Bass: I Didn’t Know What Feds Were Doing in Park, But I Wanted Them to Leave Because They Could ‘Create a Crowd’
Breitbart ^ | 07/08/2025 | Ian Hanchett

During an interview with FOXLA on Monday, Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass said that she didn’t know what the mission of federal agents in MacArthur Park was but wanted to get them to leave and “having it look like there are troops on the ground, that could create a crowd, and then we could have a lot of problems. So, instead of solving problems, they’re creating problems.”

Bass began by saying, “I was horrified. What went through my mind was those occasions when I would travel overseas and see a city or a country under siege by their military in preparation for a coup. That’s the imagery that I had in my mind.”

She added, “I went there, because I wanted to know who was in charge so that I could find out what was the mission and how to get them to leave, because chaos was beginning. And, of course, when something that egregious as having it look like there are troops on the ground, that could create a crowd, and then we could have a lot of problems. So, instead of solving problems, they’re creating problems. And I think that’s really egregious.”

Later, after Bass stated that children at a summer camp in the park couldn’t do outdoor activities as a result of the federal agents, host Elex Michaelson said, “[T]hey’ve said that MacArthur Park is run by MS-13, that there are gangs, that there [are] all sorts of problems, drug use there.”

Bass responded, “And you know what? We have a police department.”

Michaelson then cut in to ask, “Do you think they’re doing a good job there, though?”

She should know what a coup looks like. She trained in Cuba.

Interesting take on the people she is talking about.

“We have a police department.”

Unsaid: “Which we have shrunk and defunded, who are afraid to do their jobs because they fear going to prison like Derek Chauvin.”

Well, if your city has a policy not to communicate with ICE, you are going to be surprised.

Perhaps LA should change their policy.

They need to get rid of Bass and replace her with Salmon.

Or with a Soprano. (At least he could run things.)

I watched several different sources covering the extended activities in Mc Arther Park.

There were lots of federal vehicles including perhaps 8 vans, an armored car and a troop of LA mounted police.

There was endless video both on the ground and from news helicopters. There was extensive video of streets being block and traffic rerouted. There was extensive video of the Mayor being surrounded by the press.

There was no video of either arrests or of potential arrests. From what I saw the effort did not produce the desired arrest results. The reason for all the effort remains secret

There has to be massive election fraud at all levels in our country...No other way would we have so many black, women, liberals, and illiterate political mayors, judges, sheriffs, police chiefs, congressmen, etc...

Actually, LA cops were present. There was even a mounted police effort with 10 or 12 horse mounted police.

What actually happened was........ nothing happened

With the illegal aliens gone, the old men can now feel safe while playing checkers by the trees.

She went to Cuba 14 times. Seems to know a lot about “coups”, probably she was promoting them.

Vicky the Vampire Nuland and Karen the Bass-tard both had cookies... only in LA they used rock cookies. Too bad the actual government is stopping an actual color revolution.

Yes, that is correct. Bass is part of the Kiev Color Revolution committee from the Obama Administration.

The same government officials who acted il-legal-ly in Ukriane, Romania, Georgia, Syria and over two dozen other countries have descended upon LA, NYC, Chicago and numerous other cities throughout the USA.

You can call it DNC power, Obama powered, or Black power....

Bass stated that children at a summer camp in the park couldn’t do outdoor activities

This is a typical day in MacArthur Park. These don't look like children doing outdoor activities.
