Democratic Rep. LaMonica McIver is charged with assaulting two officers in clash at New Jersey ICE detention center, a highly unusual move by the Justice Department.

Democratic strategist James Carville claimed on MSNBC that race was a major factor in the Department of Justice charging Rep. LaMonica McIver, D-N.J.

Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) filed a resolution on Wednesday to expel Rep. LaMonica McIver (D-NJ) from the House of Representatives following the assault charge brought against her earlier this week in connection with her confrontation with law enforcement outside a Newark immigration detention center.
