Border Patrol agents in the greater Los Angeles area came under attack by residents unhappy with the ongoing deportation operations in two separate incidents. In one attack, a motorist rammed a Border Patrol vehicle, and vehicles were vandalized. On Friday, significant damage to units occurred after rocks were thrown, and tires were slashed.
The violent attacks occurred on Friday and began at approximately 3: oo p.m., in Bell, California on Atlantic Avenue. According to the Bell Police Department, a Jeep collided with an unmarked Border Patrol vehicle and became lodged underneath. Initial reports indicated a child may have been involved in the accident and emergency services might be required.
Ten Iranian Questions
replies
1. What are we to make of Saturday night’s destruction of the three Iranian nuclear sites at Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan? Trump and the U.S. military took a great risk and succeeded in astounding fashion. Operationally, the destruction of the nuclear sites seems to have gone perfectly, in contrast to a long history of America’s Middle East debacles from the failed 1980 Carter rescue mission to the 2021 flight from Kabul.
You can almost hear those suffering from Trump Derangement Syndrome pondering this question as they struggle to absorb the spectacular success President Donald Trump just achieved in Iran.
They’ve already given their answer.

The LA County Sheriff’s Department has deleted a social media post calling the US airstrikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities “tragic” after being dragged online.
“Our hearts go out to the victims and families impacted by the recent bombings in Iran,” the department wrote on X Sunday in a now-deleted post.
“While this tragic event happened overseas, the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department is closely monitoring the situation alongside our local, state and federal partners.”
The post sparked immediate outrage and was allegedly updated to exclude the part sending condolences to “the victims and families” and calling the US military airstrikes “tragic.”

Pakistan condemned U.S. President Donald Trump for bombing Iran, less than 24 hours after saying he deserved a Nobel Peace Prize for defusing a recent crisis with India.
Relations between the two South Asian countries plummeted after a massacre of tourists in Indian-controlled Kashmir in April. The nuclear-armed rivals stepped closer to war in the weeks that followed, attacking each other until intense diplomatic efforts, led by the U.S., resulted in a truce for which Trump took credit.
It was this “decisive diplomatic intervention and pivotal leadership”
It was hardly necessary to consult Nostradamus to know that the Democrats would denounce President Trump’s decision to bomb three Iranian nuclear sites on Saturday. Nonetheless, the combination of hypocrisy, historical illiteracy, and constitutional ignorance that characterized their reaction to the raid was startling even by Democrat standards. Several actually claimed that Trump somehow committed an impeachable offence by ordering the strikes, though none seemed able to specify any “high crimes” or “misdemeanors.” Some insisted that Trump violated the War Powers Act.
Up until now, President Donald Trump has stopped short of calling for regime change in Iran, but after he ordered the massive U.S. strikes on the Islamic Republic’s nuclear sites Saturday evening, he appears to have changed his tune. If the current despotic, extremist regime can’t make “Iran Great Again,” perhaps it’s time for someone else to do it, he suggested: Posting to Truth Social Sunday afternoon, he argued that it’s time for “MIGA”:
It’s not politically correct to use the term, “Regime Change,” but if the current Iranian Regime is unable to MAKE IRAN GREAT AGAIN, why wouldn’t there be a Regime change??? MIGA!!!
Frederick W. Smith, the founder and former executive chairman of FedEx, died on Saturday, the company announced. He was 80 years old.
"Fred was more than just the pioneer of an industry and the founder of our great company. He was the heart and soul of FedEx – its PSP culture, values, integrity, and spirit," a message to FedEx employees from CEP Raj Subramaniam said, referring to the company's philosophy of "People-Service-Profit."
Smith was described as "a mentor to many" and "source of inspiration to all."
He graduated from Yale in 1966 and served four years in the Marine Corps,
Homeland Security officials are warning Americans of heightened threats in the United States after the attacks on Iran.
The Department of Homeland Security issued an advisory on June 22 saying attacks from low-level cyber “hacktivists” are likely, and larger attacks could follow if Iranian leaders issue a religious ruling “calling for retaliatory violence against targets in the Homeland.”
The agency said Iran has a longstanding commitment to strike American government officials following the killing of Iranian Gen. Qassem Soleimani in 2020, but the attacks on Iran will likely amplify that commitment.
The United States, the Middle East and world oil markets are bracing for Iran’s response after President Donald Trump launched punishing strikes on Iranian nuclear energy sites overnight, plunging the region into an unprecedented new phase of a decades-old conflict.
The U.S. struck Iranian nuclear facilities, including the key Fordo site, with 14 GBU-57s, 30,000-pound “bunker buster bombs,” according to the U.S. military. It was the first time the United States has directly bombed the Islamic Republic. The next 48 hours are of particular concern,
Jasmine Crockett’s latest tone-deaf outrage proves once again that some Democrats care more about political posturing than national security. Instead of applauding President Donald Trump’s decisive strike on Iran’s nuclear facilities, a move that will protect American lives and interests, Crockett is mad that Trump didn’t “holla” at her first to ask for permission.
Just hours after President Trump accomplished what no other leader dared—crippling Iran’s nuclear program—Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) took to social media in a tirade, fuming that the president didn’t ask for her “permission” to carry out the strike. She failed to acknowledge that the mission was deliberately kept under tight wraps, known only to a select group
Former Russian president Dmitry Medvedev has claimed that a number of countries are now prepared to supply Iran with nuclear warheads following the recent American airstrikes on Iranian nuclear facilities. In a series of posts on X, Medvedev said the US operation-targeting sites in Isfahan, Natanz, and Fordow - had not only failed to achieve its objective but had, in fact, produced the opposite result. Meanwhile, Iran sought support from Russia, with Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi stating that he would travel to Moscow to hold talks with President Vladimir Putin.
President Donald Trump addressed the nation on Saturday night, shortly after announcing that the United States had launched strikes on three major Iranian nuclear enrichment facilities—Fordow, Natanz, and Esfahan.(Snip) However, what quickly drew attention online was JD Vance’s visibly “confused” expression, which soon became the subject of memes and social media speculation. (Snip) Another wrote, “Vance doesn't look happy at all.”

