Senator Padilla gives a speech about being handcuffed for asking a question, and calls Trump a tyrant. "I will not stand silent while this administration continues to militarize our cities, trample over our Constitution, and ignore our laws."

This will undoubtedly result in additional blocks and dumbass lists, but I have to disagree with the idea that this isn't America. This is exactly what America has been since 1776. The only realization is that this part of America is affecting more than just Black America. A🧵 1/8

Forcefully stopping and detaining my constituent and interrogating him about which hospital he was born in solely because he’s Latino is blatant racism. ICE's racial profiling is terrorizing communities, targeting U.S. citizens and making us less safe. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/15/u...

Despite the current administration, it’s important to remember that there are still many dedicated people in the federal government who are doing good things, including trying to save the pangolin.

WE HAVE QUESTIONS… This is a kidnapping. No uniform, no badge, civilian car. Who are they? ICE? Sanctioned bounty hunters? Either way, they’re grabbing people without warrants. How often is this happening, and why aren’t more people talking about it? Congress?

There is no greater moral failure than stealing a child from their family. It is evil, full stop. Those who carry it out have forfeited their humanity. I’m hoping karma is real & she exacts her full vengeance upon them. We are called to act. Show up. Speak out. Call every single day.

RFK Jr now going after ALL vaccines. He argues that the Covid vaccine (which he’s restricted) was the only one that had proper safety testing. He says they “dysregulate the immune system”. Get your boosters. He’s setting the stage for “natural immunity” where only “the strong survive” Eugenics.

The House narrowly approved legislation Thursday to eliminate the next two years of federal funding for public media outlets. The measure passed 214 to 212, with two Republican lawmakers switching their votes from "no" to "yes" to push it over the finish line.

RFK Jr.'s decision to fire all members of ACIP puts our public health at risk and I won’t stand for it. That's why I’m proud to lead 86 of my colleagues in demanding that he reinstate the fired 17 members to ACIP to uphold his oath to the American people.

Universities ARE healthcare “first time when all three missions of academic medicine – research, education and patient care – are threatened. The U.S. will probably face a physician shortage, stagnation in scientific progress +a decline in the quality of medical care." www.cnn.com/2025/06/11/h...

I’m hearing rumors that thousands of people are calling the ICE tip line to report little green men and other aliens from outer space. That’s not why ICE set up this number, so you should absolutely NOT call that tip line to report those types of aliens. 👽 I repeat—do NOT call the below number! ☎️

Making the whole thing a street party is exactly the right approach. Keep the violence and escalation on the side of the state. Images of repression, undermine governmental legitimacy. And the more sympathetic that protesters look, the harder it is to paint them as dangerous.

Obligatory reminder that Sen. Cassidy, in explaining his decision to vote to confirm RFK Jr., stated that RFK Jr. had committed that "[i]f confirmed, he will maintain the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices without changes." This... is a change.

An outspoken vaccine conspiracy theorist just fired every last member of CDC's vaccine advisory committee. RFK Jr. is paving the way to reshape vaccine policy based not on decades of science, but on his own unhinged fanaticism. This is unprecedented, and unthinkably dangerous.
