Well, I mean, one side is fighting for the survival of our country and the constitution on which it was founded while the other side is hell bent on turning us into Nazi Germany. But yeah, let’s both sides this shit.
Somebody tell Chris Cillizza that Senator Padilla was doing important work, publicly asking questions of Kristi Noem. She should be questioned when she was announcing their intention to stay in California in order to remove the lawfully elected government.
No, you do not get to normalize and equalize both sides. Watch the tape solicitor doesn’t know what hell he’s talking about but of course CNN is a Trump supporter so there you go.
it's not a secret that these are the moves that get you shut down and removed, not heard.
he had a good message. why couldn't he just wait for the Q&A so that it could have been heard? ugh
Agreed … ´good people on both sides ´ didn’t age well because it was a lie and whitewashed the racism . There isn’t much time for America to step up and quash this evil before you lose your democracy
I have no more tolerance for "both sides" bullshit. The SECOND there's an attempt at equivocation, they've lost the argument and should be rejected immediately
There are not two sides to fascism. Cillizza, like his former employer, CNN, is a disgrace to journalism. CNN tonight talking about TACO's parade as if it was something to admire and not a colossal waste of money that could have gone to veterans, children, homeless...
Typically CNN trying to “both sides” an issue where clearly there is a right and wrong side. My advice: don’t watch CNN and don’t follow any of their insipid personalities on social media. Your life will be better
Likely beyond repair absent a complete restart from the ground up. It used to be a reliable source of actual news, not pedantic rooting for one side or the other. Journalism is now dead at CNN.
Create a scene??? He was trying to ask questions of THE PERSON responsible for the scene!! Aka doing his job!!
FFS... Chris Cillizza is a moron who should probably work for Fox fake News.
And just another example of just how bad CNN has gotten. They just need to turn the cameras and lights off and walk away. You knew it would not take long once Tapper become the face of the network. It told you right there what their direction was ….down the toilet!
Noem was clearly trying to create a scene as well. Can we throw her down on the ground and cuff her as well? There is no law that says that a Senator or anyone else has to be Miss Manners with federal officials especially when those officials are engaging in heavy-handed "law enforcement" with us.
Misses the point. Until becomes utterly disruptive, any citizen & especially a Senator, can attend press conference or public meeting & ask questions. Any citizen who utterly disrupts, can be asked to leave. But don't throw down & handcuff as soon as they arrive announcing they are a US Senator
jehartz75: Sen. Alex Padilla is the top Democrat on the Judiciary subcommittee that oversees immigration issues. The very one that has oversight of DHS. This was sending a message.
"Aiming to create a scene" is a part of any politician's job description and is not a crime in itself. At this point every elected official afraid to make a scene should resign.
Since when is someone wanting ‘to create a scene’ justify the handcuffing, etc. That’s defending the indefensible. HE’S A SENATOR! He has a right to ask questions esp of someone who cares 0 about integrity. She knew who he was but didn’t want him to be heard during a pressor that FOX was airing.
...well he did push his way into LEO towards Noem. He didn't lunge as she stated. She lied but he could have stood in one spot as he was within 25 feet of her.
I watched video to see her depiction of lunge and left disappointed in both.
CNN is another Murdoch owned empire as far as I recall, and a mainstream media outlet that is more focused on keeping the current administration off of their backs than speaking out when they see violations of people’s rights and the law. It was also the home of Lou Dobbs once upon a time.
Unfortunately, he did try to push past LEO when he didn't need to.
I hate that Members of Congress (both major parties) focus on clicks and avoid making better laws for We The People.
Chris Cillizza is at the garbage station @cnn.com where fake journalists go to die, just ask that loser @jaketapper.bsky.social how things are going for him. @chriscillizza.bsky.social fuck you asshole🖕
from what i saw, the was not there to create a scene, security knew ho was, let him in, then she set him up to be assaulted for a press op that has backfired on her,
Chris Cillizza has become a destructive voice. This is a time to stand for democracy. If Alex Padilla's skin were white and his last name didn’t end in a vowel,it would of been described as just someone doing their oversight duty? Cillizza you are tone deaf.
Yes that's big fucking no asshole. Anyone should be able to ask a fucking question at a press conference. Hence the question and answer portion of the program. They are lawless fucking animals.
Really @nytimes.com and Chris Cillizza, this is how you want to play the scene with Padilla and Noem right now!
You dumb asses, Padilla was doing your fucking job today! You should be demanding answers from Homeland Security! But you are not doing your job, you have been cowed!
WTH is in that orange Kool aid? Senator Padilla didn't do anything wrong!! Republicans are turning this country into a dictatorship!! You'd have to be blind not to see that!!
Fucking @cnn.com ! They ALL SUCK! There aren't 2 sides to this story. Noem is a NAZI BITCH. She wanted a "Scene"! Senator Padilla was there in good faith, identified himself, and asked a question. #FUCKCNN #FuckNAZINoem #FuckTrump
The good Senator was absolutely attempting to disrupt and derail the series of egregious statements and blatent lies made by Kristi Noem during her press conference. There is nothing "wrong" with the good Senators behavior and they should never have applied their dirty dick beaters to his person.
It’s my training, I also watch FOX. I was an Army PAO for my last 5 years. So we always watched all news on the new mix so we could flip through the channels. Bloomberg, MSNBC, FOX, CNN, Al Jazeera, CSPAN 1,2. CNBC, etc etc. Just like our offices we had subscriptions to AP, NYT, WP, Reuters, local…
Got it. I know there are some here that have to do the same. I'm glad I don't have to do it. I haven't watched MSM since last year's debate. I'm better off without it.
We saw the damn video! I swear, besides project 2025 their play book is 1984 cause they really out here telling us that 2+2=5 and to reject the evidence of our eyes and ears.

Then what would have been the appropriate response?
(dumbass)
Terrorising and kidnapping innocent people, indicting a judge, arresting lawmakers and a CNN journalist tries to pull wrong on both sides crap??
Please fuck the very fuck off Cillizza
Be aware of tactics used by all sides of every battle that gains so many at the top of food chains in America
Podcasters & pundits are getting rich off this show, too!
They post but NEVER engage?
( I ditched them over 10 years ago for that shit and only see that they’re still doing it on the socials)

Not sure how this helps stop DHS/ICE.
Fix the COTUS!!
He's certainly on point.
At least you're doing something worth of your life.
@chriscillizza.bsky.social
I hate that Members of Congress (both major parties) focus on clicks and avoid making better laws for We The People.
It is OK if we saw different video angles.
Please go away with that ridiculous 💩
They're afraid of Trump's ire.
False equivalence
You dumb asses, Padilla was doing your fucking job today! You should be demanding answers from Homeland Security! But you are not doing your job, you have been cowed!
Wow, look, a daily double.
