I’m lucky sufficient to have the ability to entry some websites for this kind of info and opinion. I’ve not seen a pretend arrest of an individual a lot much less of a Senator. It’s getting fascinating and critical when a appointed division head can power an elected official out of a press convention utilizing Federal brokers to bodily take away them, power them to the bottom, handcuff them, after which launch the individual. Additionally, who’s the superior official within the press convention? And doesn’t the FBI know this?

“Sitting U.S. Senators Aren’t Safe from Arrest,” Above the Regulation
For these following the fascism thermometer, we’ve gone from mayors to representatives and have simply now reached senators. Congratulations, everyone!
Senator Alex Padilla confirmed as much as a DHS press convention held by Gestapo Barbie Kristi Noem, a wonderfully cheap factor for a California senator to do whereas Noem defined that the administration intends to “liberate the city from the socialists.” Tenth Modification schmenth modification. For his bother, Noem had a few of her stormtroopers manhandle Padilla, shoving him out of the room after which shoving him on the bottom and handcuffing him.
She handled a sitting U.S. senator little higher than a canine, which I suppose we must always be pleased about contemplating we’re speaking about identified pet assassin Noem.
That video ends with the cosplay cops taking Padilla round a nook, presumably in an effort to keep away from all these media retailers catching what they deliberate to do subsequent. Nonetheless, a second video captures what they did.
This YouTube Clip might be watched right here: Watch The Full Press Briefing With Sec. Kristi Noem That Senator Alex Padilla Was Dragged Out Of (For some motive I cannot load this YouTube so readers can watch right here.)
When the administration determined to gin up some prices in opposition to Consultant McIver, they cited her for forcibly impeding federal officers whereas they tried to make (an unlawful) arrest. Arduous to think about what they will provide you with right here when a U.S. Senator simply reveals up and politely proclaims that he plans to ask questions of a cupboard secretary. However I’m certain this administration has sufficient inventive writing majors within the DOJ to provide you with one thing.
It’s exhausting to imagine anybody really within the FBI would so egregiously violate their oath of workplace. As a former white-collar protection lawyer, I labored with a number of FBI brokers over time and even on the opposite aspect, they all the time exhibited the peak of professionalism.
That is thug conduct and they need to understand it.
OK, now I’m actually incredulous. “FBI Rights”? What the hell is that? That’s not even TRYING to sound official. Simply say, “no recording per 69 USC Section 420,” it’s simply as nonsensical however sounds extra plausible.
Although Noem’s workplace is claiming that is the Secret Service — who REALLY ought to know methods to establish a senator — however perhaps they’re simply randomly making up what to name their bodyguards as of late.
This can be a lie after all as a result of the video reveals him repeatedly figuring out himself and doing nothing remotely threatening. Additionally, if the Secret Service (or FBI or ICE or whoever they actually have been) didn’t know who Padilla was, there was one individual within the room who positively did:
KRISTI F*CKING NOEM!
Alex Padilla is the rating member on the Subcommittee on Immigration, Citizenship, and Border Security… a committee that tends to matter to the cupboard division accountable for Immigration, Citizenship, and Border Security. She may have stopped this from the rostrum at any time.
Count on Grand Moff Noem to announce that the Emperor has dissolved the Senate completely subsequent week.
