LA Horror show - Pregnant American woman caught up in ICE actions
Independent TV Journalist Jorge Ramos joins Jim Acosta from Los Angeles to discuss Trump's ongoing ICE and CBP roundups. Stick with it, because you won't believe the story at the end when Jorge interviews an American citizen who is nine months pregnant and started having contractions when federal agents knocked her to the ground and detained her for telling them they could not enter private property.
This is not the way America should be behaving on the world stage. This interview is a must watch, so you can see what is really happening with Donald Trump's ridiculous deployment of federal troops to California.

Trump's L.A. Crackdown is The First Battle in Stephen Miller's White Nationalist War on America
The architect behind Trump's cruel, illegal, and hateful abuse of immigrants is Stephen Miller, an avowed racist who now has the reins of power to fulfill his white nationalist vision for America.
This is why author and strategist Rick Wilson refers to Miller as Trump’s Heydrich, the Nazi SS officer who was the principal architect of the Holocaust, and believes he is “truly one of the most evil people in the country.” I invited Rick to discuss the depth of Miller’s hate and map out his end game.

NO KINGS: A Conversation with Indivisible’s Ezra Levin
Those who seek to destroy democracy want us to feel overwhelmed, burnt out, hopeless and alone. Which is why we need each other for strength, camaraderie, and courage. As the Resistance on Andor say, “I have friends everywhere.” As we do too. Friends, fellow countrymen, and brave patriots who want what we do. A country that’s free, fair, just and stable, and leaders who will represent us and fight back. If we can’t find those leaders then we might, however reluctantly, have to become those leaders. Join me and Ezra Levin, as we discuss being part of the active resistance and building an army of pro-democracy warriors starting with No Kings Day on June 14th.

Nine Years of Warning America: A Conversation with Rick Wilson
A special recording from our Talking San Diego event with Rick Wilson. A longtime Republican strategist turned fierce Trump critic, Rick was among the first to sound the alarm on the threat Trump posed to American democracy. For nearly a decade, he’s been relentless in his efforts to expose that threat—most memorably through a sharp, unflinching, and often darkly funny series of political ads that take aim at Trump and his enablers.
