House Democrats Melt Down After New Jersey Democrat Charged With Assault At ICE Facility Protest
Update (1100ET): House Democrats melted down following the announcement that the US attorney in New Jersey, Alina Habba (formerly President Trump's lawyer) will bring charges against Rep. LaMonica McIver (D-NJ) following a May 9 incident at an ICE detention facility in Newark.
McIver is accused of assaulting federal officers during the protest, while Reps. Bonnie Watson Coleman (D-NJ) and Robert Menendez (D-NJ) were not charged.
In a joint statement, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries and the rest of the Democratic leadership - who, if you recall, were frothing at the mouth to lock up Jan. 6 protesters for simple trespassing - slammed Habba.
