I've been devoting a bunch of my time lately to building out a training program @Ninety_West.

As a part of that process, I created this fun little guide to respectfully & thoughtfully pitching stories to journalists. Take a look -- hope it's helpful!

Hi, this is Meg Barnette, Brad's wife.

While escorting a defendant out of immigration court at 26 Federal Plaza, Brad was taken by masked agents and detained by ICE.

This is still developing, and our team is monitoring the situation closely.

[Aaron Rupar @atrupar]

This is well stated. Mike Lee will forever be associated in my mind with his unbelievably cruel and stupid tweets about the Hortman assassination. He is a disgrace to the Senate and Utah.

A direct hit on four buildings in Ramat Gan. @UnitedHatzalah volunteers are searching for missing people

[Daniel Goldman @danielsgoldman]

This is outrageous.

On what basis is DHS arresting a United States Senator trying to ask questions at a press conference?

You aren’t breaking the law when you conduct constitutional oversight or ask questions of the agency head who is arresting lawfully present immigrants.

[Tim Miller @Timodc]

1. Finally the energy that is called for from @AlexPadilla4CA.

2. Who do these goons think they are? This is a press conference in a free country. It’s not a police state yet. Get your hands off our elected officials.

[Gavin Newsom @GavinNewsom]

If they can handcuff a U.S. Senator for asking a question, imagine what they will do to you.

[Alan He @alanhe]

Murkowski on Padilla:

“I've seen that one clip. It's horrible. It is shocking at every level. It's not the America I know."

[Kyle Clark @KyleClark]

Covered countless press conferences in 20+ yrs in journalism. I've seen critics, including elected officials, show up to question/confront speakers. I've never seen anything like this in response.

[Adrian Carrasquillo @Carrasquillo]

🚨I just received FULL VIDEO from inside Noem presser showing @SenAlexPadilla manhandled, pushed, and shoved to the ground and handcuffed. Outrageous.

[Ronald Brownstein @RonBrownstein]

Just the latest evidence that the Trump administration views blue states & cities not as legitimate partners in governing but as hostile territory to be subdued-literally in this case (& in the integration of Ntl Guard & soon Marines into immigration enforcement on city streets)

[Daniella Diaz @DaniellaMicaela]

Statement from Padilla's office on the incident in LA:

“Senator Padilla is currently in Los Angeles exercising his duty to perform Congressional oversight of the federal government’s operations in Los Angeles and across California. He was in the federal building to receive a briefing with General Guillot and was listening to Secretary Noem’s press conference. He tried to ask the Secretary a question, and was forcibly removed by federal agents, forced to the ground and handcuffed. He is not currently detained, and we are working to get additional information.”

[Burgess Everett @burgessev]

Schiff calls Padilla’s treatment at DHS presser “disgraceful”

“Alex Padilla had every right to go in that room and get answers”

“Every senator that works in this Capitol should be offended by this and outraged by this”

[Acyn @Acyn]

Disturbing scene of Senator Alex Padilla being handcuffed

[Jesse Rodriguez @JesseRodriguez]

In video obtained by @jacobsoboroff, agents cuff @SenAlexPadilla on the floor outside Secy. Noem news conference

[Kenneth P. Vogel @kenvogel]

SCOOP: Weeks before Trump pardoned Paul Walczak, his mother, Elizabeth Fago, attended a $1M/head "candlelight dinner" with Trump for MAGA Inc.

Walczak's pardon application emphasized Fago's financial support for Trump & her connection to a plot to publicize Ashley Biden's diary.

[Alexander C. Kaufman @AlexCKaufman]

A striking and heartbreaking detail about Sarah Miligrim, one of the Israeli embassy staffers assassinated last night at a Jewish museum event in D.C. — she grew up in the small community of Jews in Kansas City during the infamous antisemitic attack there a decade ago.

[The Daily Beast @thedailybeast]

Newark Airport has experienced mayhem in recent months, largely tied to serious staff shortages following DOGE's FAA layoffs.

[Aaron Reichlin-Melnick @ReichlinMelnick]

Donald Trump’s personal lawyer is acting U.S. Attorney for New Jersey, despite no relevant background. She just charged a Democratic congresswoman with assaulting a cop in an incident which occurred after DHS chose to arrest Newark’s mayor for trespassing.

[ProPublica @propublica]

Sean Duffy, who has presented himself as one of the intellectual forefathers of Trump’s trade agenda, sold between $75,000 and $600,000 of stock two days before Trump announced a plan for reciprocal tariffs, disclosures show.

"A 12-year-old boy was left behind on a street after an immigration raid in Waltham, Massachusetts. ICE agents were seen on camera leaving the boy by himself on a sidewalk after arresting the person he was with..."
