议员在德莱尼厅拘留中心就移民执法问题爆发冲突
议员们在众议院司法委员会听证会上就移民执法以及新泽西州德莱尼厅拘留中心的状况爆发激烈争执。比尔·梅卢金报道称,共和党人驳斥他们所谓的移民海关执法局(ICE)对待被拘留者“虚假叙事”,而民主党人则在“特别报道”中提及该设施中据称存在的不人道待遇和绝食抗议事件。

一名由前总统乔·拜登任命的联邦法官站在特朗普政府一边,拒绝驳回针对一名众议院民主党议员的诉讼,该议员被控袭击联邦移民执法人员。
美国第三巡回上诉法院的三名法官中有两人驳回了针对新泽西州民主党众议员拉莫妮卡·麦基弗的司法部(DOJ)案件,该案件源于2025年在新泽西州纽瓦克的移民海关执法局设施内发生的一起事件。
2025年5月,一群民主党官员未经通报就访问德莱尼厅拘留中心,随后局势陷入混乱,最终导致联邦议员与移民海关执法局特工之间发生肢体对峙,纽瓦克市长拉斯·巴拉卡被捕。麦基弗面临三项指控,包括袭击联邦官员和妨碍公务。

麦基弗试图驳回此案,辩称她享有起诉豁免权,因为其行为属于国会议员的官方职责范畴。
她还指责司法部对她进行不公平的针对性打击,其国会办公室称这些指控是“报复性的”。
法官以“报复性”为由驳回对基尔马尔·阿布雷戈·加西亚的走私指控后,司法部誓言上诉
但由拜登任命的法官辛迪·钟和特朗普任命的法官斯特凡诺斯·比巴斯作出的2比1裁决指出,麦基弗提出的立法豁免抗辩在三项指控中的两项上不成立,第三项指控被发回下级法院进一步审理。

法庭文件显示,麦基弗据称“用前臂猛击”一名试图逮捕巴拉卡的联邦官员。就该项指控而言,联邦上诉法院同意下级法院的裁决,即她“涉嫌干预市长有争议的逮捕行为,与宪法保护的任何立法职能没有可认知的关联”。

第二项指控称,麦基弗用双臂“在返回德莱尼厅安全区域时击打一名执法人员”。
两位法官写道:“与第一项指控中的行为一样,推搡和强行击打他人的行为明确不属于立法行为:它们并非立法程序不可或缺的组成部分。”

法官托马斯·安布罗在异议意见中写道:“当行政部门官员阻止议员进入国土安全部设施时,她被剥夺了有效开展监督视察的途径。”
麦基弗本人在一份声明中表示,“法院的判决是错误的”。

“今天的判决打击了这一权力,并助长了特朗普政府继续迫害我们最脆弱的社区、那些试图保护他们的人,以及任何敢于问责总统及其走狗的人。我不会向本届政府屈服。我们正在探索所有可能的选择。本届政府无法阻止我履行职责或坚持正义。这场斗争还没有结束,”麦基弗说道。

Trump scores federal court win against House progressive accused of assaulting ICE
August 26, 2026 1:39pm EDT / Fox News
Biden- and Trump-appointed judges ruled McIver cannot get the case thrown out on legislative immunity grounds

Lawmakers clash over immigration enforcement at Delaney Hall Detention Center
Lawmakers clash at a House Judiciary Committee hearing over immigration enforcement and conditions at New Jersey’s Delaney Hall Detention Center. Bill Melugin reports as Republicans reject what they call ‘false narratives’ about ICE’s treatment of detainees, while Democrats point to alleged inhumane conditions and hunger strikes at the facility on ‘Special Report.’

A federal judge appointed by former President Joe Biden is siding with the Trump administration in refusing to dismiss a case against a House Democrat accused of assaulting federal immigration officers.
Two of the three judges on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit refused to dismiss the Department of Justice (DOJ) case against Rep. LaMonica McIver, D-N.J., stemming from a 2025 incident at an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility in Newark, New Jersey.
An unannounced visit to the Delaney Hall detention center by a group of Democratic officials devolved into chaos in May 2025 that culminated in a physical standoff between federal lawmakers and ICE agents and the arrest of Newark Mayor Ras Baraka. McIver was charged with three counts, including assaulting and impeding federal officers.

She attempted to get the case thrown out, arguing that she is immune from prosecution because her actions were part of her official duties as a member of Congress.
She also accused the DOJ of unfairly singling her out, with her congressional office calling the charges “vindictive.”

But the 2-1 decision, made by Biden-appointed Judge Cindy Chung and Trump-appointed Judge Stephanos Bibas, stated that McIver’s argument of legislative immunity would not stand for two of the three counts, while the third count was sent back to a lower court for further review.

Court documents say McIver allegedly “slammed her forearm” into a federal officer trying to arrest Baraka. On that count, the federal appellate court agreed with a lower court decision that her “alleged intervention into the Mayor’s questionable arrest had no cognizable connection to any legislative function” protected by the Constitution.

The second count alleged that McIver used both of her forearms to “strike [an officer] as she returned inside of the secured area of Delaney Hall.”
The two judges wrote, “Like the acts charged in Count One, the acts of pushing past and forcibly striking someone are unambiguously non-legislative: they are not integral to the legislative process.”

Judge Thomas Ambro wrote in dissent, “When an Executive Branch official prevents a Member from entering a DHS facility, she is denied effective access to an oversight inspection.”
McIver herself said in a statement that “the court got it wrong.”

“Today’s decision chills that authority and emboldens the Trump administration to continue persecuting our most vulnerable communities, those who try to defend them, and anyone who dares hold the president or his lackeys accountable. I will not fold to this administration. We are exploring every possible option. The administration will not stop me from doing my job or standing for what is right. This is not over,” McIver said.
