Sen. Alex Padilla was forcibly removed from a news conference Thursday morning with Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem. Noem was speaking in Los Angeles about recent ICE operations in the region when Padilla was removed from the room after saying, "You insist on exaggerating." At least two men approached Padilla, a Democrat, near a wall and pushed him through doors near the rear of the room. He can be heard saying, "I am Sen. Alex Padilla and I have questions for the secretary."

Noem had been speaking on California and Los Angeles leadership moments before Padilla was removed. "We're not going away," Noem said just before the disruption. "We are going to liberate the city from the burdensome leadership, mayor and governor."

So...what? Just disappear the leaders and install illegitimate Trump toadies a the point of a gun? Is LA where Trump begins his campaign to become America's Putin?
Or is it more of that "just hyperbole" until the thing happens, at which point, the pivot will be "ok but you made us do it", then "so what", then "ok it's bad but you're worse"?
Think of all the times they told you you were paranoid, then they did exactly what you said they'd do.
Blue state governors had better get it into their heads that this isn't going way if they just keep their heads down. They're going to have to be ready for state-federal confrontation and people are going to have to be ready to flood the streets in protests that shut everything down, else accept rise of fascist dystopia and the end of "elections" in the no longer leader of the "free world".
And remember: MAGAs will troll you with lies about how you're Chicken Little, right until they're dancing over America's grave. Or should I say "Americans' graves"?
