Through this debate. Come on, start a riot.

Hello and welcome to Investigator Earth Podcast. I'm your host Chad alongside my beautiful wife Sherry. On tonight's episode, we're talking about Los Angeles almost on fire again. For the third night in a row, chaos has taken over the streets and it started after ICE carried out a series of immigration raids and now we're seeing Molotov cocktails, violent clashes with police and entire blocks shut down under emergency curfews.

Some say this is the community fighting back against government overreach, and others argue it's just law enforcement doing their job, and the extremists are using it as an excuse to riot. The truth is probably somewhere in between. Tonight we're investigating all of it. What exactly sparked the latest wave of violence? Who's organizing it and what's really going on behind the scenes?

because something about this doesn't feel organic we're going beyond the headlines beyond the spin and straight into the fire guys welcome to the show it is june the 8th 2025 the name of this song is riot by blood red sun we played this song many times because how many riots have we had in seven years quite a few yeah and it's so cute because cnn is saying yeah they're throwing soft water bottles i'm trying to be balanced and look at both sides but when cnn saying oh yeah there's

they're just throwing soft water bottles. Yeah. When you're seeing it on TV, these huge football size rocks going all over these cars. Did you see the dude, the police officer? Yeah.

His finger was almost like half cut off from a rock. I don't know if it went through the car or they got him. I don't know how it happened, but I'm seeing this on videos on CNN as they're talking about it. Yeah, it's huge. What's going on right now in Los Angeles as we are actually recording this episode is about to get much worse. It sounds like overnight.

We have the president of the United States that has now called in the National Guard over the past couple of days. Los Angeles Police Department, including, I believe, also the Sheriff's Department, has been trying to control the crowd. And yet the past two nights, the crowd has not even been close to as big as it is right now. Currently, as we are recording this, we're talking about thousands, thousands.

and thousands of people. The National Guard is in Los Angeles right now. They are trying to protect a federal facility against these rioters and protesters. And that is working out decently, but then the crowd got much bigger. So they had to call in Los Angeles Police Department to also help try to

push back the crowd against or away from the National Guard, because, look, these are military guys. And President Trump has even thought about bringing in active duty Marines from Camp Pendleton. And so earlier, Trump was actually asked about this. We're going to get into that clip in just a little bit. And it was his response, because obviously mainstream media wants to make Trump look like a authoritarian dictator. And so they're like, hey, Trump, are you going to bring in active

duty military on U.S. soil? And so we'll tell you what his answer was. And that was his answer about six hours ago. And things have quickly escalated since then. Yeah, but he said it depends on the situation, what's going on. But we have them on standby. But it was so interesting because we've been watching. I wanted to watch CNN just to see their perspective. And it's

You know, like, oh, Trump is fear mongering everyone and he's escalating this by bringing in the National Guard. But if the governor and the mayor of California would stand up and do their job, he wouldn't have to do their job for them. And listen, we have to be balanced. I understand there is a respectful way to protest. But once you throw something at police or any kind of law enforcement, you're breaking the law and something has to be done. We have to.

to protect law enforcement. That is the priority. They're out there to protect and save our lives and we have to protect them. Our president has to protect them. Yeah. And also too, it's not just protecting our law enforcement. Obviously we have to protect our law enforcement that are out there trying to carry out the duties that are given to them by the commander in chief. This is, we're talking about ice, you know, immigrations and custom enforcement. We're talking about whatever other agency that is doing their actual jobs, right? When, when,

Over the past four years, obviously, you had Biden and Harris administration in office. You had wide open borders. We've been talking about this throughout the presidency of President Biden. And we said, what was going to be the big downfall? What was going to be the big backlash from this wide open border to where millions and millions of people have come across illegally and are now in the country? I mean, we're talking about people like from Venezuela and Honduras and various other countries in South America and Mexico and not just there, but also in the Middle East and China. Yeah.

you name it. There have been people come in across our borders. We have no idea who they are. We know that Venezuelan, the country of Venezuela and many other countries in South America, where they house some of the most violent people in the world, release their entire prison system to come into America. We know that for a fact that that is not a conspiracy theory. That's not a rumor. We know that for sure. I mean, the presidents themselves said that that happened. So, uh,

We know that there are very, very violent people in this country that have come across our border. And we also know that many, many of these people went to California. We know a lot of these people went to not only just California, but Los Angeles. And I think that what we're seeing in Los Angeles is a huge, huge

I guess, marker to where, hey, do you want to see where a lot of these people went? Well, it's Los Angeles. I am actually surprised that probably a lot of these people that are in these riots slash protests are actually probably illegal when they're literally writing against ICE, against federal law enforcement, against the local law enforcement. And so what we're seeing is is

at first started as a protest, but then when you have these agitators and these rioters, and there's a lot of them right now, I mean, a lot of them in a crowd, it's not just a few. There was a lot of them that are throwing rocks. They are throwing Molotov cocktails. They are throwing probably hard water bottles, bricks, you name it. They're throwing it at law enforcement and,

then they have to do something. I understand that we do have a constitutional right to protest. There's no question about that. But once it gets violent, that is when it becomes a unlawful assembly or unlawful protest. I have two questions for you. Is it lawful to protest if you are a illegal immigrant protesting in a different country, number one? And then number two, CNN said it was a very diverse crowd. I didn't see that today. I thought that

Antifa is missing right now. Yeah, they are. Yeah, for sure. Well, no, I mean, there's definitely some far left Karens out there. I mean, I've seen videos of those. Very few, though. Very, very few. I have not seen a lot of them. A lot of what you're seeing in these protests, in these massive crowds, it does look like either Hispanic or South American descent of some way, shape or form. A lot of these people have Mexican flags. They have Venezuelan flags, Honduran flags. Yeah, you name it. They are. They are.

waving these flags in the streets while they're burning police cars. They're throwing motorcycles going around and around cars that are burning on fire. Yeah. And they're throwing rocks at federal vehicles. They are doing all of this stuff. I mean, this is what appears to be almost an invasion. Now, this is what Trump and the administration over the past four years has called an invasion continuously. It says anytime you have wide open borders, it's where a president is just leaving the borders wide open. You're allowing any and everyone in across your country

Across your border, violent criminals, terrorists, you name it. That is an invasion. And I think that we are now starting to see the result of this. And we have always asked ourselves, why would the why would the Democrats, why would the left, why would the Biden-Harris administration want so badly for our borders to be wide open? And we've seen this very similar thing happen in the United Kingdom. We've seen we saw in Ireland. We saw all across Europe.

And what did we see there? Well, we saw very similar things happen. What we have seen over the past year or two in the UK alone is we would see these same type of protests. Now, a lot of the people over in Europe are from the Middle East. There is a lot of Muslims that have migrated to Europe and they have had their borders wide open as well.

And so what a lot of this caused was riots and uprisings. And once the riots and uprisings started in Europe, the government took the side of the people that were mostly illegal, not citizens of these countries, and they took their side over their own citizens. And any citizen that came out and said anything against this, they would then show up at these people's houses because they made a social media post saying,

having a problem with the fact that they have their streets filled full of people. They have no idea if they are violent or not. And many, in many cases, there has been a lot of violent instances happen in these countries, but it's not those people that are being arrested. It is the citizens themselves that are being arrested for posting anything against this. Now,

I want to go ahead and say this, this podcast, we are, we, we try in every way, shape or form to be the most balanced we possibly can. We just did a South African episode where we talked about the, what was the big story, I guess, in South Africa, they're calling white genocide. There's a lot of white farmers that are being murdered. They're blaming it on the, the South African natives, which is by the way, like 94% or 93% black and,

is South Africa. Only 7% or so of South Africa is white.

And everybody's like, oh, my God, we can't believe this happening until you actually get into the history of what has been going on in South Africa, which is the apartheid, which is where 7% of the population of whites didn't allow any of the blacks to vote. And then all of a sudden you're like, oh, I don't understand why this would be happening. Why do blacks hate all the whites here now? I mean, there's a reason for stuff, right? And so we understand that and we try our very best to be balanced. But we do have to be very real about what's going on in this episode about white

Los Angeles about what we probably knew was, was to come. And so we're going to do our best to be balanced. But before we get into that, we do want to say a lot of people have been asking, and we actually forgot partway on the last episode to put the link into our merchandise store, but we do officially have merchandise that is investigate earth store.com investigate or a store.com. We have podcast marks. We have stuff with aliens on it. We have stuff with, uh,

just conspiracy type things. But we're also going to be adding shirts and merchandise that don't even have our podcast name on it. Just shirts that if you want to wear it and look cool, you don't want a podcast name on it, but you want maybe a cool alien shirt. I got a new one coming out. That's awesome. I just finally got that design done. But what we're going to do with these designs is we're only going to keep them for one month and we're going to

Take them out, put new designs in. So they're a limited edition only. Yeah. And we have actually quite a few of our listeners that are helping us with design. So if you see a shirt that has like a name at the end. So like right now we have the Justin collection, our good friend and longtime listener, Justin. He designed probably our most popular shirt right now. I love that shirt. And I haven't even got it yet, but I want it. I want my actually my screensaver of my phone is of that shirt. Yeah.

