VIDEO: 45 Arrested During L.A. ICE Raids as Anti-Police Leftists Violently Protest
Breitbart ^ | June 7, 2025 | Amy Furr

Posted on 06/07/2025 2:11:35 PM PDT by Morgana

Over 40 people were arrested during immigration raids and search warrant executions on Friday in downtown Los Angeles, California, amid standoffs with leftist protesters and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents.

Federal agents served four search warrants and nearly two dozen people were detained outside a Home Depot near MacArthur Park, NBC Los Angeles reported on Friday. The agents also went to two office locations of Ambience Apparel in the downtown area.

In addition, Yasmeen Pitts O’Keefe of the Homeland Security Investigations said 44 individuals were “administratively” arrested and another person was arrested for obstruction.

“U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli confirmed to NBC Los Angeles Friday that the search warrants were served at the businesses Friday because ‘there’s probable cause that they are using fictitious documents to employ people,'” the outlet said.

Some Los Angeles officials and immigrant advocates were enraged and held protests in response to the law enforcement operations.

“Following one of the rallies, hundreds of demonstrators marched along the streets of downtown LA. There was at least one incident of vandalism as a protester sprayed graffiti on the federal building,” the NBC article said.

In a social media post on Saturday, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) shared video footage of the violent protests and rioting when people spray painted anti-police and ICE sentiments on cars, signs, and buildings.

“The violent targeting of law enforcement in Los Angeles by lawless protestors is despicable. These men and women work every day, putting their lives on the line, to protect and defend the lives of American citizens. Mayor Bass, ICE is not responsible for ‘sowing a sense of terror’ the protestors YOU enabled are,” the agency wrote:

I probably missed the news, but what has happened to the arrested female judge who let the illegal out of her back door to avoid ICE?

What is “”Administratively” Arrested”?

Anything like “Double Secret Probation”?

The dems are probably stoking people to violence so the police will react and then they will use the footage demanding President Trump be impeached.

They want their Kent State moment since J6 is a bust.

Case is ongoing in the justice system. No completion. At least the judge was suspended.

Summary:
Judge Dugan is accused of helping an undocumented immigrant, Eduardo Flores-Ruiz, evade immigration officials who were waiting to arrest him at the courthouse on April 18, 2025, when Flores-Ruiz was in her courtroom.

Upon learning that federal agents from ICE, FBI, and DEA* were present to arrest him, Judge Dugan allegedly directed Flores-Ruiz and his attorney to leave through a non-public “jury door”.

Flores-Ruiz was captured outside the courthouse after a brief foot chase.

Judge Dugan was arrested by the FBI on April 25, 2025.
She is charged with obstruction and concealing an individual to prevent discovery and arrest.
A federal grand jury has approved the two charges against her, which could lead to a prison term.
Dugan has pleaded not guilty.
Her defense lawyers argue that she is protected by judicial immunity and was acting in her official capacity.
The Wisconsin Supreme Court has suspended Judge Dugan while the case proceeds.

* Story that the Neighborhood Watch and his HOA (Homeowner’s Association) were also ready to grab him was disproven. 😁

But most were grossly fat, ugly, screeching and out of control.

That’s no way to go through life.

I hope some of the “protestors” are charged with Federal crimes, due time in Federal prisons, and each one has a cell mate named Bubba.

Not quite;

Google AI:

"Administratively arrested" refers to a process where individuals are detained by authorities, often without formal charges or a trial, based on administrative or security concerns rather than criminal charges. This differs from a criminal arrest, which requires probable cause and charges based on a specific law violation.

I recognized Ron Gochez in that foreign occupation riot agitating the rioters.
“We are not violent, but we are not non-violent,” said activist Ron Gochez as he led the protest against ICE raids in Los Angeles https://www.reddit.com/r/50501/comments/1l5c64p/we_are_not_violent_but_we_are_not_nonviolent_said/

I will do everything within my power.Legal or not. We have a history of that. And we will continue with the legacy of Struggle. So with that, the last thing I’ll say is.As you know, there’s over 200 people right now detained in a dungeon that you all know that and it’s a dungeon down there. It’s not. It’s literally the basement. We receive calls that people are down there in the basement. They have no bathrooms, they haven’t showered in days. They have they don’t have enough food or water and there’s children.Besides, people, even with their their own legal framework, that’s a human rights violation. So we say we got to liberate those people. We got to fight for the people. So they’re being held right around this corner. So in a few moments we’re all going to move this.we’re going to go down there so the people can hear us and see us and know that they are not alone

From many years ago
Rally at UCLA in Defense of La Raza by Ron Gochez

“A revolutionary Mexican Organization”…” This is not just about Mexico, this is about a global struggle against imperialism and capitalism. But we know that where we now stand is stolen occupied Mexico. And the message that we bring if you want to bring a little bit more of a revolutionary context to this, why is it that these people? These frail racist white people want to keep us out of this country. It’s not simply because of the color of our skin, it’s not simply because they just want to exploit us, let me tell you why. Because on this planet right now, 6 billion people at the forefront of the revolutionary movement is La Raza.”…

…”We have a long history and example of our comandante Fidel Castro Ruiz, Caesar Hugo Chaves, Eduardo Morales, we got Brazil, Equator, you name it, we are nine, nine ??? governments in Latin America right now, and they know something that a one young Argentine cockroach said, it was called a domino theory, and he knew that every single country would go revolutionary. One after the other, after the other, after the other, after the other.”

“So what do they fear? They know that every single country, they know that we no longer will fall for these lies called borders, they know that a Salvadorian, that a Guatemalan and a Nicaraguan and a Mexicano, there is no damn difference, we are all one people. So with that in mind, we see our selves, all of us here, as the Northern front of a Latin American revolutionary movement. There are more than 40 million of our people north of the Rio Grande. That means to them there is 40 million revolutionaries north of the border inside the belly of the beast. So when you think about why do they want to kick us of all people out, that’s why”.

“They know that we now know the truth. They know that we are La Raza, we’re professionals, we are educators, we are revolutionary students, what does that mean? We are just a regular culture anymore, we are a culture of revolutionary spirit. And that’s the fear.”

“So with that being said, I want to leave you with this, as a revolutionary and with revolutionary context, let us be clear about one thing, our enemy is not the minutemen, quote me, our enemy is not the minutemen, because the minutemen are not the ones who have killed over four thousand, six hundred people at those borders, our enemy is the same enemy as Hugo Chaves, that Hugo Chaves has, our enemy is the same enemy that keeps Africa poor, our enemy is the same enemy that keeps Asia poor, Our enemy is capitalism, imperialism.”

“And I’ll finish with this, I’ll finish with this to respect the time. If we are serious about making CHANGE, if you are serious about making CHANGE, let me tell you, the struggle will go on for many more years after we leave UCLA. Reading a book or writing a book, or teaching a class, that is not, that is not part of the movement. What you do 24 hours a day as a professional revolutionary, that is what is going to lead our people and our people to liberation. Viva La Raza.”
