In the showdown with illegal immigration advocates and maniacs running all over the streets of Southern California, specifically Los Angeles county, it looks like it's Trump 1 anti sovereignty zealots 0. That's right, things are beginning to calm down and it looks like order is slowly being restored. This was madness for a few days, as we know, all started because federal law enforcement officials were trying to enforce federal law. Now no one is arguing that it is not in fact federal law, that these are not illegal aliens, and that there was anything that was done initially by Immigrations and Customs Enforcement that was unlawful, that was wrong. No, they just don't like this. This is what the left has decided when they don't like something. The Democrats, when they decide they don't like something, we're not allowed to do it as a country and as law enforcement has been with the law enforcement operations they've been engaged in. This is showing you exactly how crazy the situation is. They can only argue that they oppose this because it makes them feel angry. Not that Trump is actually doing anything wrong or that his administration is doing anything wrong by enforcing. Now I say wrong, legally wrong. They may not like it morally or ethically, although I would completely disagree with them there too. They have no grounds on which to stand when it comes to opposing the enforcement of federal law. If Democrats don't like this, they should have members of Congress. They should have members of the House and members of the Senate with Ds by their name say, we want open borders, we want legal status for everyone who comes here from all over the world. Problem with that is that would be too honest. They would be arguing for the dissolution of America. And when they're honest about it, then people can actually make decisions like, wow, the Democrats are lunatics who are betraying American sovereignty. And we can't allow that to continue. We have to find a way to stop, to stop this. And so instead they play this game. They want to have it both ways. Oh, Democrats, we want there to be enforcement of the law. We just wanted to be nice. Law enforcement is not nice. You know, my friend Ben Ferguson went on CNN and he pointed out there are Americans all over the country for things sometimes that aren't really that big a deal. Depends on what we're talking about. But there are Americans who get taken to jail, have to serve time, and they have kids and they have wives and they're crying and they're upset about this. And I don't have all these activists running around saying, oh, that's terrible, you're breaking up families. Incarcerating people breaks up families. Deporting people breaks up families. But there's a reason that we have the laws that incarcerate and that deport, because otherwise we have an anarchic society. We have a society where there is no order, where none of us are protected and none of us are accountable either. And that's really what you see with these Democrats. They don't want to be accountable. They don't want to be held to account. They want to be in a position where they can have it as they like it. If you're Gavin Newsom, if you're Mayor Bass, all these different individuals who are complaining about what has happened here in Los Angeles over the last few days, they can use all this flowery language about all the immigrants. And remember, illegals, illegals we're talking about here, the illegals who are doing this and they're working so hard and they're. I don't care. It's against the law. And the law is supposed to be what it says and should be enforced as such. You know, we're not talking about locking people up for decades cuz they're here illegally. We're just saying, look, you're not allowed to be here. Go back to your home country. You're trespassing in America. You know, if somebody was trespassing on my front lawn, I would say to them, hey, you gotta get off my lawn. And this is the. Get off my lawn segment. Hey, you gotta get off my lawn. And if they refused, I would call the cops and I would tell the cops, hey, this is unlawful. Can you please remove this person from the premises? I wouldn't, you know, demand that this person go spend the next 20 years in prison. I, you know, I understand what we're talking about here, but if you can't do that, if you can't call upon law enforcement to enforce that law of trespassing, it's not your property anymore. It's now public property. Right? Property rights, sovereignty. These things are very much related. These things are very similar. And essentially, when you're talking about the sovereignty of who is allowed to be on US Soil, you are talking about the right of the federal government to determine who is lawfully here and who is a trespasser. And trespassing in any context, you could say, oh, well, it's, you know, this is not. You're just here. It's not that big a deal. No, you don't want people. You don't want people in a tent in your backyard. I don't want illegals by the tens of millions in this country who are demanding that the government enforce taxation against me to create the resources necessary for them to get illegal and illicit access to those resources. If the government is going to tell me, I will lock you up. If you do not pay, if you do not give your time, your money, your resources to the government to distribute in this way. If they can lock me up for that, they have to tell these illegals, you got to go. Because otherwise we're operating the world's biggest soup kitchen. We're operating the biggest welfare program, which we already are in the history of the world. But we're operating a welfare program for the entire world, and that is unsustainable. That is not something that can make sense mathematically or ethically. Because a country has to be the people within that country. It can't be everybody. Okay? We are not. We are not just all one thing, one unit here. We are Americans, and then there are foreigners. And if you come here and you're a foreigner who pretends that you have a lawful right to be here. I'm sorry, but that's your problem. There is a country that you came from, and you have a right to be in that country. You know, I'm also getting tired of being told all the time, oh, we need all these illegals. If we need all these illegals, what's going on in their countries? If they're all going to Start the next Google. Or they're just all willing to do the jobs Americans won't do, which also I would say these are non sequiturs because we have laws and they're breaking them. But if it's going to be about how they're bringing all these advantages to this country, why do we have immigration laws that, that specifically. And we do have these laws in place that specifically seek out and privilege those with special skills and that will contribute and that won't be a public ward. And that. Why do, why do we even have those laws, which we do? Why do we have laws that make, why have a legal immigration system that tries to make determinations about who should be here and who shouldn't if we're just going to let everybody come? What does that mean for the people who have done it the right way? What does that mean for the people who are waiting in line? Are