LA Dodgers cave to pressure and donate $1M in aid to migrant families day after ICE dust-up

The Los Angeles Dodgers caved to community pressure and committed $1 million in financial aid to migrant families impacted by ICE raids in the city.

The MLB franchise announced the donation Friday — just one day after the reigning World Series Champs crowed about turning ICE agents away from the stadium parking lot over bogus claims of an attempted gameday immigration bust.

“What’s happening in Los Angeles has reverberated among thousands upon thousands of people, and we have heard the calls for us to take a leading role on behalf of those affected,” Stan Kasten, President and CEO of the Dodgers, said in a release.

“We believe that by committing resources and taking action, we will continue to support and uplift the communities of Greater Los Angeles,” Kasten concluded.

On Thursday, the Dodgers made political relations hay for their Los Angeles fans by announcing they had sent ICE agents attempting to enter the stadium packing.

“This morning, ICE agents came to Dodger Stadium and requested permission to access the parking lots. THey were denied entry to the ground by the organization. Tonight’s game will be played as scheduled,” the team announced in a viral post on X.

The Department of Homeland Security was quick to pushback against the organization’s grandstanding.

“This had nothing to do with the Dodgers. CBP vehicles were in the stadium parking lot very briefly, unrelated to any operation or enforcement,” the agency wrote on X.

Fiery protests engulfed parts of Los Angeles in recent weeks with conflagrations growing out of control of local LAPD spurring President Donald Trump to call in the California National Guard.

Despite the full-throated resistance to deportations in cities like Los Angeles and New York, Trump has promised to “expand efforts to detain and deport Illegal Aliens” — promising to flood cities with a wave of new ICE officers.

The Dodgers, who won last year’s World Series, visited the White House earlier this year, where the president charmed stars Mookie Betts, Clayton Kershaw, and Shohei Ohtani, who Trump said “looks like a movie star.”
