Elizabeth Cronise McLaughlin55

Thank you SO MUCH for being onsite.

GrumpHope22

Thank you for being there and showing how journalism supposed to look like. Be safe. Small token of gratitude:

Jessica Ellis21

Thinking many good thoughts hoping for your safety, thank you for this vital reporting!

Nor Dougherty17

Thanks, Marisa, for being there. Nuns truly do God’s work without a whole lot of acknowledgement (not that they’re looking for that). 💕💕🙏

Laura10

Yay, Jerry! Thanks for reporting, Marisa!

Corey Rayburn Yung10

I'm glad you're there, but stay safe!

Dr. O.7

There are armed, unidentified people threatening NJ citizens. Where are the state police?

Greg Todd6

Atlanta’s police chief said his department will not work with federal immigration officials to arrest or detain undocumented immigrants during the upcoming World Cup. And Chief Darin Schierbaum also said Tuesday that nobody will be arrested “just for being homeless”

Quiltybon6

Glad to see some more congressional reps there.

Cascadian Prepper.3

Stay safe ma'am we need you.

Stephie3

I appreciate you coming here to NJ! Crazy times... I am scared we will become the next MN.

CMHoskins2

Thanks for being on the ground reporting! Stay safe!

Noelle Schultz2

God bless you and stay safe🙏

I hope you stay safe. Thank you for going out there!

Honestly wouldn’t even know this was happening but for Bluesky

📚 John McAndrew 🌏🇺🇦26

Everyone available needs to get there stat. Remember when we all flooded airports in 2017 when Trump 1.0 tried a Muslim travel ban? Remember Minneapolis/St. Paul standing against ICE? This could be the next big battle. These hunger strikers deserve to know that we are supporting them.

JBParity10

The Status Coup interviews are great.

Dave Lalonde 🇨🇦10

The bottom line is 'obedience, or violence will be used against you'. By your government. Trump's administration is underwritten by his private army. I wouldn't be surprised if Flynn is somewhere in the chain of command. You'll eventually rediscover that you can't negotiate with terrorists.

Edward R. Murrow-ish 🎙️6

The more peaceful protestors that show up, the less credibility the cretins have.

I want to bury those motherfuckers in a prison for a lifetime.

And mainstream media will not report it

I'm not going to New Jersey soon but I bet the people of Minnesota would send some material aid if directed to a site comparable to standwithminnesota.com or other grassroots options.

Don Coriolis8

Honest question: are there any levers you can pull to hold these ghouls accountable? Because i am hearing a lot of (justified) condemnation but it looks like any form of actual enforcement is WAY off the table...i hope I'm wrong!

Quigley Accountability Project7

Articles of impeachment or just more talk?

Crabby Coach7

If the facility isn't operating in accordance with the law, you have every right to shut it down.

We have video of the entire thing. Please DM me @replamonica.bsky.social

ICE MUST BE ABOLISHED! PLEASE SAY THE WORDS

Delaney Hall is owned and operated by The GEO Group, a for-profit prison and government services company. Their website "commitments" is pure BS. "The GEO Group has always been committed to protecting the Human Rights of the persons entrusted to its care. Dr. George C. Zoley: Founder and CEO

Baker Owens3

Did you take a camera? People are apparently not very smart and have to literally see it to believe it.

mdaynes345.bsky.social2

Thank you for your dedication. Have you had any access to the detainees on the hunger strike? I know someone on the hunger strike who has been at Delaney for just about a year and obviously I’m very worried.

Blackavar2

Now tell us what you're going to DO about it.

Whitesheepranch9

Why isn't this front page news across the country? #ICE

wileynann.bsky.social5

Mikie Sherrill needs to send in the National Guard to protect the protestors who are allowed to be on public sidewalks!

rangersfan80.bsky.social4

They want the protesters to get violent that's why they're doing it.

kg1968.bsky.social4

Remember there is a payroll paper trail of ICE agents. And many videos of abuse. May take time, but accountability under a democratic administration will be inevitable.

grantsodiosa.bsky.social3

If they have jobs to do they could just do them. Instead they choose to attack peaceful protestors having some expectation that they can terrorize people at will with impunity. We may still have laws against domestic terrorism. Why are we not enforcing those laws??

Jinx2

ICE isn't abusing people over their immigration status - they are testing how to control CITIZENS. Preparation in plain sight. The Insurrectionists will be fighting to keep us OUT of the Capitol. America's "brand" is eroding under Trump. He's making crime more appealing than abiding by the law.

old yvette2

This is a horror show. My God, how is this America? And why aren’t those who have integrity, intelligence and power (not to mention big money) putting a stop to this? There’s gotta’ be some of those left - right?

CalleyCat2

ICE, getting ready for midterm election.

okay7.bsky.social2

We aren’t safe and we aren’t free any more.

@hochul needs to activate the NY NG to protect them. WTF is she waiting for? Someone to be murdered like in Minnesota?

tootall64.bsky.social2

Start "wacking" these Nazi fucks. What a weak ass people you are

@rebrandnuggets3

How do you have rancid water if all you have to do is connect to the municipal water? If the water is rancid, it's on purpose.

