A DHS spokesperson defended the detainment, accusing Sen. Padilla of failing to properly identify himself during Sec. Kristi Noem's press conference. But multiple videos show Padilla clearly identifying himself as a senator.

It is here, now

If a US Senator is not safe from being handcuffed and detained for free speech, none of us are safe.

Sen. Alex Padilla: "If this is how this DHS responds to a senator with a question, I can only imagine what they're doing to farmers, to cooks, to day laborers out in the Los Angeles community and throughout California and throughout the country. We will hold this administration accountable."

What happened to Senator Padilla is not homeland security. This is homeland fascism. This is homeland authoritarianism.

Padilla: “We will hold this administration accountable”

Least surprising breakup since Stephen Miller and his suit made of human skin

Elon vs Donny, like watching Godzilla and Mothra duke it out in claymation. Popcorn, please

Hell yeah! Look at Maine leading the way🔥 Public schools everywhere, take note: Do not comply in advance.

It shouldn’t matter what he says or thinks. The law is the law.

WTF? Trump says he’s not sure if he’d uphold the Constitution, and the media acts like it might be debatable. UM, NO. Doesn’t matter what he thinks! It is the LAW. Full Stop. Somebody better speak up soon and nail his sorry ass.

“Do not mock us.”

This not what democracy looks like

Ya think? Who’d want to come to this ice-infested police state?

Someone please stop him!

Sorry, we promised not to post much today but we had to make a special callout. We forgot to give a proper shoutout to a few places yesterday. Denver and Dallas Fort Worth, you broke records. You were incredible.

I mean, it's not like we didn't point out that a loudmouth drunkard with poor impulse control and a history of abuse wouldn't make a great SECDEF...

So, did JD’s presence kill the pope?

Happy Easter, EVERYONE!! 👇 Seemed. Appropriate. Today. 😎✨

Something has changed. People are fired up and ready to stop the chaos and cruelty. Keep it up.

Bingo. Government’s role is to support and protect the people, not sell stuff for profit. BIG difference.

A three-judge panel from the 4th Circuit Court of Appeals unanimously refused to suspend a judge’s decision to order sworn testimony by Trump administration officials to determine if they complied with her instruction to facilitate Abrego Garcia’s return. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

You saw the video of the ICE agent breaking a car window near the border, right? He wasn’t an ICE agent. He’s the founder of Veterans on Patrol, a FAR-RIGHT MILITIA patrolling the border for migrants. They’re basically deputizing militias to act as federal agents. This is dangerously out of control

The head of our country’s government is in the early stages of consolidating total power. We must of course reject this, but that is not enough. We have to respond by creating a different and better kind of American politics than we have seen before.

Bravo, Harvard! Bravo and thank you!

Republicans are blowing up our future! And those Oligarchs do not need another tax cut! Corey Booker

Corey Booker has given Democrats much more than a roadmap. He’s given us hope.

It’s up to us now. Organize, resist, make good trouble!

Senator Booker broke Senator Thurmond’s record for the longest speech on the Senate floor. Thurmond used his time to stand in the way of progress. Booker is using his to stand for it. This is powerful. This is the America we’re fighting for. This is our moral moment & we must all answer the call.

Corey Booker did his part. Now they rest of us need to get in good trouble too. On April 5 there will be protests happening nationwide.

Now the torch has been passed…to us. All of us. Will we rise to the occasion? We better rise to this challenge. Thank you, Senator Booker for holding up the light.

What the actual fuck:

They are disappearing people off the streets They are disappearing people off the streets They are disappearing people off the streets They are disappearing people off the streets They are disappearing people off the streets

Actually, quite flattering.

Remember when we were a democracy and a respected voice for good? I miss those days.
