ICE Actions at Children’s Camp Spark Outrage
On Monday, federal agents in tactical gear and military-style uniforms conducted an enforcement operation at MacArthur Park in Los Angeles, drawing criticism from local officials. Mayor Karen Bass described the scene as a city under siege and condemned the action, which occurred near a summer day camp. Border Patrol officials stated they intended to continue these operations despite community opposition. This show of force, involving armored vehicles and military-grade weapons, was denounced by California Governor Gavin Newsom and Senator Alex Padilla, who criticized the prioritization of intimidation over emergency aid.
