Several elected officials voiced outrage Thursday after footage circulated showing Sen. Alex Padilla (D-CA) being forcibly removed from a press briefing given by Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem in Los Angeles.
Republican Sen. Lisa Murkowski (AK) had a reaction similar to that of a number of Democrats, saying the display of force was “shocking at every level.”
Other GOP leaders assigned blame to Padilla himself, including Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), who spoke with host Blake Burman on tonight’s program.
