Charges against Rep. LaMonica McIver

The acting U.S. Attorney indicated she is bringing charges against Rep. McIver, who was with Baraka and Democrat Reps. Bonnie Watson Coleman and Rob Menendez at Delaney Hall.

"McIver assaulted, impeded, and interferred with law enforecment in violation of Title 18, United States Code, Section 111(a)(1)," Habba said. "That conduct cannot be overlooked."

Abba said she has made efforts to address this matter with McIver and "come to a resolution, but she has unfortunately declined."
Stile: Was Ras Baraka's arrest — a MAGAverse stunt — actually fuel for his campaign?

The freshman congresswoman said in a statement on May 19 that earlier this month she joined her colleagues to "inspect the treatment of ICE detainees at Delaney Hall in my district."