This is the Senator(Kim)who was picking up trash in the capital the day after tRump’s insurrectionist traitors stormed and desecrated the building. He's an amazing person and I would be proud if he was my Senator. Unfortunately, I live in Virginia and mine are just 2 old mediocre people.

732lighthouse.bsky.social10

Please know Sen Kim, law-abiding, well informed, patriotic constituents are extremely grateful for all you do‼️

Rarian Rakista8

Is Schumer going to do anything or just wag his finger? Does he even care when this happens to Democratic Senators? We need LBJ levels of pushback on this. Not seeing it.

TallyAnnaE ☮️🌊 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈💙🦋🐸7

Thank you Senator Kim for literally standing with your constituents, among other things.

Jane6

The Senator from New Jersey shouldn't be at a government facility in New Jersey; a facility he has the constitutional right to inspect? I'm not sure I follow MarkWayne's logic there.

just some guy [derogatory]5

Thank you and keep it up!

badPuppy5

So he's saying you shouldn't try to govern? That would make you a republican.

Melanie Mallon3

It's also literally your job to be there.

Christopher Nelson3

Screw Marquain. Not only did you have a right to be there, you had a responsibility to be there. You were voted to represent the people.

Serienya2

You conduct oversight. Drag his ass into testifying.

MovieEv2

it's a very poor employee who tells the people who pay his salary where they should be

Just Darling2

You’re a class act, Senator Kim! Grateful for your courage and hard work. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

laveaux420.bsky.social2

I’m thankful for politicians like you! Although I think you are definitely one of a kind!

@kathmandu513.gobirds.online13

So glad the Dem senators that voted for their "friend" were clear eyed about how Mullin would run DHS.

renajane.bsky.social9

ICE shouldn't have been there pepper spraying citizens. Andy Kim had every right to be there.

Martin Pollard9

Typical abuser mentality. "You made me punch you repeatedly in the face!" Toxic masculinity run amok.

m. hela fella8

Its a public street. Andy Kim has every right to be there.

It’s literally part of the job of our Congress to do oversight. Time to defund Mark Wayne Mullin and the Gestapo.

T...AM.R. 🇺🇲7

Federal judges will love Mullin's attack on 1A and the law that allows lawmakers to enter detention centers without notice.

sg1954.bsky.social5

Update: DHS Secretary Mullin defended Delaney Hall today. Detainees were served food with worms. His response: ‘This isn’t a Holiday Inn.’ GEO Group maxed out to Trump. This is what $1 billion buys.

I am SO sick of it all 🥺4

Mullin is a WHORE for this vile Administration. HOW DARE HE SAY THAT! 😡

ILuvPolitix3

When I asked AI to tell me the difference between ICE and Nazis, it told me Nazis didn't wear masks.

Jennie Lane3

But Ashli Babbitt was a victim.

DrunkEnough2

That sounds like “she deserved it.”

csbricker.bsky.social2

We have the right to peacefully protest. Mullin needs to read the constitution

Lisa Farrar2

They have a lot to learn.

Michael P. Scott2

Fuck these people! They can go straight to Hell!

baldnakedcosmo.bsky.social2

Mullin has no idea what the laws and protocols are. What a surprise, a trump appointee is a totally incompetent “yes man “.

dachjo.bsky.social2

What did we expect? Mullin is an asshole through and through. Power exposes that.

sweetniss.bsky.social2

He's an elected representative. He has every right to be there.

Antoine Doinel Jr, Sr2

Telling Trump bedtime stories before he falls to sleep in a second

Can someone explain Congressional oversight to the double-named doofus?

october krausch6

don't forget MI where folks went on strike last month at North Lake and in Pennsylvania too!

Gaby Goldstein6

States have a lot of authority to regulate detention facilities... NJ has some good ideas! Recent report from State Futures www.statefutures.org/research/iss...

Thanks for being there, Lex.

Thanks for including me Raelle! ICE is one horrible organization. The way they get to treat people however they want AND pay zero consequences is absolutely despicable! 🤬

Thank you Raelle❣️ We The People can't forget the human beings that are being held in the ICE detention camps! They inspire us and we give them hope that they won't be forgotten! They're not giving up and neither can we!! #CrushIce

@Loudmouthkid624

Thank you for including me, Raelle. The situation at Delaney Hall in Newark is terrifying. How can our government do this to people? #AbolishIce TT: @shaunderik

Maureen Berzanski 🧷🇺🇦🇺🇸🏳️‍🌈🟧🌊 🐾4

Excellent poem Raelle but I wish it was a happy one. Sadly, ICE continues to cause mayhem wherever they go. These detention centers are modern day concentration camps where people die due to conditions in them. Families have been separated. We need change Always grateful to be included

Rebecca E ❌👑4

I AM SO ANGRY!!! This is not the America I know and love. The treatment at Delaney PRISON is beyond inhumane. It is reminiscent of Nazi camps like Auschwitz and Buchenwald but without the ovens. #StopICE #StopDeportations #StopTheMadness 🤬😡🤬😱
