LA is in complete chaos right now! Protests erupted after ICE raids in several locations on Friday and Saturday. People are angry and some are going crazy — setting cars on fire and throwing fireworks at police. In Compton, a car was set on fire like a scene from a movie. Downtown LA? Fireworks are going off, police are firing rubber bullets. Illegal!
The LAPD was saying, “Everybody go home!” They called it an “unlawful assembly” and arrested some people who wouldn’t leave. The situation got so weird that Trump sent in 2,000 National Guard troops to calm it down. On social media, he’s all, “I’m stopping the chaos!” The White House has also roasted California leaders, calling them “useless” for not handling it.
Governor Newsom is furious. He’s like, “The Feds are just bending over backwards to look tough.” They sent in extra highway patrol to keep the roads safe, but then it turns out Trump has called in the state’s National Guard. Newsom is screaming, “This is stupid, it’s going to make things worse!” Mayor Bass is also stressed. “LA is already in flames, now this?” she says.
The big guys are talking shit. FBI boss Cash Patel says anyone who kills a cop is toast. If it keeps up, Defense Department guy Pete Hegseth is ready to call in the Marines from Camp Pendleton. Newsom is pleading with people, “Deter, but don’t be violent, please!”
It’s all drama in LA. Everyone is watching to see what’s going to happen. The troops are here, the protests are escalating, and it’s all on Twitter!