Border Czar Tom Homan was on “Sunday Morning Futures” with host Maria Bartiromo to discuss the threat of Iranian sleeper cells inside the United States.
“How many Iranians are in the country that are in sleeper cells trying to do bad to America, right now?” Bartiromo asked.
“I said the last four years my biggest concern was this open border, was the biggest national security vulnerability this country has ever seen,” Homan said.
“I pulled numbers this morning just from CBP under Joe Biden. There was 1,272 nationals Iran released in the country,” Homan said.
“You compare that to the Trump administration, zero, right? Zero releases,” Homan continued.
My neighbor was just telling me about an exhausting 13-hour flight she took home from Europe. I find the Los Angeles to New York journey, a mere five to six hours, to be taxing—but what about a 37-hour flight? That’s got to be tough.
But that’s how long it took for our Air Force pilots to get from Missouri to Iran and back for their stunning Saturday night attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities.
They did enjoy a few creature comforts while soaring through the air in B-2 Stealth bombers, however:
The B-2 stealth bombers used to attack the Fordow nuclear enrichment plant are equipped with toilets, microwaves and usually a cooler for snacks
We've written about how the U.S. strike on Iran's three nuclear sites on Saturday was such an epic military operation, from the incredible operational security and deploying decoys, to how well the operation was carried out, completing all the strikes within 25 minutes, and reportedly, getting all our people out safely without even being fired on.
It was so well done, you even had something that you rarely ever see: what appeared to be praise or at least an acknowledgment of how well it had been done from MSNBC host Jonathan Capehart. Savor this, it's them having to admit reality. [Video]
Completely Obliterated
replies
At approximately 3:17 a.m. Tehran time, the gates of hell opened—not metaphorically, but with the full weight and precision of American military might. According to sources familiar with the mission planning, President Trump ordered the deployment of six GBU-57 “bunker buster” bombs on Iran’s deeply-buried Furdow nuclear facility. And in doing so, he didn’t just decapitate the snake; he incinerated the lair it slithered from.
This was no fluke, no accident, and certainly no spur-of-the-moment fit of fury. It was planned, methodical, and cloaked in classic Trump misdirection. Early that morning, a decoy fleet of B-2 Spirits was seen heading west—drawing the attention of Iran’s already twitchy radar.
Iran’s parliament has voted to close the Strait of Hormuz, the vital shipping channel through which around 20% of the world’s daily oil flows.
The move, which could block $1 billion in oil shipments per day, is likely to send oil prices soaring.
It will come into effect pending a final decision by Iran’s Supreme Council. The Supreme Council’s decision must be made by tonight, according to Iran’s state-run Press TV.
Iran’s major escalation in response to US strikes on its nuclear facilities “will be done whenever necessary,” Email Kosari, Commander in the Revolutionary Guards, said on Sunday.
Settle down, everybody. The same people who thought nothing of trans actors going topless on the White House grounds at Easter, er, Trans Day of Visibility, now pretend to be outraged over a Rose Garden renovation. Just wait until they find out what else the Trumps have planned.
After news that landscaping crews brought in the backhoe, Democrat "strategists" and the female salt-and-peppered outrage actors began having fits over...President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump placing pavers over the grass in the White House Rose Garden, so that peoples' chairs don't sink in the grass or high heels get lost in the rough.
Oh, the humanity.
Thank you, President Trump, for making the world a safer place today than it has been for a number of years. This is the beginning of the eradication of the evil of the ayatollahs, and the destruction of Amalek. The majority of that fight will be taken on by Israel, as it always has been. The left has again shown their true colors. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's call for impeachment demonstrates not only her ignorance about world dynamics, (Snip) The question now is what the future holds. There will undoubtedly be attacks on Israeli and U.S. interests overseas. But we need to also be concerned about what will happen domestically.
Democrats wasted no time showing their true colors after President Donald Trump decisively took out Iran’s nuclear program. Instead of acknowledging the threat posed by a regime hell-bent on acquiring weapons of mass destruction, the left immediately defaulted to its usual script of outrage, hand-wringing, and impeachment talk.
The ink was barely dry on reports of the successful strike before prominent Democrats were out in force, condemning Trump’s actions as reckless and “impeachable.”
“The President’s disastrous decision to bomb Iran without authorization is a grave violation of the Constitution and Congressional War Powers,” Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) claimed in a post on X. “He has impulsively risked launching a war

On Sunday morning Russia's former president and current deputy chairman of the country's Security Council Dmitry Medvedev issued his reaction to the major US overnight strike on Iran's nuclear facilities, giving what's essentially the view of where things stand from the Kremlin.
Medvedev in a ten-point list of reactions characterized the attacks as ultimately ineffective, and that it will blow back on America and Israel in a way opposite than intended, especially as Tehran will now only push harder for a nuke, and allied countries might now simply be willing to supply them to the Iranians, he described.

There are some things I'd never do in life. I'd never challenge Usain Bolt to a race. I'd never have a conversation with Clarence Thomas and pretend to know more about the law than he does. I'd never volunteer to tackle Derrick Henry, and I'd never try to tell Peyton Manning how to throw a football. And I'd certainly never try to outsmart Secretary of State Marco Rubio on something like foreign intelligence.
But Margaret Brennan doesn't seem to know how to stay in her lane.