Well, a lot of our, a lot of our people on telegram, they, once Justin posted that and he's like, Hey, check this, check this design out. Fire. Everybody loves it. So Justin, good job. Um, and I'm probably next going to be trying to design. Um, what I want to do is maybe like a design, a city that's like on fire with bricks flying through the air. Yeah. We really should do something like that. And then have fire hydrants that are empty. You know, maybe add that. No. And it says, no, but listen, and it says mostly peaceful protest. Yeah.

Dude, we got to do that. That's a good shirt. Oh, my gosh. We'll figure that out. But anyways, let me go ahead and tell you guys what's really going on and kind of where all this started. But real quick, if you want to go to our store, it's investigateearthstore.com. Yeah, I said that. But, you know, you say it again because we need them to go there. And I will do our very best to put the link in the description this time. So what started the riots? Friday, June the 6th, Federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement, also known as ICE,

Agents executed large-scale raids targeting workplaces across Los Angeles, including a clothing warehouse in the Fashion District and a Home Depot that resulted in at least 44 administrative arrests for alleged immigration violations. These operations sparked immediate backlash, and protesters gathered at these sites, and clashes broke out with federal agents who used stun grenades, tear gas, and flashbangs. LAPD declared an unlawful assembly by evening, moving to disperse the crowd.

And then on day two, Saturday, June 7th, which was yesterday, protests continued and spread to the cities like Paramount and Compton and demonstrators engaged in aggressive tactics, blocking streets, throwing rocks and even Molotov cocktails. Federal agents responded to pepper balls and tear gas, and at least one car was set ablaze. Now, California Attorney General Bill Esaily, acting U.S. attorney, confirmed union leader David Hirta was arrested amid the unrest.

DHS reported up to 1,000 protesters involved with two federal officers and three deputies injured. And so Saturday night, President Trump signed a presidential memorandum authorizing the deployment of 2,000 National Guard troops to Los Angeles County under Title 10, marking one of the first such deployments without a governor's request since the 1965 Selma-McGumray marches.

And some Marines from Camp Pendleton were put on high alert with the fence secretary, Pete Hegseth, stating that active duty forces could be mobilized if violence escalates. And by the way, it is escalating right now on a massive scale. The first National Guard units began arriving this morning,

And so there's all kinds of stuff. There's, there's this political fallout and statements. President Trump characterized the protests as riots and looters calling for aggressive action and criticizing local and state leaders, governor Gavin Newsom and LA mayor Karen Bass for being ineffective. And then obviously Gavin Newsom has had a lot to say about this as well. Uh, Gavin Newsom took two X or Twitter, however you want to say it. And he said, every single Democrat governor agrees. Donald Trump's attempt to militarize California are, uh,

is an alarming abuse of power. He also says just one hour ago, I have formally requested the Trump administration rescind their unlawful deployment of troops in Los Angeles County and return them to my command. We did not have a problem until Trump got involved. This is a serious breach of state sovereignty. Inflame intentions while pulling resources from where they're actually needed. Resend the order, return control to California.

But the problem is, is that they did not have this under control until the National Guard arrived. The reason why National Guard had to be called to begin with is because Los Angeles Police Department in Los Angeles County, I think it's Los Angeles County or Orange County. Maybe it's Los Angeles County. But anyways, they could not handle it. And we have to remember that thousands of rioters slash protesters.

It requires a lot of officers. And when you have this many officers that are having to go out and to try to do whatever they can possibly do to stop a full blown riot in the streets of Los Angeles, that takes away all the other resources from the city of Los Angeles. Right. And Los Angeles is not a very safe place to live anymore. No, it's not. I mean, that's why most people are leaving Los Angeles. So what you're doing is, is you're bringing all

officers to this one place while the rest of the city is highly neglected where people's lives are actually being at risk because you don't have the resources to be able to respond to actual emergencies. We were watching a YouTube video guy. He was live streaming. He was on a regular, uh,

bicycle with a motor. He's like, I heard this stuff's going on. Yeah. An e-bike. I'm going to go through and try to find this area. He didn't even know where it was, but it was really interesting as he's going through on his motorcycle bike, whatever you want to call it, e-bike. He has to go through streets with tents of homeless people. Yeah. Everywhere to these riots. And then he sees these riots. And what is the definition to you between peaceful protests and riots? Well,

What makes the difference to you, Chad? What is the definition to you that would make it peaceful protests versus riots? Well, obviously, it's violence. Yeah, it's violence. Once you start throwing things at other opposing people, it turns to violence. And then the law enforcement has to take control and they have to make actions to keep themselves safe and keep the buildings safe.

And that was what's happening, like especially yesterday. I saw a lot of the pepper spray gun things going on. Pepper balls going off and stuff to just back people out and get them out of the area. There was no like...

I guess pushing and shoving, not too much. Not as much. But today I've seen a lot of that. Oh, it's tons. I mean, there's a lot of fighting going on. The front lines are, I mean, it is a massive fight on the front lines. But we have to remember what happened in Kenosha, Wisconsin. We have to remember what has happened in many cities across America when these protests turn into riots. And that is what Trump and the administration and even local law enforcement in most cases do not want to happen. They do not want

protesters to become into a massive right. Because what happens in these situations is you have situations where people actually get killed. You have businesses are burnt down. I remember back, I believe it was Kenosha, Wisconsin, where someone just accidentally drove through the city. There were, there just happened to be two white people in a BLM riot and

And they got pulled out of their car and damn near beaten to death. And so we also remember, I think it was maybe Seattle or Portland, one of the other cities that had these major riots. I remember when the law enforcement were trapped inside of their freaking precinct and the rioters completely surrounded the building and were about to burn down the building with officers inside. Yeah. This is what happened. Yeah. And that's kind of what happened this time, too. I think in the beginning when these rioters

peaceful protests were happening they locked ice into a building yeah they did yeah well they did that's what actually really started this whole thing that's when the fbi came in so ice was doing a raid at this facility or this uh i guess business in los angeles this was two days ago

And so at that time, once ICE came into the building, the owner of the building, from what we hear, locked the ICE agents somehow inside of the building and then allowed the protesters slash rioters to surround the building. That is when FBI came in, basically kind of to rescue the ICE agents that went in to make these arrests.

or to whatever they were doing. And so this is what started this. Now, obviously for whoever that business owner is, it's not going to be good for them because that is definitely not something you want to do. But I do want to play this quick clip. This is Tom Homan. He is the border czar for and under President Trump. This is what he had to say just the day before yesterday. And we're going to show you kind of how all of this has escalated over the past two days and what we're likely to see happen going forward because I'm telling you tonight,

which is, you know, like I said, June the 8th, I think it could escalate very fast. And so I told Shira, I was like, well, we've got to do an episode now on it, but if it gets really bad, we may have to do another one. Here's what Tom Homan had to say on the Big Weekend Show on Fox. Here you go. Responding to these protests, and thanks for joining us tonight.

Look, we're going to continue doing our job. And yesterday we got 118 arrests. You know, I was out here yesterday to kick off this operation. And what people aren't talking about is I served, you know, several warrants yesterday. These were criminal warrants. This is a criminal investigation.

And today, we're continuing operations. They're not going to shut us down. We're out there right now doing operations. We're going to keep doing operations. We brought in more resources to push back the protesters. But I'll say it again, a serious warning. You can protest all you want. You got your First Amendment rights. But if you cross that line of impediment, or you're putting hands on officers or destroy property, you will be prosecuted. There's zero tolerance here.

on and crossing that lines. And that's what we're standing by. We're bringing more resources as we speak. We have more resources tonight. We're going to continue doing the job that American people voted Donald Trump in office to do. And we're not going to apologize for doing it. Tom, it's Alicia Acuna again. Thank you so much for being here during the protest yesterday. A Los Angeles city council member called for mobilization against ICE. Listen.

