Leavitt goes scorched earth.
Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt unloaded on California Democrats Governor Gavin Newsom and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass on Wednesday for their “shameful” response to the LA ICE riots.
“What we have seen transpire in Los Angeles, California in recent days is shameful,” Leavitt said. “Left-wing radicals waving foreign flags viciously attacked ICE agents… These attacks were aimed not just at law enforcement, but at American culture and society itself… President Trump will never allow mob rule to prevail in America.”
“The most basic duty of government is to preserve law and order, and this administration embraces that sacred responsibility. Democrats like Governor Gavin Newsom and Mayor Karen Bass failed to meet their sworn obligation to their citizens,” Leavitt said.
“That’s why President Donald Trump deployed the National Guard and mobilized Marines to end the chaos and restore law and order,” Leavitt continued, confirming that ICE’s efforts will continue.
Leavitt also highlighted some of the dangerous illegal migrants removed from the Los Angeles streets during the recent ICE raids, including murderers, child molesters, domestic abusers, and more.
“Sanctuary cities and states will no longer be allowed to shield illegal criminals from deportation,” Leavitt said. “Just take a look at some of the illegal monsters who were taken off the streets in recent days.”
