Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz was testifying before Congress about his state's handling of immigration when he learned Sen. Alex Padilla, D-Calif., was forcibly removed from a Department of Homeland Security news conference Thursday.
The irony, he told the attendees of the Center for American Progress’ “Listening to Lead” event Friday, was in lawmakers grilling him and his colleagues, Govs. Kathy Hochul, D-N.Y. and JB Pritzker, D-Ill., over the “incredible crime of treating people like human beings” as FBI agents tackled a sitting senator to the ground and handcuffed him in Los Angeles.
“I am not prone to hyperbole. I am prone to, like, popping off a little bit. I know that,” Walz said, prefacing his argument that Americans are living in a “dangerous” time. “I believed all along we were marching towards authoritarianism, and people were telling me in December, ‘You know, you're overreacting.’ And I said, “The road to authoritarianism is littered with people telling you you're overreacting.”
Conservatives have made it abundantly clear that they have zero respect for our Constitution. They are traitors to the United States and enemies of the American people.
It is past time that we start treating them as such.
There goes his Chance at a Democratic Presidential Run! They'll NEVER let someone who BADMOUTHS their Strategy to Run!

He is right at this rate the dems might lose the 2024 elections!

Hrm?
Well?
All quiet all of a sudden eh. Put up or shut up, Waltz. You are a political whore or you're not. Are you following Biden's example here or not.Its people like Waltz who lost us the last election. You cant run a pro-genocide campaign from the left and expect to win.
It's time to start putting your state police to work finding more terrorists.
