Such bullshit. Who is doing anything about this??

Sarah Jones & Jason Easley's avatar

Republicans control the federal government, so what do you expect them to do? The American people are going to have to do something about this because no one is going to do it for them.----Jason

Another lie from photo-op Karen. We heard him give his name and who he was. BUT, this administration is not known for telling the truth.

Larry's avatar

This "DON'T TRUST YOUR OWN EYES, EARS AND NOSE" IS SUCH BULLSHIT! And the F'ing "press" better not give us the usual "FALSE EQUIVALENT" crap either. The video clearly shows what happened. Padilla is a Patriot and Noem's is a tokyo rose prostitute.

As a Brit I should like to point out to Mr Vance the irony of a U.S. Senator being arrested in his home state for the egregious offence of trying to ask a federal official a question, just a day after Mr Vance falsely claimed that the residents of the UK have no right to free speech (a lie BTW, we are guaranteed freedom on expression by Article 10 of the European Convention on Human Rights).

It is droll isn't it?

SEDBRN-10:32's avatar

Noem should go home and stick to shooting her animals. Her behavior is horrible, unprofessional, inhumane. She should do something about that plastic face, too.

CatChex's avatar

But her horrible, unprofessional, inhumane behaviors were part of the requirements (prerequisites) for this gig.

And it seems she'll adjust her face, morals (assuming she has any), etc to do what is required for the regime.

Edited to add: there's another Grouch Marx quote that comes up w this regime:

"these are my principles, if you don't like them I have others... "

Can we please send her home? Or send her anywhere else?

Kathryn Ryches's avatar

She SHOULD be sent to Guantanamo, and on the other side of the bars than the ones she was near in El Salvador!

Yvette's avatar

Only 98 Senators to go. Do the spineless blobs believe Trump will stop with Dems? Ha haha. Read your history.

SEDBRN-10:32's avatar

Send (exile) her to Syria or Russia. Good places for her kind of moral rot.

CatChex's avatar

Maybe she can talk to Tulsi, see what could be arranged?

Larry's avatar

Any mother f'ers that talk about "respect" should be flogged. Respect is a two way street. THIS IS NOT A KINGDOM WHERE YOU CURTSY TO NOEM OR HER ILK! THIS IS THE F'ING UNITED STATES OF AMERICA! WE THE PEOPLE ARE IN CHARGE!

Senator Padilla was let into the room by the same goons that took out of the room then to the ground; THEY ALL KNEW WHO HE WAS.

Kiwiwriter47's avatar

So....Joseph Goebbels is the PR man for DHS.

Sheri Pasanen's avatar

He goes by Stephen Goebbels now and is a top advisor to the occupant in the Whitehouse

CatChex's avatar

Patron Saint, along with Roy Cohn

Michael's avatar

Along with John Gotti

CatChex's avatar

Gotti is a lesser entity who was served by Cohn but idolized by tRump -

"tough guy"

Michael's avatar

Yes I agree and am happy you know of the Cohn background. A singularly unpleasant individual.

Kathryn Ryches's avatar

Not just A video, but multiple videos from multiple sources, including one from Fox ALL showing Senator Padilla to be respectful AND declaring who he is. Homeland (in)security lies just like the rest of the DonOLD dictatorship departments lie.

CatChex's avatar

Kathryn - I realize I could probably find the Fox video that does show further angles and more detail - but do you have a link?

I just waded through the YouTube propaganda video (all 11minutes and 11seconds of it) multiple times w friends who are skilled in dissecting messaging, propaganda - bit fried on the the videos.

But, yes, she lies.

And the spin, propaganda skills here are amazing (if one can take a miles out step to look at just WTF played out here) -

Appreciate your note here.

CatChex's avatar

Oh, they have amazing, incredible DARVO skills there! (Deny, Attack, Reverse Victim and Offender)

"of course" in their propagandist view and positioning: Padilla was the "offender"

It's bullshit, horseshit - any way it's presented.

Michael's avatar

CatChex, Padilla played them and the dummies fell for it. He was brilliant.

CatChex's avatar

He didn't "play them".... seriously - expand further or just stop with this?

Yeah, his "plan" was to ask a question and then get taken down by whatever goons were in Noem's cohort?

If you have 'inside information': do tell....

Michael's avatar

Don't mind the bark but go easier on the snark…pleez? 🙏

Michael's avatar

Well CatChex why don't you "do tell' where you get your insider info? Cmon get with the program. Padilla is not some naive indignant bozo blundering into a presser. He's a politician for crissakes-- he knew exactly what he was doing and how he would respond to the various ways they might react. Don't think he was an idiot. He waved a red cape and the bull went right for the bait. Miller is probably yelling at Noem right now for letting Padilla steal the narrative.

She’s a lying puppy killing”photo-op” “Barbie wannabe………. Except she’s got brown hair….. she dresses up like she’s such hot shit. I’d tag her as a narcissist

As a woman I’m disgusted by Homeland Barbie and as an American I’m ready to protest this Trump fiasco!

Larry's avatar

Do NOT put down on Barbie, Noem's is a tokyo rose prostitute.

Indeed Helen. We have been for sometime now.

James Parker's avatar

I’ve always hated the name Homeland Security. I think it sounds way too much like the third reich. Now they’re literally living up to the name. Shameful!

Michael's avatar

It is an odd name isn't it? Makes one believe in reincarnation

Krista Allen's avatar

The equally frightening part was ICE Barbie saying that the troops would remain until the city was “liberated from the Socialist leadership” right before he was detained! She must be impeached and convicted!!

Donald W Hawken's avatar

Noem should be taken out to a gravel pit and given the same treatment as she gave her dog. Gestapo tactics at best / when will it end?

Terrie's avatar

He clearly stated who he was and why he was there. The Secretary is an ugly liar facist.
