From Fox News: Democratic Rep. LaMonica McIver, who is currently facing charges related to interfering with ICE officers at a detention facility, is facing strong pushback online over her line of questioning to ICE Acting Director Todd Lyons in a heated hearing Tuesday.
“How do you think Judgment Day will work for you with so much blood on your hands?” McIver asked Lyons during a hearing in which Democrats lashed out on multiple occasions against ICE and President Donald Trump’s immigration agenda in general while highlighting the deaths of Renee Good and Alex Pretti, both killed by federal immigration agents during altercations in Minneapolis in recent weeks.
Lyons responded, “I’m not going to entertain that question.”
“Of course not,” McIver said back. “Do you think you’re going to hell?”
That’s when House Homeland Security Committee Chairman Andrew Garbarino (R-NY) interrupted McIver’s inappropriate grilling, and gave her a fierce tongue-lashing, and ordered her to suspend her questioning.
“The witnesses are here voluntarily… while oversight is important, aggressively attacking the witnesses personally is inappropriate and not in keeping with the traditions of our committee,” Garbarino declared.
McIver defiantly replied, “I was just asking a question… you guys are always talking about religion and the Bible… it’s ok for me to ask a question, right?”
Every time McIver used the word “ask”, she pronounced it as “axe.”

Fox News correspondent Bill Melugin pointed out that McIver herself is facing federal charges for assaulting an ICE agent.
WOW.
Just now, Rep. LaMonica McIver (D-NJ) who is facing federal charges for assaulting an ICE agent, asks ICE Director Todd Lyons “how do you think Judgement Day will go for you with so much blood on your hands” then asks “do you think you’re going to hell Mr. Lyons?”.
Groans…

Conservatives are reacting in outrage over McIver’s appalling attack on Lyons. Below are just some of the responses being posted on social media:
Absolute trash!
Lock her up!
Disgusting twat.
Why is this woman not in prison, or at least not in Congress? Just asking for a friend, or a nation…whatever. 🤔
She’s jus axin a question….
Let me ax you some questions…
Disgusting behavior from an elected representative.
The lady seemed ready to “AX” a lot of questions. SMH.
Why hasn’t she been expelled? They kicked out George Santos after he was indicted.
Why is she not in prison?
Demonic. Frankly, she shouldn’t even be on the panel, given her bias.
House Republicans posted a video clip of the exchange and wrote, “UNHINGED! Democrat LaMonica McIver is currently under indictment for ASSAULTING ICE agents. Today, she had a total meltdown during a Homeland Security hearing, telling Acting ICE Director Todd Lyons he’s “going to hell.” Watch for yourself.”
