"As Gov. Gavin Newsom prepared to announce that he would take on President Trump’s redistricting plans on behalf of California, scores of federal immigration agents massed outside the venue Thursday.
Newsom was set to speak at the Japanese American National Museum in downtown Los Angeles, when Border Patrol Sector Chief Gregory Bovino, who has been leading the immigration operations in California, arrived in Little Tokyo, flanked by agents in helmets, camouflage, masks and holding guns.
'We’re here making Los Angeles a safer place since we won’t have politicians that’ll do that, we do that ourselves,' Bovino told a Fox 11 reporter in Little Tokyo. 'We’re glad to be here, we’re not going anywhere.' [snip]
The apparent raid Thursday, during which one person was detained, comes amid calls from elected officials for an end to renewed immigration operations across the L.A. area. Federal agents have carried out a string of raids over the past week, arresting several people at car washes and Home Depot stores.
Immigrant advocates and city leaders had hoped such sweeps had stopped with a federal judge’s July order, affirmed by a U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals panel on Aug. 1. The courts ruled that immigration officials cannot racially profile people or use roving patrols to target immigrants." (our emphasis)
The thugs showed up fully masked and armed at Newsom's event, obviously trying to intimidate the attendees and the press covering it. Moreover, as head thug Bovino indicated, they're taking it upon themselves to determine where "enforcement" is needed, i.e. at Dem political events.
This show of illegitimate force is part of the Malignant Fascist's power grab and deflection from his failing economy and his obvious role in the Trump-Epstein scandal.

🤬 As always, thank you for providing a link to the full article. It got worse! And that strutting martinet, Chief Bovino, was saying words that didn't make sense to me. Fortunately, I was able to locate my Bovino-to-English dictionary: "This is NOT political. We are simply doing our job protecting the country because...[wait for it]...the POLITICIANS won't!!" Well thanks for clearing that up, Chief. I feel safer already that an unelected lawman has stepped up to determine policy!! The Chief, according to my interpretive dictionary, arrested an Asian-looking man making his regular delivery of fresh strawberries "because if we don't arrest someone who looks Asian, people might think we were in the area under a pretense of law enforcement!" 💩 Good job, Chief! I have had many sleepless nights worrying about Asian deliverymen stealing my security!! 🤡🤬
