ICE Strikes Out at Dodger Stadium

"Denied Entry"

“Dozens of federal ICE agents were seen near Dodger Stadium in what appeared to be a staging area, June 19, 2025, in Los Angeles. KABC”

On Twitter, the Los Angeles Dodgers wrote: “This morning, ICE agents came to Dodger Stadium and requested permission to access the parking lots. They were denied entry to the grounds by the organization. Tonight’s game will be played as scheduled.”

• “The defending World Series champs reportedly have plans to announce a sweeping new initiative to assist immigrant communities impacted by recent ICE raids. One of their star players, Kiké Hernández, released a statement this week to show his support. “I am saddened and infuriated by what’s happening in our country and our city," the statement reads. "I cannot stand to see our community being violated, profiled, abused, and ripped apart. All people deserve to be treated with respect, dignity, and human rights.” - NBC News, June 19, 2025.

• “It is unclear what operation the federal agents were carrying out or whether anyone in the area was arrested. Images of the government vehicles immediately played out on social media and fueled speculation about their activities. The agents declined to say why they were at the stadium when asked by a Times reporter.” - L.A. Times, June 19, 2025.

Otherwise, a slow news day because the courts are closed…federal holidy…Juneteenth!
