ICE agents blasted for arresting migrants at LA car wash on July 4
Daily Mail UK ^ | July 6, 2025 | Stephen M. Lepore

Liberal Los Angeles residents were outraged as ICE agents with bulletproof vests spent the Fourth of July holiday continuing to carry out Donald Trump's mass deportation promise.

One video showed a raid at a West Hollywood car wash, showing a man who alleged to have been in the country for 30 years.

His son, who had been alerted to the raid, was left asking: 'Why? My dad is not a criminal. He was working at a car wash on 4th of July.'

'My dad came to work today on the Fourth of July. He loves his country. We've been here as long as I've been around,' the son, who wouldn't identify himself, added.

The owner of the Santa Palm Car Wash was reportedly in the bathroom when the raid happened and enraged that he had not been informed.

They told NBC Los Angeles that they arrested several people who have worked at the car wash for decades in the span of ten minutes at around 11am.

Another employee was seen being tackled in a nearby alley.

The city of West Hollywood issued a statement criticizing federal officials for the holiday raid.

Guess I never thought of them arresting illegals who had been here that long. They should have been well settled by then.

Ah, the Daily Mail.

If the UK’s Deep State is excreting a brick, I’m a happy camper.

Settled is not assimilated.

In any case, if assimilation was the goal, why not make it legal, hmmmm?

If they haven’t, I don’t give a rat’s patootie how long theve been here, out they go.

Note to folks in the UK: All this can be yours, too, if you deal with your Deep State.

The other day I was washing my wife’s car and listening to my favorite music, 70’s Soul and “Car Wash” came on. Yes, I sung along while washing the car.

This is only bad PR if you are on the left or a squishy, moderate clutcher of pearls.

“First, many in my crowd worked at the car wash when we were young and we had those jobs taken by the illegals, second, stories like this can seem like bad press, but all these scare stories are the ones encouraging the illegals to self deport to avoid the nasty surprise of suddenly being taken away for good, and also because it is better to sell their cars and material goods and say goodbye to social relationships, and leave on their own terms rather than just lose them when they are suddenly removed from society.”

Excellent comment.
