It's as if the plastic puppy murderer doesn't respect our Constitution or something

If you’re looking to hire someone to write passive-voice headlines professionally, all I can say is NPR Considers Beginning Monetary Payments to USMC Veteran Offering Then His Expertise, Sources Say

This is pretty rich, since lunging at Padilla without identifyig themselves is EXACTLY was Noem’s DHS goon did to the Senator: “…‘I would say that people need to identify themselves before they start lunging at people, during press conferences,’ Noem told reporters as she left the press conference.”

This fascist regime in the WH is disgusting and a dictatorial, not a democratic republic. They need to be removed

it seems noteworthy that he was also assaulted and handcuffed

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.

Padilla was *forcibly assaulted outside in the hallway once noem's gestapo thought they were free from the cameras

Caution: the GOP needs to create a crisis and put an anti-left spin to it or it could  be eviscerated in the midterms. Don't fall into the trap. Stay calm, peaceful, and determined. The fight will be won at the election box, and then this garbage can be reversed. Organize. Galvanize. Stay safe.

These Nazis are using every trick in the book... Rise up!

“A statement released by his office said Padilla "tried to ask the Secretary [Kristi Noem] 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."

Horrific. We must stop Trump

He was assaulted, forced onto the ground and handcuffed... For asking questions.

Show them throwing him to the ground. Show them kneeling on him. Show them handcuffing him. Don't hide it behind links. Show your readers.

Arrested and battered by the Trump administration*

Nah, you see? This is why I cannot fund your organization. Call it what it actually was: A sitting US Senator was bullied out of a room and wrongfully handcuffed for trying to get the DHS secretary to answer some real questions.

One in the same. Military takeover and arresting lawmakers.

Kristi Noem saw a Hispanic man — not a sitting US Senator. Claiming on Fox that Sen. Padilla charged the podium shouting and represented a threat is just plain bullshit. Noem must resign.

He was assaulted, you complicit shits fuck you

Fascism weekend off to an early start.

Who removed him, NPR? A ghost?

I'm so tired of your sane-washing of this absolute coup, this unconstitutional overthrow of our government, and you just bend the knee. You've already lost your funding, now you alienate the people that actually would continue to fund you.

NPR deserves to be defunded. Y’all have been normalizing this behavior since day 1 of this current administration. You no longer have my support.

Removed = Handcuffed and assaulted. Wonder if he was a old white guy with a red hat would that have happened? 🤔

Stop placating your headlines for this regime. They’re going to destroy public media no matter how much you pussyfoot around their fascism. WAKE UP!

Throw to the ground and arrested for asking a question at a press conference. This is an objectively bad headline as you left out key details that could easily fit and would clarify how bad this really is

"removed" C'mon, @npr.org If you're ever going to be for the Public again, now is the time. Stop using their framing. Padilla was forcibly removed.

ASSAULTED! He CLEARLY identified himself! Are you asking us to believe Noem doesn’t know who he is?!

REMOVED???? FFS people! This is why the country is asleep!! Y’all keep sane washing this nightmare!!!! 😡

They'll brutally and senselessly detain an identified senator, and they'll do it to anyone and everyone. If the left allows it.

Removed?!? He was manhandled, assaulted and thrown to the ground!

We care about the constitution. We care about the law. We care about due process. We do not care for authoritarian, masked police forces kidnapping people off the streets or US Senators being violently silenced for speaking out or asking questions. This is called patriotism.

Cool story when it's the people in this administration that are driving us towards third-world status.

Sen. Padilla was a victim of aggravated battery by Noem’s Brownshirts

she thinks she answers only to Donald Trump gonna love it when she finds out

Does everyone understand what's happening before our eyes? It's happening right now, and we must stop it. By any means possible. These people want to rule us, not govern us. It's unacceptable and will be prevented if we all stand up to them and bankrupt them.

Please fix your teaser. He was dragged and and handcuffed. Either you need to learn to write better or you are intentionally softening your des of what happened? Which is it? Can you let me know before my next monthly pledge is auto-paid?

wtf is happening!? I mean I KNOW what is happening - but wtf?! Is this Merca?!🤔 Yall better wake the fuck up! This is some gestapo shit!

"Ooh, kicking and screaming, please."

not removed, thrown to the ground and handcuffed

Nazi's doing nazi things.

@governor.ca.gov @gavinnewsom.bsky.social needs to deploy the local and state police and national guard to protect Californians and the press against Trump's imperial stormtroopers! California authorities are facing, AND FIRING ON, the wrong side! Call Newsom's office! 9164452841 Senator Padilla

"removed" wow

The US Senate has to subpoena Secretary Noem to answer for these actions today.

