"Iranian officials had dismissed the warning signs that Israel was planning to strike nuclear sites as propaganda and a media frenzy aimed at pressuring Tehran into concessions in talks" www.nytimes.com/live/2025/06...

Let’s not forget that Alex Padilla is the first ever Latino to represent California in the United States Senate.

Yes. According to Army protocol, congressional staff are VIP Code 5, with a rank equivalent to a two-star general/admiral. Members of Congress are of course significantly higher. I have never seen USCP, FPS, or any other federal LEO treat any Member with anywhere near this disrespect and violence.

Senator Alex Padilla was fulfilling his Congressional oversight duties when he was thrown to the ground and handcuffed. This is no isolated instance; this is a pattern of behavior by the Trump administration. There is simply no justification for this abuse of authority.

In the past week, a union leader has been arrested, a U.S. Rep charged with a crime, a U.S. Senator violently handcuffed, and reporters shot with rubber bullets and detained. There is no ambiguity. This is a regime operating as an authoritarian. Americans who believe in liberty must oppose it.

ICE agents saw a brown man speak up at Kristi Noem's conference and went to work. Didn't matter that it was Senator Padilla. Anyone who thinks their wealth, power and privilege will protect them, just see this video.

Senator Alex Padilla is a good man and principled public servant. The brazen and aggressive manhandling of Senator Padilla by the Trump administration is a sickening disgrace. Anyone who assaulted the Senator should be held accountable. No one is above the law.

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.”

Immediately before Senator Padilla is manhandled and removed from the press conference, Noem says, "We are staying here to liberate this city from the socialist and the burdensome leadership." When people tell you who they are, believe them.

Kennedy appointed Robert Malone to the top vaccine advisory committee ACIP. Malone is one click off Andrew Wakefield. He thinks the covid shots killed 17 million and that bird flu vaccines are a deep state psyop.

Andrew Cuomo is afraid he'll lose, so his donors want you to fear me. His SuperPAC just sent out a mailer that artificially lengthened and darkened my beard. This is blatant Islamophobia—the kind of racism that explains why MAGA billionaires support his campaign.

Trump just admitted that his mass deportations are bad for farmers and the economy, and crucially, also admitted that workers who are getting deported are "almost impossible to replace." That's a massive repudiation of MAGA ideology:

What happened here is an example of the Trump administration “de-documenting” people. His workers all had work permits; it seems they were Nicaraguans who entered through CHNV parole. But the Trump admin stripped them of their status then rounded them up, making even his supporter mad.

“The logic of revolution often traps revolutionaries: They start out thinking that the task will be swift and easy," @anneapplebaum.bsky.social writes. But "at each obstacle, after each catastrophe, the turn to violence becomes that much swifter, the harsh decisions that much easier."
