Padilla cuffed, McIver indicted: Can Congress come back from the brink?
Friday, 13 June 2025 () As gratuitous displays of protest and their ensuing repercussions become commonplace among members of Congress, some wonder how our discourse's temperature could possibly dial down.
In this explosive breakdown, we dive deep into the Delaney Hall showdown where a group of lawmakers, including Congresswoman LaMonica McIver, clashed with ICE officers during a protest over detainee conditions. The confrontation has led to serious legal consequences — with McIver facing federal charges and Newark Mayor Ras Baraka having his trespassing charges dropped.

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem has accused Democratic lawmakers of committing felonies following a scuffle at an ICE facility in New Jersey. Representatives Bonnie Watson Coleman, Robert Menendez, and LaMonica McIver were involved in a tense confrontation at the Delaney Hall Detention Center. Newark Mayor Ras Baraka was arrested for trespassing. Democrats deny wrongdoing, saying they were escorted in lawfully and assaulted by ICE agents. Noem and DHS claim lawmakers stormed the building and assaulted officers. The incident has sparked a heated clash over congressional oversight and immigration enforcement.
