This is devastating. My heart is with Representative Hortman’s family and loved ones, and I’m praying for Senator Hoffman and his wife. Political violence, of any kind, is never acceptable, and it must not be normalized.

UPDATE: Officials reported that House Speaker-Emerita Hortman and her husband, Mark, were killed. Senator Hoffman and his wife, Yvette, were critically wounded. Our hearts are with all those impacted by yet another horrific act of mass gun violence in America.

Chicago represented for “No Kings”. A peaceful and motivating protest. Police were present but not invasive and I only saw a few National Guard at the train station which we told them they are not needed, or wanted here.

Rep Hortman and I were classmates at the Kennedy School and graduated together in 2018. It took me a moment to realize the person who I remember as deeply service driven and incredibly bright was the victim of last night’s heinous act. She was a bright light and made us all better.

The image of a sitting U.S. Senator being violently thrown to the ground and handcuffed—for simply demanding answers from DHS Secretary Noem at a public press conference—is nothing short of chilling. This is not how a democracy operates.

House Dems are demanding that Noem testify before Congress after Sen. Padilla was detained by federal agents at her DHS press conference in LA.

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.

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."

What we just witnessed is outrageous & should never happen in a democracy: a sitting U.S. Senator was violently thrown to the ground and handcuffed. He was removed from a press conference for challenging the administration’s false & dangerous claims about what is happening in LA. See my statement:

This is extremely disturbing. @padilla.senate.gov was violently removed from a public briefing for asking questions on behalf of the people he represents. Every day that goes by, Donald Trump is making our nation look more and more like a fascist state.

Kristi Noem: "We are not going away. We are staying here to liberate the city from the socialists and the burdensome leadership that this governor and that this mayor have placed on this country and what they have tried to insert into the city." Sen. Alex Padilla is then forcibly removed!

Senator Padilla was violently assaulted for doing his job. If this is how federal agents treat a sitting U.S. Senator peacefully asking questions, how far will they go?
