By Timothy D. Naegele[1]
The totally-incompetent Democrats in California still haven't dealt adequately with the damage done by the devastating fires in Los Angeles.[2] Yet, they are confronted by thugs who are bent on keeping criminals in the United States who are here illegally, and who have committed crimes here. It is time to arrest all of them, and deport them to the worst prisons in El Salvador for the rest of their lives.[3]
Some of us were born and raised in Los Angeles, and we went to public schools there. Later, we lived through the Watts Riots and the riots spawned by Rodney King.[4] The rioters were thugs; and they should have been dealt with the same way that President Donald Trump is dealing with today's rioters.
Sanctuary cities need to be eliminated nationally; and President Trump and Tom Homan are doing a brilliant job of keeping illegal aliens out of the country.[5]
