GOP strategist Sarah Longwell told MSNBC host Nicolle Wallace: "If GOP Senators don't defend Sen. Padilla’s right to ask questions...they are setting an extraordinarily dangerous precedent for how senators will be treated in this country.” Damned right. Imagine Ted Cruz on his face in handcuffs.

Will Donald Trump be condemning and disowning this alleged assassin? Will MAGA and Fox be asked if they contributed to his ‘radicalization’? Will Dems insist Republicans tone down their rhetoric as the GOP did in reverse after the attempt on Trump’s life (by a Republican)?

Nobody is rioting. Nobody is breaking any laws. These are cops in my city of Las Vegas just assaulting and arresting anyone on Fremont Street who looks at them. This is fascism.

MSNBC reporter in gas mask in Los Angeles: I think it was Sheriffs deploying CS gas, tear gas, pepper spray, and flash bang grenades in large numbers. Mounted units pushing against protesters.., every single gathering I saw today was 100% peaceful

“When they slaughtered Congress, we didn't wake up. When they blamed terrorists and suspended the constitution, we didn't wake up then, either. Nothing changes instantaneously. In a gradually heating bathtub, you'd be boiled to death before you knew it.” —Margaret Atwood, The Handmaid’s Tale

This is a lie. We all saw the video. The Senator clearly identified himself, and he did not "lunge" toward anyone. If these miserable propagandists will lie to you about roughing up a U.S. Senator in a room full of reporters, what won't they lie to you about?

I’m not sure USA has ever faced such a moment. Wholly unprepared to deal with calamity on the world stage. We have a Putin ass-kisser at Sec of State, a drunk at Pentagon and a dipshit asshole sitting in the Oval Office Adderall tweeting. He pulled out of Iran deal, lethal moron.

Sen. Amy Klobuchar dined with Melissa Hortman, a Minnesota lawmaker and decades-long friend, just hours before she and her husband were shot and killed in what authorities are saying was a politically motivated killing. “I wish everyone had known her like we knew her,” Klobuchar told POLITICO.

What's incredible about the pro-Palestine mass awakening is that Zionists have done everything in their power to suppress it. Every major social media platform has been captured by Zionist interests and suppresses pro-Palestine speech, but the raw torrent of righteous anger defies censorship.

🔥 Marco Rubio blasts immigrants while hiding his own family’s story: His grandfather, Pedro Victor García, was caught and ordered deported in 1962 after sneaking back into the U.S. No legal record until 1966. For four years, he likely lived here undocumented—until amnesty saved him. SHAME on YOU!

This hits hard! An L.A. protest in the 1930s, pushing back against illegal immigration raids. During the Great Depression, thousands of Mexican immigrants and their U.S.-born kids were deported. Racism and economic fear drove it then, just like now.
