I want to add my $.02 to the excellent piece Ed wrote this morning about the farm raid in California that so exorcised the Democrats.
You know, the one where a violent "protester" shot at law enforcement, risking everybody around him in the process.
Democrats were livid at...ICE...apparently for provoking a well-justified armed response from a good citizen who rightly wanted to ensure that the pot farm he was protecting could continue to employ children to harvest the crop.
Unaccompanied migrant children are doing what amounts to slave labor, and the Democrats are incensed that their pot supply might become more expensive or even be reduced a bit by the federal government rescuing children from abuse. They need a steady supply of illegal aliens to keep their precious industry healthy and productive.
NEW MEDIA SPIN JUST DROPPED
“ICE forcefully raided a California farm and arrested farmers.”
REALITY: It was a WEED farm exploiting child labor, and ICE agents had rocks thrown and a gun fired at them
You don’t hate the media enough.

Democrats seem obsessed with ensuring that industries that rely on cheap and slave labor thrive. Child slaves in the Congo are reportedly mining with their bare hands the cobalt used in EV batteries, and apparently, pot farms thrive when they use underage, often unaccompanied minors in their fields.
Yes, potheads will attack federal law enforcement to protect their right to cheap cannabis farmed by children
The moral bankruptcy of drug legalizers has never been clearer

And Gavin Newsom is outraged that neither industry is getting the federal support they need--he much preferred the Biden model of importing labor, including hundreds of thousands of unaccompanied minors the government conveniently "loses," so they can do the work here that "Americans won't do."
Alex is cool with kids picking crops, what a hack.

Without the slaves, who will pick the pot? We might have to actually pay people!
The scene left Gavin Newsom outraged. He wasn't outraged by the shooter, nor the mob that showed up to obstruct federal agents enforcing immigration law. Newsom saved his ire for Trump and his adviser Stephen Miller for taking someone's "mother" from the "fields":
"Kids running from tear gas, crying on the phone because their mother was just taken from the fields," the governor wrote in a post accompanied by a video showing people running to avoid tear gas deployed by authorities. "Trump calls me 'Newscum' — but he’s the real scum." ...
"Instead of supporting the businesses and workers that drive our economy and way of life, Stephen Miller’s tactics evoke chaos, fear and terror within our communities at every turn," he wrote. "At Miller’s direction, Trump’s agents continue to detain U.S. citizens and racially profile Americans, ripping families apart and disappearing parents and workers into cruel federal detention centers to meet their self-imposed arrest quotas."
Ahem. In the first place, despite some uninformed commentary on social media, these were not Strawberry Fields Forever. This was a cannabis farm, which in itself is still technically illegal under federal law. Furthermore, the state of California routinely separates mothers from children when mothers commit crimes, and sometimes violently and in front of those children. It's called getting arrested, which happens when mommies and daddies violate the law. That also "rips families apart" and puts parents into "detention centers." How is that any different, except that Newsom doesn't like the federal laws in question?
Speaking of children, though ...
Customs and Border Protection Commissioner Rodney Scott responded to Newsom's post.
"Here’s some breaking news: 10 juveniles were found at this marijuana facility - all illegal aliens, 8 of them unaccompanied. It’s now under investigation for child labor violations," Scott wrote.
Newsom was fine with the shooting, apparently. It was entirely justified since ICE was trying to enforce a law he happens to find inconvenient. California needs those children to pick the crops, you know. And what about the gardeners, and the people who we need to wipe our a$$es?
BREAKING 🚨 Trump said “300,000 children went MISSING under Joe Biden” and They have already saved 10,000 of them
“We're getting them back by the THOUSANDS”
AMEN 🙏

As I have written several times this week, the Democrats are calling for blood. Literally, as Axios reported--they are calling for gunfire and what amounts to revolution--and politicians like Newsom are egging them on. Any bad thing that happens is Trump's fault, you see.
🚨 BREAKING: The weed farm that was raided by ICE agents yesterday is a donor for Gavin Newsom.
It’s now officially under investigation for child labor violations.

Hakeem Jeffries smirked when asked about fellow Democrats declaring open season on Republicans and Trump--after all, their anger is totally justified because Trump is Orange.
NEW: The President of Glasshouse Farms, which had two cannabis farms raided by ICE & Border Patrol in Camarillo yesterday, has donated thousands of dollars to Democrats in California, including $10,000 to Gov. Gavin Newsom in 2018.

Thank you very much and God bless you.
Camarillo is pretty fancy real estate for a farm of any kind.
My bet is they can afford to pay Americans. The advantage of illegals is docility out of fear.
New orders from the CIC:
Do whatever is necessary.
The Invaders are about to learn that there has been a regime change.
aka slave labor
Befitting of the Democrap plantations.
Didn’t catch his name but a California State Assemblyman with a really bad complexion gave a preposterous explanation on NewsNation Friday morning. Said the pretty day on the farm was going along nicely but the militarized and terrorizing ICE invasion created dangerous chaos. Said the ICE agents are the terrorists people worried about.
The host let him ramble about 3 more minutes then interrupted and couldn’t take it any longer, having to mention that there were children illegally laboring in a dangerous place among people in the country illegally.
RE: the one where a violent “protester” shot at law enforcement, risking everybody around him in the process.
Yes, apparently the Left believes rounds from a weapon fired at the agents and bystanders is the sincerest form of “protest.”
Some federal judges will rule “he has a right to protest and express his grievances.” /S
Trump grants ICE ability to arrest ‘SLIMEBALL’ protesters who attack agents after chaotic California pot farm raid
Non-lethal weapons against hardworking gerbilists? Very Bad!
Lethal weapons against Nazi Trump stormtroopers? That’s fine!
Judge Fernando Wakanda-Gonzales “Spearchucker” Jones
there is no " right wing" in politics, there's either insane, violent, serious mental instability and ,bats#it crazy or the rest of the US.
Exactly. There’s two types of Americans: demonrat traitors and then there’s normal patriots.
That proves demonrats are nothing but pure unadulterated evil abominations.
United Farm Workers Union is no where to be found. the operation was not paying their workers which usually brings out the Caesar Chavez’s etc.
It would not be surprising to learn these children were also providing “relief services” for some of the higher-ups on this pot farm.
So the operation is ILLEGAL? Hmmm, can we arrest the management of Glasshouse Farms? I guess NewScum is trying to protect his donor. Arrest NewScum!!
Why isn’t it unconstitutional for the dickheads in the weaponized “judiciary” to order the American taxpayers to subsidize the slave and child labor “farm” industry that provides recreational drugs for sale that are illegal in a lot of states.
“about the farm raid in California that so exorcised the Democrats.”
I wish we could ‘exorcise’ the dem-o-rats. Using spelchuk to proofread isn’t a good idea.
When are Newscum and B-Ass going to be charged with allowing slave labor “farms” to operate in their state and city and contributing to the delinquency of “unaccombanied” minors (Human Trafficking)?
Democrats…..still are the party of slavery and they are still supporting it.
ICE was right, child slave labor to pick pot.
Go ahead Democrats, pick this hill to die on too.