They know how quickly we mobilize. That's why they're changing tactics, because community defense works and our resistance has slowed them down before. And if they're escalating their tactics, then so are we. When they show up, we got to show up even stronger. So, Tom, will the Trump administration take action against these public officials who are threatening ICE agents with resistance?

Absolutely. I think Pam Bondi and the Department of Justice are looking at that. And, you know, like I said many times, these elected officials or these non-government organizations, they can't cross the line either. I mean, we got people like, you know, Hakeem Jeffries saying he's going to dox ICE employees. You know, ICE agents out there with masks on. They're wearing masks to protect themselves and their families because they've been doxed, their families have been doxed, their lives have been threatened, their families have been threatened.

I know myself, I had over a thousand protesters in my house. I expect that as the borders are, but these men and women are putting their lives on line every day. They arrested a lot of bad people yesterday and today. They arrested child sex offenders. They arrested people convicted of robbery. They arrested public safety, not only significant public safety threats, but national security threats. They arrested gang members. We're making Los Angeles safer. And Mayor Bass ought to be thanking us for making her city safer.

And the term migrant, as Joe Concha rightfully said earlier, they're illegal aliens. There are illegal aliens in this country, and we welcome them. We're the most given country in the world. But these are illegal aliens who committed a crime by crossing this border illegally, then yet committed another crime. Again, yesterday's about a criminal investigation into murder laundering, tax evasion, and some of the funds going to cartels in Mexico and Colombia.

that fund their operations of sending narcotics to this country, killing American people. I want to pause for a second because I don't think most people realize that, you know, these protests are riots, quote unquote, right? Mm-hmm.

Whatever NGOs like the Open Society Foundation, which is the George Soros Foundation, which heavily funded and it is a non-government organization. It is a globalist organization. It is the same organization that has heavily funded the mass uprisings in the UK and across Europe and other places around the world as well, including Hungary, etc.

And also in the United States during the George Floyd riots, during the Ferguson, you name it. These NGOs have been funding these riots. The NGOs have also funded caravans of these people to come from all around the world. They were literally funding bus rides across Mexico. They were funding caravans on tractor and trailer, the flatbed tractor and trailers.

They did any and everything to bring as many possible people across the border as they possibly could. And they do this to utilize against our government, against our sovereignty. This is what they want to do. They want to disrupt our sovereignty. They want to destroy America from within. And yes, they absolutely want to make whoever is in office now, which is President Trump and the Republicans and whoever look extremely bad, like Trump can't handle this, but Trump's going to handle this. And unfortunately, they're going to make him look even worse for actually handling the situation at hand.

But the thing about it is, is in law enforcement, for example. Hello, it is Ryan. And we could all use an extra bright spot in our day, couldn't we? Just to make up for things like sitting in traffic, doing the dishes, counting your steps, you know, all the mundane stuff. That is why I'm such a big fan of Chumba Casino.

If you are trying to protect or try to stop law enforcement from coming into a certain area because they are going to go make an arrest because there is someone there that is wanted for some type of crime, whatever that crime is, and you do not allow law enforcement to go into that residence or into that place, that is called obstruction, number one. That is obstruction 100%. These protests are being utilized by the NGOs to obstruct people

the federal government to take out the worst of the worst offenders that have come across our border. Tom Homan and ICE has said this repeatedly. The people we're going to go after primarily, at least right now, are the people that are violent offenders. You know, we have lost people already to some of these illegals that have come across our border, like Lakin Riley, like many others that have been murdered or raped from some of these people. We're not saying all of the people that have come across are rapists or murderers.

But we are saying that at least ISIS is trying to do their job by getting violent offenders, getting cartel members and gang members out of our country. And what these protests are being utilized for is that the NGOs know that we need these people the most in America to do their dirty work. They want the rioters. They want the criminals. They want the cartels.

Because this is how they want to upend America from within. And if we are having the ICE and all the federal authorities go in and start taking out some of the main leaders of these organized crime units across our country, it really hurts the NGO's overall plan to basically kill America from within. I agree. And when you look at mainstream media, right?

And a lot of people watch mainstream media. You're seeing people saying, oh, they're going into schools and they're taking kids out of school and they're deporting their families that have been here for 15 years and they're doing this and that.

And we have to look at that issue because even the guy in Maryland that was the father, what did they call him? The Maryland dad. The Maryland dad that was accidentally exported. Is that what you call him? Deported. Deported. He wasn't accidentally, though. Well, it was an accident. They even said it was an accident. But he had ties to gang members and he should have been deported. Mm hmm.

But my thing is... Well, they brought him back now, by the way. Did they? Yeah, he's back in U.S. custody. Oh, wow. And now he's going to be tried for trafficking and all that stuff. Yeah, sex trafficking. Yeah, supposedly. Now, one of my things with that is like, why didn't they do that to begin with? I think what they did is they brought him back for a political move. Now, whether or not he's actually...

guilty of those charges that the DOJ and all that are accusing him of now. They dropped the charges originally or something. Well, no, it's just they deported him, right? They said, oh, here's a deal. And then once they deported him, there was this big backlash about it. Then they brought him back now. And now the DOJ is actually charging him with these crimes. And so...

There's a lot of people that just believe that the fact they brought him back and then and is now charging with all these crimes is just kind of like, hey, see, he is bad. Right. And it's kind of like a political move. I understand people's point on that. But nonetheless, I just want to point out that these protests and riots are.

Something that I believe the NGOs are using as an obstruction. I get that. From ICE being able to take out the worst of the worst people. And like I'm saying, mainstream media is making people feel like they are uprooting people that have been here for 15 years and deporting them. Yeah. Just normal people. And I think it probably does happen more than we know. Yeah.

Yeah, I get where people don't want families broken up or whatever. But in order to handle the crime and the open borders for the last four years, we have to do something to stop it and to close our borders or we're going to be just like the UK. Yeah, absolutely. Yeah. I mean, the thing is, is that we as America, we welcome people from all over the world, right, to go through lawfully and go through a process to do this. And there's a reason why you have a process to bring people in.

You know, it's just like I can't even tell you how many stories of people that have been over on visas or or maybe one of the family members got over on a visa and they can't even get their rest of their family over because it is such a hard ass process to get in America. Right. And then, you know, then you see the borders being open for four years. And a lot of these people that have been working their ass off to become U.S. citizens were.

or to get their other family members over from even places like, for example, Ukraine or some of these war zone areas, places where they actually need to get out of. Yes. A lot of these people can't even get their family members over here. Their family members are stuck in whatever countries they're in. And yet now we have people that are in places like Los Angeles, where these cities are completely in turmoil right now. And a lot of these people that are,

rioting are probably illegal. I mean, a lot of them are, they're literally waving their country's flags and burning car police cars down, throwing rocks and assaulting police officers. That is an issue, but I want to finish what the rest of what Tom Homan says here.

This is about enforcing the law. And again, we're not going to apologize for doing it. We're stepping up. She says they're going to mobilize. Well, guess what? We're already ahead of the game. We were already mobilizing. We're going to bring National Guard in tonight. We're going to continue doing our job. We're going to push back on these people and we're going to force the law.

Tom, it's Lydia Hu, and I want to ask you a little bit more about these Democrat demands that ICE agents be unmasked. Some Democrats are saying that if they don't unmask, they're threatening to dox them. Listen to this. I don't know of any police department that routinely wears masks.

We know that there are other groups that routinely wear masks. NSC 131 routinely wears masks. Sending masked men to snatch, kidnap and disappear immigrants of all legal statuses across the country. Every single one of them, no matter what it takes, no matter how long it takes, will of course be identified.

I wonder if you can speak to that a little bit. Explain to us more. Help everyone understand the threat that our ICE agents are facing by just doing their job, why they need to wear these masks, and also what actions need to be taken against Democrats who are demanding that they be unmasked. And what would happen if they do dox them and at least publish their identities?

Look, it's incredible. We're at a place where the guys, the men and women who enforce law, they're the bad guys and the ones who break the law are the victims. Are you kidding me? How come they didn't say anything about BLM? They were all there. They were unmasked. How about the protests at all the college campuses? They were protesting against Israel and the Jewish students. They were wearing masks. I didn't hear a word about that for these protesters wearing masks. But ICE agents are wearing masks for one reason, because the assault on ICE officers is up over 400%.

THE SALTANIS OFFICERS. THERE ARE BEING DOCS ACROSS THE COUNTRY. AND THEIR FAMILIES ARE BEING ATTACKED. THEIR FAMILIES ARE BEING DOCS. THEIR FAMILIES ARE BEING THREATENED. AND I CERTAINLY UNDERSTAND IT. I HAVE A LOT OF DEATH THREATS. I'VE BEEN DOCS. MY FAMILY HAS BEEN DOCS. I UNDERSTAND IT. BUT THEY'RE WEARING MASKS FOR ONE REASON ONLY. PROTECT THEMSELVES AND THEIR FAMILIES.

