ALT Lastly, we have to center the importance of the Olympics. What many people don't understand is that Mayor Karen Bass and the city of Los Angeles are obligated to comply with the feds due to the 2028 Olympics. The Olympics are designated as "National Special Security Event" (NSSE) which allows federal agencies like DHS, ICE, CBP, and Secret Service to coordinate "security" with local law enforcement. Mayor Bass cannot legitimately say "ICE out of LA," when she invited the feds to LA in January 2024. LAPD shares information with the feds through the joint terrorism task force and LAPD assists the feds by "securing the perimeter" during immigration raids. LAPD is essentially body guards for ICE during kidnapping operations. To read more about NSSE's make sure to follow NOlympicsLA.
