Statement from Sen. Padilla's office: Padilla "tried to ask the Secretary a question, and was forcibly removed by federal agents, forced to the ground and handcuffed. He is not currently detained, and we are working to get additional information."

If federal police in your local jurisdiction wearing masks and military tactical gear without name tags and badge numbers along with Title 10 soldiers doesn't concern you enough to take action; you're on the wrong side of history, need to study the Constitution, and may be next. This is not a drill.

Start with attending a rally on Saturday in support of 'No Kings'. Then vote to retain the judges that have defended the constitution in your state. This is very important in PA next fall. We must retain the judges that supported our legal rights.

show up at protests. talk to magas u know (we all know someone). email &/or call members of congress, offer specific concerns/requests for action. boycott maga businesses as best u can (there’s an app for that) impact derives from numbers. engage & encourage others to do so.

Russia are you listening? Why are all the Republicans either silent or snarky regarding Senator Padilla's take-down by the FBI and Trump's Secret Service? Because they are complicit dupes in GOPutinism.

WHERE ARE THE OATH-AFFIRMING MILITARY GENERALS??? Are they going to protect the Constitution or facilitate Fascism? RECOGNIZE!! This is how Hitler's Brown Shirts began -- brazen and open assault with the presumption of State backing--to forcibly repress challenge, opposition and dissent.

Kristi Noem admits the official reason for federal troops in LA is a lie. She says they are here to “liberate the city from this socialist and burdensome leadership that this governor and that this mayor have placed …”. Total abuse of power

The sight of that fucking ignorant bitch Noem wearing a baseball cap to look all tough and butch at a press conference where she's supposed to comport herself like a member of a U.S. president's cabinet makes my blood boil. At least that slob Trump wears a suit and tie.

When they say “There’s no recording allowed here” it’s because they NEVER want documentation of what they’re doing. KEEP your phones charged and REMOVE your FaceID and/or Fingerprint ID NOW! Password protected ONLY otherwise anyone can gain access 2 your phone! #NoKingsProtest June 14. #GoodTrouble

Do you think Trump and Noem believe that? They’ll probably use the moment to tell an upcoming rally that Padilla was lucky Noem didn’t shoot him in the face, and then the MAGA crowd will laugh and applaud for an uncomfortable length of time. #RIPcricket

Fuck these violent and fascist FBI agents, first for the arrest and second for trying to suppress the recording of it. We need to prosecute every last one of the fascists. No wimpy Garland AG.

Hey REPUBLICANS... NOW IMAGINE MARG GREENE BEING FACED TO THE FLOOR IN HANDCUFFS ...( AGAINST HER WILL 😉 ). She has done ALOT worse multiple times.! Please look up the word Fascist while looking into a mirror 🪞 ✨️ You are no longer an American 🇺🇸 Christian ✝️ ... you really are NOT!!!

California Gov. Gavin Newsom said in a post on X that 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," he added.

And Mike Johnson says Padilla should be censured. We are failing fast. Until and unless we can get R’s to do their damned jobs, Trump has every ingredient to be king. Call Thune and demand he stand for decency and democracy. 202 224-2321

Don’t you think that the truly frightening thing here is that the officers here are zealots for the leadership. They are evidently weeded out anyone who might balk at doing this dirty work. I wonder how much of the military they have sorted out.

Wtf Fck America your letting this happen. If you don't know your living under not a President but a . Tyrannical DICTATORSHIP Trump has Gestapo doing his bidding. If they can do this to a Senator. What do you think would happen to you. Land of the free no more

Fascists only doing fascist things. As long as they are unopposed. How long will Americans bear this situation? Governments ARE afraid of their people. ALWAYS! Time to fight back and fight hard! Mercilessly. Revolution starts NOW. Thank you for your attention on this matter.

This admin and HLS says we should know who is in the country... How about starting by knowing who is in the room? How would they not know a Senator from the state they are in is sitting in the room they are in? Do you feel safe with this bunch of nitwits in charge?

This is what a fascist dictator does. imho We do not accept this! Attend a rally Saturday to support No KIngs in the USA. And then think about the judicial system in your state. Are there judges who support our constitutional rights? These non-parisan judges must be retained!

There are several statutes regarding the treatment of members in Congress and assault on them or their family members. This is a felony and these individuals need to be prosecuted. If we must wait until Democrats regain control House or Senate, we must remember to investigate and prosecute

Most MAGA and pro Russia commentators on X are driven by bot farms from overseas. Most of them are financed by Russia (and China) to achieve their goal of destroying the whole West from within via seeding discord. Don't fall for it.

Are we great yet, shit stain?? Is this the golden age when four armed men throw an unarmed US senator to the ground, arrest him, for asking a question? I would think the dog killer would love to talk about their policy.
