Jeffries warns admin against arresting Dems: ‘Clear lines that they just dare not cross’
- House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries cautioned federal officials against pursuing arrests of House Democrats following their unsuccessful effort to breach an ICE holding center in Newark, New Jersey, the previous week.
- This warning followed the involvement of representatives Robert Menendez and LaMonica McIver in the attempt, which led to clashes with law enforcement outside the facility.
- DHS spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin indicated that the possibility remains for some House Democrats to face federal arrest, citing bodycam footage that allegedly captures assaults on officers during the incident.
- Jeffries warned firmly that crossing a certain boundary would not be tolerated, and Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez emphasized that any harm directed at a member of Congress would lead to serious consequences.
- The situation underscores sharp political tensions and suggests that any enforcement actions against lawmakers could provoke significant legal and political conflict.
