I ‘answer to "Hi!" or to any loud cry, Such as "Fry me!" or "Fritter my wig!" To "What-you-may-call-um!" or "What-was-his-name!" But especially "Thing-um-a-jig!”’

For those trying to say the men who attacked Sen #Padilla didn't know who he is or bec he wasn't wearing a Congressional lapel pin or a name tag as an excuse for their actions - #KristiNoem, present in the room, most definitely knows who he is & could have called off her thugs at any time. She didn't

Weak excuse by a bunch of #fascist liars

As Sen Padilla said afterward, if they will treat a US Senator the way they did ON CAMERA, what do you think will happen to anyone else

Padilla's assault & handcuffing is getting all the attention, but what Noem said is perhaps more terrifying.

"We are not going away. We are staying here to liberate the city from the socialists and the burdensome leadership that this governor and that this mayor have placed on this country and what they have tried to insert into the city."

Admitting they're not here for violent criminals, they're here to overthrow our elected officials

A Mexican-American friend who lives here on a Green Card and is the mother of five US citizens, including a US Army Vet and an LAPD officer, just collapsed into my arms crying, saying that she no longer drives on the freeway because she's afraid of being stopped by ICE and kidnapped.

It is so weird to live in Los Angeles right now. It's like the Iraqi information minister meme in reverse.

How people are talking about LA at this moment says a lot about them, how cruel they are, how gullible they are and, if you know the person, how little they actually care about you.

This is an obvious thing to say, but no one who supports Trump cares about anyone who lives here.

It is absolutely essential that the No Kings turnout this weekend—across the country, not just blue states and cities—ensures that a significant number of Republicans decide they are not ready to go past the point of no* return.

At the pace things are moving, Americans won't have another chance to peacefully reset what is acceptable in a democracy IMO.

I just watched Alex Padilla get thrown to the floor and cuffed after trying to ask Noam a question at a presser.

The Senate is meant to be only second to the House of Representatives in power in our system of Democracy. They are fewer, older, and meant to be the wise body of the government, serving longer than presidents, and running less often than reps.

If you're waiting for the sign that things have gone too far, it's passing you by.

America is neither safe nor free.

Josh Marshall: "If the President wants to rule by tackling senators or arresting governors, make him do it. Elected officials owe us that. We should accept it individually ourselves as well, if need be." 👈💯

Karoline Leavitt will be painting her face orange and sporting an ear bandage soon.

Instead of "enjoying" their massive "wealth", billionaires are getting greedier and greedier to a point where the people had enough

They are not heroes or example figures. They do not benefit humanity, they bleed us dry for their own endless greed that will never be satisfied.

Billionaires are parasites and a mistake of society..

Mistakes should be fixed. All of them.
