On the Friday before Mother’s Day, LaMonica McIver,
a first-term Democratic congresswoman from New Jersey,
spent the morning handing out roses in the maternity ward of a hospital in Newark.
Her next stop, a visit to Delaney Hall, a federal immigration jail in her district,
promised to be a more […]

2/9 The list of targets is significant.
It includes Education Minister Demetrios #Nicolaides, House Speaker Ric #McIver, and Ministers Rajan #Sawhney and Dale #Nally.
Constituents cite reasons ranging from unresponsiveness to the use of the #Notwithstanding clause in the recent teachers' strike.
Painted in 2011, this self-portrait comes after years in which American artist Beverly McIver navigated profound loss and new responsibility following her mother’s death and her promise to care for her sister Renee, who has a developmental disability. In earlier works, Beverly often centered her mother and sister, but here she turns the gaze gently onto herself, capturing a moment of hard-won calm. She depicts herself as a mature Black woman from the shoulders up, set low in the frame against a flat orange-gold background. Her short black natural hair forms an uneven halo of dark curls, painted in thick strokes. She bows her head and lowers her eyes, so we see mostly the planes of her forehead, nose, and cheeks, modeled in patches of browns, gold, green, and rose. Her full lips, a deep brick red, press gently together. A light blue scarf wraps around her neck and spills to the right, its rough brushmarks suggesting soft folds of fabric. She wears a dark coat over a pale top. Soft, diffuse light creates gentle shifts of color that register emotion more than strict anatomy. The warm background recalls religious icons with gold tones, suggesting a quiet, almost devotional gratitude. Thick, expressive strokes refuse to smooth away age, fatigue, or complex feeling, aligning with McIver’s belief that “all of my portraits are self-portraits” and should tell the truth about a life. Created when she was an acclaimed North Carolina artist and teacher, "Truly Grateful" honors the resilience of a Black woman who has come through grief and caregiving and can finally pause, eyes closed, to acknowledge that ... despite everything ... life is still good.

2/8 The new targets include heavy hitters: House Speaker Ric #McIver and cabinet ministers Rajan #Sawhney, Dale #Nally, and RJ #Sigurdson.
They join Education Minister Demetrios #Nicolaides, who was already facing a campaign.
The pressure on the governing caucus is mounting.
We thought that LaMonica McIver's case would be dismissed seeing as it's an obvious weaponization of the law, but apparently it's instead going to court. We can donate to her legal defense here:

7/10 Climenhaga highlights the delicious irony.
Then-minister Ric #McIver claimed the 2024 law was to "increase accountability, transparency, and public trust."
Climenhaga: "Ironically, this may have just happened – only not in the way the #UCP intended."

House Fails To #Censure Lamonica #McIver In Shock Vote
House Democrats, with help from more than half a dozen Republicans, succeeded in killing a motion to censure Rep. LaMonica McIver (D-N.J.) for clashing with ICE officers in April.

#Victory #Trump2.0
A Republican measure to #censure a Democratic lawmaker targeted with criminal charges by the Trump administration went down in flames after a handful of GOP members of Congress crossed over to vote against it, reported NBC News on Wednesday.
The resolution was targeting Rep. LaMonica #McIver (D-NJ)

Could it be that the @GOP #bloc is starting to crumble? Is it possible that their “#fellowship” is breaking? #EpsteinFiles & now this?

New Jersey: The ICE incident propelled McIver’s name into headlines nationwide, and into the consciousness of Democratic donors. Her campaign raised $751,704 in the second quarter from Democrats all over the U.S.
#ICE #McIver #NJ
I know it’s small potatoes, but I hope we’re paying attention to the assault on democracy here in the garden state. I raise the alarm, but it’s largely business as usual in #NJ 🤷🏻♀️
- Rep. LaMonica #McIver: 1st congressmen assaulted/arrested. She’s fighting it.
- AG Matthew #Platkin: investigation.

Officials arrested at immigration demonstrations/ advocacy:
#Dugan #McIver #Baraka #Padilla #Lander
The US government is blatantly misrepresenting events captured on video
in an effort to intimidate powerful officials and ordinary citizens who seek to challenge the White House’s policies.
Alec Karakatsanis, the founder of Civil Rights Corps, a nonprofit legal advocacy group, argued:
“By […]
Former fed prosecutor Mitch Epner:
the #McIver indictment is “an embarrassment to the legacy of the US Attorney’s Office for the District of NJ, where I proudly served as an AUSA from 2001 – 2004.”
“Acting US Attorney Alina Habba is bringing SHAME to an office that she is NOT QUALIFIED to lead,”
The entire, ENTIRE Democratic Party needs to flood the airwaves on this regimes attacks on democrat politicians!!!
#McIver
#Padilla
Rep. McIver and Sen. Padilla were doing their jobs.
The Felon-Traitor set his thugs on them.
We are at a tipping point.
We will prevail.
Keep fighting!

The puppet regime in D. C. has arrested sitting U. S. representative #McIver, New Jersey Mayor Ras #Baraka, Wisconsin judge Hannah #Dugan and #union leader David #Huerta on trumped-up #ICE - related charges.

No, no, no this is unacceptable! It's ALL on video she is innocent!
