Blue State Blues: Karen Bass Fights Harder for Illegals than She Ever Did for Residents
by Joel B. Pollak 20 Jun 2025
Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass looked doomed, politically, after the Palisades Fire. But she is attempting a comeback by championing the cause of the rioters against Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
Bass has been a whirlwind of activity ever since black-clad anarchists started throwing bottles at police two weeks ago over ICE raids on criminals who are illegally in the U.S.. Some of the people ICE is picking up in L.A. are hard-core murderers. But the rioters want ICE abolished, and Bass wants the raids to stop.
If she had fought this hard for homeowners in the Pacific Palisades, perhaps more people would be rebuilding by now.
It is surreal to watch Bass and other Democratic politicians unite behind the riots — excuse me, “mostly peaceful protests” — as if they had not lost the last election partly because of their mishandling of the border.
Their agenda is reflected in media coverage, which is obsessed with stories about ICE — many of them false.
On Thursday, Bass promoted a fake news story — one of several hysterical rumors pushed by Democrats — that ICE agents had shown up at Dodger Stadium.
