Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News

An immigration raid at a California Home Depot has raised the temperature on simmering tensions in Los Angeles. Video posted to social media shows what appears to be a squad of federal agents loading into a Penske truck, with the video's caption saying the scene was recorded at 6:40 a.m. The Office of Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass decried the raids and stipulated that such federal actions are prohibited by a recent court ruling. Additionally, Penske criticized federal agents for using their trucks in a prohibited manner. Penske strictly prohibits the transportation of people in the cargo area of its vehicles under any circumstances," the company said in a statement posted to social media. "The company was not made aware that its trucks would be used in today's operation and did not authorize this. Penske will reach out to [the Department of Homeland Security] and reinforce its policy to avoid improper use of its vehicles in the future."
