MSNBC's Chris Jansing interviewed Trump border czar Tom Homan regarding the assault charge against Rep. LaMonica McIver after a heated encounter at a Newark ICE facility. Homan criticized the congresswoman's actions, asserting that while lawmakers have oversight rights, they must adhere to proper protocols. He expressed concern over public safety, stating that the facility houses dangerous individuals, and emphasized that McIver's behavior was unprofessional. Democrats defended her, describing the charges as politically motivated, while Homan maintained that McIver had escalated the situation.
"Well, look, they have a right to be there for oversight, but there's a proper way to do it. Forcing your way in the facility, putting hands on an ICE officer, is not the way to do it, so I think she was out of line."
"I think it was politics over public safety. That's a facility where the worst of the worst are housed, we can't lose control of that facility."
