Top White House aide Stephen Miller paved the way for President Donald Trump to invoke the Insurrection Act on Tuesday in a social media meltdown over video of Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass saying the raids on undocumented migrants needed to stop.

In a video he shared on X, Mayor Bass asserted, "We need to stop the raids. This should not be happening in our city. It is not warranted and...the only thing it does is contribute to chaos. This was chaos that was started in Washington, D.C. On Thursday, the city was peaceful; on Friday it was not because of the intervention of the federal government."

That seemed to be enough ammunition for Miller to make his case for an "insurrection" that needed to be neutralized.

"The threat being made here by Mayor Bass is explicit," Miller wrote. "The Mayor of LA is effectively saying the mob violence is caused by the mere presence of ICE in the city and the violence against ICE will not stop unless federal law enforcement is withdrawn from the city. This is the definition of insurrection.

"LA and CA leadership demand the right to illegally import unlimited foreigners into America, to control America’s entire immigration policy by fiat — and if they are not so permitted they will allow mobs to target ICE with impunity. Los Angeles and California are demanding the nullification of the election results, of federal law, of national sovereignty, and of the bedrock constitutional command of one national government."

Bass has not called on Los Angelenos to "target ICE with impunity."

“The violence and the damage is unacceptable,” Bass said Tuesday. “It is not going to be tolerated, and individuals will be arrested and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.”

In a follow-up post, Miller retweeted another video of Bass that he claimed showed her siding "with the insurrection mob" for telling "ICE to abandon the city."
