Rioters’ With Face Shields
Posted By: Hazymac, 6/12/2025 6:41:47 PM
The FBI has arrested a man accused of “Conspiracy to Commit Civil Disorders ... for distributing face shields to suspected rioters,” according to Bill Essayli, U.S. Attorney for the Central District of California. On Thursday morning, agents from the FBI’s Los Angeles office arrested Alejandro Theodoro Orellana, who was allegedly seen handing out the shields on June 10, Essayli announced on social media. “We are moving quickly to identify and arrest those involved in organizing and/or supporting civil disorder in Los Angeles,” he wrote.

This week, in anticipation of the ‘No Kings’ protests planned for Saturday, a sheriff in Brevard County, Florida offered a grave warning to any protesters who might be thinking of acting out like the rioters in Los Angeles.
While he fully supports the rights of people to peacefully protest, he was pretty frank about what will happen to lawbreakers.

Florida Sheriff Warns Lefty Would-Be Rioters: ‘We Will Kill You’
At a Florida press conference, Brevard County Sheriff Wayne Ivey issued a deadly warning to potential protesters.
“If you throw a brick, a firebomb, or point a gun at one of our deputies, we will be notifying your family where to collect
Judge Charles Breyer is another member of this unholy fraternity that’s leading this judicial coup. The man tried to—and this is just beyond laughable—wrest the commander-in-chief role from the executive last night. It lasted about 30 seconds before an appeals court slapped it down for gross overreach. It’s become the hallmark characteristic of this cabal of judges who think they’re the entire government. Once again, we have a clown in robes who would fit better as an MSNBC commentator than a judge.
Charlie, brother of former Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer and a Clinton nominee, shares a common thread that’s shared by most of these nutty coup jurists:
The list of "partners" for the March of the Drama Queens... er... the "No King's March" that will kick off on Saturday in 1,800 cities and towns (so we're told by the organizers) reads like an American nightmare.
The Service Employees International Union (SEIU), American Federation of Teachers (AFT), American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE), and American Postal Workers Union — all public unions that use dues to fund political operations like the No Kings March — are listed as "partners" along with dozens and dozens of radical-left groups, including Planned Parenthood (no doubt looking for babies to abort), Common Cause, and another radical labor union,
Alex Padilla is the Democrats’ new star theater kid. He happens to be bad at it, but he’s a Senator so it will get lots of play.
If the Democrats were still in power, it would result in a demand for a Special Counsel and hearings. Today’s stunt reminded me of Jon Lovitz... I’M AN ACTORRRR! In any case, Dems will wring this towel for all it’s worth. Dems and their bootlicking media love acting and actors and lawyers who act for the press. Not long ago, Dems loved Michael Avenatti. He was on a short list for the presidency. (X) That was, until he got caught stealing clients’

The state of Israel has commenced a multipronged operation against the Iranian regime nuclear weapons program and other military capabilities. Prime Minister Netanyahu announced the operation and rationale in the video below. I would take his statements here at face value. Israel could not live with the Iranian nuclear sword of Damocles hanging over its head. Netanyahu has taken action to preserve the Jewish state and Jewish civilization. If successful, the United States and the West will owe Israel a great debt. To those who have their head screwed on straight, the prospect of an Iranian regime with nuclear weapons is unthinkable.
On Monday, Warner Bros. Discovery made it official that they would be splitting in two with one including their movie and TV production studios, the comic book behemoth DC Studios, HBO, and HBO Max. The other? It’s likely to be far less profitable as it’ll consist of its TV channels, such as Cartoon Network, Discovery Channel, Food Network, HGTV, TBS, TLC, TNT, and, most notably here, CNN. In essence, similar to what Comcast did in November.

Today’s Wall Street Journal editorial “Iran’s nuclear breakout” was written before the events of yesterday evening, but it sheds light on them. This is the substance of the editorial on the resolution passed yesterday by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) in the editorial’s concluding paragraphs (link in original):
* * * * *
The IAEA finds that Iran has been hiding nuclear material. Accordingly, “the Agency is not able to verify that there has been no diversion of nuclear material required to be safeguarded under the Agreement to nuclear weapons or other nuclear explosive devices,” it writes.
Then there are Iran’s attempts to cover all of this up. Consider its Marivan site.

Toyota Chairman Akio Toyoda has raised concerns about the environmental benefits of battery electric vehicles (EVs), suggesting that hybrids offer a more practical path to reducing carbon emissions in certain regions. He argues that Toyota’s 27 million hybrid vehicles have the same carbon footprint as only nine million when the entire lifecycle of emissions is taken into account.
WhichCar reports that in a recent interview, Toyota Chairman Akio Toyoda emphasized that while carbon neutrality remains the company’s top priority, he believes that hybrid

The Knockout Game. Polar Bear Hunting. White Girl Bleed a Lot. Flash Mobbing.
There is an entire urban lexicon that describes a nationwide subculture that celebrates anti-white violence, even if progressives dismiss it all as a phony moral panic.
The principal architects of The Great Hate (blue media, academia, Hollywood, government-aligned NGOs) are armchair assassins using the joystick of propaganda to incite the suggestible and the psychotic to anarchy.
Both the advocates and practitioners of violence all vote the same way, for the political party (D) that shares their values.
Progressive scolds always wag their finger and say what America really needs
Let’s talk about a day that California Governor Gavin Newsom would probably like to erase from memory. Tuesday was an absolute trainwreck for the Golden State’s fearless leader, marked by technical blunders, shameless begging, and a string of outright lies that would make even the most seasoned politician blush. If you thought Newsom’s leadership couldn’t sink any lower, buckle up, because this was a masterclass in humiliation.
Riots are tearing through the city over federal immigration enforcement, yet Newsom can’t even bring himself to condemn the violence. Instead, he’s pointing fingers at President Trump while dodging
In the Louvre, there’s a famous painting by the French Artist Jacques-Louis David depicting the Intervention of the Sabine Women. In it, the Sabine men, whose daughters were stolen by and then married to Romans in the mid-8th century BC, returned to avenge Roman treachery and retrieve their offspring. The scene depicts a woman standing between the belligerents, imploring them to cease fighting:
If you are weary of these ties of kindred, these marriage-bonds, then turn your anger upon us; it is we who are the cause of the war, it is we who have wounded and slain our husbands and fathers.

