YouTube Description
as posted by the channelRep. LaMonica McGyver, a first-term Democrat out of New Jersey, just got hit with federal charges for allegedly assaulting an ICE officer, but instead of backing down, she ran up the bag.
This clip from the latest NIGHT SCHOOL breaks down how a protest at Newark’s Delaney Hall immigrant detention center ended in chaos, arrests, and now an indictment. Mayor Ras Baraka got cuffed. The feds dropped his charges, but they came after McGyver instead.
Now she’s fighting back. Calling the case a political hit job, McGyver pled not guilty, and flipped the story. Her campaign just raised over $750K, most from grassroots donors across the country.
Host Marc Lamont Hill dives into what this moment says about Democratic cowardice on immigration, the weaponization of the justice system, and why McGyver’s resistance might spark a new wave of movement politics if the party steps up.
This is an excerpt from the latest episode of NIGHT SCHOOL, Marc Lamont Hill’s weekly breakdown of politics, culture, and power. To watch the FULL episode, look under the NIGHT SCHOOL playlist on Marc Lamont Hill's Official YouTube Channel.
