Paul 'not for censuring' Padilla: 'I think that's crazy'

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) said he would be against censuring Sen. Alex Padilla after the California Democrat tried to approach and question Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem during a press conference, which led to federal agents forcibly removing and handcuffing him.

“No, no, no. I’m not for censuring him. I think that’s crazy. I’m not for that at all,” Paul told NBC’s Kristen Welker on Sunday’s “Meet The Press.”

The Thursday altercation sparked varying reactions on Capitol Hill, with Democrats condemning federal agents for what they said was an unjust and unnecessary reaction, and Republicans arguing Padilla’s conduct was inappropriate.

Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) on Thursday said he thought Padilla should be censured for his actions.

1. And I think mosesmike should be censured for disgracing the Speakership.

And for pretending to be an actual human being.

2. Excellent points! I completely agree on both.

3. Censured for what? Wanting to ask a question?

These people are completely nuts. That is ridiculous but that's the country we live in now.

Padilla's conduct was inappropriate. Like hell it was. Let's see if I have this right: Noem shooting a puppy in the face is appropriate. Noem dressing up like she's going to Comic Con while in her official capacities is appropriate. But asking her a question is inappropriate. Why are they wasting time on this stupid shit? Don't they have any legislation to occupy their time?
