Good summary here. 😳
By now, we've all seen the video of Senator Alex Padilla (D-CA) being forcibly removed and handcuffed for asking a question during Kristi Noem's press conference.

But what Noem said just moments before the video was taken is "classic authoritarian red-baiting," points out @davidcorn.bsky.social.

I've said it once, and I'll keep saying it as long as I'm governor: If you come for Illinoisans, you have to come through me.

Governor Newsom is absolutely right and every governor in every state should follow his lead.

WATCH: A combat veteran congressman ISN’T STAYING SILENT after Alex Padilla’s arrest by Kristi Noem. He TOOK THE FLOOR OF THE HOUSE and forced everyone to confront the reality: a sitting Senator was removed in cuffs — and something must be done.

Padilla is a consummate politician who, like a lot of us, has been forced to only show intentional, calibrated emotion.

These are real tears that aren't about him, they're about communities, families, and people who are being destroyed.
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.

Newsom: "He's been a stone cold liar about what he said we talked about. He never discussed the National Guard. Period. Full stop. I would love to share with you what he actually talked about. It would send shivers up your spine."

There is the Musk-Trump feud going on right now.

But don't get distracted from the extremely important news about Palantir and the surveillance state.

How Palantir Is Expanding the Surveillance State
If you think the government will only use these tools to track illegal immigrants, think again.

If it was a “personal” and not a “presidential” meeting, why the presidential seal?

It’s surreal how fast the United States has fallen into a dictatorial regime.

Checks and balances are gone, the president disappears innocent people into foreign prison camps, words get banned, and the Overton window shifts at light speed.

I honestly wonder these days when they will come for me.

The stock portfolios of more than two dozen members of Congress outperformed the market in 2024.

This isn't due to luck or skill.

Lawmakers can use privileged information to trade stocks while they’re supposed to be working for you.

Make no mistake, it’s legalized corruption.
