Noem says he didn't identify himself, he did, you can see on camera.
Admin claims he barged into a press conference and belligerently reached for Noem. Padilla says he was there for 5-10 minutes before the incident and was escorted in by 2 agents, one of whom is FBI and he has the guys name.
Wasn't wearing his security pin to ID him. He had a shirt on with the US Senate logo. Sen Murkowski said 90% of the Senate never wears their security pin. Ironically she said the percent that do dropped significantly after Jan 6 because they were seen as targets that day the pins told the insurrectionsists who they were.
Noem said they had a good talk and ironed things out. Padilla said when she said that, they had not spoken.
