Above the Law? Hakeem Jeffries Threatens Retaliation if Dems Who Stormed ICE Facility Face Consequences

[Twitchy] House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries is issuing threats of retaliation should any Democrats who recently stormed an ICE detention facility in New Jersey be held accountable for their actions. He’s blathering on about ’red lines’ and that there are ’clear lines that they dare not cross.’ Guess line crossing doesn't apply to Democrats.
Urges dems to continue to stomp tiny little feets.
