Dispelling the leftist narrative surrounding the situation, a California sheriff has blasted Kamala Harris for blaming President Donald Trump for the violent riots raging across Los Angeles.
Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco called Harris’ statement “an embarrassment” as she claimed the protests were “overwhelmingly peaceful.”
Her remarks came as rioters were actively setting cars ablaze and attacking police officers.
Sheriff Bianco did not mince words when responding to Harris’s attempt to shift blame for the chaos engulfing Los Angeles streets.
He shared her statement on X, adding his own scathing criticism that exposed the stark disconnect between Democrat leadership and the dangerous reality on the ground.
“President Trump didn’t start these riots. He’s not out there lighting cars on fire, hurling projectiles at law enforcement or blocking freeways,” said Bianco.
“This statement is an embarrassment and does nothing to diffuse the violent riots taking place across the city,” he added.
Harris’ statement condemned President Trump’s deployment of 2,000 National Guard troops to restore order, describing it as a “dangerous escalation.”
She claimed that the president was deliberately “sowing division and chaos” while insisting that the demonstrations were “overwhelmingly peaceful.”
However, videos of burning vehicles and assaulted officers directly contradict Harris.

In another pointed criticism, Bianco accused Harris, California Governor Gavin Newsom, and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass of deliberately misleading the public about the nature of the riots.
“Gavin Newsom, Kamala Harris, Karen Bass and the Democrats want you to think this is a ‘peaceful protest,'” Bianco stated.
The LAPD has been forced to declare downtown Los Angeles an unlawful assembly area as anti-ICE protesters continue throwing rocks at officers and setting vehicles on fire.
Despite this clear evidence of violence, Newsom astonishingly claimed, “We didn’t have a problem until Trump got involved.”
President Trump acted decisively to restore order by deploying National Guard troops and placing 500 Marines on standby.
He issued a directive to “liberate Los Angeles” from illegal aliens and demanded apologies from both Newsom and Bass for their failure to control the situation.
Rather than acknowledging their failure to maintain public safety, Newsom announced plans to sue the Trump administration, claiming the National Guard deployment violates state sovereignty.
Mayor Bass similarly rejected federal assistance, despite being unable to contain the violence with local resources.
President Trump identified the rioters as “violent, insurrectionist mobs,” a stark contrast to the “peaceful protesters” narrative pushed by Harris and her Democrat allies.
The anti-ICE demonstrations have devolved into the kind of lawless chaos that the president warned about during his campaign, vindicating his tough stance on illegal immigration and public safety.
