Now we see if they listen.

This poor fucking man is tap dancing so hard his feet are smoking. Baby, it's just a fucking career. They grow back. -signed, man who got fired for telling the truth.

Yup!

I'm starting to think that @democrats.senate.gov and @housedemocrats.bsky.social are not the opposition, but are in fact the mother fucking collaborators! What in the holy fuck do you think you are doing? Business as usual should not be fucking happening right now! Please get your shit together.

Don't presidents usually head right to the situation room when international crisises are about to light off? Like two possible nuclear Powers about to go to war? Has anybody else wondering if the whole Trump deploying the National Guard to LA is just a cover for Israel?

This is an assault on a United States Senator by a reckless, lawless Administration with no respect for the Constitution. We will not be silent. We will not be intimidated. We stand with Senator Padilla.

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.

We are marching to Senator Thune’s office. There must be accountability for the detainment of a Senator. This is not normal.

The US was not involved because the US no longer has power on the world stage. To have power, you have to participate. When you stop participating, others will fill the void. Once again, the Trump administration and all who voted for him have failed.

@smith.senate.gov shutdown the government.

Holy shit! That was a verbal murder. NYC if you vote for Cuomo you deserve everything you get.

Well, yeah. It's the LAPD that's all they know for how to do.

That's the right attitude. Fuck, each and every ICE agents. ICE agents need to be doxxed and driven out of their communities.

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

What in the fuck are you doing NYC? Please pull your heads out of your asses.

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.

IMPORTANT: Before the fascist attack on Senator Alex Padilla, Kristi Noem said that her gestapo in California were staying to "liberate the city socialist and the burdensome leadership that this governor and that this mayor have placed on this country." Don't let that slide by.

Does she mean the leadership the people of California and LA (respectively) have voted for? Because fuck any and all Trumpettes.

If none of us are safe, then we have nothing to lose. Time to get a little wild folks. We should drive MAGA supporters into the dirt.

Why wouldn't they feel protected @adamkinzinger.substack.com ? Even if there are consequences, Trump will abuse the pardon.

If this doesn't get you involved, what will?

A group of us have arrived on the Senate floor to challenge our colleagues - on both sides of the aside - to rise to this moment and jointly condemn what has happened to Sen. Padilla. Yes we still need to collect the full facts, but this appears to be a defining moment for the country.

Thank you @padilla.senate.gov Seriously, thank you. From a brand new Californian. I'm sorry you went through that today, but mad respect.

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

Do something @booker.senate.gov ! You have the fucking power. Shut the government down.

Good.

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.

@schumer.senate.gov thanks for doing absolutely nothing. You own this, too.

This is the Trump administration. Liars and thieves, the whole lot.

If a Trump employee is talking, they're lying.

Yup, if the rules only apply to me then I'm going to stop following the rules.

Because Iran knows TACO. Trump walked away from nuclear negotiations. Trump owns this completely.

This indictment is a joke. An awful horrible joke.

Jessica: Gavin Newsom is speaking for a majority of Americans. There was a new Quinnipiac poll: Donald Trump -12 approval, -11 on immigration, -16 on deportation. He has taken his best issue and decimated it

the zomentum is unreal. 37% for zohran and 31% for cuomo in JUST THE FIRST ROUND

"no friends" I feel attacked.

@politico.com WTF? You should be embarrassed.

People in L.A. are waving Mexican flags—not because they hate America, but because the Trump regime is disrespecting immigrants. The Mexican flag has become a symbol of resistance and solidarity in these times. Make no mistake: they love what this country stands for—just not what it’s turning into.
