The law doesn’t apply to the LAPD. Maybe @governor.ca.gov should declare an emergency and rectify their lawlessness

Newsom's press office on the Padilla incident: “DIDN'T IDENTIFY HIMSELF!? It’s the FIRST THING out of his mouth in the video. You’ve detained a mayor. A judge. A union leader. Now a U.S. Senator. You’ve deployed Marines on U.S. soil. If a President did this abroad, we'd have a word for it: DICTATOR.

Sent it to my Rep. and Sens.

Don't let them lie to you about Senator Padilla. DHS is claiming the agents DID NOT KNOW he was a senator. He CLEARLY says (BEFORE he is tackled and cuffed) "I am Senator Alex Padilla and I have a question for the secretary."

Boebert: What we’re seeing in LA is an insurrection Pritzker: You don’t know understand what insurrection is. It is outrageous that you are asking that when you are the one condoning the pardoning of people that attacked police.

These devils got to go and I hope they waited them out. Come up here and get me. FUCK ICE 🧊

SCHATZ: "This is the stuff of dictatorships. He identified himself. That should be enough."

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed."  -Dwight D. Eisenhower, 1953

“What Senator Alex Padilla did today was political theater.” --Kristi Noem, the Head of Costuming, Hair, and Makeup at Political Theater

EVERYBODY… GET IN THE STREETS ON SATURDAY!!! NO KINGS!!! NO EXCUSES!!! ALSO, DEMOCRATS… SHUT THE FUCK UP ABOUT “ NO LEADERSHIP” & OTHER STUPID COMPLAINTS. YOU’RE WRONG! SHUT UP & SHOW UP!!!!! IT’S ALL ON US!!!

In a statement, Frost notes an important detail to Alex Padilla, a sitting U.S. senator, being assaulted by federal agents today: “They did it in broad daylight. Imagine what they're doing behind closed doors to migrant men, women, and children. “This isn’t America. This is fascism.”

This is absolutely insane, and criminal. Everyone, especially a Senator representing the state, has a right to speak out. The fact that the agents felt protected in acting this way says everything. We’re quickly traversing a dangerous path

Please for the love of God we need our independent wonderful media folks to call it what it is do we can organize better...it's a civil war. Also Phang rocks.

This weekend, Trump will roll tanks through DC to boost his ego. We’re launching a movement to stop him. The Save America Movement starts today. And we’ve got a message to America's soldiers, sailors, airmen and Marines. #SaveAmericaMovement www.youtube.com/watch?v=jKvU...

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

ROFL, valid question!🤣🌮 Trump is 7 times in the flight logs, MAGA is denying it all!🤥 Epstein's full flight logs, UNREDACTED: archive.org/details/epst... #Trump #DonaldTrump #Epstein #JeffreyEpstein #Musk #Elon #ElonMusk #EpsteinFiles #TrumpPedoFiles #EpsteinIsland #EpsteinFlightLogs #TrumpIsARapist

He really needs vocal restraints

"Please continue peacefully protesting": Sen. Padilla after forced removal from DHS presser

Imagine that - Donald Trump treating troops as if they were suckers and losers.

Kristi Noem must resign. She has deported a four year old with cancer, detained a U.S. marshal, and arrested two members of Congress. She’s lost the confidence of the American people. ICE must stop terrorizing our communities.

Manhandling a sitting US Senator is just the latest in a series of authoritarian moves by this Administration…Silencing your opposition from even asking a question. They do this shit because they think they can get away with it. Be mad. Be outraged. Demand accountability.

Sen. Alex Padilla: "If this is how this DHS responds to a senator with a question, I can only imagine what they're doing to farmers, to cooks, to day laborers out in the Los Angeles community and throughout California and throughout the country. We will hold this administration accountable."

Greetings! I’m at the DoubleTree Hotel in Whittier, CA (in Los Angeles county). Protesters against federal detention raids say that officials have been staying here though I have not independently confirmed. Hundreds outside, chanting “kick them out.” It is EXTREMELY loud.

I've said it before and I'll say it again... It's always the right wingers who partake in such atrocities

It is literally going to take smoke rising from the stacks of giant ovens in concentration camps for some people to realize things have gone awry, but even then many won't care, or think "well, they probably deserved it."

Sen. Alex Padilla just got forcibly removed from Kristi Noem’s presser—for daring to ask real questions? Outrageous. This is what GOP “freedom” looks like: silencing truth. Padilla showed guts. Noem showed cowardice. I'm pissed? Are you?

Capitol Police seal off Speaker Johnson's office from angry lawmakers

Resign now, Kristi Noem.

I recently gave my first major political speech of this campaign season to retire Lauren Boebert. Like, share, follow, pitch in if you can. LET'S GO!!

In the past week, a union leader has been arrested, a U.S. Rep charged with a crime, a U.S. Senator violently handcuffed, and reporters shot with rubber bullets and detained. There is no ambiguity. This is a regime operating as an authoritarian. Americans who believe in liberty must oppose it.

Gavin Newsom We will keep fighting on behalf of all our people. If some of us can be snatched off the streets without a warrant, based only on suspicion or skin color, then none of us are safe. Authoritarian regimes begin by targeting people who are least able to defend themselves.

Booker: He was made to kneel before the authority of the executive… They treated a member of the United States senate violently after he identified himself, dragged him out of a room, threw him upon the ground, and put him in handcuffs

Today they have crossed a deep red line. We, the people, must hold the president and his appointees accountable for this outrageous abuse against American liberty.

"[Troops] have told friends and family members they are deeply unhappy about the assignment and worry their only meaningful role will be as pawns in a political battle they do not want to join." www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

"You go out to eat at 5? You must be old!" I go out to eat at 5 because I want to get a table in under an hour. And I'm old.

Kristi Noem should resign in disgrace.
