Democratic lawmakers and activists stormed an ICE detention center in New Jersey last week to protest the detention of illegal immigrants – including MS-13 gang members and convicted child rapists. Video shows politicians shoving federal agents while demanding access to the facility housing violent criminals awaiting deportation.
The Delaney Hall detention center holds murderers, terrorists, and MS-13 members according to Homeland Security officials. One detainee arrested days earlier had active warrants for violent crimes. Protesters nevertheless chanted slogans comparing ICE to “Nazis” while blocking security gates and medical vehicles.
An activist defending the detainees declared even child rapists “deserve dignity” during heated exchanges with reporters. This shocking defense of predators sparked outrage online, with critics noting many detainees face charges for brutal crimes against American citizens.
The White House condemned the stunt as “dangerous political theater” that endangered officers and detainees. Footage reveals protesters physically attacking federal agents who tried securing the facility. Newark’s mayor was arrested for trespassing after ignoring repeated warnings to leave restricted areas.
Clergy members later joined the chaos, blocking access gates while singing hymns. They prevented families from visiting detained relatives and allegedly stopped an ambulance from entering the compound. Homeland Security officials called it manipulation tactics to paint criminals as victims.
New security barricades now surround the facility after days of chaos. Critics ask why Democrats prioritize shielding violent illegal immigrants over protecting border communities. The detainees in question include MS-13 members linked to beheadings and child traffickers convicted of horrific abuses.
These protests reveal the radical Left’s true agenda – putting criminal aliens before public safety. While activists weep over detention conditions, they ignore the broken families and graves left by these predators. Their virtue signaling endangers every neighborhood these criminals might infiltrate.
Americans deserve leaders who enforce laws rather than riot for lawbreakers. The party that stormed federal facilities to defend gang rapists can’t claim to care about justice. November’s election will decide whether we protect our borders or surrender to mobs chanting for open jails.
