HE’S RIGHT, YOU KNOW:
It's been said elsewhere: If Bass had fought against the danger of fires with half the intensity she fights for illegal immigrants, LA would be a much better place. (Indeed, parts of LA that no longer exist would still exist.) https://t.co/cmIRyBr28p

DON SURBER: Fire and ICE: Democrats rioting will put California in play. “For a decade now, the media has libeled him as a racist for saying that Mexico and other nations are not sending their best. Republican strategists said they feared he would cost their party the Hispanic vote forever. It is now the most solidly pro-Trump demographic group in the country. MS-13, TdA and other Hispanic thugs live among legal Hispanic citizens. Desperate to turn this into 2020, Democrats side with the thugs, not with the citizens.”

UH-HUH: California Democrats push back on Trump’s decision to mobilize the National Guard.
“Trump is sending 2,000 National Guard troops into LA County — not to meet an unmet need, but to manufacture a crisis. He’s hoping for chaos so he can justify more crackdowns, more fear, more control,” Newsom said in a Sunday post on X, where he also urged people to “stay peaceful.”
Newsom’s comments come after Trump deployed the National Guard despite the governor’s opposition. Guard soldiers can be deployed by governors or the federal government, though it is unusual for a president to call the National Guard into federal service in a state where the governor objects, according to experts.
Several California Democrats criticized the administration’s response to the Los Angeles protests as “inflammatory,” “reckless” and escalatory.
The riots remain “fiery but mostly peaceful.”

The reason migration has struck such a political nerve is not because of immigration per se, though that has arguably been excessive, but because it is perceived as implemented with malice by the left. It is the malice which is hard to forgive.

The racial group with which Trump has the highest approval rating, at 63 percent, is…Hispanics.
It's ceasing to be a narrative violation that as the salience of deportations increases, his popularity with Hispanics grows.
This is just what they want. https://t.co/QFjtEGNAPx