they, are they, are they fools for trying to do the right thing? This is why this is a huge thing. Democrats are panicked about this. The biggest switch in immigration sentiment in this country that has occurred over the last four years is among legal immigrants who do not want more illegals coming into the country. Legal immigrants have swung hugely by 40 percentage points to the right on this issue. And it's because they realize, they see and they also resent what's going on. So they had to play by the rules, but other people don't and they get the same benefit. We, we are a country that is going bankrupt slowly but surely as bankruptcies, you know, slowly, but then suddenly as the old joke, we are a country that is going bankrupt and we think that we can fund the, the health care and the upkeep and the benefits of people that arrive here in violation of our laws, speak no English, and aren't going to be able to contribute on a net basis to an information based and skills based economy, especially as AI and all these other things come online. How are we going to fund this? They're funding this with your time and your productivity. This is just a form of global communism. It really is. Because everyone who comes here gets your stuff. The government, the Democrats, they want to take the stuff that we have and distribute it more to other people from all over the world. They're already doing that to Americans and that, that enough can be, that can be enough of a problem. But now they want to do it for everybody else. We can't do this. No one can do this. It makes no sense. This is also why our sponsor here, Birch Gold, Perfect time to talk about this. I hope Trump can fix a lot, and I think he will. But you got to think, where are you with your savings and the wealth that you are setting aside for yourself and your family? Where are you in five years, 10 years, 20 years? Gold has stood the test of time. Gold makes sense. Tariff wars, recession fears, inflation, these are all things that gold is a hedge against. And that's why I've been a guy who owns gold for over 15 years. I totally believe in gold, always have. And there are also a lot of people out there who this would make sense for converting an existing IRA or 401k into an IRA in physical gold. And that's a great thing to do. Birch Gold Group, the best in the business at this. Text my name Buck to 9898 98. Birch Gold will send you a free, no obligation info kit. Again, text my Name Buck to 9898 98. That's B U C K. Text Buck to 9898 98. Birch Gold Group. You know, you're also seeing more of where these Democrats are on the issues of law and order and crime still. And it is just the hypocrisy around this. It really drives me nuts because when it came to January 6th, they were so all in. So all in on, oh, we support law enforcement. The only cops, the only cops the Democrats have liked in the last decade are any cops that were pushed, shoved or punched on January 6th. That's it. Those are the cops that they care. Or a cop who had a heart attack a week later, the Capitol Hill police. That's it. The cops now getting punched and getting bricks thrown at them and everything. They don't care about that at all. In fact, they view the ICE and other law enforcement officials who are trying to restore and have been trying to restore sanity on the streets of Los Angeles as part of the problem. I mean, let's, let's just call it what it is. They really think that those people are getting what they deserve. And that's something that I think for a lot of people is really hard to stomach about. The Democrat position on this is that they are with the rioters. This is why they say things like, well, don't continue to riot because you'll be giving in. You'll be giving into the other side. Politically. It's not that rioting is bad and you shouldn't do it. It's if you riot, you will be helping our political enemies. So that's the problem. What about, you just shouldn't be burning down restaurants and looting CVS is because you're, you know, you think you have some excuse. You're having a bad day. Also, the malcontents who do this stuff, they don't care about immigrants. They just want to go through this cosplay as revolutionaries and have an excuse to act out the rage that they have because they're losers. I know I sound like Trump here, but it's true. They're losers. They are. They're losers. If you're throwing bricks at cops because you don't like that the laws of this country are being enforced when it comes to illegal aliens, you're a loser. Because you don't believe in America. You don't believe in law and order. You believe in some kind of, you know, ethnic alliance, maybe, that you have to have solidarity with some people, not others, only some people. And that's not what America is. It's not supposed to be, oh, I'm this ethnicity or I'm this skin color, and I stand with those people, even if they are breaking the law. And you're seeing that with some of the Latino community in South Southern California. They just are. They don't like that. It's Latinos. Trust me. If they were. If they were doing this with Somali illegal immigrants, let's say, in Minnesota, I don't even know how many illegal Somali immigrants there are, but if they were doing this with Somali, There's a lot of immigrants there. I think a lot of them are. Asylum. Got asylum in Minnesota. Do you think that there would be these people marching and waving Mexican flags and El Salvador and other flags on the streets of L. A? No, of course not. So there's an ethnic solidarity component of this where you say, well, hold on a second. Whereas my first allegiance is to my fellow Americans of all skin colors, all ethnicities, Americans, what is this waving a Mexican flag when you're in California as a way of protesting against the United States government? Whose team. You really want to ask this question? Whose team are they on? It would never occur to me ever to wave a foreign flag on the streets of the United States, any city in the United States, any town, anywhere in the United States, because it would show. Well, I'm not really, first and foremost an American. And this is why the public sentiment has turned so much against what we're seeing in Southern California. This is why the Democrats are having to back off of this now. Gavin Newsom. No, order's being restored. They're going to say, oh, we showed Trump. Yeah, sure they did. And it's why these deportations need to be ramped up. We need to see deportations at a level that the country's never seen before. In terms of the numbers, we have to have more deportations than, you know, than ever before. We have to restore a sense that this country has borders and this country has immigration laws. Our sponsor is Paradigm Press. You know, some nations have a sovereign wealth fund. Japan, Norway, Saudi Arabia. It's a program that citizens of that country benefit from. And the development of oil, for example, can be an asset that leads to a sovereign wealth fund. There are people who think that in this country there's $150 trillion of wealth buried under our soil and could be the basis for a sovereign wealth fund. This endowment, so to speak, is so large it could pay off our national debt four times over.

