New Jersey Rep. LaMonica McIver (D) butted heads with the chair of the House Oversight Committee on Tuesday after she asked the acting director of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement whether he expects to "go to hell" over what is happening under his watch.

Given her five minutes to question acting director Todd Lyons as Democratic lawmakers tried to get straight answers from Department of Homeland Security officials, McIver set up the Donald Trump official with, “So, Mr. Lyons, I've heard my colleagues ask many questions over and over again, and you cannot answer them. So let me ask you some questions that you may be able to answer: Mr. Lyons, do you consider yourself a religious man?”

“Yes, ma'am,” he replied.

“Okay. Well, how do you think Judgment Day will work for you with so much blood on your hands?” she pressed, which led the startled Lyon’s to fire back, “I'm not going to entertain that question.”

“Okay, of course not,” she quickly replied. “Do you think you're going to hell, Mr. Lyons?”

‘I'm not going to answer — “ Lyons attempted as she talked over him with, “Of course not. How many government —.”

“Gentle lady will suspend. The gentle lady will suspend,” acting Chair Rep. Andrew Garbarino (R-NY) exclaimed as he brought down his gavel.

As she protested, he spoke over her and stated, “The issues we're debating here are important to ones that members feel deeply about. While vigorous disagreement is part of the legislative process, members are reminded that we must adhere to established standards of decorum and debate. The witnesses are here voluntarily, and I will continue to remind, continue to remind members that while oversight is important, aggressively attacking those witnesses personally is inappropriate and not in keeping with the traditions of our committee.”

"Mr. Chairman, I'm just asking a question,” McIver innocently responded. “You all, you guys are always talking about religion here in the Bible. I mean, it's okay for me to ask a question, right? But let me continue on ––I got your note.”

The announcement by America’s Health Insurance Plans (AHIP), which includes CVS Health’s Aetna, Humana, Cigna, Centene and an array of Blue Cross and Blue Shield plans as members, comes ahead of the first meeting of the reconstituted Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, which now has new members chosen by U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a vaccine critic. “Health plans are committed to maintaining and ensuring affordable access to vaccines,” AHIP said in a statement Wednesday. “Health plan coverage decisions for immunizations are grounded in each plan’s ongoing, rigorous review of scientific and clinical evidence, and continual evaluation of multiple sources of data.” The move by AHIP is good news for millions of Americans at a time of year when they flock to drugstores, pharmacies, physician’s offices and outpatient clinics to get their seasonal flu and Covid shots. Kennedy’s changes to U.S. vaccine policy have created confusion across the country over whether certain vaccines long covered by insurance would continue to be. AHIP has now provided some clarity for millions of Americans. “Health plans will continue to cover all ACIP-recommended immunizations that were recommended as of September 1, 2025, including updated formulations of the COVID-19 and influenza vaccines, with no cost-sharing…
