Big-City Mayors

Seven billion of that went to the crisis. That just was not sustainable. I tried my best to explain to DC over and over again and they just didn’t hear it.

The Trump administration secured the border, and because of that, you’re not seeing the thousands of people coming in, and it has been a real relief for our city.

Now children from working class families will have a spot in after school programs where they can learn and, most importantly, where they can thrive.

Ozzy Osbourne was a man of multitudes: larger-than-life, yet honestly human.

I’m very clear, always have been clear – stop the revolving door system. Go after the dangerous migrants and asylum seekers who are here.

I am extremely angry that we have a custom border patrol officer that is in the hospital because a person that should have not been on our street was on our street.

You know how outraged I am because of Andrew’s bail reform laws on how we have this revolving door criminal justice system.

We, again, call upon them to do the right thing and end the militarization once and for all.

There was never a need for the military to deploy against civilians in Los Angeles.

The women and men of the California National Guard deserve more than to continue serving as puppets in Trump and Stephen Miller’s performative political theater.

Well, I will heap praise on the administration for the first six months in Los Angeles with the fires.

Well, I am just hoping that this reign of terror ends. I’m hoping that the military leaves because they were never needed here to begin with.

Well, I will keep praise on the administration for the first six months in Los Angeles with the fires. If you ask me, is there anything that they have done good in terms of immigration, I don’t know. I don’t think so.

Let me just tell you that the people that make that trek, many of whom walk from Central America and even South America up to our border, risk their lives. I don’t believe that all of these people are sitting at home dreaming of coming to…

I don’t think so. I think they should stay.

Just this morning I stood with veterans, families of active duty officers, and business leaders to show the impact of this unnecessary, unprecedented, and unconstitutional assault on our city.

This is another win for Los Angeles but this is also a win for those serving this country in uniform.

The hearts of Angelenos are with all of the victims impacted this morning — a full investigation into what happened is underway.

I’m sorry, I don’t think you have a right to have a mask and snatch people off the street.

Let me tell you, we have a Los Angeles Police Department that has to deal with crime in this city every single day, and they’re not masked, they stay here.

Los Angeles is a city of immigrants — 3.8 million people and about 50% of our population is Latino. So when the raids started, fear spread.

We will redirect city funds from corporate supermarkets to city-owned grocery stores whose mission is to lower prices, not price gouging.

I'm sorry, no, we're doing a national search, and he is certainly open to apply.

No, no, I don't think that that's a problem at all. Our interim fire chief has 40 years of experience.
