Los Angeles: Thousands Denounce ICE Raids in July 4 Protest

from #WorldOutlook
July 5, 2025

"The article below first appeared in the #LosAngeles Times on July 5, 2025. The protest the article describes was a fitting way to mark #US Independence Day, given the #Trump administration’s intensified workplace raids and #deportations of undocumented #immigrants. L.A. has been the epicenter of many such protests over the last month since the White House picked the city to launch its aggressive dragnet, carried out by Immigration and Customs Enforcement #(ICE) agents, targeting millions of workers across the country.

As a recent article published by the #WashingtonPost revealed, ICE arrests have more than doubled since Trump took office in January, compared to the same period last year."

#JoeRogan Feels Trump Betrayed Him on #Immigration

The podcast king, once a prominent supporter of #DonaldTrump, denounced the president’s aggressive #deportation tactics on his wildly popular podcast.

[I think that this is significant.]

"Rogan, who endorsed Trump just hours before the 2024 presidential election, now says he was misled by the man he helped boost into office. The podcaster and UFC commentator, known for giving a platform to anti-cancel culture figures and free speech advocates, is now accusing #Trump of betraying the very values he campaigned on."

#Rogan:
“There’s two things that are insane. One is the targeting of migrant workers, not cartel members, not gang members, not drug dealers, just construction workers showing up at construction sites, raiding them. Gardeners. Like, really?”

Fear and Quiet Resistance Amid a Los Angeles in Turmoil

How the #ICE Raids Are Warping #Latino Life in #LosAngeles

In Boyle Heights, a predominantly Latino neighborhood in East Los Angeles, the streets were unusually quiet. In the early afternoon, a time when the neighborhood is typically bustling with activity, the sidewalks and stores were empty.

I met Ceasar Sanchez, standing at the entrance of a barbershop on Cesar Chavez Avenue, one of the area’s main thoroughfares. Inside, every chair sat empty.

Mr. Sanchez, who works at the shop, hasn’t had a single client this week. “They’re just afraid to go anywhere — shopping, stores, even work,” he explained.

‘Justice Will Prevail,’ #MahmoudKhalil Says as He Goes Free on Bail

Mr. Khalil, a #Columbia graduate, had been held in Louisiana for over three months as the #Trump administration sought to deport him. A judge found reason to believe it was retaliation for his pro-#Palestinian speech.

"On Friday, Judge Farbiarz rebuked the government mildly, noting that it had offered no evidence to suggest that Mr. Khalil was a danger to his community. The administration’s claims about his links to, or even sympathies for, #Hamas have not been substantiated in court.

“He is not a danger to the community, period, full stop,” the judge said."

"Kevin Takumi, a videographer and photographer for Fox’s #LosAngeles affiliate, posted aerial video on X showing several vans and SUVs, and apparent #immigration officers, around entrances to the stadium.

“ICE agents are taking up positions at the entrances to #DodgerStadium, media and crowd beginning to arrive,” Takumi wrote.

[...] the #Dodgers beat writer for the #LATimes, said on X: “Regarding the photos going around on social media this morning about #ICE agents at Dodger Stadium: sources say ICE agents tried to access Dodger Stadium today, but were denied entry to the grounds by the team.”"

ICE's 'inhumane’ arrest of well-known vineyard manager shakes Oregon wine industry

Friends and family of Moises Sotelo ‘disappointed and disgusted’ after respected fixture detained outside church

"On Wednesday morning, #ICE’s detainee locator showed that Sotelo had been moved more than 1,500 miles south-west to the Akima-run Florence service processing center in the Arizona desert. Ice did not notify the family or their lawyers about the relocation.

In response to a Guardian inquiry about whether Ice had no obligation to inform families and attorneys of a detainees status, a spokesperson for US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (Ice) replied, “that is correct”. Ice did not respond to other questions about the case, including whether officers had a warrant or any documentation of a criminal record for Sotelo."
