"You know, it’s very hard. But I think that they will," he added.

Rep. Mike Levin responds to Trump, House Republicans U.S. Rep. Mike Levin responds to Trump's first month of executive actions and support by House Republicans.

Glad to join KPBS to discuss, among other things, the troubling, unconstitutional actions of DOGE—which really stands for Destruction of Government by Elon. I’m fighting back against this blatant power grab.

BREAKING: Stephen Miller—both Trump Administration capo and de facto head of DHS, ICE, and DOJ, has just declared that peaceful protesters are "street terrorists." Under an executive order signed by Trump just days ago, that means he is saying that all protesters in America can be arrested on sight.

“We are home now. We marched from the park to ICE, very peaceful crowd. We were standing around ICE pushed us down, sprayed us with chemical and I was hit in the head with a projectile. This was so unprovoked. People have to know that the Feds are attacking people with NO provocation whatsoever.”

This practice involves physically abusing teenagers to try to turn them heterosexual, including with electric shocks and chemically-induced nausea.
