2. Then why is local law enforcement claiming to be "overwhelmed"? And if they are why didn't Newsome go ahead and take action based on what law enforcement on site are saying?
3. So let the current situation go on? The left has enflamed this by referring to ICE as Gestapo or fascist. They continue to try to legitimize the illegal crossing of our border. This is what they want and by extension you. Own it.
Quote:Fact check: Los Angeles is a sprawling Southern California city that encompasses more than 500 square miles.
Demonstrations and skirmishes between law enforcement and protesters have largely stayed within downtown L.A.’s civic center, an area spanning a few city blocks that is home to courthouses, federal buildings and LAPD headquarters. Some protests have also spilled onto a stretch of the 101 Freeway near a downtown immigration detention center.
All of LA is not a ‘war zone.’ We separate facts from spin and disinformation amid immigration raids

"We are overwhelmed,” McDonnell said at a Sunday evening press conference. “Tonight, we had individuals out there shooting commercial-grade fireworks at our officers. That can kill you.”
“They’ll take a backpack, and the backpack will have a cinderblock in it,” he continued. “They’ll break up the cinderblock and use that, pass it around to throw at officers, to throw at cars and other people.”
Think maybe the police chief may have a better handle on things than you and Gavin? Certainly seems that way.
Think the local police chief knows when he needs the NG or Marines a little better than a demented old orange guy thousands of miles away? 
Good campaign slogan for mid terms. Please run with this

And yes, Newsom and Bass exacerbated the loss caused by the fires. One giant reservoir close to the first fire was empty, and Bass was in Africa, although she was warned that weather conditions were ripe for the possibility of problems.
Plus, I don't even like Trump. Never have, so get that beam out of your eye (or your brain). I simply like the Rs' policies a helluva lot better than the brain-dead idiot whose policies you supported.

And there it is in perfect summation.
Trump maybe a jerk, and not very likable, but he represents policies that I can get on board with. I am not a fan of him personally, but I can see past the messenger and look only at the desired outcomes.

1. LA has never burned to the ground.
2. Local law enforcement is handling it just fine.
3. The more trump sends in the NG and Marines, the more the situation will become enflamed. Of course, that's exactly what he wants...and by extension, you. Own it.
LA has never burned to the ground? Did you miss the wildfires in January? 
Quote:In January 2025, Los Angeles experienced a series of devastating wildfires that resulted in significant loss of life, property damage, and widespread evacuations. The wildfires, particularly the Palisades Fire and Eaton Fire, were exacerbated by drought conditions, low humidity, and strong Santa Ana winds. The fires burned over 57,000 acres and destroyed thousands of homes and structures, leading to at least 29 deaths and forcing over 200,000 residents to evacuate.
You know, managed by Newsom and Karen Bass, who had to return from Africa, even though she was warned about the conditions before she left?

You REALLY need to stop watching fox and listening to that one idiot on twitter. You don't have a ******* clue what actually happened with those fires, at all.
And FWIW, the greater LA area encompasses over 21.5 MILLION acres.
Quote:A 117-million gallon reservoir in one of the Los Angeles communities ravaged by wildfires was out of commission when the fire started in the area on Tuesday.
The Santa Ynez Reservoir in the Pacific Palisades has been closed for repairs after a covering designed to preserve water quality tore. The Los Angeles Times first reported that the reservoir was offline.
The reservoir’s status may have limited the water system’s ability to provide consistent pressure for firefighters, but Marty Adams, a former general manager of the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power, said it is unlikely to have made a significant difference in the battle against the Palisades Fire, which burned through 20,000 acres as of Friday afternoon.
Reservoir in Pacific Palisades was out of commission when fire started
How in the **** was that the mayor or governors fault?
And again, you're clueless. The fire could not be easily stopped due to high winds. There is no city in America with the infrastructure and fire equipment and manpower on hand to be able to simultaneously put out a fire of that magnitude, and it rose to that magnitude due to 80-100 MPH wind gusts!
I guess you expected the mayor and governor to stop the wind.

Yes, they do genius. Whether it be a natural disaster or a riot. And you know damn well its true. It just doesn't fit the false narrative you and your ilk are trying to put forth. You want to blame Trump when it's actually Newsome and the imbecile mayor along with Mad Max and other democrats who are stirring this up. You know that too.

General Jack Keane is on TV agreeing with what you just typed, as I was reading your words. The LA Police Chief said his force was overwhelmed, and the protests are violent, which makes calling up the NG appropriate.

The Santa Ynez Reservoir in the Pacific Palisades was down for repairs for over a year for over a year.

And Tanq has gone into hiding (or maybe protective custody) in this thread after claiming that LA was a peaceful protest, with people just standing around.

Personally, the illegals I know are more pleasant people than most Trump supporters screaming about how billionaires are somehow Marxists, like that makes sense.
