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.

If you know about the very hands-on forced expulsion of U.S. Senator Alex Padilla from DHS press conference you need to watch it. Sure, a knucklehead standing on a burning car is a scary image. This is MUCH scarier. www.youtube.com/watch?v=R42v...

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."

Senator Alex Padilla is one of the most decent people I know.

This is outrageous, dictatorial, and shameful.

Trump and his shock troops are out of control.

This must end now.
Senator Padilla is forcibly shoved out of Kristi Noem's press briefing:

"I'm Senator Alex Padilla. I have questions for the Secretary"

VP Harris may not have been the perfect candidate, but she was a good candidate, and she was a million times better than these scumbags that are now in charge of the U.S. government. Make that infinite times better....

It’s not illegal for a United States Senator to go to a public press conference and ask questions about your constituents safety.

It's our job.

The state of California needs to arrest the DHS "security" forces for assault and every Democrat in the U.S. Senate needs to sign onto a campaign to impeach Kristi Noem.

Right fucking now.

Seems noteworthy to me that they're admitting that they're sending in the military because of the state government's ideology!!!
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’s staff took this.

A United States Senator was violently thrown to the ground for trying to ask a question at a press conference.

This is happening right now in America.

If this is how they treat Alex Padilla, a United States Senator, how do you think they’ll treat you?

Smashing property is only good for triggering a violent cop response.See how they care more for bricks than people. I could kill someone in the middle of 5th Ave and cops will forget me in 5. Break the wrong window and a cop will kill me. We’ve got to resist with every breath—without violence.

Before heading into work, some quick notes about the military in Los Angeles. After 30+ years of observing civil-military relations in Latin America, let there be no doubt that this is a pivotal moment for the US.

BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schools—told staff they had “parental consent.”

They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.
