Tolerance of violence in US cities is stoking insurrection

October 09, 2025

AS MIGHT be expected, the AFP report on violence in US cities failed to provide any context as to why the Trump Administration has branded them war zones (The Mercury, October 7).

- DR DUNCAN DU BOIS | Bluff

The legacy of the Biden regime's legalised invasion by millions of unvetted illegal immigrants is the cause of crime and violence in Democrat-run sanctuary cities.

Prominent amongst those illegals are Antifa, drug cartel gangsters, Tren de Aragua terrorists from Venezuela, MS13 terrorists from Colombia, human traffickers and criminals of every dangerous stripe.

The globalist enemies of the USA have long been plotting to destroy America from within via a civil war, social polarisation , wokeism, critical race theory and media indoctrination. Trump was elected to combat that and to make America great again.

For 80 consecutive days anarchic elements have been rioting against ICE agents in Portland Oregon, committing arson and vandalism, hindering ICE agents from carrying out a federal order to remove illegal aliens.
