In Los Angeles, ICE is conducting massive raids on illegal immigrant nexus nodes, the latest of which is MacArthur Park in Los Angeles.
Fox News reporter Bill Melugin says the raids are big indeed:
BREAKING: We are with hundreds of federal agents and military as a massive federal immigration enforcement operation is underway in the MacArthur Park area of the sanctuary city of Los Angeles, an area with heavy MS-13 influence. Mayor Bass has demanded raids stop, Feds respond… pic.twitter.com/g4osPOL6mr

Far-left Mayor Karen Bass is outraged:
This is footage from today in MacArthur Park.
Minutes before, there were more than 20 kids playing — then, the MILITARY comes through.
The SECOND I heard about this, I went to the park to speak to the person in charge to tell them it needed to end NOW.
Absolutely outrageous. pic.twitter.com/sxGzjGlYlr — Mayor Karen Bass (@MayorOfLA) July 7, 2025
I suppose I should comment on the strange specter of a mayor of a large city upset to see criminals cleared out of an area famous for its criminals, a no-go zone of MS-13 and Mexican cartel criminals, pretty much occupying the front yard of the Mexican consulate in Los Angeles.
I've been to these places, I know what the parking is like, I know what the traffic is like, and like most Angelenos, know very well that the place is a gang hellhole of shootings, robbings and vandalism.
From the LA Times in March:
"The vendors [at MacArthur Park] are a staple among immigrant communities, selling goods in and around..."

Time clock-you know. When you’re not getting paid you go home.
Maybe the word about Alligator Alcatraz is getting around.
I’m equally surprised there were no celebratory riots in LA after Mexico’s victory over the U.S. in the Gold Cup soccer championship.
Someone left a cake out in the rain....
Did Bass leave, too?
All the illegal murderers and rapists and robbers are hiding out so that makes the streets safer.
The Bass / Newscum / Pelosi stronghold is nothing less than a major beachead and staging area for the invasion of the US.
The DS is not about to give up what they’ve begun.
Bass ...
Angelinos Will get Their Park Back.
Bad players will be Deported.
The sound of leftists reloading is quieter than the shooting coming soon.
Even with suppressers.
Pretty sure MacArthur Park never looked better than when Donna Summer sang it.
One of the many wonderful results of this FEDERAL action is when the wackos (paid or not) attack a FEDERAL officer. Federal crimes are much more serious, starting with the Federal Prison System.
Looking a little further ahead, the average America has no idea how much their everyday standard of living will improve if we really can get millions of illegals deported and other third world foreigners sent home. Just imagine:
- Affordable housing
- Being able to get seen in the emergency room in reasonable times
- Less traffic
- Fewer DUI and other traffic fatalities
- Lowered insurance rates
- Less crime
- Usable open public spaces
Etc. It can become a reality if people stick with it.
Selling stolen goods and drugs, and that's well known around these parts... They left that part out.
It’s the upswing in mindfulness.
And the Ignatian discernment process for coming out of desolation and into consolation.
Californians are into that stuff.
did karen stomp her feet?
And……….I don’t think that I can take it.
I watch pod casts from France where People from Great Britian who moved there a generation or more are being told since GB is no longer part of the EU, the Brits living in France have to apply for limited legal status. There are several options with the most difficult one is being a French citizen. They are being told they have to be tested in their ability to speak and write in French. The lower resident options have to pass a high school level of French and the citizen applicants have to pass university level French. They will also have their housing inspected to see if it meets the standard for the number of people residing there. The Liberal would have a heart attack if President Trump wrote an Executive Orden instituting the same policies here.
Continued, aggressive enforcement will drive many out.
Desperation will set in for those that remain within a month.
It’s going to be interesting.
Oh, and LA county and surrounding areas have at least 2 million, maybe more, illegal aliens. Not 1 million.
And her hands were on her hips.
