Did Secret Service remove him? NO. Don't let facts get in the way of your argument. Staffers didn't remove him. Don't let facts get in the way of your argument. He tried to be a tough guy And got his ass handed to him Bad look for us liberals.

I never said staff removed him, I said they didn’t intervene, until they were done with the fascist theater in front of the cameras. Then her staff asked to release him & invited him to the previously scheduled meeting with Noem. Not sure where your ‘facts’ are from, but you seem sure of them…

This is a distraction from the real horrible shit going on. It makes us liberals look like a bunch of whiney bitches.

You said that already, and it’s less convincing the second time around. He’s standing up for his constituents & his community. He’s a Chicano son of LA, whose parents were migrants and he’s watching his community be terrorized by masked thugs. Calling her out is not a distraction.

Calling her out is fine, warranted. The way he did it... WEAK.

The theater was Padilla. I agree with him but his method was ill conceived And he looked weak He picked a fight and lost.

He’s a work horse, not a show horse. All senators will be pissed about this, but most lack courage to say it publicly. Authoritarians using violent force on elected leaders looks weak. We’ll see how this unfolds, but he’s doing something genuinely. How are those strongly worded letters working out?

Yes, secret service is Noem’s security detail (as cabinet secretary), that’s the guy pushing Sen. Padilla out. The federal security in the building know him… as he has an office in that building. You seem pretty sure though…
