Federal agents deployed pepper spray and beat back anti-ICE agitators outside the Delaney Hall detention center in New Jersey on Tuesday night, following days of chaos outside the privately run facility.

The confrontation, captured on video shared by FreedomNewsTV, shows the agitators trying to stop vehicles from leaving Delaney Hall in Newark. Authorities are seen attempting to stop agitators from obstructing vehicles and clearing them from the road.

The video shows the encounter turned physical as federal agents forcibly pushed back agitators who made contact with the hood of a vehicle trying to leave the facility. Some agents were also seen deploying pepper spray while others used batons against the agitators.

On Tuesday night, Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin addressed the latest confrontation in a post on X.

"ICE law enforcement officers were assaulted by anti-ICE rioters who sprayed law enforcement with an unknown chemical substance," Mullin wrote, adding that two individuals were arrested for allegedly assaulting, resisting and impeding federal officers.

The clashes extended a weekend protest over conditions for detainees in the facility, prompted by a reported hunger strike undertaken by the detainees themselves.

Mullin on Monday denied the claims, writing, "There is NO hunger strike at Delaney Hall. There are no subprime conditions."

During the days of demonstrations, prominent New Jersey Democrats came to the facility, including Sen. Andy Kim and Gov. Mikie Sherrill. While Kim was allowed entry to the facility, Sherrill was denied.

Democrats, including Sen. Cory Booker, D-N.J., rallied around Sherrill, criticizing ICE and the facility on social media.

Meanwhile, the Department of Homeland Security on Tuesday said, "We will NOT let rioters stop or slow @ICEgov down."

"While New Jersey sanctuary politicians and anti-ICE agitators chose to spend their Memorial Day weekend smearing law enforcement and rioting outside ICE’s Delaney Hall facility, our law enforcement continued to put their lives on the line to arrest murderers, pedophiles, and kidnappers," the department wrote on X, replying with a thread of posts and images of criminal illegal aliens they say have been arrested.

Laura Ingraham: It's not a protest

How a Catholic nun provides 'radical hospitality' outside Delaney Hall detention center

RNS

May 27, 2026

Sister Susan Francois, a member of the Sisters of St. Joseph of Peace, has been showing up at Delaney Hall, the immigrant detention facility in Newark, New Jersey, since May 2025. In late May 2026, detainees inside Delaney Hall started a hunger and labor strike, citing inhumane conditions at the Newark, New Jersey immigration detention center. Days later, protests intensified outside its gates. Francois documents her work along the way. This is a day in her life.

“Faith on the Immigration Frontline” is an RNS short-form documentary series about clergy and religious community members putting their faith to work on the front lines of America's immigration crisis. Each episode follows a single subject as they navigate detention, border enforcement and the human stakes of immigration policy — through pastoral care, faith and conscience.

Marco RUBIO Says AMERICA Is a CATHOLIC Country — Protestants Are FURIOUS

Mayor Brandon Johnson meets with Pope Leo, invites him to visit Chicago

Johnson said he thanked the first-ever Chicago born pope for his courage and moral stance against endless wars.

CHICAGO (WLS) -- Mayor Brandon Johnson met with Pope Leo XIV Thursday and invited him to visit Chicago in 2027.

Johnson and Pope Leo met privately Thursday for nearly an hour.

The mayor said he and the pope share ideals, including their stance against the U.S. war in Iran, and pushing back against actions carried out by the Trump administration during "Operation Midway Blitz."

"Of course we shared the legacy of leadership and organizing in civil rights in Chicago," Mayor Johnson said. "I believe he took that to heart. Ultimately, that is going to be his decision on whether or not his schedule is going to allow for it. Who would have thought that a middle school teacher, the son of a pastor, would be in the Vatican talking to the pope who has his roots in the city of Chicago? I believe that he was definitely appreciative of the warm exchange and invite and we will look forward to hosting Mass in Chicago."

Mayor Johnson and aldermen reflected on meeting the Chicago-born pope.

During the historic visit, they discussed politics, immigration, baseball and Chicago faith connections.

Johnson said the meeting brought him a sense of peace and comfort.

"I think the pastoral moment was the first question that he asked was, 'How's Chicago? How's Chicago?' And you know I was able to say that you know Chicago is strong," Johnson said.

The trip is funded in part by World Business Chicago, an economic development agency.

AI chatbots face major backlash over left-wing bias: ‘Can no longer be considered neutral and cannot be trusted’

By Brian Flood , Fox News
Published May 26, 2026, 2:51 p.m. ET

Artificial intelligence chatbots are relying on left-wing media and politically charged sources, making it difficult for the average American to trust them as a news source, critics say.

AI systems are widely known to sometimes “hallucinate” and generate false yet believable information that can quickly erode trust.

Some critics insist chatbots such as ChatGPT, Google Gemini and Claude provide information with a liberal slant, or push information from left-leaning news sources while silencing opposing views.

As more and more Americans rely on the technology, the right-leaning Media Research Center (MRC) has conducted studies in an attempt to determine if the chatbots should be relied upon — and they don’t find the results encouraging.

“We’re watching the next phase of media bias unfold in real time,” Media Research Center President David Bozell told Fox News Digital.

“Silicon Valley’s shiny new toys can no longer be considered neutral and cannot be trusted.”

ChatGPT, which is developed by OpenAI, insisted in January that nobody named Charlie Kirk was ever assassinated and declared no credible evidence or reporting could substantiate such a claim, according to the MRC.

Less than a month after she resigned from Congress in the face of a looming expulsion recommendation, former U.S. Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick said Monday she is a candidate to return to Washington.

