Trump Is Calling Handcuffed Senator Vile Racial Slur: Author

Donald Trump is trying to justify federal agents handcuffing California Senator Alex Padilla by suggesting that he “looked like an illegal,” his leading biographer has revealed.

“Trump saw these pictures and then has been on the phone saying to people, ‘Nobody’s ever heard of this guy,’” Michael Wolff, the bestselling author, said this week on The Daily Beast Podcast. “As though that’s an excuse. And then he’s gone on to say, ‘and he looks like an illegal.’”

Hey Asshole TACO, the nonviolent undocumented have 1A rights, too, and Friendly Fire Gnome knows who he is, anyhow.

... “Padilla is actually a relatively new senator from California, nobody knows about this person. Therefore, perfectly understandable that the ICE agents would tackle him. And of course he looks like ‘an illegal.’

3 years, moron.

... Wolff said that Trump was “a little unsettled by the Padilla thing” and is attempting to sweep it under the rug. Democratic lawmakers had seized on it as an unconstitutional outrage and even two Republican senators—Alaska’s Lisa Murkowski and Maine’s Susan Collins, both on-off Trump critics—had spoken out against it.

I'm glad the GOP wasn't unanimous in its silence or fascist support for the arrest.

“He’s rationalizing this in some way which might brand him as a complete racist once more,” Wolff added. “Although I’m sure he doesn’t particularly care about that.”

Too true.

In response White House Communications Director Steven Cheung recycled a previous attack on Wolff and said, “Michael Wolff is a lying sack of s--t and has been proven to be a fraud. He routinely fabricates stories originating from his sick and warped imagination, only possible because he has a severe and debilitating case of Trump Derangement Syndrome that has rotted his peanut-sized brain.”

So professional . So adult for that matter.

... Noem’s excuse for her agents tackling Padilla was that the senator lunged at her despite them being far apart and several videos showing no evidence to back up her claim.

MAGA lies about EVERYTHING, even stupidly when there's a room full of reporters.

The manhandling of Padilla has incited a wave of backlash from 2028 presidential hopefuls like Governor Gavin Newsom, who called the assault “outrageous, dictatorial, and shameful.”

“Trump and his shock troops are out of control,” he said. ”This must end now."

In fairness, it omitted the 11-27 amendments.

North Carolina Gov. Stein orders flags at half-staff on June 27

... According to a June 26 news release, this is in honor of Anti-Lynching Awareness Month. This month recognizes "the cruel acts of lynching throughout American history and memorializes the countless victims and families impacted across the state," the release said.

“Anti-Lynching Awareness Month serves as a grim reminder of one of our nation’s greatest sins. We must promote the truth of our history, both the good and the bad, and we must remember the victims of lynching and the pain their families were forced to endure," Stein said in the release. "Let their memories be a blessing and a reminder that the fight for justice and equality for all must continue with each generation.”

Historians have documented at least 173 individuals in North Carolina who were victims of lynching since the Civil War with many more victims yet unknown, the release said.

All North Carolinians are encouraged to lower flags with a moment of silence to mourn and recognize the victims and their families across the state.

Thanks, Gov.

Judge rejects White supremacist push by DoJ:

Ex-LMPD detective Brett Hankison sentenced to 33 months in prison

A federal judge sentenced former Louisville Police detective Brett Hankison to 33 months in prison for the shots he fired during the fatal 2020 raid on Breonna Taylor's apartment.

The July 21 sentence was in defiance of a last-minute request from federal prosecutors that Hankison receive only a one-day sentence.

Western District of Kentucky Judge Rebecca Grady Jennings said she was “troubled” by the prosecutors' July 16 sentencing memorandum, as well as their arguments towards leniency in court on Monday.

Judge Rebecca Grady Jennings was appointed by Donald Trump.

... He was convicted of violating Taylor’s civil rights the night she was killed by firing a total of 10 shots into her apartment through a sliding glass door and window that were covered by blinds. None of the shots Hankison fired hit her, though some passed into a neighboring apartment where a man, a pregnant woman and young child were present.

He was fired from LMPD for "blindly" shooting into Taylor's apartment.

Good.

... The memorandum, signed by DOJ civil rights division senior counsel Robert J. Keenan, also said the DOJ "respects the jury's verdict, which will almost certainly ensure that Hankison never serves as a law enforcement officer again and will also likely ensure he never legally possesses a firearm again."

"almost certainly ... likely"?

... During his sentencing hearing, which lasted more than four hours on July 21, Hankison’s defense and friends described the repeated trials taking a severe toll on the former LMPD detective.

... Federal charges related to the preparation of the warrant that brought LMPD officers to Taylor’s South End apartment are still pending against former LMPD officers Kyle Meany and Joshua Jaynes.

This DoJ doesn't give a shit.

... Taylor’s boyfriend, Kenneth Walker, who fired a single shot as police breached Taylor’s door in 2020, said it was “a small piece of justice” that Hankison was sentenced to prison.

“I’m grateful for the small piece of justice that we got. It’s definitely not what I was expecting,” he told reporters outside the courthouse. “Brett Hankison told me I was going to go to jail for the rest of my life, so I definitely feel some type of something to see him going, even if it’s a little time.” ...
