Your mind is so fucking warped in this rah rah team bullshit Quite the opposite. I watched the videos. It was a performative and non serious act for a senator to take and he knew exactly how security was going to respond.

Sometimes you have to force action and be performative, if that’s the word you want to use.

They were softer in handling violent people on Jan 6 in tactical gear with weapons than a US Senator. They could have seriously hurt the man. Use of force was punitive and frighteningly excessive.

So he knew exactly what reaction a US Senator going out of protocol and unannounced was going to elicit. Maybe you and I react differently to watching him clown out. I don't think that there was anything there particularly noble.

June 13Jun 13 So that's what the rule is now? You can order a United States Senator to be forcibly removed for speaking so long as it's deemed performative? Good to know.

June 13Jun 13 Popular Post You have a shitass little press conference in a small office, by the most performative (and that's really saying something) member of Trump's cabinet. So, if he was disruptive, that might be grounds for removal, maybe. We can't tell what he was doing, at least in any video I have seen. But, to be wrestled to the ground and cuffed, for disrupting a shitass little PC by a shitass little Secretary, is, in itself performative. And authoritarian.

June 13Jun 13 "This all happened very, very quickly," Evans describes. "It was only then, after he was being dragged out of the room that he identified himself as a U.S. senator." Glad the Sen had his staff there to record it all
June 13Jun 13 Even if the meatheads in the room had no idea who the tall guy approaching the front of the room was to ask questions / argue a point, there were several opportunities for someone to step in and attempt to diffuse the situation before he was shoved out of the room, taken to the floor and cuffed. Instead, a bunch of cell phones come out with hopes of filming something violent. I seriously doubt that nobody on the FBI/ICE side in that room knew who Padilla was. If he was breaching any rules/protocols for a press conference in a secure Govt facility, they should have talked to him once they got him outside the room rather than manhandled him to the ground, as he wasn't fighting back. Sickening event, from what was being spewed about liberating the city to how escalated, and the unnecessary force was used... not to mention chilling from a 1st Amendment perspective if indeed this was a situation where nobody in the room genuinely knew who Padilla was or what his intentions were.
June 13Jun 13 This whole thing was staged. Even CNN had a guy on that refuted this entire narrative. Noem was speaking. It wasn't a Q&A period. Dude was being loud and disruptive so they were walking him out. Peaceful, controlled. Then HE pivoted back and tried to get back and push his way through the officers. THAT is when things escalated. It didn't start that way. Then shortly after he and Noem met for 10-15 minutes to clear the air, and even exchanged cell phone numbers.

Color me shocked the Kyle Rittenhouse fan club would both frame this act of tyranny as just a photo op by the senior senator of that state who is responsible for oversight over those agencies.

I don’t give a single fuck what anyone on CNN has to say about it. I watched it, I saw what happened. DHS goons saw an opportunity to flex their authoritarian muscle and show these “Senators” that they can assault them without consequence. That was the performative part. He is literally the ranking member of the subcommittee overseeing Noem. Stop licking their boots
June 13Jun 13 lol, ok. It was so egregious that shortly after he and Noem sat down cordially and exchanged phone numbers.

Military protocols of precedence place Senators above fuckin 4-star generals dude. They're equivalent to the Vice President. Since when is "we didn't know the rule!!!" a fucking excuse for professional soldiers?