They're doing a dangerous job. This is already a dangerous job. They got to wear a gun. They got to put on a Kevlar vest every day because they're doing a dangerous job every day. While the rest of these people, like Hakeem Jeffries, are sleeping in his bed at night at 3 a.m., nice and comfortably and safe, there's men in wind of ice on the street doing surveillance on significant public safety threats, really bad characters, and national security threats. There are 10...

All right. So I'm going to stop it there. Look, and I want everybody to understand. I don't think most people realize this. They're getting caught up in the politics of this, but this is a war on our soil. We've known this was going to come. And I don't think this is just one aspect of the war that is to come. When we thought like people that voted for Trump, for example,

And listen, I'll be honest. I have called out Trump for a lot of stuff that I do not like that he has done so far. 100%. Think about the Epstein files. Still hasn't got those released. Cash Patel is out here being like, no, trust me, bro. There are no files. There's nothing to see here. And then Pam Bondi, literally like a month before that, was like, we got tons of videos showing kids being basically raped. Yeah. And then Elon says they're not coming up because Trump was on the files. Yeah. I mean, which is, you know, and then you have J.D. Vance.

You have J.D. Vance come out on the Theo Vaughn podcast where he's like, listen, I know Trump. He's not involved in that whatsoever. But who the hell knows who is involved anymore, considering we're never going to see the files. It seemed like that everyone was like, yeah, man, when Trump and Cash Patel and and Pam Bondi and all these people get into office, we're finally going to have transparency. And yet you're getting a lot of the same. You're getting a lot of the same bullshit from the politicians and from the government that.

We all want to know, like, who is at the end of the Epstein sex trafficking ring? Who is on those videos? Who are the powerful people? Who are all these people? But we'll never know that because they're never going to release the files because they're protecting people. Well, of course they are. And they're protecting people on both sides.

But my point to this is, is that this is a war on our soil. This is what is happening. I think the first wave that we are seeing right now is the wave of these riots. This is what we're going to see. We have more, the NGOs that have created the riots and funded and influenced the riots during the BLM riots, during the Antifa riots, all these others, they had limited amount of people to work with during that time. But imagine now that the NGOs are

that have paid for these rioters to come across our borders, uh,

Imagine how much power that they can move their troops now. And we've been talking about this. What is going to be the outfall of this? What are these people going to do eventually? What are these terrorist cells likely that are in the United States? We know that there are terrorist cells for sure in the United States, sleeper cells, and there are multiple of them. And we're not even talking about cartel members. We're not even talking about that. That's bad enough. And we've had cartel in the United States that law enforcement deals with on a daily basis, and we have for 10 or 20 years.

Yeah, but a lot of these migrants are in with the cartel. Yes. Well, that's what I'm saying. I mean, obviously, we have more cartel members in the United States now than we've ever had. We've dealt with cartel for years, but we now have more cartel and more organized crime in America than we've probably ever had. We have more terrorist cells from the Middle East and wherever, likely also China and Russia. We've talked about them on many episodes.

where there were at least 40,000 Chinese national military age men that came across, not, not cross the border. They had specialized transportation from, uh, the Northern South America, uh, Ecuador. Yeah. Ecuador. They would go by boat into California and they, they would all kind of offload in California. Yeah.

the also interesting thing about the Chinese national men that would come across, there were usually between the ages of 18 and 24. Most of the time didn't have any females or kids or any of that stuff with them. Um, they all had usually military haircuts and step into the world of power, loyalty,

and luck. I'm going to make him an offer he can't refuse. With family, cannolis, and spins mean everything. Now, you want to get mixed up in the family business.

they had these elaborate setups in Ecuador where they had food and water and shelter and all this stuff. It was kind of like a base camp for an invasion. And so we saw this leading the whole past four years. We saw these things taking place and it wasn't just the Chinese nationals. We had Russians that were coming in. We had people from the Middle East, from Afghanistan and Iran and

you name it, all of the places that, you know, we always hear the hates America. We've had very organized, coordinated efforts to bring in as many of these people as possible. And so what we're seeing in Los Angeles right now, I think is the first wave because I, you know, and what I was originally saying was,

When people are like, hey, Trump's in office now, everything's going to be good. I've said, don't get your hopes up quite yet because we just don't 100% know what's to come. I think that what's going to happen over the next three years is going to be all out chaos. I think that what we're seeing right now in this summer is just the tip of the iceberg. And I think what we're about to see is going to be much worse. But

There's this guy, Sean Farage. He was talking about this. And I want to play this quick clip and we're going to get into some some deeper stuff here in just a moment. Listen, the riots in Los Angeles cannot be taken lightly, not by us and not by this administration. If we really do care about law and order, then it is time to decisively, conclusively put down these riots that are taking place in Los Angeles. Because if you don't, just like what happened in 2020, it's only going to get worse.

Now, the left is going to whine about the First Amendment and peaceful protests. There is nothing peaceful about attacking police officers. There is nothing peaceful about lighting vehicles on fire. There is nothing peaceful about obstructing roadways. And there is nothing peaceful about obstructing Immigration and Customs Enforcement from doing their jobs, deporting the very illegals that you're in the streets for. And that's the other thing. How many times have we heard

that, oh, these illegal immigrants, these undocumented aliens, whatever that means, are just coming into the United States in search of a better life. That's wonderful. But there's a process to follow. There are laws to follow. And if you don't follow those laws and you're caught in here after illegally entering the country, you're going back. You're going somewhere else. You can't stay. You have these people who are allegedly in search of a better life,

in the streets of Los Angeles, waving the flags of foreign countries, sending a message that Los Angeles and possibly America is under siege, under attack. They're not here for a better life. They're here to wreck your life. It is time to take these illegal riots. It is time to take the people funding these illegal riots, because it's way too coordinated to be organic. And it is time to apply the harshest of consequences to ensure that

that it stops here and it stops now. This isn't a joke. And I don't want to hear tough talk. I want to see tough action because we've seen what happens when this behavior goes unchecked. We need people to be arrested. We need people to be jailed. We need consequences to be levied on those individuals and on those organizations.

so that anybody who dreams of funding, organizing, or taking part in an illegal, destructive riot like we saw in Los Angeles is deterred from doing it.

If we don't have consequences, it's only going to get worse. I agree. And I want to say this too with this is that, you know, with everybody, mainstream media and all these people bitching about, you know, ICE and federal authorities and National Guard, and especially with all these people that are waving foreign flags in our city streets. What I will tell those mainstream media personalities is that

You're going to be reporting on some much worse if federal authorities don't deal with this over the citizens eventually having to deal with this because they're

When right now it is a mitigated, it is a controlled law enforcement effort to try to control the situation and try to get America as safe as possible. Because as we've already talked about, there are many people that have come across our border that are very, very violent people. We're talking about terrorist cells. We're talking about foreign nations. Think about how many people, how many countries, uh,

have a vested interest in America going down. We're talking about China. We're talking about Russia. We're talking about Iran. We're talking about various other countries. And especially now that Trump has got in, he's tariffing the shit out of so many of these countries. America wants to come back to the power that it once was. And a lot of these countries, they do not like that. They do not want America to become powerful. They want it to be destroyed. So a lot of countries have a very, very vested interest in America

having their assets inside of America to do their dirty work. And, you know, just the other day, I want to point out something and Sam, one of our listeners and a good friend as she's more of a listener, she's a friend of ours. She's been on the show many times. She had sent me a text message yesterday or day before saying,

And she had said, hey, did you notice these TFRs or these things that are all over the eastern seaboard, northeast, all this stuff? TFR is a temporary flight restriction. And I was like, that's weird because one of them was over Washington, D.C. And I was like, well, that's normal because TFRs are always over Washington, D.C. because of the obviously White House and all this stuff. But then you started seeing these TFRs over the same exact places.

that were during the New Jersey drone incidents. So over New York, New Jersey. Right. Then you also saw these massive TFRs that were over Fort Bragg, the Fort Bragg, North Carolina, Fayetteville area. There were like three or four TFRs all over there. I think that one said it was for VIP transport. But if you looked at the TFRs that were over New Jersey again, New York, all this stuff, the TFR actually said that it was for unvaccinated

cleared drones that this TFR was for. So apparently the New Jersey and New York area was once again in a TFR zone where

because of unauthorized drone activity again. Now, you got to remember that when Trump came in office and even before that, before Trump even got in office, Trump was like, yeah, Trump was like, well, we're going to get to the bottom of where the drones are coming from. And, you know, we're going to find out. And then once Trump got in office or like someone came out, I was like, no, no, they're good. They're all FFA approved and nothing to worry about here. But if you actually read the TFR, it literally says that

unauthorized drones. And I want to, let me get to that just real quick. I literally posted it. And the reason I'm saying this stuff is because you remember when we were talking about

that we don't know how many people or what sleeper cells or whoever may be in this country right now. We also know that how warfare is being conducted also, which is in large part by drones nowadays. Look at Ukraine or Russia war, look at all of these other places. And so it says most notably the FAA issued a rare airspace restriction over parts of New York and New Jersey in response to a surge in drone activity near critical infrastructure. Okay.

