Unruly agitator? Padilla isn't the one shoving people around throwing them to the ground.

Padilla isn't the one who has an army of goons randomly shooting people including harmless journalists and random bystanders.

Nope, that would be Noem's violent unruly agitating goons.

The LAPD works for Kristi Noem? I was unaware of that.

Do you think federal agents had any clue who the rando rushing the press conference was. That was a stupid grandstanding maneuver by whoever that politician is.

DP. I feel like you’re missing the point so because they just profiled him as some rando Hispanic man and treated him like this that’s better to you? Also it’s not his fault they’re ignorant.

What makes you think they had any idea what his race is? He wasn’t a credentialed member of the press. They saw an unscheduled and unidentified guy rushing towards the front of the room and put a stop to it. It was the right thing to do.

Any person who has EVER worked in politics or staffed a political person knows that your briefing book includes any important people who you may encounter. The fact that she didn't know who the SENATOR from California was is outrageous and on brand for ICE Barbie and her stupidity.

It's worse. Not only is he the ranking member on the senate subcommittee for immigration and the border, but she testified before him on May 7th. She and her staff know EXACTLY who Padilla is.

The fact that people in the room didn’t recognize him shows just how irrelevant he is.

It shows how clueless Noem and her "Secret Service" protection are.

They're in a federal building and the ranking senator comes into the room - and she has no idea. Her protection is so bad at their job that they don't have any idea either. Bongino is backing them up, because he, former Secret Service, also has no idea.

I don't think this will have the impact the left thinks it will have on the voters they are trying to sway.

Can someone explain to me the "unprecedented" nature of this event?

Right? If you interrupt a cabinet secretary, you will be taken to the ground and handcuffed. Even if you are clearly identified as a senator. Sure. Happens all the time.

What could possibly be unprecedented about that?

I can't tell if you are being facetious or not. If you interrupt an official national security press conference or other official event, you will be forcibly removed from that press conference. Happens all the time in Congress. And I bet Senator Padilla would ask for the removal of protesters asking questions mid-Senate hearing. Its disruptive and disrespectful. I'm just telling you, this isn't the watershed moment you'd like it to be.

This... Can anyone state they are "I am XYZ, a sitting member of The Ministry of Silly Walks," be taken at face value, and allowed to interrupt and hijack an official event?

"I was there peacefully. At one point I had a question, and so I began to ask a question. I was almost immediately forcibly removed from the room. I was forced to the ground, and I was handcuffed. I was not arrested. I was not detained," Padilla said. "If this is how this administration responds to a senator with a question, if this is how the Department of Homeland Security responds to a senator with a question, you can only imagine what they're doing to farm workers, to cooks to day laborers out in the Los Angeles community and throughout California and throughout the country."

Padilla didn't take any questions after first addressing the media Thursday.
https://6abc.com/post/us-sen-alex-padilla-was-forcibly-removed-interrupting-news-conference-homeland-security-secretary-kristi-noem/16733745/

Several posters have lied repeatedly and said Padilla was escorted into the room by law enforcement or federal agents.

That’s not true. He was in the building for a scheduled briefing, and heard Noem was giving a press conference.

He was not escorted by any leo or fed agents into the room where the press conference was being held.

He barged in and interrupted Noem, who took questions after she spoke.

The bolded is a lie. Why are you relying on some sort f what Padilla said that supports your narrative but not the other things he said that don’t?

In a press conference, Padilla said that he was at the federal building in Los Angeles for a scheduled briefing, when he heard that Noem was holding a press conference "a couple of doors down the hall."

So he walked down the hall, told law enforcement he was a senator, walked in, and immediately interrupted Noem.

He’s a performative, unprofessional, actor.

He's a democratically elected sitting US senator.

Incorrect. He was appointed to fill Kamala's seat. No one elected him. Just like Kamala wasn't democratically selected to run for her party's nomination.

Incorrect. He was appointed to fill Harris's seat, then was elected in a special election and the general election.

Keep it up, MAGA. It’s not a good look for your bloated leader. The more he or his stooges threaten public officials, the more the country will turn against at him. Just look at his tanking numbers.

Just look at similar people in history. It did not end well.
