A Democratic congresswoman is facing serious charges after attacking federal immigration agents. LaMonica McIver of New Jersey allegedly shoved two Homeland Security officers during a chaotic protest at a Newark ICE facility. Video evidence shows her violently striking law enforcement during the incident.
Federal prosecutors say McIver slammed her forearm into an agent’s chest and physically restrained him from doing his job. Bodycam footage captured the congresswoman aggressively pushing officers amid the chaos. This wasn’t oversight—it was a dangerous assault on those protecting our borders.
While McIver faces up to eight years in prison, charges were mysteriously dropped against Newark’s radical left mayor Ras Baraka. Baraka, who’s running for governor, escaped consequences after illegally trespassing at the same facility. The double standard stinks of political favoritism for Democrats.
McIver claims she was “inspecting” the detention center, but agents say she mobbed the gates with protesters. The facility houses thousands of illegal immigrants, including violent criminals. True oversight doesn’t involve attacking the brave agents managing this crisis.
The Biden Justice Department stayed silent as Trump-appointed prosecutor Alina Habba courageously filed charges. Democrats immediately circled the wagons, calling it a “political prosecution.” Since when do conservatives get accused of weaponizing justice?
This is what happens when radical politicians put open borders over public safety. While ICE agents risk their lives, elites like McIver treat law enforcement as punching bags. Her disrespect for police would get any conservative crucified by the media.
McIver’s supporters claim she’s a victim, but footage shows her throwing elbows like a street brawler. If a Republican did this, they’d already be in handcuffs. The left’s “rules for thee, not for me” mentality is destroying trust in our institutions.
Everyday Americans know the truth: This wasn’t about oversight. It was about a power-hungry politician attacking the very people keeping our communities safe. Until Democrats respect the rule of law, chaos will keep spreading.
