I've launched an investigation into the contracting and approval process for the demolition of the White House—and whether the corporate donors funding Trump's ballroom are seeking favors with the Administration.

Opinion | New documentary shows Andrew Young's singular role in MLK's circle
The 93-year-old Young had a role in Martin Luther King Jr.'s inner circle that was different than everybody else’s, but no less necessary.

"As violence erupted, his charging document said, he told other rioters who were attacking law enforcement officers, 'Kill ’em! Kill ’em! Kill ’em!'

He then raised his arms in celebration after breaching the Capitol in a face mask... and escaped through a window..."

Peaceful protest is the bedrock of our movement.

Thousands demonstrated exactly that – coming together to demand the release of David Huerta and to call for an end to the cruel, destructive, and indiscriminate ICE raids that are tearing apart our communities.

So, today, the LAPD has released three separate statements:

1.) "We aren't helping ICE with their nonsense."

2.) "Today's protests were peaceful and Angelenos exercised their First Amendment rights without incident."

3.) "Marines? WTF - why?"
The LAPD Chief has weighed in on Marines being deployed.

Basically: Why is this necessary?

Deploying the military on U.S. soil as law enforcement against Americans was on page 555 of Project 2025.

So don’t say “I didn’t vote for this,” because you did.

This isn’t a response.
This was always their plan.

The police don’t protect people. The police protect power. That’s why we didn’t want to militarize them.

No government or group has the right to seize land because they claim god gave it to them.

I subscribe to Jewish values of peace and tolerance, not the violent theocratic imperialism of far-right Israeli settlers masquerading as Judaism.

Enforce a two-state solution.