That's the key near critical infrastructure. Now, if we think also about who is the most advanced probably in drones, uh,

Let me tell you who the most advanced country in drones are is China by far. I mean, I'm talking about by far China is the most advanced in drones. They have some of the most amazing drone shows in China. But not only that, most military guys will tell you or guys that are in the kind of intelligence agency space will say that China likely has the most advanced type of drones. Maybe some of the stuff that we're seeing UFO type stuff.

China probably has better potential advanced technology than we do. But it goes on to say that drone operations are now banned over 30 utility sites in New York and 22 in New Jersey, citing concerns over security of essential services. This was just the other day. And Sam pointed this out and was like, well, let me research what this TFR even means.

So there's been a threat to essential services, meaning power grid is what I kind of the more I looked into it. New York and New Jersey are huge power grid areas. There are some of the biggest power grid locations and sites over New Jersey and New York that we have in the entire country. And so they then issued this TFR for zero drone power.

activity anywhere near this area, which means they have had threats over this area again, which also goes back to when the FAA came out and said, oh, these are all federal aviation authorized drones that you guys all saw over the past six months or a year. It's all bullshit, right? It's very similar to the story of when cash Patel came out. It was like, oh yeah, Epstein files, nothing to see here. None of that. My point is all to say this, and this is what I was, this is what I was talking about. I think this is just, it's the tip of the iceberg, Sherry.

uh the the what's happening in los angeles with ice stuff and and the riots this is going to ramp up in a big way there's no question about that so just keep your uh keep your head on a swivel and make sure you're looking out for what's about to come and i get what you're saying and i think they are unrelated but i think it is the tip of the iceberg because there are people that are coming in

across the borders from different countries that have different forms of way of protest, riots, domestic terrorism. Yes. And I think in these no flight zones, this could be more like of Chinese nationalism. Yeah, absolutely. Yeah, for sure. Yeah. That's what I'm saying. I mean, we've got so many issues right now in our country. It's not just the L.A. riots. It's not just the ICE immigration protests.

And think about this, too. We better really be watching everything going on right now, too. When all of this L.A. rights is all over the media, what else is really going on in the background? Or they may be utilizing this to make you know, to kind of get the government's attention off of.

much bigger that is to come. And we've always and often been worried about terrorist attacks that may be happening. Especially domestic. Yeah, I've been worried about the hell out of that. Like, when is going to be the next 9-11? Hopefully never. Yeah, because we don't have bomb shelters like Israel does. We don't have anywhere to go if we were attacked within. Yeah, and the thing is, I don't even think that they would necessarily have to utilize a bomb, even though they may have a nuclear device in this country. But I'm talking about

drones and missiles and things like that. I understand that. Yeah. But what I'm telling you is, is that drones can carry, you know, suitcase size nuclear weapons. Yes. And they can literally carry these and put them over city centers. Ryan Seacrest here.

I mean, you don't have to have, you know, if you remember like the mainstream media where they'll show like Russia or China, you know, taking those massive missiles down the streets of their countries or their cities or whatever. You don't have to have that for nuclear weapons anymore. You literally just have to have a football size nuclear weapon on a drone and drop it over New York.

And you wonder why Trump is worried about having our own Iron Dome. No, duh. We need one. But how are we going to prevent it from within the cities or the countries? You don't. That's the thing. And I think we've already been infiltrated to a degree that we got to really figure out how to deal with this. And hopefully this administration can figure that out because, like I said, I'm much more worried than I think a lot of people. I think a lot of us forgot about everything that we were worried about four years ago. But it hasn't stopped. It's not over yet.

We just have to understand that, you know, we have to be very vigilant on what's to come. Now, as you just heard the last guy that we played and kind of his stance on this, let me play you some people from the left side and what they say about these ice riots. With the National Guard getting deployed in California, you have to remind yourself that members of ICE, members of the National Guard are people and they respond to pressure.

They do not want to face a bunch of their own citizens demanding that they stop doing something. That's the reason they're wearing masks. They don't want to be identified by their community members.

Every step towards this bleak dystopia that we take, it becomes more and more important that we pull in the opposite direction and people stand, lock arms, and be like, "No, you're not going to do this." And the more they see that people hate what they're doing and see that they're not just going to be able to run roughshod over immigrant communities, the less popular this administration will become and the more this will unwind.

People will refuse service. People will not want to do these ICE raids. And there will be an internal rebellion. So, I guess if you ever wanted to stand up against anything in your entire life, now is the time. We can stop this. It doesn't have to be this way.

And Los Angeles shows you that that's true. Folks, we're entering the summer of immigration raids, unfortunately, by the Trump administration, trying to round people up and deport them as fast as they can and hoping that people don't take notice. So here are some things that I think we need to do to make sure that everybody knows what's going on.

First of all, when you see atrocious videos that depict horrible actions by the Trump administration, share them, comment on them, everything. Make sure that we play the algorithm smartly because the more you engage on things, the more it is showed by more people. So reshare, like, comment, do all of those things to make sure that everybody's seeing what's going on.

Another thing you can do is donate to the ACLU, which is filing cases against the administration anytime they think that anything illegal is happening, which is pretty much all the time. So they need all the resources they can get. Also give money to pro-immigrant groups so that they can also help educate communities on what their rights are and how they can fight back.

And finally, if you are in a position to help on the ground, go to protests, film everything. Do not make any aggressive moves towards any law enforcement whatsoever. They have to be peaceful. And make sure that everybody knows what is going on. The more people that show up to these protests, the less likely it is that ISIS could be able to complete their mission. So show up in numbers and be peaceful.

I'm not going to lie, this is going to be a very rough few months, but this is the time that we all need to stand up and say no to this. We're not going to be 100% successful, but if we can stop some of these raids from happening, that is good news.

So, yeah. So there's some of the left's reaction, I guess, to the ice raids, as they call them. And what I would love to know is, like, why were they not here when the Biden-Harris administration was mandating vaccines in people's arms, experimental vaccines of that? Like, why were they not saying how they were to protect themselves from

from an experimental vaccine that we had no idea what the hell was going to do. And now we have since found out it has been not very good for a lot of people. They were lining up getting those vaccines. Oh, absolutely. And they were pushing on social media. They were doing the same type of videos they're doing now against ICE and against

the raids on criminals that are inside of the United States that ISIS trying to take out of the United States there, they were doing the same videos pro vaccine or pro mandate or pro authoritarianism or pro you getting fired and losing your job and everything that you've ever worked for because you refuse the vaccine that was experimental. And we know now that has had massive side effects and consequences on many people, millions of people around the world.

I mean, this is this is the I guess society that we deal with now. Unfortunately, we have a one set mindset. There is a what I would call, I guess, a.

a disease in this country. It has been infiltrated throughout society. It has been infiltrated through ideology. It has been infiltrated by making out, you know, number one, they went against Trump and they wanted to put him in prison. They, they did, they upgraded misdemeanor charges, which they didn't even really have proof of to begin with two felonies, 34 counts. They did any and everything they possibly could to put Trump in jail. They tried to kill Trump. They tried to assassinate him multiple times, but,

And yet now it's like, well, they just continue to do the same bullshit talking points and the social media companies and the, and all of the,

All of social media companies still push this bullshit narrative. And yet you still have, you know, you had Mark Zuckerberg once Trump became president. He would come out and say, you know, we're going to start doing what X did and we're going to make sure that everybody have freedom of speech, freedom of speech all of a sudden, guys. I mean, which basically was him saying, yeah, we never had freedom of speech, especially if you were on the right or you were a patriot or you loved America, right?

