SHOCK: Here Are the Republicans Who Helped Democrats Kill Motion to Censure Rep. LaMonica McIver After She Was Charged For Assaulting Federal Agents

September 3, 2025

Five House Republicans helped Democrats kill a motion to censure Democrat Rep. LaMonica McIver (NJ) on Wednesday.

GOP Congressman Clay Higgins forced a censure vote on LaMonica McIver after she was charged with assaulting federal agents at an ICE facility in May.

Every Democrat, with the help of five insufferable Republicans, killed the motion.

The five Republican lawmakers included: Don Bacon, Mike Flood, Dave Joyce, Mike Turner and David Valadao.

Politico reported:

Some House Republicans joined every Democrat in voting to sink an effort to censure Rep. LaMonica McIver over her involvement in a chaotic May scuffle outside an immigration detention center.

Rep. Clay Higgins (R-La.) forced the vote to formally reprimand McIver and remove her from her position on the House Homeland Security Committee, a handful of his GOP colleagues had little appetite for moving forward with the punishment.

Five Republicans — Reps. Don Bacon and Mike Flood of Nebraska, Dave Joyce and Mike Turner of Ohio and David Valadao of California — joined every Democrat in voting to table the measure, while two Republicans — Reps. Andrew Garbarino of New York and Nathaniel Moran of Texas — voted present.

LaMonica McIver verbally abused and physically assaulted federal agents at a detention facility in Newark in May.

ICE bodycam footage revealed Rep. LaMonica McIver was verbally abusing federal agents and threatening to destroy their careers.

“I touch whoever I want motherf*cker!” McIver shouted.

WATCH:

In June, a federal grand jury returned a 3-count indictment charging Democrat Rep. LaMonica McIver with forcibly impeding and interfering with federal law enforcement officers at the Delaney Hall detention center in Newark.

McIver is facing a maximum of 17 years in prison for all three counts.

McIver pleaded not guilty.
