LA mayor says Trump’s crackdown on DC crime is “going after black and brown youth” [Race Card denied...]

Does someone need to explain per capita to the mayor of Los Angeles?

LA Mayor Karen Bass on Trump's DC crime crackdown: "It's essentially going after young black and brown youth." pic.twitter.com/0PeuSWnlOc— TheBlaze (@theblaze) August 18, 2025

Mayor Bass took a familiar tack in this interview by insinuating that a Republican opponent is racist.

Unfortunately for her, National Violent Death Reporting System (NVDRS) statistics are now available at the click of a button.

More violent crime statistics for D.C. from the FBI (this shows the last 5 years of data):

Marx-adjacent ideology teaches all disparity is wrong, but achieving "equity" also means ignoring disparities that would inconvenience "marginalized" groups. In this case, that means ignoring which demographics commit the most crime in D.C., or if it can't be ignored, spinning the crime statistics as proof of "systemic racism" by police.

Mayor Karen Bass is no stranger to such ideology. She played a leadership role in the 1970s in the Marxist revolutionary group Venceremos Brigade, which helped connect young Americans to the communist regime of Cuba. These connections led to the formation of terror groups like Weather Underground, which committed bombings across the United States, including at the U.S. Capitol and Pentagon, with the expressed goal of overthrowing the government.

Instead of focusing on the issue of solving crime, then, Mayor Bass used the common Marxist tactic of making the issue about skin color.

In doing so, however, her attempt to smear Trump ironically said the quiet part out loud. In other words, she accidentally told the truth.

Don’t worry Bass, there’s lots of white criminals in DC that need their comeuppance just as much as the black and brown criminals.

Mission accomplished means it all gets drained..

Hey Karen--are you claiming that only black and brown youth are responsible for crime?

Racist much?

democrats aren’t doing blacks any favor by giving them a free pass to commit crime. But it gets them votes, so they keep doing it.

There is no chance that a democrat administration will hold blacks to the same standard as the rest of the country. And so crime will continue.

Facts are facts and the fact is that black and brown youths commit most of the crimes in DC. It follows that law enforcement should go after black and brown youths. Facts don't care how you feel about them.

Bass is a Marxist. That’s not a guess and it’s not hyperbole.

Venceremos Brigade
Founded in 1969, the Venceremos Brigade organized trips to Cuba every year for half a century. They attracted the most radicalized and delusional segments of the American left, including overtly Maoist and pro-Soviet Communist groups.

M-19 bombed an FBI office in the Israel aircraft industries building, the South African consulate in New York, DC, Fort McNair, and Navy Yard, which they bombed twice. But that wasn’t enough for them.

On the night of November 7, 1983, the M-19 called the US Capitol switchboard and warned them to evacuate the building. Minutes later, the M-19 bombed the North wing of the US Capitol.

November 7, 2023, marks 40 years since the M-19 bombing of the US Capitol. Members of the M-19, like Susan Rosenberg, traveled to Cuba with and were radicalized by the Venceremos Brigade, the South Los Angeles fence. The Venceremos Brigade was led by Karen Bass, who is now the mayor of Los Angeles.

Well, I don’t think it was mobs of blue eyed blond Swedes that illegally flooded our borders to the south. Idiot racist mayor.

They want to force "looks like us" when it comes to jobs regardless of skill, but they don't want to admit "looks like us" when it come to crime?

Democrats appear to want innocent “black and brown” people dead through crime.

They foster and subsidize the crime, then unleash the resulting products on society.

Democrats and liberal Republicans are grotesque example of human beings.
