Rep. LaMonica McIver Really Went To Town
Against Ice Agents In Newark

Original Article

Posted By: J. Arthur Brown, 5/10/2025 7:02:35 PM

Yesterday, news broke that a passel of Democrats -- three Congresspeople and the Newark mayor -- went all "insurrectiony" and tried to storm the Newark ICE faciliity. Newark's mayor was arrested, but as of this writing, the congresspeople involved (Reps. Bonnie Watson Coleman (D-NJ), Rob Menendez (D-NJ), and LaMonica McIver (D-NJ) were still free. However, a new video has emerged that makes it look as if federal prosecutors might at least want to think about investigating McIver (snip).

Members of Congress and judicial officers do not have the right to demand entrance to facilities under the jurisdiction of the Executive Branch, whether prisons, shipyards, hospitals, military installations, etc. On the other hand, the director of ICE or any other agency will almost always accommodate a civil request from ranking public officials who ask for an escorted tour. Conversely, by tradition dating to George Washington, the President may not enter the U.S. Capitol without an invitation from the Speaker of the House. These jealously guarded formalities visibly acknowledge and preserve the constitutional separation of powers among the three branches.

Even if convicted she can't be incarcerated while congress is in session. Or removed by the house. I believe Adam Clayton powell spent time in jail on his off days from congress.

Blacks are the race that is most hurt by the illegals taking their jobs and being used by the Democrats to replace a black vote that is coming to see what the Democrat plan is, and these morons are being used and are too stupid to see it.

Should have been Tased the moment she touched the Agent. Immediate and painful response is the only way that such feral creatures will ever learn any lesson, since judicial proceedings are absolutely stacked in their favor.

As the Catholic Church in the United States grapples with the implications of the first American pope, another important development affecting American Catholics has gone largely unnoticed: the death of the decades-long project of neoconservative Catholic elites to dominate and dictate the policy debate within the Republican Party. (Snip.) The only aspect of the first Trump Administration exempt from their criticism was his handling of judicial appointments (Snip.) Although the President often touts his first term appointments to the court, the Trump appointees -- particularly Justices Kavanaugh and Barrett -- have often proven to be meddlesome obstacles to the implementation of his populist MAGA agenda.

There were so many lies told by Joe Biden, his wife and their aides that it's hard to distinguish delusion from reality when assessing his disastrous presidency and determining who needs to be held accountable for all of the crimes and coverups. (Snip) According to an exclusive preview of the upcoming book "Original Sin" by Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson, at the same time that the White House and Hunter were denying the existence of his abandoned "laptop from hell" in early 2022, Biden aides were so concerned about the political fallout that they secretly arranged for the Democratic National Committee to obtain a copy of the hard drive.

In light of the terrible week Joe Biden had, it was inevitable that the media would try to drum up some fake controversy about Donald Trump. In fact, they happily obliged by grossly distorting comments Trump made during a campaign speech in Conway, South Carolina, on Saturday. "Former President Donald Trump on Saturday said he would encourage Russia to do 'whatever the hell they want' to any NATO member country that doesn't meet spending guidelines in a stunning admission he would not abide by the collective defense clause at the heart of the alliance if reelected," reported CNN.

WASHINGTON — Joe Biden was never diagnosed with prostate cancer until last week, and the last time he was screened for it was more than a decade ago, a spokesperson for the former president said Tuesday. “President Biden’s last known PSA was in 2014. Prior to Friday, President Biden had never been diagnosed with prostate cancer,” the spokesperson said. (Snip) In recent years, doctors have increasingly begun screening for the disease in older patients. President Donald Trump, 78, received a PSA screening as recently as this year, according to medical records released by the White House. Since he revealed his

Federal judges have recently halted a number of President Donald Trump’s executive orders and White House initiatives, setting off a firestorm of debate over how far judges’ power should go. As it turns out, most Americans of virtually all political persuasions think that judges should have the power to delay a president’s moves, the latest I&I/TIPP Poll shows. In its April 30-May 2 national online poll of 1,400 voters, I&I/TIPP posed the following statement and question: “Federal district judges are appointed by the president, confirmed by the Senate, and serve lifetime terms. There are currently 677 such judges in the U.S.

The leaders of Canada, Britain, and France warned Israel that they will take “concrete actions” if it does not pause a military offensive in Gaza and lift restrictions on humanitarian aid into the territory. The Israeli military began a series of air strikes against what it said were Hamas targets on Friday, ahead of the launch of “Gideon’s Chariots,” a new ground offensive which is aimed at gaining “operational control” of the northern and southern parts of the Gaza Strip. The joint statement, released by the British government on Monday, said, “We strongly oppose the expansion of Israel’s military operations in Gaza.