Mark my words: Trump's Magastapo agents will one day, sooner than later, accidentally or not, kill someone. This gangster regime will indeed get its "revolution", but it may not turn out the way they think.

Funny how @schumer.senate.gov only seems to become concerned about manhandling when it happens to a fellow Senator. And what’s he going to do about it? Action speaks louder than words.

Hey @npr.org - when you're finished with Portnoy puff pieces and softballing that goose-stepper Trish McLaughlin, could you go back to calling a spade a spade?

respectfully "removed" doesn't describe what happened.

Because he asked her a question she didn't like.😭😭😭

😠

Can't believe we have people working for trump acting as the Gestapo and this is the America we live in today.

Fu Npr! soft little headlines lately because you’re bowing to the self imposed king?! Disgraceful!

Exactly why they are bootlicking

Yikes 😱

The Big Beautiful Bill will result in unchecked Authoritarian power. This will happen in every State The BBB$ increases detention 365% annually from $3.4B to $45 billion through Sept 2029, increases transportation & removal 500% from $721 million to $14.4 billion! Allots $46.6 billion for barriers

These fucks better figure out that they are not Trumps soldiers.

Better headline: Sen. Alex Padilla, D-Calif., was forcibly and illegally removed from a Homeland Security press conference in Los Angeles on Thursday.

Seriously? I'm officially laughing in the face of anyone who calls the US the "land of the free" as of now.

When Secretary Barbie says Padilla questioning her was "disrespectful political theatre", you have to respect her statement. She would know "disrespectful political theatre", as that's her modus operandi.

We aren't supposed to ask questions anymore. Trump is flushing democracy down his gold-plated toilet.

He wasn’t removed he was assaulted handcuffed and detained fix that

x.com/DavidNorthWS...

I am "removing" myself from your feed for this BS reporting

Shouldn't you say "forcibly removed" like all the other sane-washing legacy media?

This demands an apology and reprimand of these agents!! They are supposed to protect our senators not handcuff them! 😡

Noem is very scared when she doesn't have gun.

Knotseas!!! Ghastly. The time for a general strike is yesterday. We have the military walking around our suburbs in desert camo, sheepishly coming into Starbucks to get chai lattes. It’s preposterous in the extreme.

"Nice Polite Republicans"

He was cuffed and forced to the ground. THAT'S your headline, NPR. It's getting mighty hard for me to justify giving your organization money.

Removed?????? Come on NPR

The law enforcement officers are nothing but a bunch of cowardly toadies for the trump kakistocracy. They look like complete fools.

Tell the truth! My duly elected US Senator was pushed to the ground and handcuffed just for trying to ask a question. They will never support you! Stop bending the knee and do your jobs!

Nazi tactics

"removed"

This nation's HEROES are deported daily by the fascist federal government. The time for tolerance of autocracy ends now. 'It's all BS coming from Trump': Sen. Padilla gets emotional after forcible ejection from DHS presser: www.msnbc.com/the-beat-wit...

🚨PLEASE ASK FOR PEACE IN THE STREETS🚨 Trump WANTS to send in ALL the troops! Help spread the word!

This is completely unacceptable. Questioning federal actions, especially against one's constituents, is the job of every elected official. For context: Sen Alex Padilla was last elected in a landslide victory receiving > 61% of the vote (6,621,616 total) & 70% (1,670,306 total) in LA County.

kristi lynn noem is responsible for assaults on a sitting mayor and members of the united states congress. #ImpeachKristiNoem MAKE members of congress kill or vote on impeachment articles. SHOW their constituents who supports lawlessness and fascism!

Noam is the new Gerbels

That's bullshit, time to kick ass!

REMOVED?! What is wrong with you what are you doing who are you serving foh

“Senator Padilla wanted to ask a question, as the Sec. of Homeland Security was discussing a military takeover of a freely elected Government, and was then assaulted by the dog killing witches staff.” Corrected it for you.

He was also removed from the land of not being kneeled on and cuffed by the FBI.

So no first amendment anymore. Right. That’s super.

Illegitimacy. Rigged Election. Manufactured Events. Tech/Data overreach and abuse. Lies by omission/half truths; conspiracy theory = critical thinking theory. Good & Bad Actors in every sector. Protect judges/public servants. Redo/Reverse/Renew Be Kind, empathy is not a sin. People & Planet

Late to the game, NPR. He was assaulted for attending a public press conference. Don’t get it twisted.

"removed" You're all such pathetic cowards.

@npr.org the word you were looking for was forcibly. He was forcibly removed.
