‘Worst Of The Worst’: Trump Admin Official Details ‘Circus’ Surrounding Democrats’ Attempt To Enter ICE Facility

Assistant Secretary of Homeland Security for Public Affairs Tricia McLaughlin said Friday on Fox News that Democrats “stormed” the gates of a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility in New Jersey housing MS-13 gang members.

ICE agents arrested Democrat Newark Mayor Ras Baraka after he attempted to join three other Democrat congressional lawmakers, reportedly for a scheduled tour of the Delaney Hall facility, according to NBC News. While joining Fox host Will Cain on “The Will Cain Show,” McLaughlin said the Democrats attempted to “get” individuals “out of the facility” as a bus full of detainees tried to get through the gate.

“There’s been for days protests outside of this ICE facility, Delaney Detention Hall, which was open just in May. So it’s very recent. It houses MS-13 gang members. It houses rapists, child predators, an MS-13 gang member, even a suspected terrorist. So these are really the worst of the worst in this facility,” McLaughlin said. “The fact that the Democrats are trying to get these individuals out of the facility. To set the scene, a bus full of detainees tried to get through the gate.”

“These Democrat politicians and protesters stormed that gate and got to the first security checkpoint. So when you’re seeing any of these people being restrained, it’s because they illegally broke into this facility,” McLaughlin added. “If a civilian tries to break into a detention facility, they will be physically restrained. Members of Congress also have to follow the law. Had they asked to take a tour of that facility, we would have happily facilitated that for them. You heard them themselves saying that the facility was in good shape.”