Illegal aliens are being recruited to join sophisticated criminal networks in the United States that stage accidents and injuries to get payouts through the nation’s personal injury system, House Republicans told Attorney General Pam Bondi.[snip] “These fraudulent schemes pose serious risks to public safety, increase consumer costs, and raise insurance premiums for the motoring public,” the Republicans wrote. “According to the Coalition Against Insurance Fraud, insurance fraud costs the U.S. $308 billion annually, with $45 billion attributable to property and casualty insurance fraud. More importantly, these activities put innocent motorists at risk of injury or even death.”

An impeachment inciter is eyeing a new opportunity to serve the Democratic Party in the state where woke goes to die, and the laughter can’t be contained. Years after being hailed as a “whistleblower” for his role as lead witness in the first impeachment of President Donald Trump over the GOP leader’s “perfect” phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, retired Army Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman is suggesting he has new political aspirations. Though reluctant to make himself a “sacrificial player,” the Ukrainian-born social media flamethrower is considering a Senate bid in Florida. Speaking with CBS New Miami, Vindman said of the potential challenge to appointed incumbent Florida Sen. Ashley Moody (R),

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) is seen as the “face” of the Democratic Party according to new polling. In a Co/efficient survey conducted from May 7 to May 9 among 1,462 likely voters, 26% identified Ocasio-Cortez as the face of the Democratic Party. Another 26% said there is no one currently leading the party, while 22% chose “other.” Ocasio-Cortez was far ahead of other listed Democrats. Coming in a distant second was close ally Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT). The pair recently went to various states with their Fighting Oligarchy tour. Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) placed third in the survey with 8%.
Promises Made, Promises Kept: Memorial

Americans celebrating Memorial Day by hitting the road will likely be paying the cheapest gas prices since 2003. GasBuddy, a fuel savings platform, said Tuesday that it forecasts the national average price of gasoline to be $3.08 per gallon on Memorial Day. That would make it the cheapest since 2021 in nominal terms. After adjusting for inflation, it would be the lowest since 2003. This is not expected to be short-lived. Prices of gasoline are expected to average around $3.02 per gallon between Memorial Day and Labor Day, with prices falling below three dollars on some days.
Jeffrey Epstein and trust in the government 20 replies

Ah, Jeffrey Epstein. We finally have an official statement from our own side, and it contradicts every last thing our own side has believed now for years. Let’s all approach this analytically. I would be willing to bet that no one reading this right now was there in that jail cell. No one reading right now was on the island, on the plane, or anywhere else relevant to the case. We have secondhand knowledge at best. It is easy to believe a conspiracy theory. It is hard to admit it if you are wrong. Do I think serious crimes were committed? Yes.
More Truth About Global Warming 20 replies

Media reports are laced with unsubstantiated claims that man is overheating his planet. Every time climate change is mentioned in a story, even features in a newspaper’s food or fashion pages, it is understood that humans are turning Earth into a muggy greenhouse by burning fossil fuel. No evidence is provided to corroborate the claim. Man-made global warming just is and skeptics are deplorables. But the facts tell a different story. Roy Spencer, a University of Alabama-Huntsville climate scientist, has determined that “65% of the U.S. linear warming trend between 1895 and 2023 was due to increasing population density at the suburban and urban stations;

We wish former President Biden the best. I pray for his recovery. Honestly, I hope that Jill plans to go to confession and admit that she loved the title of First Lady a lot more than being a devoted wife. My guess is there a lot of ladies in the country who can't believe her disregard for Joe Biden's health and well-being. Again, she loved the title and staff. And now there is prostate cancer: The 82-year-old former president was diagnosed Friday after doctors found a “small nodule” on his prostate during a medical exam earlier this month -- with the cancer cells having spread to the bone, his spokesman revealed Sunday.

Congressional Republicans are the absolute worst, for many reasons, but this time, it has to do with the “big” and “beautiful” tax bill that’s working its way toward Donald Trump’s desk—Republicans, despite holding both houses, as well as the Oval Office, are set to retain hundreds of billions of dollars in Green New Deal provisions, if they get their way.[Snip] Mike Johnson, like the serpent he is, craftily he touted the “$500 billion” in cuts, but ignored the hundreds of billions he and his cohorts retained or worse, expanded:

Across the country, a new defense is being heard in state and federal courtrooms. From Democratic members of Congress to judges to city council members, officials claim that their duties include obstructing the official functions of the federal government. It is a type of liberal license that excuses almost any crime in the name of combating what Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz called the “modern-day Gestapo” of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). The latest claimant of this license is Rep. LaMonica McIver (D-NJ), who was charged with assaulting, resisting, and impeding law enforcement officers during a protest at Delaney Hall ICE detention facility in Newark, New Jersey.
