Adam, as disturbing as this Rep. LaMonica McIver case is, I thank you for keeping it where we can know how it is being tried. I only wish we had another judge like Judge Thomas Ambro, to have a say. Please keep us posted.
Except for a few brave, terrific judges, our court system as a whole is failing to react to the authoritarian threats to our democracy and freedoms with the speed or decisiveness required. We’ve seen the Trump Gangster State indict both a judge and a member of Congress - along with so many other abuses - and the courts just letting it happen with a yawn.
As have every yawning member of Congress who have allowed the Felon and his destructive bulldozing of the rights, privileges and Constitutional responsibilities of the Legislative Branch. Had the Republicans upheld their sworn responsibilities to the Constitution and not fallen into their role of rubber stamps to the illegalities of this corrupt administration and it's appointments of malicious and incompetent sycophants , it would not solely be the judges on whom we now depend for the survival of our democracy and the rights guaranteed us all therein.
What travesty and a blatant attack on Rep. McIver, singling her out for retribution while carrying out her responsibilities as a responsible lawmaker. The comparisons of how she is being treated compared to the Jan. 6th criminals speaks volumes. Thank you, Adam, for following this critically important case.
“When assessed against legitimate factors, [the rioters] were far more culpable than she is.” … “Delaney Hall, where at least three detained immigrants have died within eight months.”
The phrase "two Americas" in the context of the Kerner Commission stems from its famous 1968 warning that the United States was "moving toward two societies, one black, one white—separate and unequal."
For judges to endorse prosecution of McIver's spontaneous grab at an agent who was illegally restraining her colleague at all, let alone under the same statute as the January 6th insurrectionists, is a serious indication that it may not only be the administration lawyers who are behaving in vindictive and discriminatory fashion.
It is a chilling decision. For Rep McGiver and any elected official that takes substantial and appropriate actions to protect detained individuals. The basis of their detention is where greater scrutiny should be focused.
This is just awful. Thank you for keeping us updated. My heart goes out to the Congresswoman. That could be any elected official trying to investigate and protect her constituents.

Thank you, Adam. The persecution of McIver is obscene.
Get whoever Comey‘s lawyer was on board let him take this up
Thank you, Adam.
