Democratic members of Congress who were part of a scuffle with law enforcement officers at an ICE facility in New Jersey may face arrests, the Department of Homeland Security confirmed to Axios Saturday.
Why it matters: It would be a major escalation in the Trump administration’s arrests of politicians and other public servants, including the mayor of Newark and a judge in Milwaukee.
- DHS is accusing the House Democrats of assaulting law enforcement. The lawmakers say they were the ones who were assaulted.
- The lawmakers involved in the incident: Reps. Bonnie Watson Coleman (D-N.J.), Rob Menendez (D-N.J.) and LaMonica McIver (D-N.J.).
They released some body cam footage but it doesn’t show that so I’m assuming they aren’t releasing the video of the ICE agent getting body slammed by a Congressperson because it’s rad as fuck and that Congressperson would instantly be named Speaker of the House, Smack Down Champion, and a Cardinal by Chicago Pope regardless of their faith tradition.
Or maybe it just didn’t actually happen.
The Atlantic has a great piece this month about how we saying the judicial system split in two, Watch for more of this and increasing penalties, some of them won’t be let out of jail eventually. And we’ll just be disappearing our political opponents.
Democrats didn’t have the will to arrest Trump, and now guess what…
Oh right, between ICE agents and house politicians, the latter really are the ones who everyone would believe to be the ones physically assaulting someone.
They need to pull a “No u” with dRump and release an arrest warrant for the treasonous 47th and his goons. 😬
Too bad they don’t have the balls to do things even at these level… Hopefully they get their heads out their ass before it’s too late.
Good to hear that there are zero consequences so far for the ICE guys
Ready the muskets.
doooooo iiiiiiiiit
