Representative McIver,
"Doing my job."
I read that three times. Nope. Still says it.
Let me walk through this slowly, like I would with a sophomore whose dog ate the lab report.
On May 9, 2025, you went to Delaney Hall. So did Rep. Watson Coleman. So did Rep. Menendez. Same facility. Same day. Same "job." They toured. They left. Nobody charged them with a thing. If the crime were oversight, all THREE of you would be in the indictment. That is not rocket science. That is counting to three.
The grand jury (June 10, 2025, 18 U.S.C. § 111(a)) is not talking about the tour. It is talking about the scrum outside the gate when officers moved to arrest Mayor Baraka. A forearm into an HSI agent. Grabbing him. Both forearms into an ICE officer. Those are the allegations. You pleaded not guilty, and you get the presumption of innocence. Good. Remember that feeling, because we are coming back to it.
Now the Speech or Debate Clause. Article I, Section 6. It protects what you SAY in Congress. It does not cover your elbows. On August 26, 2026, the Third Circuit looked at Counts 1 and 2 and called the alleged contact "unambiguously non-legislative." Two federal courts. Same answer. At some point the wheel is spinning but the hamster checked out a while ago.
And "17 years"? Come on. That is every maximum stacked end to end, with zero reported officer injuries. Anyone who is not a few fries short of a Happy Meal knows that is the scariest number you can build, not the likely one. Quinn's Law #4 in the wild: liberalism only works when people are scared into believing they need it. Bold. Wrong, but bold.
Here is the part that makes me want to bang my head on a lab table. You are a member of CONGRESS. You WRITE immigration law. The Immigration and Nationality Act came out of your building. The executive enforces it (Article II, "take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed"). You have a drafting office and a voting card, and you are complaining on X like the elevator never made it to the top floor. Next thing you know, a lawmaker will decide the fastest way to change a law is to physically block the officers enforcing it... wait. Somebody just handed me the indictment.
Quinn's Law #23: liberals love the law, right up until they don't agree with it. Your party has decided the people enforcing the law are villains and the people obstructing it are heroes. That is how you become the party of crime without passing a single bill. You're not the brightest bulb in the chandelier if you think nobody notices.
And "merciless." That one got me. I was a combat medic and a civilian paramedic. I have stood next to cops on the worst nights of other people's lives. They have kids. Mortgages. When a sitting member of Congress calls them merciless, some guy who is a couple sandwiches short of a picnic decides he's the hero of the movie. And then somebody like me gets called to the scene. Turn it down. That is ALSO your job.
One more thing, and I mean this part sincerely. You are an expectant mother. Congratulations. You have a whole lot more to think about right now than talking points and party politics. You are also a representative, and your district takes its cues from you. Is this what you want them to learn? That getting physical with public servants at a gate is just "doing my job"? Oh, wait. Never mind. That only counts when the public servant is a cop. If somebody put a forearm into an expectant mother who happens to be a congresswoman, it would lead every network for a month. I forgot how the rules work.
And the irony, which is thick as a brick: you're getting a grand jury, appeals, a rehearing petition, deadline extensions. That's due process. The same system of courts and hearings you call "merciless" when it applies to somebody else. Told you we'd come back to it.
Honest question: what have you done for NJ-10 lately that did not involve a camera and a gate?
But what do I know, I am only someone who actually read the indictment AND the Third Circuit opinion instead of the fundraising email.
