Federal authorities descended on a park where children were playing in California on Monday to conduct enforcement operations.

Dozens of federal agents in tactical gear, heavily armed and dressed in military-style uniforms, staged what seemed to be an immigration enforcement action, drawing swift condemnation from Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass, who rushed to the scene in response.

    Border Patrol El Centro sector chief Gregory Bovino told Fox News: “I don’t work for Karen Bass. Better get used to us now, 'cause this is going to be normal very soon. We will go anywhere, anytime we want.”

    Yup, need everyone real comfortable with the armed masked men in the streets.

      They want to make suicide bombers out of citizens like they do when they fuck with other countries.

      Memes, editorials and opinions are slowly going to become a waste of time as this gets more real.

      The coup is happening. People are still pretending it’s just politics.

      Bovino sounds like an ethnic name. He better be careful. It’s not safe for people out there with his background.
