History will not be kind to Speaker Johnson. Nor should it be.

Listen to this great American. This nation is privileged to have a man of this character in the United States Senate. Thank you @padilla.senate.gov. We stand with you.

I thought I recognized him

Trump Fundraises Off Deploying Military to L.A., Attacks Gavin Newsom Campaign email: “I said send in the troops” meidasnews.com/news/trump-f...

Senator dared to question the Empire, directly, and was met with force. Stormtroopers didn’t hesitate. They grabbed him, cuffed him, dragged him away like a dissident, claiming he “failed to identify himself.” But everyone knew who he was. He was a Senator.

Los Angeles is OCCUPIED

🤨

Ah yes, nothing says “tough guy” like hiding your face behind a mask while bullying unarmed people. But this response gives me life…

Has anyone read the 25th amendment?

We’ve uncovered fraud, waste, and abuse! ICE has now exceeded its congressionally approved budget. ICE is violating the Antideficiency Act by spending beyond Congressional authorization.

substack.com/home/post/p-... I won't say this is true, I have zero way of knowing. But if any of it is true the 2024 election has to ripped apart and investigated. Please read this and think it through. The 7 swing states going the way they did and the 7:00 PM call of the election was stunning!

Powerful statement by Sen. Alex Padilla. Please notice that anytime senators or representatives try to conduct oversight, they’re blocked. In this case, a sitting US senator was tackled to the ground and handcuffed—for asking a question. Where the hell has Chuck Schumer been on this?

I was told both sides are the same

Defending JD Vance’s slavery jokes is a choice

#NotADragQueen

hey, remember when Jared Kushner brought peace to the Middle East? me neither

Just so those of you outside of California know, the little red circle is the area that the National Guard and Marines are there protecting. There’s 5 times more troops then protesters. This is unacceptable

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

Adam Schiff is on the Senator floor right now talking about the "vandals and miscreants" committing "vile acts" in L.A. that he argues should be subdued only by local police rather than the military. Good lead up, senator. You're truly one of the worst elected Dems.

Donald Trump is threatening people who turn up to protest his June 14th birthday party military parade. Turn up, cripple the thing, end Donald Trump's evil regime.

Reminder that seven Democratic senators voted to confirm Kristi Noem and six Dem senators declined to vote either way. She was confirmed, 59-34. The good faith experiment is clearly over, and we need the Democratic senators who didn't stand against her nomination to be loud as hell right now.

GET OLD PEOPLE OUT OF GOVERNMENT

In no universe did Senator Alex Padilla “lunge” at anyone. This administration is full of pathological liars.

We need to lean on each other right now, but don’t forget who warned us. Who fought this from the start. Who tried to keep us out of this authoritarian shitshow. Remember this when it’s time to rebuild.

One thing I know, he is certainly a piece of trash!

Must be the liberal media I hear about.

A group of us have arrived on the Senate floor to challenge our colleagues - on both sides of the aside - to rise to this moment and jointly condemn what has happened to Sen. Padilla. Yes we still need to collect the full facts, but this appears to be a defining moment for the country.

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.

Sen. Alex Padilla, who was just forcibly removed from a DHS press conference, is the ranking member of Judiciary’s subcommittee on immigration, citizenship, and border safety, which has “oversight of federal agencies with citizenship, asylum, refugee, and immigration enforcement responsibilities.”

🤣

Did Trump’s FBI just arrest a sitting U.S. Senator—at a Kristi Noem press conference? 🚨 BREAKING: MSNBC is reporting California Senator Alex Padilla was shoved from the press conference and handcuffed. This isn’t okay. Everyone should be alarmed by this!

Also, the Mellon tax cuts came in the 1920s -- when Andrew Mellon was Secretary of the Treasury under three GOP presidents -- and hey, Tim, how did the economy turn out then?

Sherrill: "Qualified generals keep turning positions down...When will we receive your nomination for the next Chief of Naval Operations?" Hegseth: "With all due respect, I would suggest not believing every headline." Sherrill: "With all due respect, I'd like your nomination."

Sherrill: "You're blowing money on poorly conceived operations and vanity projects...Retrofitting the Qatari jet to serve as Air Force One costs about $400 million. The parade in D.C. will cost $40 million. Your campaign in Yemen cost about a $1 billion. Operations in LA will cost tens of millions."

To the coward, “tomorrow” is ALWAYS a better day to fight than today. Just ask Chuck Schumer. Yea. I said it. Let’s see if “tomorrow” ever actually shows up.

Active duty military to the streets of an American city A military parade to celebrate the President’s birthday An emerging police state with secret police who cover their faces & disappear U.S. residents *Our democracy is in a red zone. We must mobilize to stop this.

Brave soldier

Exactly!!