Hispanic Caucus Flipping Out Over Padilla Takedown 32 replies
We just reported the wild action at Department of Homeland Security (DHS) head Kristi Noem's briefing.
On Thursday, Sen. Alex Padilla (D-CA) tried to interrupt the briefing, and then got in a scuffle with agents on the side of the room, was hauled out, and taken down to the ground. [Tweets, videos]
Now if you look at the event, you can see the senator starts loudly interrupting, coming up the side of the room, without initially identifying himself at about 6:30 in this video. Then they stop Padilla, and he's pushing back against them as you can see in the video Bill Melugin posted.
A federal judge late Thursday ruled that the federalization of parts of California's National Guard by President Donald Trump was "illegal," and ordered Trump to return control of the Guard to state Gov. Gavin Newsom "forthwith."
But Judge Charles Breyer stayed his temporary restraining order from taking effect until 3 p.m. ET on Friday to allow the Trump administration to appeal his decision. The administration promptly did just that, asking the 9th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals to block Breyer's ruling from taking effect.
Louisiana doesn’t do everything right. Senator Bill Cassidy remaining in office is a clear depiction of that. In light of the insane protests we’ve seen from the far left over the past week (the same far left that has been fighting to keep illegal aliens from deportation), the Louisiana Freedom Caucus sent out a strong reminder to citizens of the state—essentially reminding them that if they feel threatened by protestors while in their car, they can legally run them over.
Standing alongside a hundred civic leaders as police sirens blared in the background, Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass delivered her most impassioned critique of the federal response to anti-ICE protests to date Thursday.
The mayor — flanked by faith leaders, business leaders and immigrant rights advocates and others — defended the city’s ability to handle the sometimes chaotic protests that have swept across downtown L.A. for the last week, while accusing the Trump administration of deliberately misrepresenting the city as overwhelmed by violence.
“To characterize what is going on in our city as a city of mayhem is just an outright lie,” Bass said,
Department of Homeland Security head Kristi Noem was in Los Angeles Thursday giving a briefing to reporters on the response to the Los Angeles anti-ICE rioting. Then suddenly off to the side you can hear a commotion and someone shouting.
After he created a scene and they were removing him, he identified himself as a senator.
Noem said she would speak with him later.
When I leave here, I’ll have a conversation with him, but I think everyone would agree that wasn’t appropriate,” she said once the press conference began.
“When I leave here, I’ll find him and visit and find out really what his concerns were.

IDF Spokesman Effie Defrin on Friday morning told a press conference that Iran had launched over 100 drones toward Israel in recent hours.
He also noted that over 200 IDF aircraft have attacked over 100 targets in Iran with over 330 munitions.
He did not say when they would reach Israel, but in April 2025, it took such drones several hours.
During that Iranian attack and another attack by Tehran on Israel in October 2024, Israel had a wide alliance of US, Brits, French, and other countries helping to defend it.
Longtime Democratic Washington, D.C., Delegate to the House of Representatives Eleanor Holmes Norton told reporters Tuesday that she intends to run for reelection in 2026. Norton, who turns 88 on Friday, replied “yeah, sure,” after she was asked if she is seeking reelection, Politico reported. When asked how she would respond to anyone questioning whether she is capable of continuing to serve in Congress at her age, Norton stated “I’m going to run,” adding “I don’t know why anybody would even ask me,” the outlet reported. Norton’s comments come after several recent reports have highlighted concerns over her age and ability to continue serving in Congress effectively.
Walmart heiress Christy Walton promoted a planned nationwide protest against President Trump by running a full-page advertisement that ran in the New York Times on Sunday. The ad, which notes that it was paid for by the billionaire heiress, calls on people to participate in the "No Kings" protest slated to take place across the U.S. on June 14 — the same day a military parade celebrating the Army's 250th Anniversary is set to take place in Washington, D.C. The date of the parade and protests also coincides with Mr. Trump's birthday. The ad lists eight declarations, including "WE honor our

A Boeing
Dreamliner plane bound for London with 242 people aboard crashed Thursday moments after takeoff from Ahmedabad in western India.
Video posted on social media appeared to show the jetliner descending followed by a fireball and a dark plume of smoke. It appeared to be the first fatal crash of a Boeing Dreamliner.
“It appears there are no survivors in the plane crash,” G.S. Malik, the police commissioner for Ahmedabad, told The Associated Press, adding that “some locals would have also died” when the plane crashed into a residential area where offices were also located. “Exact figures on casualties are being ascertained,” he said.

What a difference a few hours makes. Just when California Governor Gavin Newsom thought he had scored a political victory against President Trump, reality came crashing down courtesy of the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals.
On Thursday night, Clinton-appointed Judge Charles B. Breyer handed Newsom what appeared to be an early Christmas present, ordering Trump to return control of the California National Guard to the Golden State's governor. Breyer claimed Trump's federalization of the Guard was "illegal" and violated both statutory authority and the Tenth Amendment.
