Young column: ICE shock troops and appalled voters

August 24, 2025 By John Young

Start with a mounted menace: Masked and armed ICE agents advancing on horseback across a soccer field on Los Angeles’ MacArthur Park. It’s quite a show – scary as hell. Ah, but no one to chase down and manhandle, just frightened summer campers.

Young column: A war president with zero credibility

July 12, 2025 By John Young
