The anti-ICE riots are just the latest chapter in a deeply troubling story: the Left’s complete abandonment of law and order. What began as fringe rhetoric is now mainstream policy in Democrat-run cities, where law enforcement is vilified, violent mobs are coddled, and illegal immigrants are given more protections than American citizens.
These riots didn’t erupt in a vacuum. They are the direct result of a culture of lawlessness that Democrats have allowed and even encouraged. Cities under the Left’s control have turned into chaos zones, where criminals are emboldened, flags are burned, and the police are told to stand down. These ideas are dangerous. And they’re spreading because too many elected officials refuse to stand up for common sense and the rule of law.
We saw this all before — in 2020 — when the fake news media ran cover for violent agitators with headlines like “fiery but mostly peaceful protests.” That wasn’t journalism; it was propaganda. And the American people haven’t forgotten. They’re smarter than the Left gives them credit for. They know that torching buildings, beating cops, and rioting in the streets is not free speech — it’s a threat to our republic.
