Illegals/Criminals complained about food and abuse at Newark Detention Center

Far-left agitators assault federal agents at Newark ICE facility

Sherrill Admits Delaney Hall Protests Drew Outside Agitators

What started as a protest over conditions at Delaney Hall in Newark has turned into something much bigger. The scene outside the ICE detention facility has turned into a loud, messy clash between competing political groups, with state officials now saying outside activists are helping drive the unrest.

The protest picked up steam after detainees wrote an open letter claiming they were being mistreated inside the center. They alleged physical and psychological abuse, along with bad food and a lack of medical care. The Department of Homeland Security pushed back fast, saying the claims did not match what was being served inside. Officials released menus showing detainees receive three meals a day, including items like chicken fajitas and Salisbury steak.

Tensions boiled over earlier in the week when federal agents were reportedly assaulted by agitators. After that, Democrat Gov. Mikie Sherrill ordered the New Jersey State Police to take over security. She said the move was needed to protect demonstrators from what she called an “ICE surge.”

By Saturday, the area around Delaney Hall looked more like a fortified zone than a protest site. Large orange plastic barriers and metal fencing surrounded the building. State officials also said much of the unrest was being fueled by people coming in from outside New Jersey. State Attorney General Jennifer Davenport said five of the six people arrested by state police this week were not from the state.

It's not a Holiday Inn.

Hunger Strike at Delaney Hall - Illegals wanted an ethnic menu

Cory Booker Lies About Hunger Strike, DHS Mullin Reveals Illegals Were Demanding Ethnic Food

Democrats have a well-worn routine when it comes to immigration enforcement. Obstruct federal agents at every opportunity. Manufacture confrontations.

Then sprint to the nearest camera and fundraising page, howling about human rights violations that conveniently never hold up to scrutiny. It’s dishonest. It’s calculated. And the American people are catching on.

The latest installment comes courtesy of New Jersey, where a whole circus of Democratic politicians apparently decided that Memorial Day weekend — when most Americans are laying wreaths and remembering the fallen — was prime time to advocate for detained illegal aliens. Priorities, right?

Let’s cut straight to it. Senator Booker told the American public that detainees at Newark’s Delaney Hall facility were on a hunger strike over deplorable conditions. Bold claim. DHS Secretary Mullin didn’t dance around his response: “There is NO hunger strike at Delaney Hall. There are no subprime conditions.” He called the entire spectacle “nothing more than a political stunt by New Jersey sanctuary politicians for fundraising clicks.”

So what was actually happening inside Delaney Hall? A handful of detainees were refusing meals because they wanted different food on the menu. Not a hunger strike. Not a human rights crisis. A cafeteria complaint. You genuinely cannot make this stuff up.

During a cabinet meeting, Secretary Mullin spelled out the situation and delivered the line that deserves to be framed: “They say that it’s because they’re on a hunger strike… because they want their ethnic right food. Well, they can go back to their country and get whatever food they want… this isn’t Holiday Inn.”

New Jersey Democrats put on another show at ICE facility

New Jersey Democrats stage Memorial Day spectacle at Newark ICE facility — and DHS isn't having it

New Jersey Gov. Mikie Sherrill showed up at an Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention center in Newark on Monday and was turned away at the door. Homeland Security called the visit a political stunt. Sherrill called it oversight. The facts suggest something closer to theater.

Sherrill, a Democrat, arrived at Delaney Hall on Memorial Day alongside Sen. Andy Kim and Reps. Rob Menendez Jr., Nellie Pou, and LaMonica McIver, all Democrats, demanding access to the facility amid an ongoing detainee hunger strike and days of protests outside. ICE denied them entry.

A DHS spokesperson told The Hill the visit was "nothing more than a political stunt on Memorial Day when visitation is currently suspended due to riots outside in the facility."

The timing and circumstances tell a story the governor's press releases leave out.

Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin denied on social media that any hunger strike was taking place and said the facility did not have "subprime conditions." He accused the New Jersey Democrats of "smearing ICE law enforcement."

Cornhusker Clink

DHS Opens New ICE Detention Center in Nebraska

The Trump administration is opening its third version of the “Alligator Alcatraz” state-run migrant detention center in Nebraska — this one dubbed the “Cornhusker clink.”

“Thanks to Governor Pillen for his partnership to help remove the worst of the worst out of our country. If you are in America illegally, you could find yourself in Nebraska’s Cornhusker Clink,” Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said in a statement.

The new facility’s opening is all part of the administration’s push to massively expand ICE detention capacity with a goal of holding 100,000 illegal migrants at a single time.

The Trump administration has already opened the doors to “Alligator Alcatraz,” a 2,000-bed detention center in the heart of Florida’s Everglades surrounded by alligators and pythons, and the “Speedway Slammer,” a 1,000-bed space at the Miami Correctional Facility, near Bunker Hill, Ind., in the Grissom Joint Air Reserve Base.

On Sunday, the “Lonestar Lockup” mega-facility opened at Fort Bliss in El Paso, Texas — with capacity for 1,000 beds and the ability to add 4,000 more.
