The helicopter footage is MUCH clearer than the one from a bystander.
Glass House Farms is the state-licensed cannabis farm that was raided yesterday for exploiting children.

Here's some information on their many legal issues:
🚨 Glass House Brands: Legal + Labor Trouble Rundown 🧵
Labor Class-Action (2024–Ongoing)
Filed by a former employee in LA County—alleges unpaid overtime, wage theft, and forcing workers to prep (like donning lab coats) off-the-clock. Seeks damages under California labor law + PAGA. Catalyst Cannabis Lawsuit (2023–2024) Catalyst accused Glass House of being a “massive black market operator.” Glass House denied all wrongdoing and fought back in court.Defamation Suit Drama
Glass House fired back with a defamation case against Catalyst—then dropped it, citing financial issues on Catalyst’s side and shady discovery practices. Case Dismissals (2024) Catalyst’s unfair competition case? Dismissed. Duplicate claims? Also dismissed. Glass House was even awarded legal costs.📌 TL;DR: Glass House has survived multiple legal storms—labor lawsuits still pending, but court victories over Catalyst are in the bag. No reported fines.

Leftists will complain that the family values of the illegals was just as strong as the Maryland dad who has been pictured with a straw hat, leaning against a wood fence in Tennessee.
The one with two protection orders filed with police and the court by his wife who now thinks he is a different man than before.
Oliver Twist: More, please.
Today: Mas, por favor. 🥣
By the grace of God this armed man did not hit anyone and from the earlier case the officer who was shot in his neck is still alive.
These “protesters” are not Henry David Thoreau refusing to pay the war tax.
Right. Among the tens of thousands of missing children from border crossings are the sad ones questioned and looking fearfully up at the illegal man glaring at them and answering that yes, he is my uncle. Children were sold as props to accompany illegals.
Thanks for that post of the details.
Probably doesn’t mean anything but....
Name Kazan.
“The surname Kazan is most strongly associated with Turkish and East Slavic (particularly Ukrainian and Belorussian) origins. It can also be found in Jewish (Eastern Ashkenazic) and Greek communities.” Mean “big soup kettle” or “cauldron”.
Yup. From what I’ve read so far, those two sound like grade A scumbags.
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.

Gavin Newson should be charged with slavery.
consider how convenient it was that both a news crew and a shooter were there both at the same time and place. Just a thought. When I consider all the hours my father had me working in our “Victory Garden” that we kept for 9 years after WW2 ended, I will want to know more about just how old these young workers were, how many hours a day and days a week they worked, and what kind of food and medical care was available for them. I have traveled and or lived in Mexico, Honduras, El Salvador, and Nicaragua as a young adult and seen the conditions of some who lived there. On my way to college classes in Mexico, I daily rode past a walled area where I woman with 3 children lived under a cloth draped across the corner of the wall. They were there every day for the entire summer I traveled that street. I wonder what became of those children.
As a child I was angry that I could not go play when the neighbor children looked for me. As an adult I realize that trying to care for a family of 5 on $3,000 a year we were lucky to have a large yard and a wide variety of vegetables and fruit to eat and preserve for winter. And I also spent many hours helping my mother can and preserve food we had grown or picked as well as eating it fresh during the growing season. Perhaps that is part of why I am a healthy 86 year old taking only 2 minor medication. If those young workers were sad, consider this may have been an improvement from where they originated. My question is what have any leaders in this country, or where they originally came from done to improve their lives before they left home.?
I was not aware we had a problem of legal or illegal children and young teens voting legally or illegally in this country. Where has this been happening??
I’m sure the people arranging for the pick up and return of these kids, and the people returning them to home are giving a lot of thought to their future welfare.
I was referring to the dozens of adult illegal aliens working there.
Sorry - I thought that was obvious.
Regarding adult illegal aliens voting, that is why it is so important for citizen volunteers from both political parties to be poll workers at election time. If I were worried about such activity in my voting area I would certainly volunteer to do a day or two of election work at the ballot boxes and with recounting and verification of provisional ballots.
“I’m sure the people arranging for the pick up and return of these kids, and the people returning them to home are giving a lot of thought to their future welfare.”
You’re assuming the kids have a home. I wouldn’t be surprised if, since the day they were trafficked into the country, they’ve been warehoused with 50 other kids to be doled out to various sweat shops, fields, etc., every morning.
They’re referred to as “unaccompanied”. I don’t know if that means unaccompanied by a parent in the field, or unaccompanied by a parent crossing the border. Whatever they are or aren’t, it seems that they are considered nothing more valuable than equipment.
BREAKING: Two senior CBP & ICE officials tell me federal agents arrested a total of 319 illegal aliens at the two cannabis farms in CA on Thursday, making it the largest worksite raid of the current Trump administration.
It’s also believed to be the second largest single state worksite raid in ICE history, behind the 2019 ICE raids at chicken processing plants in Mississippi during President Trump’s first term, which netted nearly 700 arrests of illegal aliens.
I’m told the investigation into the employer at the Glass House Farms cannabis farms is ongoing, as is the investigation into possible child labor law violations after 9 unaccompanied migrant juveniles were found there by agents. I’m told the juveniles are all from Mexico & Honduras.
Criminal histories of those arrested are still being analyzed - as Feds have a massive amount of people and data they're going through at the moment.
More to come as we learn it.— Bill Melugin (@BillMelugin_) July 12, 2025
