Afterwards, Sen. Padilla framed what happened in exactly the right way: "If this is how the Department of Homeland Security responds to a senator with a question...I can only imagine what they're doing to farmworkers, to cooks, to day laborers, in Los Angeles & throughout California & the country."

Majorly fucking pissed!

American Judas

Trump isn’t targeting criminals in his mass deportation agenda, he is terrorizing communities, breaking apart families and putting American citizens in harms way. www.nbclosangeles.com/news/local/i...

It's important to remind everyone that what's happening in Los Angeles is a manufactured crisis entirely of Trump's making. Of course people are going to stand up for fundamental rights and due process, and I encourage them to continue doing so peacefully.

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.

Sen. Mark Kelly: "What happened today to Sen. Padilla was outrageous. It was violent. It's a scary thing to see happen in the United States of America...The Trump administration has arrested a mayor, a member of congress, and a labor leader...That is not who we are as a country."

Oopsie, I guess we can’t deport the farm workers. Farmers would then be forced to hire the criminals and murderers that my DHS and ICE agents cannot locate. We will have to make a special dispensation for all the non criminal farm workers so we can plant and harvest our food. JFC.

I want to reup this, and will come back to it. Eugene Vindman (fired by DOD bc he upheld the Constitution) asked Whiskey Pete some basic questions about China and Russia. Whiskey Pete ... apparently doesn't know what Kaliningrad is. Kaliningrad is ... sort of important.

Not at all surprised by this shameful and disgusting lack of preparedness by this administration. .

Now they are claiming they thought Padilla was an attacker. This is what little children do when caught…they lie. I say BULL FUCKING SHIT! How will Johnson respond… youtube.com/shorts/Osg7M...

Here is Senator Alex Padilla's entire full statement after being detained by Donald Trump and Kristi Noem's Department of Homeland Security. Like he said, if they're doing this to a sitting Senator, imagine what they're doing to other people. Unconscionable.

see what you need to understand is that they’re coming hard at california bc if they can take us down then it tells the smaller states there’s no point in fighting. we’re the bellwether. that’s why it’s so important we stop this shit NOW.

My son lives in Downtown LA. He says there are no serious protests or evidence of violence. The scariest thing for he and his roommates is the massive ICE and LAPD presence that looks like “occupation.”

Thousands of New Yorkers march in lower Manhattan calling for ICE out of New York. Starting at Foley Square and organized by PSL, the masses have flooded the streets and are moving west. This demo is permitted but even if it wasn’t, it would be far too large for NYPD to contain.

Remember when Republicans were losing their minds about leaving Afghans who worked with US troops to be killed by the Taliban? Well, Trump has revoked their asylum and is planning to send them back to be murdered.
