Democratic Rep. LaMonica McIver, who is currently facing charges related to interfering with ICE officers at a detention facility, is facing strong pushback online over her line of questioning to ICE Acting Director Todd Lyons in a heated hearing Tuesday.
“How do you think Judgment Day will work for you with so much blood on your hands?” McIver asked Lyons during a hearing in which Democrats lashed out on multiple occasions against ICE and President Donald Trump’s immigration agenda in general while highlighting the deaths of Renee Good and Alex Pretti, both killed by federal immigration agents during altercations in Minneapolis in recent weeks.
Lyons responded, “I’m not going to entertain that question.”
“Of course not,” McIver said back. “Do you think you’re going to hell?”

House Committee on Homeland Security Chairman Andrew Garbarino interjected and reminded members of the “standards of decorum,” prompting McIver to respond by saying, “Mr. Chairman, I’m just asking a question. You guys are always talking about religion and the Bible.”
Fox News congressional correspondent Bill Melugin posted on X that audible groans could be heard in the room over McIver’s questions.
The exchange quickly went viral on social media, where conservatives took issue with McIver’s comments.
House Republicans, in a post on X, called the situation a “total meltdown” from McIver.
