Padilla: "WE. WILL. HOLD. THIS. ADMINISTRATION. ACCOUNTABLE."

His pauses, not mine.

They better, because we are in deep shit, people. #fascism

MORE:

"I encourage everybody to please peacefully protest."

@GottaLaff Hey, Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries:

WALK OUT OF THE HOUSE AND SENATE IMMEDIATELY and SHUT DOWN THE PEOPLE'S HOUSE!

This attack upon a sitting US Senator CANNOT BE BORNE.

TAKE OFF THE F__KING GLOVES ALREADY and stand up to #PresidentKrasnov and his minions like Noem, Homan, Hegseth, and Stephen Miller!

@jimthewhyguy @GottaLaff it's fucking outrageous that congress is just sitting on their hands. I saw one senator make a statement asking Noem to testify about the occurrence... gotta tell ya, we need more action than "requests to testify" that will obviously be ignored. STOP PRETENDING AS THOUGH THEY PLAY BY THE SAME RULES.
@ianto_jones @GottaLaff I am also certain that Sen. Padilla wouldn't have been granted any more respect if he had been in a suit & tie, or had asked his question in a slightly less loud voice. To these goons, he was a darker-skinned "troublemaker" and they appear to have relished the chance to use excessive force on him.
@jimthewhyguy @GottaLaff wouldn't have made any difference at all.
