The protest-to-riot pipeline: How leftist networks mobilized and funded LA unrest

By Hudson Crozier | Daily Caller Well-funded activists and a coordinated social media campaign helped spark the pro-illegal migrant protests on Friday that descended into days of rioting in Los Angeles. Left-wing groups posted calls to action with a location to gather on Friday in unison after the arrest of a local Service Employees International Union (SEIU) leader on Friday.

Trump ‘border czar’ Homan vows to probe leak that stifled ICE raid in Colorado

By Bailee Hill | Fox News Border czar Tom Homan issued a warning after a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raid was leaked this week, greatly reducing the number of violent Venezuelan gang members authorities were able to arrest.  Homan said he will be addressing the leak stemming from Wednesday's operation in Aurora, Colorado, "immediately" during "The Faulkner Focus," making it clear anyone who stifles the agency's ability to get dangerous criminals off the streets will be held accountable.  "We're not going to tolerate it anymore. This is not a game," Homan told Harris Faulkner on Thursday.  READ THE FULL STORY AT FOX NEWS
