angeles in an effort to quash anti-ICE protests that have ravaged parts of the city on Tuesday. Images from L.A. showcase masked protesters blocking roads, destroying vehicles and engaging with police, while Mayor Karen Bass issued a curfew for a portion of the city's downtown area.
Kimmel mocked the media for portraying the anti-ICE protests as "some kind of totalitarian hellscape" and condemned the Trump administration for deporting "people who have lived here their whole lives."
"You won't see this elsewhere on television. Not only is it not an apocalypse, they're having a Disney/Pixar movie premiere for 'Elio,' a movie about aliens. Don't tell Trump -- he'll send in the Green Berets, too," Kimmel ribbed. "But I just want to say, thank God for President Trump and the heroes at ICE for protecting us from these bloodthirsty fruit stand vendors spreading their dangerous pineapple chunks and mangos with a squirt of lime all over the city."
The late-night host vented his anger towards the ICE raids in the city, claiming that the "vast majority" of those being deported have "never done anything wrong."
"People who have lived here their whole lives, people who have been in this city longer than I have, the vast majority of whom have never done anything wrong, are being abducted, which is the correct word to use, by agents in masks, hiding their identities, grabbing people off the street and at work, sending people to detention centers," he claimed.
Kimmel asserted that it's not only Los Angelenos' right to protest the deportations, but it's their "responsibility."
"Los Angelenos gathered to demonstrate and, with very few exceptions, peacefully demonstrate to voice their opposition to this disgusting and unnecessary abuse of power instigated by our mentally ill president, who is dead-set on exacerbating this, who actually wants conflict, who is intentionally inflaming and lying to make it seem like there's a war going on," he charged.

He showed video from just outside his studio -- one of the most policed areas in LA -- to prove that there weren't riots anywhere in LA.

He did not think that disappointed Trump supporters who saw a lot of shenanigans on election night 2020 had the "responsibility" to protest. He condemned them as "scumbags" and declared them to be un-American.

Jimmy Kimmel didn't mince words during his opening monologue Wednesday night as he discussed the far-right mob that invaded the U.S. Capitol building. He didn't just go after the terrorists who occupied the Capitol all day -- he also went after the Republicans in the government who incited them to violence.
"It was a terrible day in the history of this country. Our President and the scumbags who have kept this 'stolen election' charade going -- and that's you, Josh Hawley, that's you, Ted Cruz -- either intentionally or just wildly irresponsibly lit these fires to start a war just to distract us from the fact that Donald Trump lost the election," Kimmel said.
"Ted Cruz, this guy doesn't even believe the election was stolen. He knows better than that. He is so hungry for political power. He's so desperate to be liked and supported by these nuts who think Joe Biden is a Chinese agent and Satan is trying to force them to wear masks to the mall, so that one day he can be President. He's willing to roll the dice on a civil war."

I'm now wiling to roll those dice, pea-dick.

But, Kimmel wanted to stress, it wasn't just Cruz who was rolling those dice.
"Same with Josh Hawley, who had a friendly wave with the invaders today. Same with Kevin McCarthy and Rudy Giuliani, Jim Jordan, Devin Nunes, and especially Donald Trump," he said.
But Kimmel wasn't content with just calling them out.
"These people are not Americans. There is no 'we the people.' 'There's 'me the people' and that's it," Kimmel said bitterly.

And now he says there are no riots, and if there are riots, it's people's "responsibility" to riot.

Parsons was Winston's fellow-employee at the Ministry of Truth. He was a fattish but active man of paralysing stupidity, a mass of imbecile enthusiasms -- one of those completely unquestioning, devoted drudges on whom, more even than on the Thought Police, the stability of the Party depended.
-- George Orwell, 1984

Many people are noticing that the media, which just insisted that it had nothing at all to do with the "Cheapfakes" hoax to cover up Biden's obvious, caught-on-video cognitive decline is engaging in a Cheapfakes 2.0 hoax, claiming, just as they did with Biden, that you can't trust what you see on video, you have to listen to the left-wing "experts" who will "contextualize" what is plainly evident and convince you that you didn't see what you saw.

🚨@MZHemingway blasts NYT and legacy media for attempting a 'Cheap Fakes’ rerun with LA riots:

“The New York Times is telling people not to believe your own eyes."

This all sounds familiar:

I doubt that they waited until it was a full blown riot to read it. Even if it had been, say 80% people who hadn't gotten out of hand, you'd still probably want to nip it in the bud before it got to 20% violent.

It seems that the progressive complete disregard for the application of history is in view here.

Seems to me that you want to invoke riot statutes--probably LONG--before you're over 50% violent actors. I'm no expert in crowd control and policing, but I'm just thinking that's too late.

*If* the troops bust the crap up, yes.

I'll be a little eeyore-ish here and note that so far the troops are only protecting federal buildings. That's probably kept the activists to areas where they know they're protected, but it's not actually addressing, much less ending the riots.

At some point, and I don't know when, folks are going to notice Trump promised to shut it down, but it's still ongoing, even if the federal buildings are undisturbed.

77 Yes the Twilight Zone of lies that somehow continues to become even more outlandish on full display here. Plus some common misunderstandings by others.

The Title 10 use of USMC and NG was/is to secure federal facilities. Pretty simple. They're not "restoring order" - even on the street in front of federal buildings. Obviously there was nothing the least bit illegal or unconstitutional or even remotely interesting about this move. So of course the airhead Dem rhetoric escalates to 11.

And the curfew applied to a square mile. A square mile. In a contiguous urban area as large as the state of CT, a square mile. So "let it burn" is particularly comical and stupid in this case. As "it" is a very small area.

But all these reactions are what one has come to expect.

84 They also accused media outlets of one-sided coverage of the protests, by focusing on heavy-handed policing while overlooking the threat that some violent activists posed to cops and the public.
---
1) someone pointed out how the media, none of them, are interviewing any of the rioters.
That's some dark Antifa message control, where only "approved" media is allowed.
And, it looks like, the price for approval is their silence.

2) I'd note that, for all the rage and hatred the rioters have been directing at the police, the videos I've seen show them generally smiling and relaxed.
Which flows from knowing that the nightmare of constant no-win situations--due to racial antagonism from the DOJ on up--is over:

199 It's not a riot in the sense that I want to see Los Angeles burn to a crisp. So, you have to take into account "desired outcome" and "just desserts."

"Riot" has such a negative connotation. I'd prefer they call what's going on in Los Angeles "performance art." Performance art is interesting only in the fact that the first few minutes in figuring out what the hell the lunatic is up to. And, "performance art" can be anything from some nitwit pissing on an electric fence to a tiny annoying yapping dog being tied to about 50 helium balloons and floating off towards Nevada.

It's not a riot if you are looking forward to enjoying the hypocritical pain of the contestants.

I once read about how a lot of mid-level Hollywood assholes got a serious wake-up call during the Rodney King riots back in '92. There was an awards show going on and the rioters broke through and got into the street outside. It was bad enough that the theater management locked them inside and wouldn't let them leave in fear of having celebrities getting their skulls caved in on live TV with the theater in the background of the shot.

Several of those Hollywood types went from anti-gun, to full-on Ted Nugent mode.

Trump pulled out of the Iranian negotiations because now he's going to tank Iran's economy (which is currently sitting at over 35% inflation with the chance to got up near 50% in the not too distant future).
