Back on May 9, Rep. LaMonica McIver, Newark Mayor Ras Baraka, and others invaded an ICE facility in New Jersey. Video footage of the incident shows McIver yelling at and hitting federal agents.
That's a BIG no-no.
Now it appears the DOJ is going to announce charges against Rep. McIver:
More from the New Jersey Globe:
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.
On Friday, May 9, McIver and three other prominent New Jersey Democrats – Newark Mayor Ras Baraka and Reps. Bonnie Watson Coleman (D-Ewing) and Rob Menendez (D-Jersey City) – visited Delaney Hall, a 1,000-bed facility in the East Ward of Newark that began housing immigrant detainees at the beginning of this month, for an oversight visit.
Partway through the visit, Baraka was arrested by federal authorities; they claimed he was trespassing, while he maintained that he had followed their directions and left when they instructed him to. Baraka’s arrest prompted a scuffle among the three representatives, ICE agents, and a group of protesters who had gathered at Delaney Hall’s gate; both sides have claimed that the other was the aggressor in the fight, which seems to have caused no reported injuries.
Say it with us: NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW.
Correct.
They truly believed the law only applies to Republicans.
George Santos was removed for less.
They will flip and escalate when she's charged.
Bank on that.
NO ONE.
This is the Democrats' own rules.
We see what you did there.
It will be, just as soon as they can right the 'SEE! TRUMP IS A DICTATOR!' chyrons.
Editor's Note: The Deep State is working overtime to subvert President Trump's agenda and the will of the people.
