It’s being reported that interim U.S. Attorney Alina Habba is set to announce charges against one of the Democrats who tried to storm the ICE facility in Newark, New Jersey last week.
Rep. LaMonica McIver, who is seen on bodycam footage shoving ICE agents outside the gate at the ICE detention facility, is the one who will be charged today:
The Justice Department plans to bring charges against Rep. LaMonica McIver (D-Newark) following a scuffle with federal immigration agents last week at Newark’s Delaney Hall detention center, three sources speaking on the condition of anonymity confirmed to the New Jersey Globe.
Much is still unknown about the case against the freshman congresswoman, but interim U.S. Attorney Alina Habba could announce charges as early as today. McIver may turn herself in this afternoon, the New Jersey Globe learned; she’ll be represented by Paul Fishman, the U.S. Attorney for New Jersey during the Obama administration.
I’m glad Habba and AG Pam Bondi aren’t cowering away from this. We’ll bring you more when we get it.
