VIDEO EXCERPTS: I want to first put up on the screen this post from Senator Bernie Sanders. [...] Bernie Sanders posted:

"Dr King defeated racist government officials and ended segregation through disciplined nonviolent resistance. [...] Violent protests are counterproductive and play right into Trump's playbook."

[...] We can go to a more moderate [Democrat] like John Fetterman, who posted on X with a picture of a man who -- in these absolutely iconic images that will be indelible in the American mind for many years to come -- is riding on top of a burning police car with the Mexican flag.

Federman says: "I unapologetically stand for free speech, peaceful demonstrations, and immigration... But this is not that. This is anarchy and true chaos. My party loses the moral high ground when we refuse to condemn setting cars on fire, destroying buildings and assaulting law enforcement."

VIDEO EXCERPTS: There was a poll taken a couple of weeks ago: How many Democrats think Gavin Newsome should be the presidential nominee in 2028? It was only 2%.

And then we had another poll in survey monkey and it surveyed 30 polls and what was Gavin's approval rating in 27% favorability.

So I think he felt what did he do about that -- first thing, was say that ICE was cruel and reckless, and it was just going after quotas.

Well, what else are they going to do. Gavin? You guys let in 10,000 a day for four years, every day. 12 million total. So to deport them -- in a good day, they can deport maybe I don't know -- a thousand, maybe 1,500.

If they were having a quota to match, what you guys did -- they'd need 8,000 a day. So they're they're not even going to get near the number that you let in -- "you" being the Democratic Party.

[...] We have all of these state officials who seem to think that Californians are not Americans.

Sorry, Gavin. I lived in this state my whole life. I'm a fifth generation, my allegiance is not to California. It's to the United States. And I pay my taxes to the United States, and I follow federal law [...] They're not yours. And I feel much more comfortable being an American than one of your Californians.

If you want to talk about cruel, Gavin, cruel is what you are doing. Highest gas taxes, highest income tax, among the highest sales tax. 70 billion dollar deficit, some of the worst schools in the nation, half the homeless, fifth of the people under the poverty line. One quarter don't pay their power. I could go on -- that's your state.

So why don't you take care of that rather than grandstanding about illegal aliens that are breaking the law?

And then finally we get to the optics. So Hakeem Jeffries wants to dox ICE, and Karen Bass the mayor who -- when she's not in Ghana, by the way -- she seems to like to see LA burn...