The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show
Episode: Buck Brief - Maniacs Rage in Los Angeles as Trump Enforces the Law
Release Date: June 11, 2025
In this episode of The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show, host Buck Sexton delves into the recent turmoil in Los Angeles County, where federal law enforcement, under the Trump administration, has intensified efforts to enforce immigration laws. The discussion centers on the clash between federal authorities and local anti-sovereignty activists, highlighting the broader political and social implications of these events.
Buck Sexton begins by addressing the chaos that erupted in Southern California as federal authorities moved to uphold immigration laws. He states:
“In the showdown with illegal immigration advocates and maniacs running all over the streets of Southern California, specifically Los Angeles county, it looks like it’s Trump 1 anti sovereignty zealots 0.”
[01:06]
He emphasizes that the unrest was triggered by legitimate federal actions to enforce immigration laws, asserting that the opposition stems from ideological disagreements rather than legal disputes.
“They have no grounds on which to stand when it comes to opposing the enforcement of federal law.”
[01:06]
Sexton further explains that the Trump administration's efforts are aimed at restoring order and sovereignty, contrasting this with what he perceives as the Democrats' disregard for law and order.
A significant portion of the discussion critiques the Democratic response to immigration enforcement. Sexton argues that Democrats prefer the dissolution of American sovereignty over enforcing existing laws:
“If Democrats don’t like this, they should have members of Congress with Ds by their name say, we want open borders, we want legal status for everyone who comes here from all over the world.”
[01:06]
He accuses Democratic leaders like Gavin Newsom of using emotional rhetoric to oppose law enforcement actions, portraying them as hypocritical in their support of only selective law enforcement measures.
“The Democrat position on this is that they are with the rioters... but they're not saying no, you just shouldn't be burning down restaurants and looting CVS.”
[09:45]
Sexton also highlights a shift in sentiment among legal immigrants, noting a significant move towards the right on immigration issues as they become frustrated with the influx of illegal immigrants.
“The biggest shift in immigration sentiment in this country that has occurred over the last four years is among legal immigrants who do not want more illegals coming into the country.”
[13:20]
The host discusses the societal consequences of unchecked illegal immigration, linking it to economic strain and the erosion of American sovereignty. He likens the situation to:
“We’re operating the world’s biggest soup kitchen. We’re operating the biggest welfare program, which we already are in the history of the world.”
[11:30]
Sexton argues that illegal immigration undermines the legal immigration system, unfairly disadvantaging those who follow legal channels and tipping the scales towards what he describes as a form of global communism.
“They’re funding this with your time and your productivity. This is just a form of global communism.”
[14:50]
He underscores the unsustainability of current policies, questioning how the U.S. will continue to fund welfare programs for an ever-increasing population of illegal immigrants.
Buck Sexton highlights the growing frustration among both legal immigrants and native citizens regarding illegal immigration. He points out that legal immigrants have become significantly more conservative on immigration issues, reflecting widespread resentment over the influx of illegal immigrants.
“Legal immigrants have swung hugely by 40 percentage points to the right on this issue.”
[15:10]
Sexton also touches on the ethnic dimensions of the protests in Los Angeles, suggesting that the majority of the unrest is driven by the Latino community's opposition to Mexican and Central American immigrants, rather than a broader, multi-ethnic coalition.
“If they were doing this with Somali illegal immigrants in Minnesota... it would never occur to me ever to wave a foreign flag on the streets of the United States.”
[12:35]
In wrapping up, Buck Sexton reiterates the need for stringent immigration enforcement to preserve American sovereignty and social order. He calls for increased deportations to reinforce the rule of law and prevent the further erosion of national integrity.
“We have to restore a sense that this country has borders and this country has immigration laws.”
[15:50]
Sexton's commentary underscores the ongoing political struggle over immigration policy in the United States, reflecting deep-seated divisions and the contentious nature of enforcing federal laws in a polarized environment.
