Immigration judges are alarmed by ICE grabbing immigrants at courthouses. By the way, immigrants can request to appear in court via Zoom. All immigration attorneys should request this. Stop allowing immigrants to be grabbed at courthouses #ImmigrationLaw m.youtube.com/watch?v=HWx9...

The mainstream media are ignoring the growing opposition to the Trump administration's policies. Why? A Harvard study found that once 3.5% of the population became engaged in sustained and non-violent campaigns of resistance, change has always happened www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Why do protestors fly foreign flags, according to experts: "the flags are not intended to signal allegiance to any foreign government but rather to signal solidarity with immigrants from those places." www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

@therickwilson.bsky.social spells it out. This is how dictators behave. If they treat a sitting U.S. Senator like this, they can treat anybody like this. Unacceptable and an outrage www.youtube.com/watch?v=cEqM...

This is the Administration that sought charges against a sitting Member of Congress for conduct that seems a whole lot less than what it is doing to a sitting Senator for no apparent reason. This on its face looks like an illegal seizure under the Fourth Amendment.

Here is Senator Alex Padilla's entire full statement after being detained by Donald Trump and Kristi Noem's Department of Homeland Security. Like he said, if they're doing this to a sitting Senator, imagine what they're doing to other people. Unconscionable.

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.”

MAGA cultists will love seeing a Latino senator thrown to the ground and handcuffed at a Kristi Noem press conference. But decent people will be appalled. Decent people need to make their voices heard. Now.

This is so disturbing. The senior Senator from CA was thrown out of DHS Noem's press conference. I saw him being pushed out of the room but it was posted he was thrown to the ground. This is dictatorial and must be stopped.
