Washington, D.C. [US], June 9 (ANI): Vice President JD Vance echoed President Donald J. Trump’s message on Sunday, stating, “This moment calls for decisive leadership. The president will not tolerate rioting and violence,” in a post amplifying Trump’s remarks amid escalating unrest in Los Angeles.
President Trump has called for immediate federal intervention in Los Angeles, alleging the city has been “invaded and occupied by illegal aliens and criminals” and is currently experiencing violent disturbances.
In a statement posted on X (formerly Twitter), Trump claimed that “violent, insurrectionist mobs are swarming and attacking our federal agents to try and stop our deportation operations,” adding that such “lawless riots only strengthen our resolve.”
Trump has directed Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, and Attorney General Pam Bondi to coordinate with all relevant federal 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.”
He further asserted, “Order will be restored, the illegals will be expelled, and Los Angeles will be set free,” while urging the public to pay close attention to the unfolding situation.
The protests began after U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents conducted raids throughout Los Angeles, leading to the arrest of dozens of undocumented immigrants. In response, Trump deployed 2,000 National Guard troops to help restore order.
“A once great American city, Los Angeles, has been invaded and occupied by illegal aliens and criminals,” Trump wrote on his Truth Social account. “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,” he continued.
“Order will be restored, the illegals will be expelled, and Los Angeles will be set free. Thank you for your attention to this matter!” the President concluded.
