With my mom and several thousand others at the No Kings rally in Dana Pointāthe biggest political rally Iāve ever seen in South OC. On Flag Day and the Armyās 250th, we remember: the flag stands for freedom, not one man. We honor those who serveābut we donāt serve kings. #NoKings #NoKingsProtest
Our country was built on immigrants who came to America in search of a better life for their children. DACA has given thousands of children the chance of the American dream.