Like if you, I mean, there were, there were pictures of Jesus Christ that Facebook was censoring, you know, during the Biden and Harris administration. I mean, they were censoring it saying it was, uh, violent or vulgar or whatever. And this is what they did. And then all of a sudden, of course, Mark Zuckerberg came out. I was like, no, don't worry guys. Um, we're going to be freedom of speech now. Uh,

You know, and I never wanted to do that. Yeah. And like you said, once he mentioned, yeah, we're going to do that. The government made us do that. We were doing that. He admitted that they were doing that and that they were going to try to do better in these four years while Trump is president. But guess what? They're not going to do that much better because they are banking on.

Trump's not going to be there in four years. They don't have to really put it all out there. Yeah, for sure. Well, there was this girl on TikTok, too. She lives in Los Angeles. And, you know, she was talking about

She wanted to try to avoid some of these areas. But the interesting thing about it is there is an actual map system to show where the riots are at any given time in any given moment. And it's not for citizens to be able to avoid the riots. Make no mistake. And let me just play what she says here on her video, because when I first saw this video, I was like, OK, she's probably saying something against the ICE raids. But listen to what she says.

Sorry to be so grouchy today. I just have a lot going on because my son is graduating on Wednesday and work is giving me just like this mountain of paperwork that I can't possibly do that I have to get done by next week. So I just wanted I know that you're saying I need to leave California is just like out of concern for that. I'm going to get hurt or something with the riots. So I decided to bring up this convenient riot map so I can show you how far away I am.

So this is a riot map. I don't know what the fucking website is. LA protest. Oh, scribble. Okay. So here's Beverly Hills. Here's a little rioters. Look at their cute little signs that they got there. Uh, that's Hollywood. Um, here's downtown.

This is, I don't know, Linda Vista. I don't know where that is. But if you keep scrolling and scrolling and scrolling back, like I'm like way over here. I'm not going to tell you exactly where, but like my nearest city is Temecula. So I'm like over here somewhere. So you can see that the riots are nowhere fucking near me. Thank God.

So and then I work somewhere between Temecula and Oceanside. I'm not going to tell you where either, but I work down here. So we are over here and all the riots are over here. So there you go. And the reason why I wanted to play that is because they literally have maps that are just showing where the riots are. And it's not for people to avoid them. It's for people to show up to them. It was like the snow boat thing that was happening this winter, like that crazy, like.

TikTok like phase that went through like, oh, I don't do this. But listen, if you do, this is where it is at. And this is where you can get these boots. Yeah, it's the same kind of thing. But like that is so stupid, though. No, it absolutely is. Now, there was a Blackhawk that landed in downtown Los Angeles. So when Trump was like, hey, we're sending the military, we're going to do whatever we need to do. And I'm going to play that clip of what Trump had to say in just a moment.

But listen to the ABC 7 report from Los Angeles. They were kind of freaking out about the fact that there was a Blackhawk that was landing in downtown Los Angeles. This is some shit you would see in a movie. But listen to what they were offloading. Check this out.

Jory, it's a surreal sight. This Blackhawk moved in just in the last few minutes from the Border Patrol landing at that Homeland Security office on the Paramount side right next to the Home Depot. And they are unloading this huge helicopter with, I mean, just boxes and boxes, dozens of boxes of ammunitions, less lethal weaponry. You see these tanks with flammable labels on the side, one after another, an entire shipment as if they were getting ready for some kind of a major battle. I mean, it's

It really has to be said, this is a remarkable sight in the middle of a suburban street here where they are just unloading all of these weapons, carts full of boxes and flammable weaponry. So you can see that it just made its own parking spot there in the parking lot of that Homeland Security office on the other side of the river where all of this is taking place.

and just a few blocks from that Home Depot and right across the freeway from where that car fire was just a few blocks away, and the protesters and Sheriff's Department had been squaring off. But this site here at the Homeland Security Office of these federal officials unloading dozens of boxes of weapons and ammunition is just quite a sight to behold here, something I really don't recall ever seeing here. Guys, back to you.

There you go. Yeah, there was a Blackhawk that landed with basically ammunition, probably tear gas, flashbangs, you name it. That's what they were bringing to this office, to this federal office. Do you think that is upticking this peaceful protest? No. Or do you think it is just preparing law enforcement? Well, it's definitely preparing. I mean, you have to understand that the city of Los Angeles is,

in no way, shape or form is on board with the Trump or the administration or protecting the citizens of Los Angeles. I don't think the federal government is going into Los Angeles to try to hurt the citizens of Los Angeles. They're trying to protect the,

The citizens of our country in Los Angeles, and they're doing so they have to do so, unfortunately, because the mayor, Karen Bass and Gavin Newsom, they have continually came out and said, yeah, they said, we can handle this ourselves. Get rid of the National Guard.

Quit the standby of the Marines. We can handle this stuff ourselves. What we're going to do is we're not going to do anything and we're going to just let it play out. Yeah. Yeah. Mayor Karen Bass said five hours ago this morning, President Trump deployed the National Guard in Los Angeles. Deploying federalized troops on the hills of these raids is a chaotic escalation. The fear the fear people are feeling in our city right now is very real. It's felt in our communities and within our families, and it puts our neighborhoods at risk.

This is the last thing our city needs. And I urge protesters to remain peaceful. I've been in touch this morning with immigrant rights leaders, as well as local law enforcement officials. Los Angeles will always stand with everyone who calls our city home. So she had one little line there. It says peaceful. But she basically was saying this is all ISIS fault. This is all Trump's fault. You know, ignore everything else. Now, this is what Trump was asked on the tarmac about Marines, because we're going to.

maybe I'm going to check on news in just a moment and see what's going down because it is,

What time is it right now? It's getting later. So it's 8, 18 PM. It's still early there. It still happens at night. That's when it really, yeah, it really pops off. Yeah. But I do want to see, because the last, right before we started recording this episode, we're an hour in now, there were thousands and thousands of protesters, rioters, whatever you want to call them all over the streets. They were battling with LAPD. We had national guard everywhere. It was getting insane, but this is what Trump said on the tarmac when he was asked about the Marines and,

And it's going to be a little hard to hear probably because it is next to an airplane, but just try to listen. It's everywhere. We're not going to let this happen to our country. We're not going to let our country be torn apart like it was under Biden and his auto pen. Think of this. I mean, if we see danger to our country and to our citizens, we'll be very wrong in terms of law and order. It's about

we're going to see what we need we'll send whatever we need to make sure this law and order all right so there you go he said that we are going to send whatever we need to ensure that there is law and order so by the way about an hour ago um this was probably five hours after that interview with trump on the tarmac uh trump came out and said and this was after thousands of protesters were all over now the streets of los angeles they're everywhere it looks like

a bunch of bees. Yeah, it's insane. You can't even see the street. Yeah, so Donald Trump said a once great American city, Los Angeles, has been invaded and occupied by illegal aliens and criminals. Now, violent insurrectionist mobs are swarming and attacking our federal agents to try and stop our deportation operations.

But these lawless riots only strengthen our resolve. I am directing Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, and Attorney General Pam Bondi in coordination with all other relevant departments and agencies to take all such action necessary to liberate Los Angeles from the migrant invasion.

And put an end to these migrant riots. Order will be restored. The illegals will be expelled and Los Angeles will be set free. Thank you for your attention to this matter. So this is about to go down, I think. I mean, this is this is going to be a massive standoff between the federal government and

And a lot of people, I'm not saying all people, but a lot of people that came in illegally that are being pushed by the NGOs to try to upend the city of Los Angeles and our federal government. And I just want to remind people that just because California is left wing or left sided doesn't mean all California is like that. No, we have talked. We have talked to many Californians about.

And they don't like this crap either. And they want it gone. Yeah. Our number one city, by the way, is Los Angeles. And I'm just saying that there's a lot of people out there that don't want this going on in their city and they want their cities cleaned up. They want the homeless gone. They want this migration to stop. They want all the same things that America wants. Yeah. You know, if you want to come to America, come legally. We want you here. We love everyone. Yeah.

but just come legally. Yeah. And actually a lot of the people that are really speaking out against this are Mexican Americans. The ones that are citizens from Mexico that have went through the process to become legal citizens. They have paid their dues. They have done what they needed to do legally to come into the country. And, you know, this is something that they also do not want to see happening for sure. But, you know, I don't, I don't know what's to come, but it's probably going to be very bad. I want to check on something real quick.

Yeah, I just saw this really quick clip of Mayor Karen Bass. This is what she had to say about one minute ago. Listen.

