DUmmies have hissy fit over arrests of NJ pols for breaking into ICE facility

First, the true story:

Dem Congress members storm New Jersey ICE prison to conduct 'oversight visit': 'People deserve dignity'

ICE's Delaney Hall in Newark, New Jersey, is currently holding alleged killers, MS-13 gang members, child rapists and more

Three members of Congress stormed through the gates of a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention facility in New Jersey on Friday, demanding they be allowed to conduct an "oversight visit."

Reps. Rob Menendez Jr., Bonnie Watson Coleman and LaMonica McIver, all New Jersey Democrats, entered ICE's Delaney Hall detention facility in Newark and were held up inside the first checkpoint, Department of Homeland Security spokesperson DHS spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin told Fox News.

"These members of Congress storming into a detention facility goes beyond bizarre political stunt and puts the safety of our law enforcement agents and the detainees at risk," a DHS statement to Fox News said. "Members of Congress are not above the law and cannot illegally break into detention facilities. Had these members requested a tour, we would have facilitated a tour of the facility. This is an evolving situation."

On Friday, Baraka was taken into custody at the facility, according to Alina Habba, the U.S. attorney for New Jersey.

"The Mayor of Newark, Ras Baraka, committed trespass and ignored multiple warnings from Homeland Security Investigations to remove himself from the ICE detention center in Newark, New Jersey this afternoon," Habba wrote on X. "He has willingly chosen to disregard the law. That will not stand in this state. He has been taken into custody. NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW."

Authorities with Homeland Securities Investigations at the ICE detention facility Delaney Hall this afternoon arrested Newark Mayor Ras Baraka and charged him with trespassing.

The mayor's arrest following an argument with agents came after a tense week at the privately owned and operated immigrant detention center in Newark.

More HERE.

This from NJ.com, by way of context:

A U.S. Department of Homeland Security official sharply criticized Newark’s mayor on Thursday over his opposition to an immigrant detention center in his city, accusing him of “political antics” that the official said endanger ICE officers and detainees.

The mayor is in a private prison. The mayor should have the Newark police arrest the agents for false arrest.
First judges now mayors. I can see this regime arresting all Democrat presidential candidates.

We have to dox all ICE agents, defund the agency and put the leaders on trial.

Once again Democrats proving that they think they're above the law and that they support the lawless non Americans over the law abiding American citizens.

This is the worst attack on our democracy since 9/11 and Pearl Harbor!

[Texacon]

Let me put this out for the DUmmies to see.

I’ve always been against this BUT it might be time to dox some DUmmies.

Lurkers, and I know you’re here, keep talking about doxing ICE Agents and we might very well start posting your information here.

Think carefully before you dox someone.

I'm wondering what their response would be if Republican members of Congress stormed the DC jail where J6ers were held.

[FlippyDoo]

Loudspeaker: Who's above the law?!?!?!?

DemonRats: NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW!!!!...unless the people in question are DemonRats in which case the previous reply does NOT apply.

8. Just reported on MSNBC

Something about the mayor going to an ICE facility and he was ordered to leave. Since he wouldn't leave they arrested him.

In big-people land, this is known as "trespassing."

Axios reports that House Democrats broke into the ICE facility, touched off a fight with federal law enforcement officers, and got themselves arrested along with Newark mayor Ras Baraka:
...
Well, we report, you decide. Does it look like the Democrats and their supporters merely showed up and asked for access to this facility? One that houses some dangerous detainees with MS-13 and Tren de Aragua connections?
...
Fox's Will Cain interviewed DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin, who explained that the gates had opened to allow a bus of detainees into the facility. That's when the Democrats broke through the line and attempted to force entry as officers attempted the normal intake of detainees. "This is not congressional oversight," McLaughlin explained. It might be obstruction of official business, which is an actual crime, not to mention assault and battery:

The big question, IMO, is whether they will receive two-tier justice privilege.

Given that the US-A for that locale is one Alina Habba, one would hope not.

25. Sanctuary city mayors need to move with armed security

Apparently, from this point forward.

Why? So they can spend their whole lives in prison? Any mayor who has security that they have authorized to fire on federal law enforcement is not going to do well in federal court.

One can only hope if they don’t receive justice in the courts then they’ll get their justice on election day and wind up unemployed

This is all kabuki theater by the Democrats trying to gain points and improve their esteem in the eyes of the media and other Democrats. It’s all just a bunch of bullshit and they know that whatever they do they will suffer no consequences unfortunately.

Spreading the rumor that the place doesn’t have a certificate of occupancy is just a bunch of baloney for them to try and close it down.

They are all vile disgusting people hopefully election time to people of New Jersey will get their head out of their ass and vote them out of office
