Commentary: In an L.A. park, Trump unleashed his latest show of farce: The Battle of the Photo Op
Briefly

Federal agents conducted a noticeable show of force in MacArthur Park, involving mounted agents, Humvees, and a helicopter. This operation was largely ineffective as previous social media warnings led to an empty park. Instead of a typical crowd, activists arrived to mock the agents. The event reflected a ridiculous display of power amid an ongoing detainment operation that has seen over 1,600 individuals apprehended. This situation highlighted the contrast between the intended serious representation of authority and a farcical reality in which the agency's efforts faced public derision.
Federal agents on horseback with a white steed in the middle trotted through a soccer field. Others dressed like they were ready for Fallujah walked across lawns that just minutes earlier hosted a kid's summer camp.
The park was mostly empty thanks to social media posts that had been warning Los Angeles about the coming incursion since Sunday.
Activists showed up instead of the regular crowd to laugh at and film la migra and cuss them outta there.
Over 1,600 people detained, citizens and noncitizens alike.
