I’m horrified by the shootings targeting Minnesota lawmakers, including Senator John Hoffman and State Rep. Melissa Hortman. Violence is never the answer. Never. I'm holding everyone affected by this attack in my heart.

"Republicans insist that when you cut taxes for the wealthy, it’s like feeding Popeye a can of spinach; pumped with this almost magical fuel, the entire economy will burst with new power and vitality. There will be so much economic activity that revenues will surge, and deficits will even go down."

If this is how this administration responds to a Senator with a question, you can only imagine what they're doing to farmworkers, to cooks, and to day laborers throughout California and across the country. We will hold this administration accountable.

By now, we've all seen the video of Senator Alex Padilla (D-CA) being forcibly removed and handcuffed for asking a question during Kristi Noem's press conference. But what Noem said just moments before the video was taken is "classic authoritarian red-baiting," points out @davidcorn.bsky.social.
