    Federal immigration raids continue to sweep across the Southland, with
    recent operations leading to multiple arrests and sparking political mobilization.

    On Wednesday, federal agents conducted an immigration raid at a Los
    Angeles Home Depot parking lot using a Penske rental truck, resulting in
    16 arrests. This operation, dubbed “Trojan Horse,” is part of a broader crackdown during the “Summer of Resistance.”

    Penske stated that they strictly prohibit the transportation of people in
    the cargo area of their vehicles and were unaware that their trucks were
    used in the operation.

    The Department of Homeland Security indicated the raid was in response to
    MS-13 gang activity in the area, although KTLA has not confirmed this
    claim.

    Meanwhile, new video circulating on social media shows two women detained during a separate raid on Wednesday, one of whom is Sabrina Medina, a
    pregnant U.S. citizen. Medina was released on Wednesday night and claims
    that agents detained her to reach her undocumented husband, who has a
    criminal record.

    KTLA previously interviewed Medina in June when federal agents raided her
    home searching for her husband.

    Immigrant rights organizations are planning a day of action on Tuesday, including boycotts and a caravan rally. Businesses targeted for boycott
    include McDonald’s, Target, Walmart and Home Depot, which are criticized
    for not speaking out against DHS/ICE raids.

    Los Angeles Police Department Chief Jim McDonnell expressed concerns about potential conflicts during the raids.

    “It’s tough on us…We work on everything but immigration,” McDonnell told
    KTLA 5 News. “There are potential blue-on-blue incidents because we don’t
    know who’s involved. I’m trying to make sure nobody gets hurt.”

    November 5, 2024 - Congratulations President Donald Trump. We look
    forward to America being great again.

    We live in a time where intelligent people are being silenced so that
    stupid people won't be offended.

    Every day is an IQ test. Some pass, some, not so much.

    Thank you for cleaning up the disasters of the 2008-2017, 2020-2024 Obama
    / Biden / Harris fiascos, President Trump.

    Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the
    The World According To Garp. Obama sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood
    queer liberal democrat donors.
