A DHS spokesperson defended the detainment, accusing Sen. Padilla of failing to properly identify himself during Sec. Kristi Noem's press conference.
But multiple videos show Padilla clearly identifying himself as a senator.

I just called my reps to Demand the Resignations of Defense Secretary Hegseth and National Security Advisor Waltz — you should too: 5calls.org/issue/pete-h...
(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.
No Spending, No Silence: Economic Blackout on Feb. 28
Corporations felt the pressure when conservatives boycotted DEI. Now, activists are flipping the script. On Feb. 28, wallets close to protest greed & DEI rollbacks. Amazon, Walmart, & Nestlé are next. Will money talk louder than words?
Elon Musk is now presiding over the cabinet meeting. They're not beating the co-president allegations. (And co-president might be putting it charitably for Trump.)
Because Walmart put all the other small businesses out of business in small towns.
"The increase to Musk's wealth since Trump was elected president three months ago is greater than all of the American aid given to Ukraine over the last three years."-- @timothysnyder.bsky.social
Trump Sides With Russia at the UN—Abandons Ukraine
The U.S. voted against condemning Russia’s invasion—joining Hungary, Israel, and Russia. 93 nations backed Ukraine, but Trump refused. His team blames Zelensky, not Putin. If America won’t stand up to Russia, who will? Weakness or betrayal? 👀
Thanks to @joshtpm.bsky.social for posting a link to this piece this weekend -- absolutely worth reading:

Well, I have Tom Cotton, not much of an improvement.
So they removed the black chairman of the Joint Chiefs in the middle of his 4-year tour, without cause, and they're seeking to replace him with a white **retired** Air Force three-star general who lacks the requisite experience as a service chief or combatant commander? Huh, how about that
Let's say their names:
* General CQ Brown, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff: FIRED FOR BEING BLACK
* Admiral Lisa Franchetti, Chief of Naval Operations: FIRED FOR BEING FEMALE
* Admiral Linda Fagan, Coast Guard Commandant: FIRED FOR BEING FEMALE
All replaced by less qualified white guys.
My grocery store sells through their egg allotment by 10 am every day and the cost of a dozen white large eggs has risen from $3.49 to $4.99.
Where are all the people who said they voted for Trump over egg prices (not facism) and all the journalists who wrote those stories with a straight face?
Musk’s “millions of dead people on Social Security” claim falls apart when you check the facts. The SSA pays $1T a year, with a 1% error rate—mostly overpayments to living people. The “fraud” Musk found? Old records of people born pre-1920, not getting payments. But why let facts ruin a viral post?
This is madness. They are in control. They have the power. They just need to use it.
What does he have on them? That they would all roll over and accept even a war in Europe, where America, sides with the aggressor.
Having to beg for funds already approved?!
This is madness!
There ya go

They believed Congress would impeach someone who was bought by a foreigner. I don't think they ever thought someone would be rich enough to manipulate all three branches.
Why is Musk so intent on removing helpful facts to keep people healthy? I'm serious, what is in it for him? Is it the sheer power?
Unfortunately, the far right will cheer for this money to stop helping democracies and people in other countries. They do see it as a waste.
Just wonderful writing on the 60 Minutes piece on President aMusk dismantling of USAID
"The world's richest man cut off aid for the world's poorest people."
Well done.
