New Jersey Rep. LaMonica McIver appeared on Jen Psaki’s MSNBC show this week and said that she never thought she’d face charges over her alleged assault during an anti-ICE stunt.
Millions of Americans just thought to themselves – We know.
The left never expects to face consequences for their actions because they almost never do.
She has pleaded not guilty.
McIver should call President Trump and ask him if he expected the Democrats to try to jail and bankrupt him for years. She might actually learn something.

McIver: Assault accusation ‘a scary situation’
Rep. LaMonica McIver (D-N.J.) on Wednesday addressed fears stemming from federal charges tied to her visit to a New Jersey detention facility operated by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
The lawmaker is facing 17 years for forcibly impeding and interfering with federal officers on three counts after she tussled with law enforcement while exiting the facility.
“I never thought I would be facing charges as a sitting congresswoman. It’s a scary situation, too, because I’m thinking of my mom,” McIver said during a Wednesday interview on MSNBC.
“I’m thinking of my mom who was there with me, who’s like, stressed out about this,” she added, referring to her mother’s presence at legal proceedings.
McIver, a first-term lawmaker, said her family is at the forefront of her mind amid the charges stemming from a congressional oversight visit.
“When they’re saying that you’re going to face 17 years in prison, I’m thinking about my daughter, who’s 9 years old. I’m thinking about my husband, my family. And it’s like, ‘Oh, my God, this is awful,’” she told anchor Jen Psaki.
