Newark’s Democratic Mayor Ras Baraka was arrested Friday after storming a federal ICE facility with far-left lawmakers. The group ignored warnings from Homeland Security agents, forcing authorities to take action. This reckless stunt shows how radical politicians put open borders over public safety.
Baraka defiantly trespassed at Delaney Hall, an ICE detention center in Newark, alongside Congress members Bonnie Wasman and Macyver. They claimed to be conducting an “oversight visit” but refused to follow basic rules. Agents repeatedly ordered them to leave before making arrests. Lawlessness from elected officials can’t be tolerated.
U.S. Attorney Alina Habba confirmed Baraka deliberately broke the law, stating “NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW.” ICE facilities exist to protect Americans by enforcing immigration rules. These Democrats think borders are optional and laws don’t apply to them. Their disrespect for officers doing tough jobs is appalling.
Baraka’s arrest comes as he runs for New Jersey governor—a desperate publicity grab. He’s using taxpayer-funded chaos to push pro-illegal immigrant talking points. Conservatives know real leaders don’t attack law enforcement for headlines. They secure communities instead of coddling criminals.
The facility has proper permits, despite false claims from activists. DHS confirmed all electrical, plumbing, and fire codes were met. Liberals spread lies to smear ICE because they hate border security. Facts don’t matter when you’re pushing an open-borders agenda.
While Democrats play games, ICE agents risk their lives removing violent offenders. Over 70% of ICE arrests involve convicted criminals. These radicals want to empty detention centers, putting drug dealers and gang members back on streets. Americans deserve safety, not political theater.
Newark residents are fed up with leaders prioritizing illegals over citizens. Crime rates soared under Baraka’s soft-on-crime policies. Now he’s wasting time protecting detainees instead of fixing his city. Working families see through this nonsense—they want jobs, not jihad against ICE.
Conservatives stand with police and border agents defending our nation. The rule of law keeps communities safe. Democrats’ lawless stunt failed. November’s election will fire these clowns and restore sanity. America first—always.
