California Senator Alex Padilla [D-CA] is being criticized for causing a disruption during a press conference by Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem in Los Angles. Senate Majority Whip Republican John Barrasso [R-WY] says Padilla should have been on Capitol Hill, not interrupting the press conference where he was handcuffed and forcibly removed. Barrasso told reporters Padilla has wrong to travel to Los Angeles —quote—“ to go try to make a spectacle of himself.” Observers say Democrats are planning to increase their protests this weekend, hoping to use any reaction-or overreaction-from law enforcement as ammuntion against President Trump’s enforcement of immigration laws.
