LAPD Chief's message – February 2025

The judges blocking President Trump's agenda with sweeping nationwide injunctions include Judge Angel Kelly, who says the American judicial system is filled with systemic racism, took part in a judicial exchange program with Communist China, and said a police officer could be suspended for criticizing George Floyd.

Another, Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly, sentenced a peaceful 75-year-old pro-life activist to two years in prison, then mocked her when the women's husband asked for leniency based on her poor health. "Make every effort to remain alive, because that's part of the tenets of your religion," she said.

We will not let this administration be derailed by the agenda of a handful of extremists who think a gavel lets them override a democratic election.

K9 Daavo Suits Up for His Official Police Portrait

Looking sharp and ready for duty! 🐾🚔 K9 Daavo of the Draper City Police Department got all dressed up for his official police portrait, and he’s looking every bit the hero he is. From tracking down suspects to protecting his handler, Daavo is an invaluable member of the team.

Let’s hear it for this four-legged officer! 👏🐶💙

A San Francisco police officer was hospitalized after a suspect allegedly slashed the officer with glass several times while being arrested, the San Francisco Police Department said.

Police responded to a report of a fight near Sixth and Folsom streets around 10:30 a.m. Tuesday. Officers found a male victim who said he was struck by another man with a glass bottle, which then shattered. The suspect then attempted to stab the victim with the broken bottle, police said.

Near the scene of the attack, police located a suspect. The officers were placing the suspect in handcuffs when he allegedly used a shard of glass to cut an officer on the head and behind the ear.

The officer was transported to California Pacific Medical Center Van Ness in stable condition. 

Please join us in sending prayers and, or, positive thoughts for his recovery. 🙏🏽

*NEWS INTERRUPTION*

EXCLUSIVE: Per senior DHS source, since February 1st, the number of known gotaways at the southern border has plummeted to a daily average of just 132. That's a 93% decrease from the highs of the Biden admin in FY'2023, when the daily average was 1,800+ known gotaways per day.

Reminder: The Biden admin recorded a staggering 670,674 known gotaways in fiscal year 2023 alone, according to data I obtained from CBP via a FOIA request last year. Thats an average of 1,800+ per day.
Trump’s current average of 132 per day, assuming it held, would be about 48,000 in a year. That would be the lowest number, by far, in at least 15 years.
Still very early into this new Trump admin, but a snapshot of where we are right now.

Statement to FOX from senior DHS source:

“Delivering consequences has results. Illegal crossings are down, gotaways are down. Criminal prosecutions are on the rise. Daily reports of large groups in Mexico, Guatemala, turning back south and surrounding to authorities requesting to go home and we have only just begun. Policy matters.”

⚠️  Mud/Rockslide & Storm Watch Advisory ☔️

Due to recent wildfires and resulting burn scars, parts of Los Angeles County are at a heightened risk for mud and rockslides. A strong storm system is forecasted to bring heavy rainfall to the region later this week, increasing the potential for flash flooding, debris flows, and dangerous road conditions. Residents in affected areas should take precautions now to stay safe.

▪️Storm Watch & Potential Hazards
The incoming storm is expected to bring heavy rain, strong winds, and possible thunderstorms. Rainfall over burn scars can trigger sudden and fast-moving mudslides with little to no warning. Flash flooding may develop quickly, sweeping away people, vehicles, and structures. Debris flows can carry large rocks, trees, and other materials, causing severe damage. Road closures and power outages are possible, and hazardous driving conditions should be expected.

▪️Key Safety Considerations
Stay informed by monitoring weather forecasts and signing up for emergency alerts. Have a family emergency plan in place, including a designated meeting point and evacuation route. Keep essential emergency supplies on hand, such as a battery-powered radio, flashlight, extra batteries, and a first aid kit. Avoid traveling during heavy rainfall, especially in flood-prone or burned areas. Never attempt to cross flooded roads—“Turn Around, Don’t Drown.” Follow all evacuation orders from local authorities immediately.

▪️Stay Informed
