Democrat Rep. LaMonica McIver is facing federal charges for assaulting a Department of Homeland Security officer, which can be seen on video. It took place as McIver and other lawmakers tried to break into the ICE detention facility in Newark.
Specifically, McIver is charged with violation of Title 18, United States Code, Section 111(a)(1) for assaulting, impeding and interfering with law enforcement.
Best view I’ve seen of Newark Mayor Baraka being arrested at ICE NJ on Friday and Rep. McIver (red jacket) obstructing, shoving law enforcement, and then hitting law enforcement.
Rep. Menendez came in with a hit too (right).
The reps then forced their way in.
Many crimes here. pic.twitter.com/ectE7sz5BV

“No one is above the law — politicians or otherwise,” Habba said. “It is the job of this office to uphold justice impartially, regardless of who you are.”
McIver said in a statement that the charges against her “are purely political-they mischaracterize and distort my actions, and are meant to criminalize and deter legislative oversight.”
Loony LaMonica should go on the wrestling circuit – after she spends some time in jail that is.
This is progress. Most said the arrest of the lady would not happen.
My hunch is the major has offered some form of support for the ICE facility in his city, in return for the charges being dismissed. If so, that facility will be quiet now.
If the charges are justifiable…BRING THEM…There is a wealth of video evidence to JUSTIFY charges. The ‘bullying’ freaks on the ‘left’ HAVE to be made accountable. No kid gloves…
It seems that perhaps the charges against the mayor may have been dropped because of a technical mistake in placing he charge. The mayor was invited for a tour to alleviate his concerns.
In disputing these charges, apparently this McIver fool does not realize that there are numerous videos that capture her actions and words during this altercation. I can only hope that she ends up with some prison time, as her actions were far more serious than those of virtually all of the January 6th ‘insurrectionists’.
The strike at the back of the officer was bad enough, but when a woman uses the front of her body as a battering ram that also verges on sexual harassment, as the defendant can hardly put his hands out to defend himself without fearing being charged as a pervert.
Mayor Baraka’s misdemeanor charges are dismissed… So Democrats ARE in fact ABOVE the law…..
Sorry for the capital letters but this infuriating…..
If Republicans keep being soft and lenient like that, in the mid terms they will lose and then in 2028 they will lose…..
Many people will stay home and not vote…why bother with voting when nothing changes ?…..
And earlier today I saw that Kash Patel and Bongino said Epstein did kill himself…..as if nothing was very suspicious such as ; the TWO guards fell asleep just at the prefect time …..and then the surveilance video magically was lost while Comey’s daughter was in charge…..nothing suspicious really ???…..
Republicans are way way too soft, they will never win an election again…..
This is both infuriating and discouraging……
And then when Democrats take back the White house they will not be soft and lenient on Republicans, they will arrest them, throw them in prison.
It is infuriating and discouraging, but you extrapolations are also so. Normally your posts are A-1. No so this time.
All those judges blocking almost every one of Trump’s executive order, are they soft and lenient like Alina Habba?
In the previous 4 years was anyone soft and lenient on Trump? on Peter Navarro, on Stve Bannon ? were they soft and lenient on jan6ers some who only walked near the Capitol ?
Did they dismiss charges of trespassing for little grandmas on jan 6 like Habba just dismissed charges ?
Quite the opposite, they enhanced sentences for jan6ers to make them much longer, sent them to a place where they were mistreated , and WITHOUT A TRIAL they had to wait in prison for their due process.
and what is Trump’s team doing ? being soft, gentle and lenient on those criminal barbarians.
If it is like that for the next 4 years the Republican party is finished.
100% right on Canadian Friend
I am beating a dead horse here, but I just read at least 200 comments about this at gateway pundit and about 99% are very disappointed that the charges were dropped.
It was a very bad idea to drop the charges , almost everyone agrees.
It sends the message that democrats can break the law, can attack ICE agents, charges will be dropped or sentences will be reduced to slap on the wrist.
This only emboldens those evil democrats.
Sad but true. Infuriating and discouraging are putting it lightly. I’m beyond pissed.
