Padilla: If this is how DHS responds to a senator with a question you can only imagine what they're doing to farm workers, to cooks, to day laborers out in the Los Angeles community and throughout California.

Kristi Noem thinks her lie about Sen. Padilla not identifying himself is a real own when, in fact, her supposed inability to recognize a US Senator--who is the chair of the Senate Judiciary Subcommittee on Immigration, Citizenship & Border Safety--makes her goons' thuggery even more disgraceful.

The Senate bill aims to effectively end all civil rights lawsuits against the federal government except by entities rich enough to potentially pay million/billions in fees. I am not making this up.

They are bootlicking, milquetoast wimps. Cowards. Weak in the face of the very thing they were supposed to fight against. Limp in an authoritarian takeover. Pushovers in the fight against those who plan to harm their communities and families. jesspiper.substack.com/p/the-bigges...

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

""It's really hard to fathom that the guy making my pizza for 25 years is a gangster and a terrorist, and the person who shows up in an unmarked car wearing a mask and body armor comes to take him away is somehow the good guy," said Simon..." www.wnep.com/article/news...

Numerous lawmakers condemned Iran after Israel’s strikes on residential buildings and nuclear sites, which killed nearly 80 people. Posting phrases like “pray for Israel,” characterizing Israel as a victim even as it launched unprompted strikes with no evidence of Iran imminently attacking them.

Spreading kindness like confetti

BoBo is so fucking dumb

It is actually nuts that even when the NYC political establishment was presented with a broad field of talented candidates w/ many ideas, in a time of generational change & anti-corruption, they STILL chose to line up behind scandal-ridden Andrew Cuomo. It’s cowardice.

I would say he follows her around like a puppy dog but so far he has survived.

The most disturbing part of the current moment isn’t just that the right is trying to manifest violence, it’s how visibly and uncontrollably entertained they are by the thought of it. They feed on cruelty and outrage. Starve them with peace and loud truth.

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.

Mark this for the history books: “We’re talking about the president exercising his authority, and the president is of course limited to his authority. That’s the difference between a constitutional government and King George,” said Judge Charles Breyer.

It appears that we are actively and directly involved in a major conflict between Israel and Iran which is rapidly escalating and the only thing we have heard from the admin is an obviously false denial from the Sec of State and a Truth Social post from the president about peace talks.

Sneak peak at all of America tomorrow for “No Kings Day” 🍊🦅🇺🇸

Calls grow for Kristi Noem to resign in the wake of Padilla incident

Netanyahu Calls Iran Strikes Necessary To Prevent War He Just Started

New Yorkers scream out each officer’s lawsuits against them for excessive force and more upon their city, right to their faces while protesting.

In lieu of syrup of Ipecac, simply watch any video of Kristi Noem trying to rationalize her sadism.

#ShitPostingIsRight. #HeresADoozie 🤢

War is bad.

Worth remembering.

The convicted felon president will continue to lie, but when the truth starts to affect his followers, they will abandon him.

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.

House Dems are demanding that Noem testify before Congress after Sen. Padilla was detained by federal agents at her DHS press conference in LA.

Bob Costas nailed it. 🎯

NEW: 12 masked armed men try to enter a homeless shelter without saying who they are. ICE agents park outside an elementary school, sparking fear and a car accident. Local police respond to a call about a possible assault, only to find ICE. Inside one day on LI: theintercept.com/2025/06/13/i...

The part of me that still has some hope for this country believes people, seeing the video of Senator Padilla being assaulted, plus brown communities being terrorized in LA, will be too much for the majority. But, then again, this is America, so...

Reminder of the felons military record:

On 6/12, DHS Sec’y Kristi Noem said “We are staying here to liberate [LA] from the socialists and the burdensome leadership this governor and mayor have placed on this country and this city.” This use of military force to displace a democratically elected is the very definition of a coup.

Stephen Miller is a bitter, spiteful, cold-hearted man — venomous in his words, ruthless in his actions, brimming with seething hatred, malicious intent, and a twisted, sadistic delight in others’ pain.

ICYMI — “LIE!!” Dems heckled Speaker Johnson as he tried to put all the blame on Senator Padilla

If you were to put Liz Truss in a room full of meter high letters spelling out "READ THE ROOM LIZ" I reckon Liz still would not be reading the room.

BREAKING The Islamic Republic of Iran has launched a second round of missiles towards Israel.

😂

Who else nearly fell out of the seat when you heard Cosplay Kristi accuse Sen. Padilla of “political theater”?

A cop doing the right thing? I think that i might need my fainting chair!

No Kings Day: Stand Up Now Or Lose It All I’m protesting Saturday. Because this is it. The line. Not here. Not now. Not ever. Because silence = surrender. Because our kids are watching. So is the world. Because if we don’t show up, who will? See 👇👇👇 open.substack.com/pub/mitchthe...
