This Chilean woman is a legal resident of the US, not a tourist. It was a fuckup by NYPD alone. She was knocked over while brown by people fleeing a crime scene. The police did not leave the scene with daughter alone on street. There will likely be a suit. www.cnnchile.com/mundo/le-peg...

Also not coincidental that women judges and representatives are also singled out to be charged first. "Let the women be silent"

I don’t know how else to explain this…if you’re cheering for someone else’s rights to be taken away, you’re cheering for your own to disappear too. This isn’t cake. You don’t get more by refusing to share. Either everyone has rights, or no one really does. Thats it. It’s simple.

Dear US trans ppl, I’m a historian & interested in Queer, science & art history. As a result I’ve studied the rise of fascism & its impact on Queer ppl. One of the features that comes up is that so many people couldn’t believe it was happening, didnt believe it would happen to them or…

I called both of my US senators to condemn what happened to Senator Padilla and to say that as their constituent, I expect them to defend the office of the Senate, to defend their fellow Senator and to remember that we are not a country that bows to a king. Here’s the number: 202-224-3121

"The Trump administration's eagerness to deploy the military in an American city is a major warning sign for our democracy," Wisconsin AG Josh Kaul said. "This is not normal, and it must not become normalized. The judiciary should stop this."

After he was handcuffed and pushed to the ground for trying to ask questions of Sec. Noem, @padilla.senate.gov said he and others have been trying to get DHS answers on immigration for weeks He isn't alone. Reported on this trend for @propublica.org in April www.propublica.org/article/trum...

Not taking anything away from Senator Padilla because he was treated atrociously But I JUST want to remind everyone that the Congresswoman LaMonica McIver, a Black woman, was just indicted for just asking questions at an ICE detention center in her state Keep that same energy of support for her

So they mean to tell us that Kristi Noem, the US Secretary of Homeland Security, has no idea who Senator Padilla, the ranking member of the Senate Judiciary Committee's Subcommittee on Immigration, Citizenship, and Border Safety is? Like seriously??

Wisconsin’s State Capitol is filled this afternoon to honor Supreme Court Chief Justice Ann Walsh Bradley, one of the great jurists in the history of Wisconsin and the nation. The first woman to join the court by election (as opposed to appointment) her decades of service transformed the judiciary.

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.

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.

Weird how Kristi Noem didn’t recognize Sen. Padilla?! It was just 4 months ago he publicly opposed her. Oh ya…and all this! Committee on the Judiciary • Subcommittee on Criminal Justice and Counterterrorism • Subcommittee on Immigration, Citizenship, and Border Safety (Chairman)

Senator Padilla was driven violently to his knees–as if made to kneel before the authority of the executive–because the administration called his questions “disrespectful”. This should offend not just the other 99 Senators. It should offend the conscience of this country.

As the videotapes clearly show, Noem is lying. Padilla is clearly identifying himself as a senator before he he is thrown to the ground and handcuffed. www.mediaite.com/media/news/p...
