At this rate, I won’t even make Jerry Garcia’s birthday celebration.
Summertime done, come and gone.
My, Oh, My.
Hurting Noem’s feewings is at least a super-felony!
Don’t let it be as a show, do some real damage.
Demand the Senate speak up for him now!
Please, STOP saying that.
He was forced to the FLOOR! 🙄
Every single talking head I've seen on TV today, and every post I've seen online, is saying he was forced to the ground, and it's beyond annoying at this point.
Please, do better!
Of course, what happened to the senator is deplorable, and is the bigger issue, but that should be obvious to everyone.
I wanted to point out something that apparently isn't obvious to most of the press. They look stupid saying "ground" when indoors.
If it were just CNN or just CBS, I probably wouldn't have brought it up, but it's every news outlet I've seen covering this story.
It's a simple problem, with a simple fix. Let's fix it and get back to more important things.
Sen. Alex Padilla WAS asking a question when he was forced to the ground and handcuffed.
So, there's no excuse.
Besides she said she was here to "free us" from our elected officials. That's a coup.
#trump admin clearly has no issue arresting elected officials to stop them from holding the admin accountable

Except there is nothing they can do...if they try, they will get arrested for interfering with a Federal agent conducting an arrest.
If they even whisper encouraging anything other than peaceful protesting...yup, they go to jail.
The bottom line...
It should have been, you need to do it the right way and get documented, from the very start...
It was spelled out clearly today...their best option is to self deport...and the door will be open for them to return.
And it shouldn't be assumed they can come back right away.
I have no animosity against illegal immigrants...I've worked side by side
And I cannot say law-abiding, because they are not.
Border laws have been a jumbled mess for 50 years...
Sadly when for years they were promised, safety and sanctuary...it takes troubling images and time for people to give up on the idea that LA is going to be their home...
I mean -- why isn't HE pressing charges??
You broadcasted him saying he is trying to lower the temperature in the Country. That's a softball opening.
Not 1 reporter called him out on his tar and feather comment.
Very disappointed in all of MSM. WTF is going on?
Do your job! 🇺🇸
No one gets arrested for asking a question or making a statement in a press conference.
You can see the reporting too, certainly.
Sen. Padilla WAS asking a question.
Your little word twist has large consequences for how this incident is understood.
And boy, do you know it!!!!

who was lying/gaslighting media supporting trump instigating violence then illegally deploying military
California authorities are facing, AND FIRING ON, the wrong side!
Call Newsom's office! 9164452841 Senator Padilla
Stated goal to remove convicted felons & gang members was part of how Felon Trump got reelected.
Raids warrantless & not limited to felons/gang members by masked cops in tactical gear. All w/o due process.🌮
Fuck cnn
You scum never actually do any honest reporting because you're too busy licking nazi boots.
He was aggressively manhandled, forced to the ground + HANDCUFFED.
