New Jersey Democrat Rep. LaMonica McIver appeared on Jen Psaki’s MSNBC show this week, whining about the “scary situation” of facing federal charges for allegedly assaulting law enforcement officers during an anti-ICE rally. McIver, who pleaded not guilty, claimed she “never thought [she] would be facing charges as a sitting congresswoman”—a stunning admission that perfectly encapsulates the left’s arrogant belief that they are immune to accountability.
Of course, McIver isn’t alone in her delusion. The liberal elite, from activists to politicians, have spent years breaking laws, inciting violence, and undermining American institutions while expecting zero repercussions. Whether it’s Antifa rioters escaping prosecution, corrupt bureaucrats weaponizing the justice system, or Democrats openly flouting immigration laws, the left operates under the assumption that rules don’t apply to them. Meanwhile, President Donald Trump and his supporters face relentless persecution for daring to challenge the establishment.
McIver’s crocodile tears about her family are particularly galling. “When they’re saying that you’re going to face 17 years in prison, I’m thinking about my daughter, who’s 9 years old. I’m thinking about my husband, my family. And it’s like, ‘Oh, my God, this is awful,’” she told Psaki. But where was this sympathy when Trump was dragged through years of bogus investigations, impeachments, and lawfare designed to bankrupt and imprison him? The hypocrisy is staggering.
The congresswoman’s case stems from a 2025 incident where she allegedly interfered with federal officers during a protest at an ICE detention center—a facility she visited under the guise of “congressional oversight.” Yet, if a conservative had done the same, the liberal media would be demanding maximum punishment. Instead, Psaki and MSNBC frame McIver as a victim, further proof of the left’s two-tiered justice system.
President Trump, meanwhile, has endured unprecedented political persecution, from the Russia hoax to the sham January 6 hearings, all while the real lawbreakers—like McIver—get softball interviews and fawning coverage. The contrast couldn’t be clearer: Democrats riot, obstruct, and assault without consequence, while Republicans are targeted for thought crimes.

Look, I never thought I'd be facing charges as a sitting congresswoman, but l'm not going to stop doing my job.
Great to talk with @jrpsaki about what's next and how we fight this moving forward. pic.twitter.com/jMWxTXMOTH

McIver’s case should serve as a wake-up call. If she truly believes in equality under the law, she should accept the same standard applied to Trump and his supporters. But don’t hold your breath—the left’s motto has always been “rules for thee, not for me.”
