Democrat lawmakers are finding themselves in hot water after a chaotic scene at a detention facility.
Now they’re trying to rewrite history despite video evidence.
And Democrat Congresswoman Bonnie Watson Coleman just unleashed one shocking profanity-laced tirade that left jaws on the floor.
Rep. Coleman denies video evidence
Last week, several Democrat lawmakers stormed the Delaney Hall Detention Center in Newark, New Jersey, where illegal aliens are being housed.
The Democrat lawmakers, including Representatives Bonnie Watson Coleman (D-NJ), LaMonica McIver (D-NJ), Robert Menendez (D-NJ), and Newark Mayor Ras Baraka, created a chaotic scene when they entered the facility without following proper protocols.
Video footage from the incident seems to show Rep. LaMonica McIver physically confronting federal agents – repeatedly shoving them and hitting them with her body.
The situation has gotten so serious that the Department of Justice has launched an investigation, and members of Congress are considering a resolution to censure the lawmakers involved.
Mayor Baraka was arrested last Friday for his involvement in the lawless incident.
But despite the video evidence, Rep. Coleman is now trying to deny what millions of Americans can see with their own eyes.
When confronted by a reporter on Thursday before an appropriations committee hearing, Coleman flatly denied that McIver assaulted the agents.
“She didn’t touch them,” Coleman claimed, before immediately contradicting herself. “She may have, like, pushed away to get them off of her, but she didn’t body slam anybody.”
Coleman then insisted it’s “a bunch of crap that they would think that a member of Congress would do something like that.”
According to Coleman, McIver was merely “saying ‘Get off me,'” and “that’s it.”
Coleman launches into profanity-laced, race-baiting tirade
When pressed on why the lawmakers stormed the facility in the first place, Coleman claimed they were denied access and then launched into an unhinged, profanity-filled rant.
“Bullsh*t!” Coleman reportedly exclaimed, before diving into a bizarre tirade about “white supremacy.”
“You know you’re living in an unamerican society with a unitarian government that abuses power on all levels and treats Congress members as if we are the enemy,” Coleman ranted. “You know who the enemy is? The enemy is the enemy of the people, and that’s the white supremacist that you’re talking about.”

This isn’t the first time Coleman has gone off the rails in recent days.
Just one day earlier, during a House hearing, Coleman directed a “hate-filled, race-baiting tirade” at Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
During her questioning, she didn’t even allow Kennedy to respond, instead using her entire five minutes to rant about “racist attacks” from the Trump administration.
When her time expired and Kennedy attempted to respond, Coleman reportedly shot back, “So has your legitimacy!”
Investigations continue following the incident
The incident at the detention facility has drawn significant attention, with multiple investigations now underway.
The footage contradicts Coleman’s version of events, showing McIver aggressively confronting the federal agents while the other lawmakers stood by.
The House is expected to vote on a censure resolution as early as next week.
Republican lawmakers have pointed out the stark contrast between how Democrats responded to the January 6 Capitol protests versus their reaction to Democrat lawmakers physically confronting federal agents.
Republican lawmakers have pointed to what they call a double standard in how these incidents are being treated compared to other confrontations with law enforcement.
The incident at the detention facility comes as the Biden-Harris administration faces increasing scrutiny over its handling of the border crisis and the detention of illegal aliens.
Coleman and her colleagues were reportedly at the facility advocating for the release of illegal aliens being detained there.
Mayor Baraka’s arrest last Friday has only intensified the political fallout from the incident, with many questioning why members of Congress who participated in the same actions haven’t faced similar consequences.
The Department of Justice has not yet announced whether any of the lawmakers will face charges for their role in the chaotic confrontation.
With several investigations ongoing and a censure resolution looming, this story is far from over.
