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

This is an elected Senator of the United States, who has violated no laws.

Horrific. This is a US Senator in his homestate, manhandled forced to the ground and handcuffed because a member of the Trump administration is too scared to answer real questions.

Sobering and stark reminder of why the United States should never allow any one individual* or company to become a linchpin of our national security.
*Especially when that someone is a drug-addled narcissist who supports Nazis and White Nationalists abroad

The US now has no vaccine advisory committee, no CDC director, and an anti-vaxxer as Health Secretary.

This is from April but don't forget what Angelenos — and all of us — are protesting: secret police from DHS, who refuse to identify themselves, are lying to teachers in order to seize and interrogate *first grade children* at school.
We're protesting against a modern day gestepo.

Stand back.
Rescind this illegal, and immoral order. The absurdity of threatening the people of the United States with their own military—
Act like the Commander-in-Chief.
If you want to be president, at least try to play the part.
Fake it, if nothing else.
Stand back—
We’ll clean up your mess.

The amount of illegal drugs Elon Musk was carrying and using while working for Donald Trump would get most people thrown in jail for years. #MAGA claims it wants to end special treatment — but that's bullshit. There will be no consequences. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/u...

Pam Bondi just said it's fine for Qatar to bribe Donald Trump w/ a $400 million plane. Who did Pam Bondi work for?
Qatar!
You know, the chief benefactor & protector of Hamas.
That's right: Paid foreign lobbyist Pam Bondi raked in $100K *per month* working for Qatar.
But hey, THE HILLARY EMAILS!
