<p>Former Vice President Kamala Harris declared on Sunday that she is supporting the anti-ICE protests in and around Los Angeles, claiming the demonstrations have been &#8220;overwhelmingly peaceful&#8221; despite violent clashes with federal authorities.</p>
<p>Harris, who has a <a href="https://www.townandcountrymag.com/leisure/real-estate/a33825054/kamala-harris-homes-real-estate-photos/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">home</a> in Los Angeles and has been <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2025/06/01/kamala-harris-california-governor-race/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">mulling</a> a run for California governor, said in a <a href="https://x.com/KamalaHarris/status/1931856677881667634" target="_blank" rel="noopener">statement</a> that she is &#8220;appalled at what we are witnessing on the streets of our city.&#8221; But instead of focusing on how troublemakers <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/cory-booker-spins-la-riots-as-peaceful-while-feds-dodge-concrete-blocks" target="_blank" rel="noopener">hurled</a> rocks, concrete, and fireworks at federal officers and their vehicles, Harris took the opportunity to criticize her 2024 election opponent, President Donald Trump.</p>
<p>&#8220;Deploying the National Guard is a dangerous escalation meant to provoke chaos. In addition to the recent ICE raids in Southern California and across our nation, it is part of the Trump Administration&#8217;s cruel, calculated agenda to spread panic and division,&#8221; Harris said. &#8220;This Administration&#8217;s actions are not about public safety — they&#8217;re about stoking fear. Fear of a community demanding dignity and due process.&#8221;</p>
<p>Harris extolled protesting as &#8220;a powerful tool — essential in the fight for justice&#8221; without acknowledging the rioting that prompted Trump to deploy the National Guard.</p>
<p>&#8220;And as the LAPD, Mayor, and Governor have noted, demonstrations in defense of our immigrant neighbors have been overwhelmingly peaceful,&#8221; Harris said. &#8220;I continue to support the millions of Americans who are standing up to protect our most fundamental rights and freedoms.&#8221;</p>
<p>Governor Gavin Newsom and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass have vociferously opposed Trump&#8217;s <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/06/department-of-defense-security-for-the-protection-of-department-of-homeland-security-functions/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">deployment</a> of the National Guard and touted peaceful demonstrations. These Democrats also faced blowback from Trump and others for failing to stop the unrest.</p>
<p>However, Newsom and Bass took time to relay <a href="https://x.com/CAgovernor/status/1931825945146703982" target="_blank" rel="noopener">messages</a> discouraging <a href="https://x.com/MayorOfLA/status/1931825605101920676" target="_blank" rel="noopener">acts</a> of violence, destruction, and vandalism. Harris did no such thing and received criticism for it.</p>
<p>&#8220;No surprise that the most incompetent Vice President in history stands with the illegal alien rioters,&#8221; Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) <a href="https://x.com/TomCottonAR/status/1931860564839395709" target="_blank" rel="noopener">quipped</a> in a post on X.</p>
<p>&#8220;We all know you support lawless, violent, illegal alien rioters. That’s why you lost so badly in November. Back to irrelevancy you go!&#8221; <a href="https://x.com/ATJackson47/status/1931866516229959699" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> White House Deputy Press Secretary Abigail Jackson.</p>
<p>Fox News contributor Joe Concha <a href="https://x.com/JoeConchaTV/status/1931860240028270775" target="_blank" rel="noopener">observed</a>, &#8220;This statement tells us 2024 Kamala wasn’t real and she was always 2019 Kamala all along on illegal immigration.&#8221;</p>
<p>Police have said several people have already been <a href="https://abc7.com/live-updates/tensions-flare-downtown-la-anti-ice-protesters-clash-agents-live-updates/16692645/entry/16696993/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">arrested</a> in the protests that erupted as federal agents began to <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/gang-members-sex-offenders-and-more-heres-who-ice-actually-picked-up-during-la-raids" target="_blank" rel="noopener">detain and deport</a> a number of the dangerous criminal aliens who were the targets of raids throughout the Los Angeles area.</p>
<p>The FBI is <a href="https://x.com/FBILosAngeles/status/1931824873728254090" target="_blank" rel="noopener">offering</a> a reward of up to $50,000 for information leading to the arrest of a man accused of throwing rocks at law enforcement vehicles, injuring a federal officer, and damaging government vehicles.</p>
<p>&#8220;Hit a cop, you’re going to jail … doesn’t matter where you came from, how you got here, or what movement speaks to you. If the local police force won’t back our men and women on the thin blue line, we @FBI will,&#8221; <a href="https://x.com/FBIDirectorKash/status/1931522027719995558" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> FBI Director Kash Patel.</p>
<p>The bedlam continued on Sunday as protesters <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/anti-ice-protesters-swarm-101-freeway-500-u-s-marines-stand-prepared-to-deploy" target="_blank" rel="noopener">swarmed</a> a freeway in Los Angeles and <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7h3jojqNfh0" target="_blank" rel="noopener">set cars on fire</a> in the downtown area.</p>