We do not want to play into the administration's hands. We're working with officials. We're organizing resources. But what we're seeing in Los Angeles is chaos that is provoked by the administration. When you raid Home Depot and workplaces, when you tear parents and children apart, and when you run armored caravans through our streets, you cause fear and you cause panic. So there you go. There's Mayor Karen Bass, of course, blaming whatever she can.

uh, on the administration. Now, mayor Karen Bass also went on CNN and she said that there's no need for any of this stuff. Listen, I try to spread them out a bit. Now, obviously they're trying to disperse them. I'm curious if now that the national guard troops are there on the ground, if there is any urgency on the police department's part to really put out an even stronger, uh,

force and a stronger posture to get this under control so you can. And I know your governor said that they don't want that he's formally requested that the National Guard troops go back, that they're not needed. Were those things correlated?

Well, I absolutely agree with the governor in asking that the troops be withdrawn. I don't think that is a way to bring peace in Los Angeles. I think that our law enforcement officers can handle this situation. But I just have to repeat again, it's a feeling here of intentional chaos.

in a situation that had not broken out to violence short of a few people. And there's nothing unusual about that. And our police departments can manage that. But it is as though troops were rolled out in a provocative manner. And I do not see how that is helpful to Los Angeles right now. It's not the type of resources that we need in this. Oh, my God. Are you kidding me?

You said you don't need reinforcements. But when it's happening Friday and Saturday and we're seeing all these ICE cars and law enforcement go down the road and they have football size rocks destroying these cars and you've got it under control. Trump told you, Karen. Karen. Your name is Karen, right? Your name is Karen.

He told you, get it under control or I'm going to have to step in. It's only got worse. And let's just say if he did not bring in the National Guard, what would it be like now? Yeah. Because what they did, this is the strategic move that they made. National Guard stayed and kind of barricaded the federal building where law enforcement met.

blockades to move people back to open up that street to protect it. That's what they did. But they had to have the National Guard in order to do that. Well, you also have to understand that the reason why National Guard had to come in is because the FBI had to come in to protect the ICE agents.

So the ICE agents that were doing their jobs, they were going in, getting these criminals off the streets out of and they were going into these raids a lot. Like we already said, a lot of these violent criminals did go into Los Angeles. There, I think, is like something of 40 percent of the community now are potentially illegals from what we understand that have come across the border in certain factions of Los Angeles and Los Angeles County. We know Los Angeles City is definitely one of them as well.

But we know that for sure. But then you had ICE agents doing their job. You had the FBI that had to come in and protect the ICE agents. Then you had Customs and Border Patrol that had to come in. Then you had National Guard that had to come in and help and assist all these other agencies. Because number one, what you have to understand is that these are a bunch of federal agents doing their job. And you have LAPD, which, you know, unfortunately...

LAPD is a department, but you have to understand who their mayor is, which is Karen Bass. And she does not stand behind her police department. No, she doesn't stand behind law and order. She definitely doesn't stand behind her fire department either. You're exactly right. Yeah, she went on vacation during the wildfires. She was on vacation. And then she came back and blamed it all on Trump and everybody else. They don't even have they didn't even have water and fire hydrants.

A lot of those places in Los Angeles that got burnt to the ground, they still cannot build back. And we talked about that on the Los Angeles Fires episode because what they want to do in Los Angeles is create a Los Angeles 2.0, which is a 15-minute city to where they want to build back better, as Biden kept always saying, instead of the World Economic Forum, instead of George Soros. This is their big thing. Build back better.

Build back after they destroy it is what they mean by that, right? Whether it's wildfires, riots, burning down cities. And sure, you did ask earlier, what would be the case if the National Guard or maybe military in this case, because that could happen now, right? What would happen if, um, if the National Guard or ICE or not even ICE, but FBI didn't come in? Well,

you would probably be the same thing, but it would be worse. No, it would be Kenosha, Wisconsin. It would be, it would be buildings burning down. It would be people that have worked their entire lives for their businesses. It would probably be on fire. And that's still a possibility, by the way, just because you have national guard there, just because you have ice and everybody else is still a possibility that buildings may burn tonight or tomorrow, but they're going

to prevent that. And I think when I'm saying it would be the same thing, I'm saying the same rioters, the same protesters would be out there. Yeah, for sure. And LAPD cannot do that alone. No, absolutely not. I want to check on something real quick. I just want to see what's going on on the news real quick before we end this.

All right, we're going to tune in to CNN just for a second to see what they're saying. I mean, we got it. We got to see what they're saying anyway. It is, let's see, 830 p.m. Eastern Standard Time here on the east coast of the United States. So let's see what CNN is saying right now real quick.

It is Ryan Seacrest here. There was a recent social media trend which consisted of flying on a plane with no music, no movies, no entertainment. But a better trend would be going to ChumbaCasino.com.

We were here 24 hours ago. Does it seem better or worse now? That's not a rhetorical question. It's obviously worse. And what has happened in that 24 hours is you have the escalation, I'll use the language of the mayor, which I thought was right, provocative or provoking this kind of sort of, you know, everyone, this sort of performative aspect by the deployment of the National Guard.

which then, of course, increases people's fears or anger, gets people out who want to make noise, who know that the cameras are there. The deployment has been a contributing factor to the unrest at this stage. And any rational White House that wanted to protect all citizens would be focused on de-escalation at this stage, not escalation. So a statement like we're about to deploy 500 actuators

And I want to point out something real quick as they're showing this and they're saying, oh, it's gotten much worse since the National Guard came in all because of Trump is showing pictures of police cars burning in the streets. There are thousands of people surrounding police cars and burning them in the streets. And they're saying this is all Trump's fault. It's all National Guard. We could have handled this. This is CNN. Of course, this is mainstream media. This is what they do.

military members is not only escalation, what does it mean? Just one final quick point. That to me, there's lots of things that are worrisome. That to me was probably the most worrisome aspect of what Mayor Bass said, which is she doesn't know how

How does the mayor of the city not know how a military force is going to be used, how long they're going to be there? What's their interaction with the police? What are their rules of engagement? What about friendly fire? What about chaos? Everyone's talking about the L.A. riots.

Well, for someone who knows this world really well, most people in my field think the deployment of the military at the LA riots was chaotic. And the Republican governor at the time, Pete Wilson, said he regretted it because there was no organization, no rules of engagement.

And she's saying here that like, yeah, what would have happened? We could have handled it, guys. I mean, this just making everything worse. No, Trump knows and the administration knows that if they would not have done anything, Los Angeles would have burned tonight completely to the ground, probably. And that would have been the way it would have been.

the way it went all because ice was doing their job. They were going in to get criminals. And yet they're trying to portray it like, because the national guard came in because ice came in, because all this stuff happened. This is why this is happening. That is not why this is happening. If it wouldn't have been for national guard, which we'd still don't know what's going to happen tonight. I mean, as we go forward with the night, it's only eight 33 PM here on the East coast. So what is that time wise for them? Five,

on the West Coast right now. And guys, by the way, for our Los Angeles listeners, most people don't realize actually that our number one city in the entire world is Los Angeles. Yes. Which is nuts. There's a ton of people that have lost

like minds as us. Yeah. There's a lot of people in Los Angeles that they look at what's happening to their city. Many of you probably have, they're listening right now. Many of you have grown up in Los Angeles. Many of you love your, your city. You love your state. Uh, just like many of us love our country. Just like you guys love your country.

And, you know, when you see something going wrong and going bad about it, that's probably why you found us. When you when you look up corruption, you look up stuff like that. Like you don't want your city to be like this. You want your city to be better. You're probably hoping and praying every single day that somehow your city becomes better. And it may take something like this to make your city better. And it may take something like this to make all of the cities better because there needs

And I agree with the guy, the video we played earlier. There has to be a statement with this. This time there has to be a statement in order. Yes. And listen, there's people out there that are saying, well, this is overreach of the government. This is overreach of the government. Let me explain something, guys, that are out there saying that we're like bootlickers or whatever.

