Hell No .

Rep. LaMonica McIver was indicted on federal charges by the U.S. Justice Department for her alleged actions outside a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention facility.

According to an indictment, tensions escalated after a Department of Homeland Security special agent informed Mayor Baraka that he was not authorized to enter a secured area. 

Prosecutors allege that McIver intervened to prevent the arrest, first shouting “Hell no!” and then physically obstructing the officer. She is accused of using her forearm to strike one officer and attempting to restrain him during a second arrest attempt. She also allegedly pushed past an ICE deportation officer, striking him with her forearms. 

A press release from the New Jersey U.S. Attorney’s Office alleged, “During her continued attempts to thwart the arrest, McIver slammed her forearm into the body of one law enforcement officer and also reached out and tried to restrain that officer by forcibly grabbing him. McIver also used each of her forearms to forcibly strike a second officer.”

New ideology?

Far..

The 33-year-old assembly member, a Muslim democratic socialist, defeated former Governor Andrew Cuomo by 56% to 44% in the final round of ranked choice voting, marking a watershed moment for the Democratic establishment. 

Within hours of his win however, Mamdani became the target of coordinated online attacks that framed his faith, ideology, and heritage as threats to public life, according to the Center for the Study of Organized Hate (CSOH).

What comes next is a heated general election campaign, with the 33-year-old assembly member positioned to become the first Muslim mayor of New York City. The primary race was marked by offline Islamophobic rhetoric—most prominently from Cuomo’s camp, which included flyers with Mamdani’s beard lengthened and darkened. Mamdani condemned them as playing on "racist tropes.

Comment:

Regardless of his religion, Mamdani's socialist policies that he uttered are scary, and what is extra scary is what he didn't say yet..  Just a thought.

Free..

Loose..

 

Jane Eugene, the lead singer of the chart-topping1980sBritish R&B group Loose Ends, is currently facing deportation proceedings after being detained by U.S. immigration authorities for overstaying her visa by more than two decades.

The 62-year-old performer was arrested two months ago by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agents after attempting to cross into Canada at the Niagara Falls border.

Comment:

Apparently, no one is above the law.

Briefly..

 

A federal judge on Friday briefly halted deportations of eight immigrants to war-torn South Sudan, sending the case to another judge, in Boston, the day after the Supreme Court greenlighted their removal.

The administration has been trying to deport the immigrants for weeks. None are from South Sudan, which is enmeshed in civil war and where the U.S government advises no one should travel before making their own funeral arrangements. 

The government flew them to the U.S. Naval Base at Djibouti but couldn’t move them further because Murphy had ruled no immigrant could be sent to a new country without a chance to have a court hearing.

Comment:

It is better to follow the law and travel to your own country instead.  Just a thought.

Firing..

Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Kristi Noem said that she is exploring ways to fire employees who "don't like us" or "don't support what we are doing," raising alarms about potential political retaliation.

Noem's rhetoric reflects a broader push by the Trump administration to reassert political control over DHS operations. 

Over the past few months, officials have requested that employees working on legal immigration processes volunteer to assist with deportation activities, per CBS News.

Sense .

Eric Johnson, the Democrat-turned-Republican mayor of Dallas, declared on Thursday that the Texan city is now a refuge from socialist policies after New York State Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani won New York City's Democratic mayoral primary.

 Johnson described Dallas as the nation's first "sanctuary city from socialism" in a message seemingly directed toward New Yorkers.

"If your city is (or is about to be) a sanctuary for criminals, mayhem, job-killing regulations, and failed socialist experiments, I have a modest invitation for you: MOVE TO DALLAS," he posted on X.

"We value free enterprise, law and order, and our first responders," Johnson continued. "Common sense and the American Dream still reside here. 

We have all your big-city comforts and conveniences without the suffocating vice grip of government bureaucrats."

Act..

 

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., forced a name change for President Donald Trump's "big, beautiful bill" moments before the legislative package passed the upper chamber of Congress.

Schumer argued the title of the bill violated Section 313 B1A of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974, or what's commonly referred to as the "Byrd Rule."

This is not a ‘big, beautiful bill’ at all. That's why I moved down the floor to strike the title. It is now called ‘the act.’ That's what it's called. But it is really the ‘big ugly betrayal,’ and the American people know it," Schumer said.

Comment:
When the Dems lost power, it was a self-imposed defeat. 

Inflation, open borders, high crimes, defunding the police calls, higher prices of food, fueling the war of the Ukraine and Russia, unknown driver in the White House, etc.  

Now the Dems are trying something relevant, may be. Just a thought.

Wonder..
