Op-Ed: What’s behind the anti-ICE riots and how they’re backfiring big-time

The best way to fully understand the anti-ICE riots in Los Angeles and elsewhere is to:

  1. educate yourself apart from the liberal, lapdog Democrat media
  2. think this through logically

Let’s start by realizing that The Biden Doctrine, and almost the entire raison d’etre for his misbegotten presidency, was to open the border to recolonize America with Democrat voters.

It really is that simple.

Biden’s conscious decision – no, wait; the doddering figurehead’s overseers’ conscious decision – was to fling the borders open and then claim nothing could be done about it short of an act of Congress. Yet, within mere weeks, President Trump managed to turn the border spigot off almost completely, putting the lie to Biden’s duplicitous claim of impotence.

But Biden and Co. did much more than just let untold millions of unvetted people in. They actively trafficked them over the border, often in nice airplanes, then trafficked them about the country, often in the dead of night so as not to attract attention. They housed them in luxury hotels and in federally commandeered facilities where neither the public nor the media were allowed.

Why all the cloak-and-dagger – if this was a humanitarian mission?

The answer – again, logically – is that it wasn’t humanitarian motivations at all that flew our border dangerously open to terrorists and ne’er-do-wells. Not when people died and were raped along the way from Central and South America. And not when so many Americans have paid the ultimate price of illegal immigration, such as Kate Steinle and Laken Riley.

Anyone acting out of mere misguided benevolence would’ve secured the border long ago.

 

The goal of open borders

It’s also revealing that Biden’s serial prevaricating Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, rather than making the philanthropic case for the reckless policy, repeatedly lied through his teeth – claiming in baldfaced “what woman? what bed?” fashion that the border was secure.

No, the goal, predictably to many of us but clearly seen by all now in the rear-view mirror, was to eliminate swing states, eradicate dissension (thus, the vast Biden censorship regime against conservatives, as exposed by the Twitter Files and the Missouri v. Biden lawsuit) and ensure uncontested Democrat rule for generations.

Was Biden’s presidency always intended to be the fulfillment of Obama’s pledge of “fundamentally transforming the United States of America”?

Certainly Biden’s weaponization of nearly every federal agency against conservatives, political opponents and other free-thinkers – uncovered in excruciating detail in a 17,000-page House report – is indicative of more sinister motives than flying in housekeepers.

Indeed, the Democrats’ ultimate goal from all those machinations? To create a permanent one-party state.

One-party states, of course, do not generally brook dissent, and are mostly associated with communist and fascist forms of government.

And that’s where the Democrat Party wanted – and appears to still want – to take America.

So, when the Trump administration moved to aggressively enforce existing law and remove primarily the most hideously dangerous fraction of the millions lured here under Biden, does one really suppose Democrats would merely throw in the towel? Shake Trump’s hand, accept defeat and come back in four years?

Um, no.

 

Riots neither organic nor spontaneous

We may never know who’s funding and coordinating the anti-ICE riots. But there is no argument they are, in fact, well-funded and coordinated. In short, it’s plainly obvious they are neither spontaneous nor organic.

“Rioters are being given earplugs, gas masks, and water bottles to throw at police, per @BillMelugin_,” independent journalist Nick Sortor writes on X. “FOX LA also reporting TRUCKLOADS of bionic shields, which cost $60+ each, are being delivered to rioters.

“There is NOTHING organic about this. WHO IS FUNDING IT?”

Someone powerful is orchestrating these riots – most likely in furtherance of the Democrat Party’s laid-bare dreams of naked power and absolute political control. That our enemies in Tehran, Moscow, Beijing and elsewhere can throw in with the “protestors” and further erode American cohesiveness is simply a bonus for the malefactors. They’d be crazier than they already are to pass up on the opportunity Biden has presented them.

You’d have to suspend reality and disbelieve your senses to believe otherwise.

And that’s exactly what the left and their bankrollers are banking on.

The thing is, they may be selling Americans short.

 

“We’re done. It’s over”

“I have to admit these protests have truly changed my mind about the Trump Administration and ICE,” activist Matt Van Swol opines on X. “I find myself wanting 100000x more deportations than I did yesterday.”

But a video on the X account “Warren Redlich – Chasing Dreams” sums it up nicely for many Americans who’ve had their eyes opened by the foreign-flavored anti-ICE mayhem. He says that, as a libertarian, he was a longtime supporter of open borders – but that high-profile Democrats and the riots have convinced him otherwise.

“I didn’t realize the extent of the depravity of the radical left and whoever the hell else these idiots are,” he says in the video, “ that somebody would consciously try to invade the country in the way that they have. …

“I was starting to come around to this a little bit, but the events we’re seeing in Los Angeles right now – it could never be more clear. You have people waving foreign flags, attacking America. They’re attacking American government officials, they’re attacking Waymo cars, they’re starting fires. …

“I think they persuaded me that I no longer support open borders. And I’d like to thank the Democrats for showing me that, No. 1, it does make sense to have real borders, and No. 2, I will never vote for any Democrat ever again. 

“You have persuaded me that you cannot be trusted to run anything – not even dog catcher. You’re out. All of you are out.  

“It’s insane the extent to which Democrats are gaslighting this. …

“And now the Democrats are gaslighting and saying that everything was under control – no, it wasn’t – the protests are peaceful – no, they’re not – and Trump is causing an escalation. It’s like, no, you caused the escalation because you refused to allow federal agents to enforce federal law. You refused to protect federal agents who were trying to enforce federal law …

“We’re done. It’s over. Thank you for persuading me. Thanks to Elon for being the threat to Idiocracy that he is and helping me see the light – that you idiots should not be trusted to run anything, and you are not only idiots, but you’re evil.”

If the left’s indiscriminate destructiveness, lawlessness and anti-American pageantry are meant to garner sympathy for a cynical and anarchic strategy to obtain unbridled power for one party, that man speaks for many.

We’re done with you.
