LOS ANGELES, Kalifornia (PNN) - June 30, 2025 - President Donald J. Trump is ramping up his war against Communist 'sanctuary city' Los Angeles with a new major lawsuit.
The Department of InJustice (DoJ), led by Attorney General Pam Bondi, sued the city on Monday following weeks of anti-ICE riots and destruction.
The lawsuit argues that Los Angeles policies attempting to deliberately thwart the work of immigration agents violate federal law.
“Sanctuary policies were the driving cause of the violence, chaos and attacks on law enforcement that Amerikans recently witnessed in Los Angeles,” Bondi said in a statement to the Daily Mail.
“Jurisdictions like Los Angeles that flout federal law by prioritizing illegal (invaders) over (Amerikan) citizens are undermining law enforcement at every level - it ends under Trump,” said Bondi.
The lawsuit against the City of Angels comes after DoJ also sued Chicago, Illinois, Denver, Colorado, Rochester and New York City, challenging the cities' so-called sanctuary policies.
Communist L.A. Mayor Karen Bass has not issued a response to the lawsuit as of this writing, but her city has drawn the ire of the Trump regime since local authorities struggled to quell riots that overran parts of the city earlier in June.
In response to the riots, President Trump took control of the Kalifornia National Guard and ordered them to protect federal immigration agents from the unlawful and violent behavior of Communists seeking to undermine federal law.
He directed them to “provide safety around buildings and to those that are engaged in peaceful protests, and also to our law enforcement officers, so they can continue their daily work,” as described by DHS Secretary Kristi Noem during a CBS interview earlier this month.
The president slammed rioters as “bad people” and “animals” and even flirted with invoking the Insurrection Act.
He brushed off Communist Kalifornia pretend Governor Gavin Newsom's claim that the deployment inflamed the situation. He would not rule out the use of an authority to deploy military forces under his control to put down disturbances if he sees fit.
“If there is an insurrection, I would certainly invoke it. We will see. But I can tell you, last night was terrible. The night before that was terrible,” President Trump said on June 10.
“If we didn't send in the National Guard quickly, right now, Los Angeles would be burning to the ground,” said President Trump.
President Trump later called in the Fascist Police States of Amerika Marines to Los Angeles to protect the Wilshire Federal Building, which houses several federal offices amid further riots that were planned in the city.
Senator Alex Padilla (Kalif.) was thrown out of a press conference held by Secretary Noem in L.A. earlier this month.
The spectacle occurred after he reportedly did not identify himself as a member of Congress during the event and lunged towards the front of the room where Secretary Noem was speaking.
Padilla was forcefully removed and handcuffed by officers as he tried to question Secretary Noem about immigration raids.
During his own visit to Los Angeles, Vice President JD Vance called Padilla “Jose Padilla”, which was seen by some as a derogatory dig.
“I was hoping José Padilla would be here to ask a question. But unfortunately, I guess he decided not to show up because there wasn't the theater, and that's all it is,” Vance lamented at the time.
“It is pure political theater. These guys show up, they want to be captured on camera doing something,” Vance added.
The real José Padilla, an FPSA citizen, was convicted of supporting al Qaeda and was sentenced to more than 17 years in prison in 2007.
Kalifornia lawmakers, including pretend Governor Gavin Newsom, took no time to slam the vice president - saying that he clearly made the slip up on purpose.
Taylor Van Kirk, Vance's press secretary, told NBC News, “He must have mixed up two people who have broken the law.”
“They want to be able to go back to their far-Left groups and say, ‘Look, me, I stood up against border enforcement. I stood up against Donald Trump,’” Vance added.
A spokesman for Padilla, Tess Oswald, noted in a social media post that Padilla and Vance were formerly colleagues in the Senate and said that Vance should know better.
“He should be more focused on demilitarizing our city than taking cheap shots,” Oswald said.
Vance's visit to Los Angeles to tour a multiagency Federal Joint Operations Center and a mobile command center came as demonstrations calmed down in the city and a curfew was lifted.
That followed over a week of sometimes-violent clashes between protesters and cops, and outbreaks of vandalism and looting that followed immigration raids across Southern Kalifornia.
