Anti-ICE Organizers Exposed, U.S.–China Deal Reached, Hamas Kills Humanitarians: 6/13/25

The riots in Los Angeles continue, but where is the funding coming from? We talked to an expert journalist to discover who's organizing these violent outbursts. Hamas murders five Palestinian humanitarian workers during an attack on a bus carrying food and medical supplies. The U.S. and China finally reach a new trade agreement. And is a satanic temple really opening up an abortion clinic to coincide with President Trump's birthday? We'll get into all of that and your Quick Hits now. What's up, guys? Welcome to The Wrap-Up, where we break down the biggest stories of the week that you might have missed but need to know. I'm your host, Kasey. Violent riots in Los Angeles over the weekend have put a spotlight on several activist groups believed to be linked to escalating tensions surrounding U.S. immigration enforcement. Demonstrators took to the streets attacking federal officers, setting vehicles ablaze and looting businesses, an outburst allegedly tied to opposition against Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or ICE. Now, three major organizations are under scrutiny. The Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights Los Angeles, also known as CHIRLA, the Party for Socialism and Liberation, and the Service Employees International Union, or SEIU. Journalist and author Tyler O'Neill sat down with PragerU CEO Marissa Strait and had this to say about the groups that could be organizing these riots. CHIRLA is the nonprofit organization that organized the anti-ICE riots in Los Angeles. Is it true that CHIRLA received government funding both from the federal and from the state? So we are paying for an anti-ICE riot? It's not 100% proven that they orchestrated the protests. They've been on the ground organizing protests against ICE for a while. And now that these protests are getting violent, they're saying, we didn't organize this protest. Meanwhile, you know, I've been talking with sources in the government who are saying like, well, we, they won't come out and say to me specifically that they have concrete proof that this group organized it, but they know the people on the ground who are doing these things and they're like, well, this claim doesn't pass muster. You can catch the full interview next Wednesday right here on PragerU. While CHIRLA denies any role in the violence, the group did organize protests ahead of the weekend and publicly rallied support for David Huerta, president of SEIU California, who was arrested Friday morning. Federal authorities say Huerta interfered with a lawful ICE operation, blocking agents from executing a judicial warrant. U.S. Attorney Bill Asale stated that Huerta deliberately obstructed federal officers and would be prosecuted. No one, he said, has the right to assault, obstruct, or interfere with federal agents. SEIU California, however, claims Huerta was merely exercising his First Amendment rights and documenting law enforcement actions. In a follow-up action alert, CHIRLA called for continued protests and urged supporters to stand in solidarity with Huerta, describing his arrest as unjust. We'll continue to follow this developing story as more details emerge. A deadly attack in Gaza has claimed the lives of five humanitarian workers and left several others missing. According to the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, or GHF, a bus carrying more than two dozen aid workers was ambushed by Hamas militants around 10 p.m. local time Wednesday night. The team, made up of local Palestinian staff, was en route to deliver food and medical supplies to civilians near Khan Yunis when the attack occurred. GHF has confirmed that at least five people were killed, with multiple injuries reported and fears remain that some may have been taken hostage. In a statement, the organization condemned the attack as heinous and deliberate, emphasizing that these workers were fathers, sons, and community members risking their lives daily to help others. Reverend Johnny Moore, who leads the GHF, put out a statement saying, quote, These dear people were murdered by Hamas because they just wanted to feed their people. They were not militants. They were humanitarians. The people of Gaza have always been the first victims of Hamas, and if Hamas cannot steal their food, then Hamas wants them to starve. Or be killed. GHF also revealed that Hamas has been issuing threats against their team and those receiving aid in recent days. With little international response, Reverend Moore is now urging global leaders to condemn the assault and hold Hamas accountable. Despite the violence, the foundation says it will continue its mission to deliver aid to the Palestinian people, calling this incident not just an attack on their workers, but an attack on humanity itself. The United States and China have reached a new trade agreement aimed at stabilizing economic relations and reviving a previously stalled truce. The deal, finalized during two days of high-level talks at Lancaster House in London, covers key areas including rare earth exports, tariff levels, and student visas. President Trump announced his approval of the deal Wednesday, highlighting that the U.S. will maintain 55% tariffs on Chinese goods while China will keep its rate at 10%. He also confirmed that China will resume rare earth mineral shipments, critical for electronics and defense industries, and that Chinese students will continue to have access to American universities. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick called it a handshake for a framework, noting that the agreement still needs formal approval from Chinese President Xi Jinping. Chinese officials say they've agreed in principle. U.S. Trade Representative Jameson Greer emphasized enforcement, saying, As long as Donald Trump's the president, there's going to be enforcement. The agreement follows the collapse of a previous deal in Geneva last month amid disputes over tech export controls and student visa restrictions. But after a direct call between Trump and Xi, talks were revived and progress resumed. While not a full resolution, officials say this new framework offers a much-needed reset and a path toward longer-term negotiations between the world's two largest economies. In what many are calling a disturbing mockery of both faith and human life, the Satanic Temple is set to open its third telehealth abortion clinic, intentionally launching it on President Donald Trump's birthday. The new facility in Maine, grotesquely named the president's huge, most beautiful, tremendous satanic abortion clinic, will distribute abortion drugs by mail and guide women through what it calls a religious abortion ritual. This is part of the group's broader effort to frame abortion as a protected religious practice under the banner of Satanism. While the Satanic Temple claims to offer care, women are left to endure chemical abortions alone, without ultrasounds, in-person screenings, or medical follow-ups. Doctors warn this endangers women, with risks including hemorrhaging, infection, and even death. Pro-life advocates say this grotesque blending of abortion and satanic ritual underscores the spiritual battle at the heart of the abortion debate. As more traditional clinics close post-Roe, this dark alternative is spreading, and the need to stand for life, now more than ever, is urgent. Now it's time for Quick Hit. The largest great white shark ever recorded in the Atlantic, a 14-foot giant named Contender, is heading toward a popular U.S. vacation spot in North Carolina after being tagged off the Florida-Georgia coast.
