U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers have been ordered to broaden the “single largest Mass Deportation Operation” in U.S. history, targeting “crime-ridden and dangerous” areas in large Democrat-led cities, President Donald Trump declared on Sunday. Trump made the announcement in a post on Truth Social after teasing a few days ago that he would ease up on farmers, hotels, and leisure businesses who say they have been hurt by his administration’s immigration crackdown across the country. “In order to achieve this, we must expand efforts to detain and deport Illegal Aliens in America’s largest Cities, such as Los Angeles, Chicago, and New York, where Millions upon Millions of Illegal Aliens reside,” the president said. He added: “These, and other such Cities, are the core of the Democrat Power Center, where they use Illegal Aliens to expand their Voter Base, cheat in Elections, and grow the Welfare State, robbing good paying Jobs and Benefits from Hardworking American Citizens.” The order follows Trump suggesting last week there would be a policy change because farmers as well as people in the hotel and leisure industries were raising concerns about losing good and longtime workers to immigration enforcement, only for illegal criminals to apply for the jobs. His comments sparked blowback, including from Daily Wire host Matt Walsh, who said: “Employers who knowingly rely on illegal immigrant labor should be in prison. Instead we’re going to back off of immigration enforcement for their sake? Hell no. We can’t tolerate this.” In recent weeks, ICE has ramped up operations around Los Angeles, leading to protests and riots. Trump called in the National Guard and U.S. Marines, claiming Democrat leaders failed to contain the unrest. They, in turn, insist the president escalated the situation with the deployments. Trump said on Sunday that the American people want their cities, schools, and communities to be “SAFE and FREE from Illegal Alien Crime, Conflict, and Chaos,” and the present contended that’s why he directed his administration to “reverse the tide of Mass Destruction Migration.” “Our Federal Government will continue to be focused on the REMIGRATION of Aliens to the places from where they came, and preventing the admission of ANYONE who undermines the domestic tranquility of the United States,” Trump asserted.

Minnesota Assassin Vance Boelter Apprehended

We've all seen public officials making the bad mistake of telling law enforcement officers who have stopped them: "Do you know who I am?" Democrat Senator Alex Padilla of California gave a variation on that line when interviewed by Dana Bash on CNN's State of the Union on Sunday. Earlier this week, Padilla had staged a transparent publicity stunt when he interrupted a press conference being given by DHS Secretary Kristi Noem and struggled with her security detail as he was being ushered out. When Bash quoted a DHS spokesman saying that Padilla had tried to create a "viral moment," he claimed, "Nothing could be further from the truth." Riight. Padilla's defense was that someone with such a lofty "title" as his should have been recognized by Noem: "What does it say about the secretary to not know who the senator from California is, the ranking member of the Judiciary Subcommittee on Immigration? How does the cabinet secretary not know the senator from California when she steps foot into Los Angeles?" Right! In L.A., you might not recognize a nobody like Clint Eastwood, but you couldn't fail to spot some guy appointed to fill Kamala's spot when she became VP. He won the seat in 2022, but since it was not a competitive race (he won with 61 percent), it didn't draw national publicity. Padilla condemned the Trump administration for subjecting people who were "law-abiding"--other than their illegal entry into the US thingy--to "terror." Does Padilla want the 10-20 million illegal aliens in the US to be allowed to remain--and before long, vote? Padilla blasted Noem for not knowing how to "de-escalate" a situation. Pro De-escalation Tip For Padilla When being detained by law enforcement, don't continue to struggle. Comply, submit, and subsequently have your say. But Publicity Stunt Padilla wasn't about to do that, knowing the cameras were rolling, producing some good footage for his base. Note: Padilla also claimed that Noem and her security detail should have noticed that while in the federal building, he had been "escorted by an FBI agent and a National Guard member." So impressive that you were "escorted," Senator! Then again, how were Noem and her security detail to know that rather than being a lofty member of the Senate, you weren't being escorted because you were a defendant or a suspect?  Here's the transcript. CNN State of the Union 6/15/25 9:28 am EDT DANA BASH: As Democrats take to the streets in protest, party leaders are urging them to be peaceful. That includes my next guest, who was handcuffed by law enforcement this week after interrupting a press conference by Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem. Here with me now is Senator Alex Padilla of California.  . . .  ALEX PADILLA: And when I heard the secretary, not for the first time in that press conference, talk about the needing to liberate the people of Los Angeles from their duly elected mayor and governor, it was at that moment that I chose to try to ask a question.  You know, if all the Trump administration was doing was truly focusing on dangerous, violent criminals, as they suggest, there would be no debate. There would be no disagreement. But we've seen story after story after story of hardworking women and men, maybe undocumented, but otherwise law-abiding, good people being subject to the terror that this immigration enforcement operations is subjecting the people to. I needed to speak up. I needed to try to get the information from the secretary.  . . .  BASH: I'm sure you've seen the DHS spokeswoman, Tricia McLaughlin, posted that you, quote, tried to manufacture a viral moment.  PADILLA: Nothing could be further from the truth.  . . .  BASH: Our CNN security correspondent, Josh Campbell, who was an FBI agent, he said just from a law enforcement perspective, Secretary Noem's security acted appropriately at the beginning, not when you were in the hallway being handcuffed, but at the beginning, trying to keep you away or get you out of the room because you interrupted her press conference. What do you think of that?  PADILLA: If that's how they treat a senator trying to ask a question, here's one of my big takeaways. Then imagine not what they can do, what they are doing to so many people without titles. BASH: But they might not have known. I know you said pretty early, I'm a senator, but -- PADILLA: I was escorted into that room by a National Guardsman and an FBI agent. Look, the whole Los Angeles press corps, this is Los Angeles, this is my hometown. They know who I was.  And what does it say about the secretary to not know who the senator from California is, the ranking member of the Judiciary Subcommittee on Immigration?  BASH: You were escorted into the room by law enforcement? PADILLA: Absolutely. I was escorted during my entire time in that building. From showing up in the building, going through security screening, escorted by an FBI agent, a National Guards member, to the conference room where I was awaiting a briefing. They're the ones I requested. Well, if we're waiting, can we go listen in at the press conference? They escorted me over to the press conference. They opened the door for me, and they stood next to me while I was listening for the entire time. And then, of course, once I was forcibly removed and handcuffed.  BASH: Several of your fellow Democrats say that Secretary Noem should resign. Is that where you are?  PADILLA: That's maybe not my focus right now, but I do think there's some serious questions. How does the cabinet secretary not know the senator from California when she steps foot into Los Angeles? She came through the Senate for confirmation at one point.  And certainly, how does the Secretary of Homeland Security not know how to de-escalate a situation?
