REPORT: Lamont McClure & Carol Obando-Derstine back anti-ICE agenda

May 5, 2025

At a “rally” on Saturday with socialist Bernie Sanders and self-described “Bernie bro” Chris Deluzio, one of the speakers screamed “f**k ICE” after radical Susan Wild’s remarks and was met with cheers from the crowd.

And a report exposes that radicals Lamont McClure and Carol Obando-Derstine actually agree with this dangerous stance.

As Northampton County Executive, McClure “enacted strong policies opposing ICE,” while “Obando-Derstine is closely aligned with Susan Wild, a member of Congress known for advocating against ICE-related measures.”

“Voters have made it clear they want nothing to do with any agenda that puts criminal illegal immigrants first. But still, extreme Democrats like Lamont McClure and Carol Obando-Derstine are shouting ‘f**k ICE’ to an applause. Pennsylvania Democrats have completely lost their minds.” – NRCC Spokeswoman Maureen O’Toole

[…]

Lamont McClure, a Democratic politician serving as the Executive of Northampton County, Pennsylvania, and Carol Obando-Derstine, a Democratic political activist and community organizer based in Pennsylvania, share similar views to McClure’s. As Northampton County Executive, he enacted strong policies opposing ICE. Meanwhile, Obando-Derstine is closely aligned with Susan Wild, a member of Congress known for advocating against ICE-related measures.

McClure, who announced in March he would be running in PA-07 against Republican Ryan Mackenzie, has been a strong advocate for an anti-ICE agenda. In January, a violent criminal illegal immigrant was released from prison, prompting ICE to speak out against the incident, saying they were “forced to arrest this violent criminal outside the prison.” Officials explained it could’ve been “safer and more efficient” if not for McClure’s radical policy.

“Extremist Lamont McClure’s far-left immigration agenda is a threat to Pennsylvanians’ safety, and voters will reject him because of it,” O’Toole said.

Meanwhile, Obando-Derstine launched a campaign for Pennsylvania’s 7th District, challenging Mackenzie. She received an endorsement from Wild, the former Democratic incumbent who lost to Mackenzie in the previous election. Wild herself has also championed an anti-ICE agenda.
