In part two of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, you know Democrats are out of ammo when they play the "God card". In a mostly soporific Tuesday House Homeland Committee hearing called amid the widespread public outcry over Customs and Border Protection agents’ killing of Alex Pretti, Rep. LaMonica McIver (D-NJ) managed to set the whole room astir. She asked acting ICE Chief Todd Lyons whether he’s religious, reacting with surprise when he responded that he is. “How do you think Judgment Day will work for you, with so much blood on your hands?” she asked. “I’m not gonna entertain that question, ma’am,” he responded, shaking his head. “Of course not,” McIver retorted, then: “Do you think you’re going to hell, Mr. Lyons?” she asked, prompting an audible reaction in the room. Chairman Andrew Garbarino (R-NY) jumped in at that point, reminding McIver of hearing decorum rules.
