To the editor: When is sufficient sufficient? I’m in tears as a senator from my state is manhandled to the bottom for asking questions (“California Sen. Alex Padilla forcibly removed, handcuffed during Kristi Noem press conference,” June 12). How might Homeland Safety Secretary Kristi Noem’s “safety” assault our senator for exercising his constitutional rights? Whether or not Sen. Alex Padilla was a authorities consultant or not, that is all part of our rights as residents, as granted by the first Modification.
On high of all of the affronts by President Trump’s disregard of our legal guidelines, that is over the sting to dictatorship. All senators and representatives should stand as much as this outrageous disregard of our legal guidelines. The Posse Comitatus Act will not be a suggestion, neither is the Structure. It’s nicely previous time for Republicans to face up for our nation. Do they actually care to go down in historical past as seditious cowards?
I’m a 78-year-old Los Angeles native and have by no means been so indignant on the conduct of presidency officers in my life. I’ve seen President Nixon lie and the Iran-Contra mess underneath President Reagan, along with many different incidents the place officers broke the regulation. That is a lot worse. Our rights are on the road. If my mobility weren’t impaired, I might be protesting with my fellow Angelenos. Rise up for us!

To the editor: Noem can shoot defenseless animals, however is unable to reply questions from a United States senator. Is she actually able to making certain our nation’s home safety? It doesn’t appear like it.
