In the United States, the FBI detained a senator for asking a provocative question to the minister.

In the United States, employees of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) forcibly handcuffed Democratic Senator Alex Padilla for his attempt to ask a question during a press conference by Homeland Security Secretary Kristy Noem. This was reported on June 12 by the NBS News channel.

"Senator Alex Padilla, a Democrat from California, was forcibly removed from a press conference in Los Angeles after he tried to ask questions to Homeland Security Secretary Kristy Noem during a press conference on immigration," the publication says.

The footage shows how employees with FBI identification marks take him out into the corridor, after which they push him face forward onto the floor and handcuff him.

"At some point, I had a question and started asking it. I was almost immediately forcibly taken out of the room, forced to lie on the floor and handcuffed," Padilla said.

According to him, if government officials in the United States respond in this way to a senator's question, "one can only imagine" what kind of reaction less prestigious employees across the country face.
