Karen Bass under fire as leak shows she ordered LAPD stand down, stalling federal help amid violent LA riots
Economic Times ^ | 09 June, 2025

Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass is facing mounting backlash after a leaked report revealed she had ordered the LAPD to stand down during violent riots, leaving federal officers without critical backup as the situation spiraled out of control..

when DHS and FBI requested assistance because they were overwhelmed by rioters, LAPD sat idle waiting for direction. Instead of allowing the Incident Commander to act, Mayor Karen Bass bypassed established protocol

...

By personally directing operations, Bass functioned as a de facto Incident Commander, in direct conflict with the City’s Emergency Operations Plan and National Incident Management System (NIMS) protocols. This breach of the chain of command prevented the Incident Commander from making crucial operational decisions, put DHS officers, FBI agents, and community members at risk, and delayed immediate LAPD support.”

...

This unprecedented political interference demands a federal investigation into potential endangerment of federal personnel and obstruction of emergency response.”

The plan was to have Trump overreact.

She is a bona fide Marxist. I think it’s natural to assume it was done with malicious intent.

We are not surprised.

The media has much fake surprise, as their news is wont to do.

Yes, plan was to create chaos.

Dem spin machine fake media tells the sheeple it’s Trump’s fault and goal is to create a sense of unease and lack of normalcy.

The sheeple then will want to ‘go back to the way things were before Trump’ - with the globalists in control and the paid-for riots stopped.

Notice Obama - who deported more illegals than any president in history - wasn’t met with planned riots or protests.

This is likely USAID / CCP / our homegrown communists all working together - will help of the cheap labor express RINOs - to stall Trump’s agenda.

Arrest Traitorbass for giving aid and comfort to the domestic and foreign enemies of hte United States. Following her trial, conviction, and sentencing, she’s one mayor who deserves to be swinging, as she slowly rots off the noose.

I am still wondering how she came out of the LA fires unscathed.
Maybe LA deserves Karen Bass.

Karen Bass is a virulent Leftist: she came up through the ranks of the Communist Party and went to Cuba multiple times to take part in the Venceremos Brigade - training for revolution, including combat training. How she and her ilk avoided prison for treason is a weakness of our judicial system.

You did not get recruited for that training at random - you had to be a proven member of the Party.

LA likely didn’t vote for this.

Per the above...

“...The contest was a virtual dead heat on Election Night. Caruso pulled slightly ahead last Thursday, but since then Bass gained a steady lead...”

Sound familiar...?

Back in my FEMA-centric ES days, even a lowly drone like myself was up to speed with emergency incident chains of command, spans of control, etc. The woman is Bass Ackwards.

A new campaign slogan, perhaps? ‘Karen Bass, saving your fire fighting equipment for when you really need it.’
