Reuters: JUDGE ORDERS CALIFORNIA NATIONAL GUARD RETURNED TO GOVERNOR GAVIN NEWSOM'S CONTROL - COURT RULING

I honestly think it’s time for some Dems to start dropping f-bombs. On national television. Let’s start acting like the crisis this is

NEWSOM: "It's a vulgar display. It's the kind of thing you see with Kim Jong Un, Putin, dictators that are weak… How weak do you have to be to commandeer the military for your birthday?“

Newsom: "He's been a stone cold liar about what he said we talked about. He never discussed the National Guard. Period. Full stop. I would love to share with you what he actually talked about. It would send shivers up your spine."

A message to the puppy killler: See you in The Hague. They won’t let you have a hair dryer or make-up, Barbie. It’s going to be very unpleasant for you. This situation is temporary. The felon won’t be in power forever. He is obviously not well. You will answer for what you’re doing.

People have complained about no one standing up, and now that Newsom is, they attack him. I understand his flaws, but we need to coalesce behind someone on the frontline. We need to unite, and he's our best option right now.

🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️

Kristi Noem must resign. She has deported a four year old with cancer, detained a U.S. marshal, and arrested two members of Congress. She’s lost the confidence of the American people. ICE must stop terrorizing our communities.

Mike Johnson can’t tell the difference between peaceful protestors or a violent mob who chants ‘hang Mike Pence.’ Mike is blind, dead and dumb just like every other maga. He belongs.

Just so we're all clear: It's not a coincidence that the first senator they've used physical force against is Sen. Alex Padilla, a Latino man representing California.

The Pentagon went from a 4-star General to a Fox News drunk in a suit. Every department’s been hijacked by clowns and cronies. American democracy isn’t just in danger—it’s bleeding out. And it’ll take decades to clean up this wreckage.

Same here.

OOPS: Attorney for Proud Boys in their lawsuit against DOJ may not be allowed to practice law because of a prior felony conviction he appears not to have disclosed, according to the magistrate judge handling the case. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

HAPPENING NOW: A federal judge is set to hold a hearing on Governor Gavin Newsom’s request for a temporary restraining order that would bar the Trump administration’s use of the state national guard amid protests against immigration raids in LA. Hearing starting now before Judge Breyer 🧵⬇️

His KARMA for PUSHING LIES: 1. Mike Lindell gets served with yet another lawsuit as he arrives at trial 2. The pillow executive told the jury that he was $10 million in debt because of his election crusade. He said he had lost over $50 million. #MOG8 www.rawstory.com/mike-lindell...

I love Dan Rather. He recently gave Fox News a new slogan. Fox News: "For those that CAN'T handle the truth." Nicely played sir.

WTAF? I just turned on the TV for the first time today and the puppy killing witch has had my senator dragged out of a presser in handcuffs for asking a question?! What is happening?!!!

This is absolutely insane, and criminal. Everyone, especially a Senator representing the state, has a right to speak out. The fact that the agents felt protected in acting this way says everything. We’re quickly traversing a dangerous path

Reminder that seven Democratic senators voted to confirm Kristi Noem and six Dem senators declined to vote either way. She was confirmed, 59-34. The good faith experiment is clearly over, and we need the Democratic senators who didn't stand against her nomination to be loud as hell right now.

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.

As a four-decade veteran of the daily journalism business, let me tell you: Every competent political reporter in this country knows that Trump is trying to establish a dictatorship. The industry's shame is that so few journalists will say so, and the ones who do lose their jobs.

Right now there are more U.S. troops deployed to Los Angeles than there are to Syria and Iraq combined.

Sen. Murphy: “They say that he didn’t identify who he was. Watch the video, he clearly states, ‘I am Senator Alex Padilla.’ They’re going to spin this, but I’m begging my Republican colleagues, don’t let them do it.”

BREAKING: Senator Padilla after being thrown to ground and cuffed: “If this is how this administration responds to a senator with a question, if this is how the department of homeland security responds to a senator with a question, you can only imagine what they're doing to farmworkers..."

I am ashamed of this country. We are supposed to be a melting pot of cultures. Celebrating eachother and our differences. I am sick to my stomach.

Unlike what Kristi Noem has said on @FoxNews , @padilla.senate.gov identified himself and stated the purpose of his presence BEFORE he was forcibly removed from a Noem presser youtu.be/3Cv-TtudBPQ?...

Kennedy is genuinely evil.

Sen. Alex Padilla was just removed from Kristi Noem's press conference in Los Angeles (video: Bill Melugin/Fox News)

Fuck the puppy killer and the curling iron she rode in on

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

Padilla: “We will hold this administration accountable”

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.”

I'm on my way to the Senate floor to talk about the assault on my colleague, Senator Alex Padilla. This is a horrifying moment in our nation’s history.

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.

Wow. California Sen. Alex Padilla is wrestled and detained by federal officers after showing up to DHS Sec. Kristi Noem's press conference in LA. (video from Bill Melugin of Fox News)

BREAKING: Donald Trump set to cave again on policy, now saying that he will reconsider immigration enforcement that targets farm workers and hotel workers. Did someone say TACO Thursday?
