šŸ‡ŗšŸ‡ø Trump Sends Marines to LA Riots

In partnership with

Happy Tuesday, Patriots!

President Trump just dropped the hammer.

The U.S. Marines have been mobilized as far-left mobs continue torching Los Angeles in a fourth straight day of anti-ICE riots.

Federal agents were attacked. Squad cars destroyed. Foreign flags flown in American streets.

Trump didn’t blink.

ā€œViolent, insurrectionist mobs are swarming and attacking our Federal Agentsā€¦ā€ — President Trump

Now, 700 Marines are locked and loaded, backing the 2,000 National Guard troops already on the ground.

This is the biggest federal show of force on U.S. soil in decades — and Trump’s making it clear:

You don’t mess with our borders. You don’t mess with our country.

Hey Team! šŸ˜Ž

As the violent battle for Los Angeles continues to spiral in Los Angeles, sparked by radical left-wing activists targeting federal immigration enforcement, the Trump administration is stepping up efforts to restore order and protect American families. What the media brands as ā€œpeaceful demonstrationsā€ has in reality turned into dangerous interference with ICE operations - threatening public safety and emboldening lawlessness.

While Democrats stall and spin, President Trump is focused on solutions: backing law enforcement, advancing his immigration reform agenda, and standing firm against those who put politics above public safety. In the face of escalating tension, the administration remains committed to restoring stability and upholding the rule of law.

Check out all the latest developments and more below!

šŸ‘®ā€ā™‚ļø Trump Backs Arrest Threat Against Newsom
President Trump escalated tensions with California Governor Gavin Newsom, stating he would arrest him if he were Border Czar Tom Homan, after Newsom dared Homan to detain him for opposing ICE raids in Los Angeles. Newsom’s challenge came during an MSNBC interview, where he accused President Trump of inflaming riots by deploying 2,000 National Guard troops to quell anti-ICE protests that turned violent, blocking freeways and burning vehicles. President Trump called Newsom ā€œgrossly incompetent,ā€ claiming the governor’s resistance to federal immigration enforcement justified potential arrest, while Newsom labeled the threat an ā€œauthoritarianā€ overreach. The White House later clarified Homan had no plans to arrest Newsom, but emphasized that obstructing ICE operations could lead to legal consequences.

ā˜¢ļø Trump Discusses Iran’s Nuclear Deal Obstacle
President Trump identified Iran’s refusal to halt uranium enrichment as the primary barrier to a new nuclear deal, insisting that no enrichment is permissible under any agreement. Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei rejected a U.S. proposal allowing limited enrichment, labeling it ā€œ100% againstā€ Iran’s interests, while Tehran prepares a counter-proposal to be delivered via Oman. President Trump, speaking at the White House, described Iran as a ā€œtough negotiatorā€ after discussions with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who views Iran’s nuclear ambitions as an existential threat. The U.S. has revived its ā€œmaximum pressureā€ campaign, imposing sanctions on Iran’s shadow banking network to curb funding for its nuclear program. Negotiations, ongoing since April to replace the 2018 deal President Trump exited, face further complications due to Iran’s demand for sanctions relief and continued enrichment capabilities.

šŸ’° Senate Poised to Alter President Trump’s Tax Bill
President Trump’s ā€œBig Beautiful Bill,ā€ a $5 trillion tax and spending package that passed the House, faces significant revisions in the Senate, where Republicans hold a 53-47 majority, as debate begins this week. Senators like Rand Paul and Ron Johnson are pushing for deeper spending cuts to offset the bill’s projected $2.4 trillion deficit increase, with Paul specifically opposing the $5 trillion debt ceiling hike. Blue-state Republicans, such as those from New York, threaten to rebel if state and local tax deduction caps are not adjusted, while others aim to reduce proposed Medicaid cuts that could affect 8.7 million people. The bill’s tax provisions, including extending 2017 tax cuts and overtime exemptions, may be scaled back to simplify the tax code and mitigate inflation risks. If altered, the legislation must return to the House for final approval, with a July 4 deadline looming.

šŸ“° Trump Proposes Infant Investment Accounts
President Trump on Monday unveiled a proposal to give every U.S. baby born between January 1, 2025, and December 31, 2028, a one-time $1,000 government-funded investment account. The accounts would be privately held, tax-deferred, and tied to a U.S. stock index fund, with the option for families, employers, and religious institutions to make additional contributions. Beneficiaries would gain access to the funds at age 18. The initiative is part of Trump's "One Big Beautiful Bill" and was promoted during a White House roundtable featuring CEOs from Goldman Sachs, Dell, and Uber. Trump called the plan a pro-family measure designed to help the next generation benefit from the strength of the American economy.

šŸ”” President Trump Sends Marines to LA Riots šŸ””

For the fourth straight day, Los Angeles remains gripped by unrest as anti-ICE protests escalate into widespread riots, prompting a historic deployment of U.S. Marines to support California’s overwhelmed National Guard. What began as localized demonstrations against immigration enforcement has now become a full-blown crisis involving violent clashes, mass arrests, and a constitutional standoff between state and federal authorities.

