Mike Levin

I'm not going to read a bunch of those.

I'll just read one from Representative Mike Levin.

Not to be confused with Mark Levin, the conservative Jewish commentator on Fox News.

So Representative Mike Levin said, "...no American city and no American's life is a small price to pay." Trump was given every opportunity to clarify or walk back his comments that Iran should take out San Diego and Los Angeles.

Instead, he doubled down and said them again.

Spare me the excuses that this was just a joke or that he didn't mean it because he didn't take it back and he said it again.

For updated information, please to continue to follow OC Fire Authority on X. Tonight, there will be s- uh, eight speakers with a brief time for questions at the end.

Today's speakers in order are Orange County Fire Authority Fire Chief T.J. McGovern, Orange County Sheriff's Department Captain Justin Chevalier, Orange County Board Supervisor and OCFA Board Director Katrina Foley, San Clemente Mayor Rick Lefler, San Juan Capistrano Mayor John Campbell, 74th District State Assemblywoman Lori Davies, [audience applauding] Congressman Mike Levin, and Senator Strickland.

With that, I'll turn it over to Chief McGovern.

[audience applauding] Thank you, Captain Barta.

Okay.

So I, s- so Mike said, "The International Criminal Court issued war crime charges on other Russian officials, so I believe they should charge Trump and Musk also.

Slava Ukraini." I mean, a lot of opinions out there, but, you know, can we all agree that one guy shouldn't, uh, one trillionaire shouldn't have the ability to decide who lives and dies-

Well-

If, if you've ever seen the TV series Suits-

Yes

... where Mike-

Yes

And as we mentioned the other day, San Diego is the home to all of these military bases and a huge, huge military contingent.

Here's Mike Levin, the congressman who represents a lot of this in San Diego.

Cut 13, please.

so yesterday in nebraska the president of the united states stood in front of one of his rallies said this about the war in iran and i quote they can take out a city let them take out los angeles or san diego this is a small price to pay end quote now of course by a few hours later his defenders were doing what they always do they say he was joking he was riffing who's really talking about gas prices.

I worked for three United States members of Congress for 15 years.

So for 15 years, I either did immigration casework or I managed immigration caseworkers, and I'm here to tell you that there's nothing that a, quote, "immigration attorney" can do for you for $300 an hour that a staffer in Congressman Mike Levin's office can do for you for free, because there's not a lot to do.

You're either here legally or you're not, and it's pretty easy to demonstrate if you are.

And if you're in the pipeline and you're not getting responses, then you can contact your congressman, whether it's Sarah Jacobs, Mike Levin, Scott Peters, uh, Juan Lara, or Darrell Issa, and say, "Hello, you're my representative.

Uh, I have filed paperwork to be a legitimate, you know, resident," whatever it is, "and I haven't heard back.

And they-- Can I talk to an immigration caseworker?" And there'll be some Lou Penrose in the back of the office that will be able to help you for free.

Yeah.

Mike Levin said yesterday I heard Trump address the U.N. and say to the victor goes the spoils.

I thought about my grandfather who served in World War Two.

Conquest for plunder was the logic of the adversaries that the greatest generation defeated.

But nonetheless, this is absolutely what is needed and it shouldn't just be Democrats that are calling for investigations and transparency.

Congressman Mike Levin, thank you so much for being at the table.

Ravi Agarwal, thank you, as always.

New polling out of Texas shows Democrats have an edge with Latino voters.
