Democrat Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass lashed out Thursday criticizing the timing of Border Patrol’s arrest of an illegal immigrant outside Democrat California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s press conference.
U.S. Border Patrol agents conducted a raid Thursday afternoon in Los Angeles, directly outside where Newsom had been speaking at the Japanese American National Museum about the state’s special election to redistrict California. Surrounded by reporters, Bass was asked by an NBC4 Los Angeles journalist if she believed the arrest was a “coincidence.”
“There is no way this was a coincidence!” Bass yelled. “This was widely publicized that the governor and many of our other elected officials were having a press conference here to talk about redistricting, and they decided they were going to come and thumb their nose in front of the governor’s face. Why would you do that? That is unbelievably disrespectful.”
“It’s a provocative act. They’re talking about disorder in Los Angeles, and they are the source of the disorder in Los Angeles right now. This is just completely unacceptable,” Bass added. “This is an administration, this is a Customs and Border Patrol that has gone amok! This absolutely has to stop. There was no danger here. There was no need to detain anyone here, and there was certainly no need to have a provocative act right here where the governor is having a press conference.”