The unrest ignited on Friday when protests broke out in Los Angeles, sparked by opposition to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) operations in the city. Rioters, largely organized by far-left groups, called for the abolition of ICE and demanded sanctuary protections for undocumented immigrants. But the protests rapidly turned violent, with agitators blocking highways, setting fires, and attacking law enforcement officers.

By Monday, the situation had deteriorated so badly that President Trump authorized the deployment of Marine units to reinforce the California National Guard. The move followed urgent requests from local commanders who said their forces were outnumbered and increasingly under siege. Pentagon officials confirmed that Marines are working under a ā€œsupport roleā€ but remain prepared for defensive operations if necessary.

California Governor Gavin Newsom quickly condemned the federal intervention, accusing Trump of an ā€œillegal takeoverā€ of the state’s National Guard. He filed a lawsuit attempting to block the deployment, although legal experts suggest the case is unlikely to succeed given federal emergency powers. ā€œThis is a dangerous abuse of authority,ā€ Newsom said during a fiery press conference. ā€œCalifornia does not belong to Donald Trump.ā€

Meanwhile, prominent Democrats have begun to distance themselves from the violent demonstrations. Senator John Fetterman publicly criticized the riots, calling them ā€œanarchyā€ and warning that Democrats were losing the moral high ground by refusing to denounce the violence. ā€œIf we don’t draw a line somewhere, we are complicit,ā€ Fetterman said.

The chaos in Los Angeles has inspired a wave of copycat protests in cities like San Francisco, Austin, and New York. In Manhattan, dozens of protesters were arrested after storming Trump Tower in what police called a coordinated effort to ā€œsow national disruption.ā€ Florida-based activist networks have vowed to bring similar protests to Miami and Orlando in a show of ā€œcoast-to-coast solidarity.ā€

Back in California, tensions remain sky-high. A large anti-ICE protest in downtown Los Angeles was declared an unlawful assembly on Sunday night after protesters clashed with police and hurled debris at officers. Dozens of arrests were made, and multiple businesses were vandalized in what LAPD described as ā€œtargeted attacks on institutions perceived as complicit with ICE.ā€

Newsom has not backed down from his confrontational stance, even daring former ICE Director Tom Homan to ā€œcome arrest me himself.ā€ Homan, who has remained vocal about the need for strong immigration enforcement, called Newsom’s remarks ā€œreckless and dangerous.ā€ The feud between the two men has only further intensified the national spotlight on California.

Despite the state’s resistance, federal officials continue to stress that their goal is not to take over California’s security apparatus but to restore order amid escalating violence. Still, the sight of military vehicles on the streets of Los Angeles has only inflamed tensions with protest organizers, who view the deployment as proof of government overreach.

Amid the chaos, local residents and business owners are left dealing with the fallout. Several neighborhoods in central L.A. remain boarded up, and multiple schools have suspended operations due to safety concerns. The city’s mayor has urged both sides to de-escalate but has so far failed to bring an end to the violence.

šŸ—³ļø The Texas Majority PAC, funded by George Soros with a $3.1 million contribution in 2024, announced its ā€œBlue Texasā€ initiative to turn Texas Democratic, following the party’s failure to win statewide races since 1994. The PAC plans to invest millions ahead of the 2026 midterms, focusing on voter outreach and supporting NGOs that advocate for decriminalizing illegal immigration. The effort, backed by Democracy PAC, aims to capitalize on Texas’s growing urban diversity, despite past unsuccessful attempts by Soros to flip the state.

šŸ‘Š Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. dismissed all 17 Biden-appointed members of the CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, aiming to rebuild public trust in vaccine recommendations. Kennedy plans to appoint new members to scrutinize vaccine safety and efficacy, citing public skepticism and past industry influence as justification. The move, part of a broader review of HHS scientific panels, includes replacing advisory members for the FDA’s vaccine committee to align with the administration’s health policy goals.

šŸ¤ On Tuesday, Elon Musk posted a heart emoji in response to a clip of President Trump wishing him well, suggesting a possible easing of their public feud over the ā€œBig Beautiful Bill.ā€ The gesture followed Musk’s support for the administration’s handling of Los Angeles riots, despite earlier tensions fueled by his opposition to the $5 trillion tax package and unverified Epstein file claims. President Trump, speaking to reporters, welcomed the response, expressing hope for renewed collaboration with Musk to advance national priorities.

šŸ‘®ā€ā™‚ļø Attorney General Pam Bondi announced that the FBI identified a suspect accused of assaulting a federal officer during the Los Angeles anti-ICE riots, following a $50,000 reward offer. President Trump vowed a severe response, warning violent demonstrators that ā€œyou can run, you can’t hide,ā€ as the administration prioritizes law enforcement safety. The suspect, linked to the attack that hospitalized an ICE agent, remains at large, with the FBI intensifying efforts to apprehend them.

šŸ—³ļø President Trump defended Israel’s decision to block and deport Greta Thunberg after she attempted to breach the Gaza blockade aboard a ā€œselfie yacht,ā€ calling her a ā€œstrange, angry personā€ pushing dangerous ideas. Thunberg and her crew were intercepted by the Israeli navy and deported after refusing to reroute, with Israeli officials accusing her of aiding pro-Hamas propaganda. Trump praised Israel’s actions as necessary for national security and criticized Western media for treating Thunberg as a hero rather than a reckless activist.

God bless,