I, there's one thing that I don't think that anybody can call us on this podcast is bootlickers or people that are just sucking up to law enforcement and government. Literally our entire podcast talks shit more about,

government and power and political stuff than anything. And that is on both sides. It's not Republican. It's not just, it's not just Democrat. I mean, it's not just Republican. It's on all sides. This podcast, we talk about corruption. We talk about government overreach. We've literally had many episodes on government overreach in particular bureaucracy, all of this stuff. And although, listen, I understand that there is a fine line when you have federal agents that go into a city and

And what the left is saying or mainstream media is saying, kidnapping people. Well, then you must say, I guess at that point, at least from everything I've seen, that if someone goes and murder someone or someone, no, no, or, or someone that like hits and kills someone and they leave the scene of an accident or, you know, whatever. And then the police go arrest them. Then I guess you're saying that the police are kidnapping them also. But,

Because what ICE is doing is kidnapping people, a.k.a. criminals, that they have to deport and try. I mean, that's the reason a lot why law enforcement exists. They exist to protect the citizens of the United States. That is the federal government's number one job and priority is to protect the citizens of

the United States of America. And when ICE comes in and raids places to go out and get criminals that have crossed our border illegally, many of these are gang members, sex traffickers, drug traffickers, you name it. That is what they are doing. They are doing their job, which is what the government was set up to do, is to protect us. And yet you're rioting against the government that is here to protect the citizens of America. It's because most of the citizens of America are not the ones writing right now.

Well, if they were, they would have American flags and not Mexican flags and Honduras flags and Venezuelan flags. No, but look, if you have an American flag, you are racist. You are a white supremacist. You are, uh,

I think they call it. Call you. What else they call you? Yeah. If you fly an American flag outside of your house nowadays, they consider you a racist or they consider you some other craziness. That is how far this. I know this is weird. We live in America. If you're in America, you should uphold the most law.

like dignity to the country you live in. Yeah. Your loyalty is to America. Number one. Yeah. And, and, and as the federal government, your loyalty is to the American citizens. Number one in the story, but I want to hear a little more of what CNN saying before we get off.

And it ended up being actually more chaotic. Yeah. Also, too, we're just watching these what appear to be self-driving cars set on fire and people what appear to be taking selfies in front of them. Yeah. Not sure how that's protesting, but it's not. It's not. But that's why we have police departments. I mean, in other words, there is unlawful protest. There's criminal protest. But it appears this man's setting it on fire. Yeah. Actively. Sorry to interrupt you. Yeah.

Yeah, no, he absolutely should be arrested. And that's the weird thing. The idea. She's like, no, no, no. It's just protest. No, she's like, no, it's like he's setting on fire. But that's the weird thing. That's the only the only car right now on fire. No, no, no. Let's just wait for two hours. No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

The video is showing right now an entire line of cars being set on fire. Oh, I didn't see the video. Yeah, it's not just one car. There's like 12 of them in the line. And they're saying it's just these self-driving cars. No, there are also police cars being set on fire right now. But it was so funny. She's like, no, you know, it's just protests. And she's like, well, it kind of does look like, I mean, literally a helicopter is over...

the cars and the guy has a torch with gasoline setting the car on fire and she's like well it kind of looks like he's setting it on fire he's like well yeah I mean if she's setting it on fire then I guess you know whatever does he have a flag in his hand or anything no but he's just all dressed in black black hoodie black everything could he be Antifa all of them are wearing black though

That's the thing. They're all wearing black. Many of them are. They all cover their face. They all are doing the same thing. It's because they don't want to be prosecuted. That's what they want. And so now they're getting in these zones and kind of how some of these groups work.

They'll set perimeters. So they'll have lines of protesters on this side and this side. They'll have the police kind of facing off against these people. Right. Facing off against these people. Police are in the middle. And then everybody... No, no. No, not the police in the middle. No, the people, the rioters, the people that are burning shit down to the ground. These people are going to be in the middle that are protected by the line of protesters that are facing off against the police. This is how they do shit. And so they...

All of the violent people kind of go towards the center to where they're protected by the lines on the outside. Well, it looked like to me earlier that they were pushing everyone off the street. I know. But what I'm I understand that. But what I'm saying is when you see stuff being thrown at police, it's not being thrown right at the front lines. It's being thrown from in the interior of the line. And that is how the protesters protect those people.

they have a very coordinated system of how they do this. This is not just some nilly willy. Hey, we're going to go and protest, right? They have a very coordinated system and a plan of how they're going to protect the people that are there to do the violence, how they're going to protect certain areas, or they're going to even move police away from certain areas to where maybe these protesters, rioters can set buildings on fire. Because if these certain buildings are within that corridor between this side of the police line and the other side of the police line, then these rioters will set cars,

Police cars on fire. They burn buildings down. This is how they do it. And it's a very coordinated thing. This is not just coincidental. This is not accidental. This is not like, hey, we just happen to have a line here and happen to have a line here. What the protesters are actually doing is smarter than what the police are doing. And I hate to say that.

But they are, but there is, it almost, the way it wants you to. It is Ryan Seacrest here. There was a recent social media trend which consisted of flying on a plane with no music, no movies, no entertainment. But a better trend would be going to ChumbaCasino.com. It's like having a mini social casino in your pocket.

look at it is the police are holding the protesters back from something. But what's actually going on is the protesters are holding the police back from something. That's crazy. And you said this is how we do it. Yeah, that's that. This is exactly how I remind you of a song. This is how we do it. All right. Let's listen to a little more of the CNN thing, because I mean, these guys are burning this stuff down the ground right now.

People who oppose the deployment of the military are somehow pro-crime or violence. There's a middle lane where I think most Americans are. And I think that's what's important is that we have police departments. We have state police departments. We have national guards that are not federalized for this.

for unlawful behavior. So if we have a White House that thinks any time there's a crime or crimes even, that that justifies the federalization of the National Guard, we've entered a brand new era in this country. No former president has ever viewed the deployment against the wishes of the mayor and governor as possible.

um, as, as a tool, uh, for law enforcement, uh, in LA riots in, uh, hurricane Katrina, both the governors and the mayors asked for support because they knew they were overwhelmed. That's it. That's the difference. Yeah. Asking for it. Yeah. All right, Juliette, standby. Thank you so much. Um, we're going to keep talking with you. So there you go. Um,

we have massive riots in the streets of Los Angeles. Uh, just also saw another report that anti ice protesters are, uh, now, uh,

Going nudity on the streets with some of them holding signs that say, I am God. Oh my God. Now they're all nude in the streets now also. Are you kidding me? No. Anti-ice protesters and activists flood the streets of downtown Los Angeles, bringing the city to a standstill. Intentions erupt in chaos, clash with National Guard, and they are holding signs. They are stripping down naked and are running through the streets, holding signs that read, I am God, chanting against ice and what they call a corrupt and broken immigration system.

system. There are multiple cars burning, police cars completely burning to the ground. Likely, a lot of people are saying they're desperately trying to protect the buildings right now because people are starting to break windows. And could you imagine if the National Guard was not there? And I think they should call in the Marines. Well, I guarantee you if this stuff gets worse, Trump will likely call in Marines from Camp Pendleton.

You know, you can say whatever you want to say about the I guess about the militarization or the military on U.S. soil. I understand like there is a fine line between some of that stuff for sure. Yeah, but we're fighting against almost domestic terrorists at this point. Yeah, we're not really fighting against domestic terrorists at this point. We're fighting against foreign terrorists. This is something that we're going to see to probably continue unfold soon.

You guys, if this stuff breaks off even bigger, then we're going to for sure cover that. We have a lot to talk about. There has been so much news go on over the past like four or five days. It has been insane. I mean, we're talking about the Trump and Elon feud. We talked about it a little bit with Ashton Forbes on the last episode we had.

But we want to break that down in more detail because there's a lot of stuff to that, even including Elon Musk. Black Eye will talk about that. Also, there is a new bombshell report about UFOs that we want to cover also over the next couple of days. We're going to be busy for the next couple of days. And then we also have to monitor what is going on in Los Angeles. And I don't think that it's going to stop with Los Angeles.

I think... Oh, I think it's going to go... I think it's going to nationwide. Yeah. Especially in the big cities, New York, Chicago, probably Minneapolis, some of these bigger cities. But we're going to see what happens with all that. But until then, we're going to end it here. We're going to go watch the news.

Not CNN. We're going to watch all of them because we like to watch all approaches of this. But we're going to watch everything. We will continue to cover this. Let us know what your thoughts are on the riots in the streets. Do you think this is all coordinated? Do you think these are just people that are really just concerned about their fellow citizens or non-citizens against ICE? Do you think this is a government overreach? Tell us what you think. You can email us at investigateearthpodcast at protonmail.com.

We also have all of the social media platforms, Facebook, Instagram. We've been posting a lot on Facebook and Instagram. We actually have quite a few videos that are getting pretty big numbers on Instagram for some reason. They're allowing us to post stuff now. Maybe Mark Zuckerberg is doing something about Instagram for once and we're freedom of speech again. Who knows? But it's mostly X and Facebook and Instagram is where we post.

It's literally what's happening right now in Los Angeles. But guys, until next time, we love you very much. Peace out. Yeah. And peace to Los Angeles.
