What The Violence In Los Angeles Is ReallyAbout
We’ve all seen the images coming out of Los Angelesrecently as violent agitators try to shut down efforts to deport illegalaliens, many of whom have engaged in rape, robbery, human trafficking, drugsmuggling and other felonies since entering the United States. The Democratapologists for this violence keep telling you to ignore your own eyes andsomehow believe there is no violence or that the riots are mostly peaceful.They’re not, and Democrats are digging a deeper hole for themselves by sidingwith the rioters. Over 80% of the American people support the crackdown onillegal immigration even if some of them would not go quite as far as PresidentTrump in terms of calling in the National Guard and the United States Marinesto protect federal property and federal law enforcement efforts. The politicalparties will argue about the riots and the response from now to the mid-termelections. Apart from finger-pointing, a deeper question is who is behind theriots and how are they being financed? Some of the money is coming from aWalmart heiress. That makes sense because Walmart is a primary beneficiary ofthe cheap labor from illegal aliens and the cheap goods coming from Chinabefore Trump’s tariffs. Another source of support may be coming from PresidentClaudia Sheinbaum of Mexico. Buried in Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill is aprovision that would impose a 5% withholding tax on remittances to Mexico from the United States. When immigrants from Mexico get a job in the U.S., they typically send some money home to support their extended families. Individual amounts may be small but total remittances are over $64.7 billion per year and are 3.5% of Mexico’s GDP – even greater than its oil exports or net trade surplus with the U.S. Mexico taxes the remittances at 16% and the cartels take a skim in addition to transfer fees, etc., so remittances are a huge part of the Mexican economy. President Sheinbaun has called for “mobilization” against this move by the U.S. She did not specifically condone violence, but is it possible that some of the riots in LA are part of the mobilization she called for? The sight of outlaws waving Mexican flags against a background of burning cars certainly suggests the possibility.
