Breitbart ^ | 06/15/2025 | Pam Key

Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass (D) said Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union” that President Donald Trump does not understand there were entire sectors of the U.S. economy “cannot function without immigrant labor.”

Host Dana Bash said, “Officials say more than 20,000 demonstrators took to the streets in L.A. yesterday as part of the nationwide No Kings protests, which were largely peaceful. There was a pocket of unrest outside the federal building. How violent did things ge in reality last night in your town?”

Then these immigrants should lawfully apply for a work visa under the sponsorship of their employer.

It can Mayor Bass. Once you force the 4-5 million able bodied people whod rather sit home collecting benefits than taking a job they think is below them.

Isn’t it ironic how democrats deny their slavery roots and then generations later embrace the virtual enslavement of yet another minority people, qualifying it - once again - as an economic necessity.

There are two America’s:

The Democrat America which sponsored the “No Kings” protests.

The Trump America, where we celebrated the Army’s 250th birthday.

That’s all this is about.

Bass does not understand the difference between legal and illegal.

No, they are here illegally and need to go home.

Our economy and culture need a massive readjustment.

Oh, I’m sure Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass and CNN Hostess Dana Bash are experts on economics and its laws and elements.

Right.

Bass does not understand the difference between legal and illegal.

And that means he does not know the difference between right and wrong.

And THAT means he's legally insane.

The Irony is that the Army’s 250th is also about “no kings”, in that G. Washington in 1775 was commissioned to lead the new US Army against King George - GWash was all in for “no kings”.

It’s no one’s fault because it is not true.

As I said on another thread, when I was a kid, the town I grew up in had no Mexican (or any other, to my knowledge) illegals, nor any guest workers. Somehow, all of the jobs demanding unskilled or semi-skilled manual labor all got done - from picking crops to landscaping to tarring.

So the notion that our economy cannot function without mass immigration is just a myth peddled by those with outside agendas - either Democrats with their cult of "diversity" or chamber of commerce Republicans who refuse to pay American wages to American workers.
