Mayor Karen Bass threw a fit on Monday when federal agents did a big enforcement operation in the MacArthur Park area of Los Angeles. Members of the military were there to protect the agents since agents have faced a lot of attacks and threats. Bass arrived on the scene of the operation and demanded that the agents leave. Why is she showing up when they’re trying to conduct an operation and making a circus out of it?
The agents didn’t leave. Border Patrol Chief Gregory Bovino spoke with Bass on the phone, then told Fox’s Bill Melugin that he didn’t work for Bass. “Better get used to us now, because this is going to be normal very soon,” he said. “We will go anywhere, anytime we want in Los Angeles.”
A reporter asked her if it felt like she wasn’t in control of things.
Karen Bass defiantly responds to today’s ICE operation in LA:
“Last I checked, I was elected to be mayor of the city. That did not include a federal takeover….So either you believe in democracy or you don’t.”

She said that they didn’t feel helpless, that wasn’t in their “DNA.”
“We’re going to continue fighting,” she said. Someone chimed in, calling it the “summer of resistance.”
Then she claimed that she would never “get used” to it in response to Bovino’s comment.
“Last I checked, I was elected to be mayor of the city. That did not include a federal takeover. So either you believe in democracy, or you don’t.”
That’s a delusional statement. But that is a typical Democrat twisting of the facts.
There’s no federal takeover in having the feds enforce federal law. That’s the normal process, whether she likes it or not. She doesn’t have the power to stop it. It’s fighting it like this that’s abnormal, un-American, and unacceptable.
She talks about “democracy” but doesn’t seem to believe in the right of the democratically elected president to have immigration law enforced.
She’s making things worse by refusing to work with them. But they aren’t going to stop their actions.
