DHS defended handcuffing Padilla at Noem’s presser, saying Secret Service believed he was an attacker and accusing the senator of “disrespectful political theater.”
Alex Padilla handcuffed at Noem news conference in LA: DHS defends actions
“If this is how this administration responds to a senator with a question … you can only imagine what they’re doing to farmworkers, to cooks, to day laborers,” Padilla said.

Indiana’s Medicaid budget is on the chopping block and that’s a direct threat to people with disabilities, the staff who support them, and the providers who keep our communities going. This isn’t just numbers it’s lives. Legislators must protect Medicaid funding. #ProtectMedicaid #DisabilityRights

Had my first state party meeting as a Vice Chair! Dispite all the drama with reorg this group came together you can see the passion still kindling. We are a diverse group in a big boat and all perspectives are imporant! We just have to use those differences to our advantage! @indems.bsky.social

It’s so infuriating to watch our country be destroyed bit by bit each day… I pray our country can withstand this and comeback again on the other side of his presidency… it’s absolutely terrifying here. #usa #america #trump #lies #crazytimes

Today, we have more income and wealth inequality than ever before.

But the greed of the oligarchs never stops. 

Now, in order to get huge tax breaks, they want to cut back on Social Security, Medicaid and veterans programs.

Together we can stop them. We must stop them.

Party reorg is always so full of drama and #dems are so good at showing their ass. The loudest ones being keyboard warriors who aren’t actually involved in party politics… it’s rich! People win, people lose… we hold fast, work together, and move forward. Literally the only option! #getonwithit

Tell me you want a primary challenger, without telling me you want a primary challenger… #democrats #dobetter
My YES vote is *not* an endorsement of this deeply flawed CR.

My YES vote is 💯 about refusing to shut our government down.

I refuse to punish working families and plunge millions of Americans into chaos.
 
I will never, ever, ever, ever, ever vote to shut our government down.

Democrats cave, Republicans steamroll. Again. Schumer folded on the CR, and for what? Being a strong Democrat isn’t a bad thing. Standing by our values isn’t a bad thing. Stop negotiating away our power. Hold the damn line. #StandStrong #NoMoreCaving
Schumer indicates Democrats will vote to support Republican bill to keep government open – live
Democratic minority leader condemns Republicans’ funding bill but says a shutdown would give Trump chance to ‘take even much more power’

The far right in America needs to suffer a stunning loss! We need elected Democrats to stop crossing the aisle aka moving right and stand firmly left! GOP went more right and won… We should move more left and defeat them!
BREAKING: The far-right just suffered a stunning loss in Romania as the far-right, Russian backed candidate was barred from running in May's election. Elon Musk denounced the decision. open.substack.com/pub/aaronpar...

Local parties are the true heart of the Democratic Party. For too long local parties in Indiana have been unorganized and lacking good leadership! We have to show up in our locally or up-ballot races stand no chance! Indiana leadership positions are critical! And blue cities can’t be the only focus!

Every single Democrat at the propaganda address should have needed to be escorted out! Rep. Al Green understood the assignment! Pink blazers and bingo paddles are not the vibe as a stand against the fascist regime! Come on Dems do better!

Trump made it clear tonight he and his movement are more dangerous than ever. If you’re angry, scared, fed up-do something. We need you in the fight. Find your local Democratic party. Because if we sit back, they win. The time is now. Let’s go. #GetInvolved #Organize #DefendDemocracy

Nail on the head! Russia could have peace at any moment!
If Russia wants peace, they should end the invasion.

That couldn’t end fast enough… lies…lies…lies… and more lies!

What he said about Social Security payments has been repeatedly debunked - so the question isn’t whether he’s lying about this, the question is why.

What is this a pretext for? He and the GOP have long shown interest in going after Social Security. What are they going to try?

Senator Adam Schiff is spot on.

Under Donald Trump, prices for working families are already increasing, while their retirement accounts are losing value.

Do not allow Trump or his MAGA cronies to convince you otherwise at tonight's address.

Donald Trump just admitted Elon Musk leads DOGE after telling a federal court that Elon Musk does not lead DOGE.

Judge Chutkan, the DOJ lied.
