LOS ANGELES IN FLAMES: PROGRESSIVE COMMUNIST DEMOCRAT LEADERSHIP FAILS AGAIN AS RIOTS ERUPT
Once again, progressive communist democrat-run Los Angeles has descended into pre-planned chaos.
Urged on by professional progressive communist democrat agitators and activists, violent riots broke out last night, triggered by professional communist agitators and fueled in part by illegal aliens emboldened by the city’s lax immigration enforcement and sanctuary city policies.
The result: widespread looting, destruction, and fear across the city.
Mayor Karen Bass, a Castro-loving communist sympathizer who has long championed soft-on-crime policies and open-door immigration, scrambled to respond by issuing a late-night citywide curfew.
As with everything involving the radical far left’s shock troops, it’s too little, too late.
What we are seeing is not only the consequence of years of failed progressive communist democrat policies, but a pre-planned rebellion against the Trump Administration’s attempt to reverse the disastrous effects of open borders and the failure of local and state officials to enforce existing laws.
The Los Angeles Police Department made dozens of arrests amid the chaos, confirming that many of the instigators had no legal right to be in the country. Yet city officials have largely sidestepped this point, focusing instead on generic calls for “unity” and “calm.”
The breakdown of law and order in America’s second-largest city raises urgent questions:
- How much longer will Angelenos and Californians ignore the consequences of progressive communist democrat policies that are decimating our public safety, healthcare, education, housing, employment, and infrastructure?
- How many more Angelenos have to suffer before real leadership steps in?
- Why are more employers not being criminally charged for hiring illegal aliens?
As the city wakes up to another day of destruction, one thing is clear—Los Angeles isn’t just experiencing a crisis. It’s paying the price for progressive communist democrat negligence.

LOS ANGELES – Mayor Karen Bass has issued a curfew for Downtown Los Angeles. The curfew will be in place starting tonight from 8:00 PM to 6:00 AM. Mayor Bass was joined by elected, law enforcement and business leaders this afternoon to make the announcement. “I am exercising my mayoral powers to implement a curfew within Downtown Los Angeles to curb bad actors who do not support the immigrant community. [OCS: Notice she doesn't say. "who break the law?" And, she refuses to say illegal aliens, even when the majority of legal immigrants do not support illegal aliens.] 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,” said Mayor Bass. “The raids must end. I thank the Governor for his partnership and especially thank our state and local officers and deputies who are working tirelessly to keep Los Angeles safe.” [OCS: These are not raids, they are lawful federal immigration enforcement actions, mostly against criminal illegal aliens who have already experienced "due process."] “This curfew is a necessary measure to protect lives and safeguard property following several consecutive days of growing unrest throughout our city,” said LAPD Chief of Police, Jim McDonnell. “I want to be absolutely clear: if you are within the designated curfew zone between the hours of 8:00 PM and 6:00 AM and are not exempt under the order, you are subject to arrest.” [OCS: Unrest? How about rioting and looting?] In addition to the curfew, Mayor Bass noted that hundreds of officers from police and sheriffs departments from across the region and state are working alongside LAPD through a unified command structure.

The curfew will not protect the city, which covers about 469 square miles-- it only applies to a one-square-mile area, totaling 502 square blocks. And, it is unclear how long the curfew will remain in place.
Smoke and Mirrors!
Bottom Line
What part of a peaceful protest demands looting high-end sneaker stores, restaurants, and liquor stores?
Why are the police afraid to use the necessary force to break up crowds? Why so few arrests, with egregious actions recorded, with the police observing?
The tell-tale sign: the elected officials claim it is all about Donald Trump, rarely the lawless illegal aliens and opportunistic criminals.
We are so screwed.