Cherfilus-McCormick said she is seeking the Democratic nomination in the reconfigured 20th Congressional District, which is concentrated in central Broward County, after Florida Republicans changed the map of Florida congressional districts.

She said she isn’t deterred by four other candidates who are already running — or by the prospect that U.S. Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz might decide to run in the same district. Wasserman Schultz’s Broward district was blown up by the new Republican reconfiguration of the congressional map.

“The strongest candidate in the race is me,” Cherfilus-McCormick said. “I never said I wasn’t running.”

The former congresswoman made it clear she doesn’t care for Wasserman Schultz, the senior Democratic member of Florida’s congressional delegation. When she was first elected, in a 2022 special election to fill the vacancy left by the late U.S. Rep. Alcee Hastings, Cherfilus-McCormick said Wasserman Schultz was dismissive when she arrived in Washington.

“One of the first things that ever happened when I came into Congress, she told me I wouldn’t be in Congress for more than 5 minutes, and here we are, five years still fighting. So I wish everyone well, but what I know is that in our district we’ll be fighting and we’ll make sure that the Black voice, as well as everybody’s voice is not diluted, and that’s what this is about, to make sure that everyone’s voice is being heard.”

Cherfilus-McCormick made her comments in response to reporters’ questions just before a gathering of members from about 20 Broward Democratic clubs, organized by Barbara Effman, president of the West Broward Democratic Club. Effman is a longtime Wasserman Schultz supporter.

Wasserman was the evening’s major speaker and arrived at the event as reporters were talking to Cherfilus-McCormick. The two didn’t cross paths.

Markwayne Mullin tells ICE hunger-strikers who want 'ethnic food' to 'go back to their country'

Story by Peter Rubinstein • 11h

Department of Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin channeled the same anti-immigrant rhetoric as Trump on Wednesday, claiming that the New Jersey ICE facility detainees on hunger strike are only doing so because they want "ethnic food."

"There was only a handful of individuals that was refusing to eat because they want their ethnic group, or their ethnic-right food. Well, they can go back to their country and get whatever food they want," Mullin said during a televised Cabinet meeting. “The fact is, we’re giving them the calories they want. This isn’t Holiday Inn.”

His comments came after Democratic members of Congress who visited Delaney Hall in Newark said detainees are being given small portions of food that "very often" contain maggots. U.S. Rep. Adriano Espaillat described the conditions as "inhumane" and vowed to shut the center down.

Protesters have been demonstrating for days and asserting that detainees at the New Jersey facility are on a hunger strike.

U.S. Rep. Jerry Nadler, a Manhattan Democrat, said that the only medication they receive is Tylenol.

The Newark Police Department's (NPD) decision to stand down and refuse requests for assistance at the Delaney Hall detention facility is a direct reflection of a deep, ongoing political and operational conflict between New Jersey local/state officials and federal immigration authorities.

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) publicly criticized the move in a statement, noting:

"Local police have refused to answer calls to help our law enforcement. We will not allow violent rioters to slow ICE down."

The situation boils down to a stark division over jurisdiction, local "sanctuary" laws, and escalating clashes at the facility.

Why the Newark Police Department Stood Down

The NPD's refusal to intervene aligns with local governance and a broader pushback against federal immigration operations in the state:The Washington Post

Sanctuary Policies: Newark and New Jersey have strict policies restricting local law enforcement from cooperating with federal immigration enforcement (ICE). Local officials argue that deploying city police resources to defend a private, federal immigration facility goes against municipal directives.The Washington Post
Political Alignment: Newark Mayor Ras Baraka has been a vocal opponent of the facility, previously attempting to send city fire and code enforcement officials to inspect it, only to be blocked by federal authorities. Mayor Baraka recently called on New Jersey Governor Mikie Sherrill to launch an investigation into the facility. NJ Spotlight News
The State Law Context: New Jersey passed a law banning the operation of private immigration detention centers. However, a federal legal challenge struck down the ban, allowing ICE and the private prison company GEO Group to reopen the 1,000-bed Delaney Hall facility. Local authorities view the facility's continued operation as an overreach against state intent. The Guardian

The Broader Crisis at Delaney Hall

The police department's refusal to assist comes during a week of intense turmoil at the facility, driven by a reported hunger strike and severe clashes outside the gates:

The Hunger and Work Strike: Approximately 300 detainees signed a public letter alleging "deplorable" and "inhumane" conditions, insufficient medical care, and small food portions contaminated with maggots. Visiting Democratic members of Congress corroborated reports of medical neglect, citing detainees with untreated cancer or suspected breast lumps.The Guardian
Federal Denials: DHS and Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin have fiercely denied the existence of a hunger strike or subprime conditions, labeling the allegations "smears" and a "political stunt." The Guardian
Violent Clashes: Protests have escalated, with federal agents deploying pepper spray and pepper balls into crowds. High-profile figures, including U.S. Senator Andy Kim, reported being pepper-sprayed by federal agents during an attempted oversight visit. Houston Chronicle
Recent Arrests: DHS confirmed that federal authorities arrested at least two protesters for assaulting, resisting, and impeding federal officers, accusing them of spraying law enforcement with an unknown chemical substance.

Because local police are staying out of the conflict, security at the perimeter remains entirely under the control of helmeted, armed federal ICE agents and GEO Group personnel.

'We Have to Tell the Mayor it's Not OK' - Jewish New Yorkers Protest Rise in Antisemitism

Mistaken Zeal - Maranatha Our Lord Is Coming - May 28

Maranatha Our Lord Is Coming: Mistaken Zeal, April 28, by Ellen G White

Clash Of Minds

Apr 27, 2025

For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge. Romans 10:2.

There is a noisy zeal, without aim or purpose, which is not according to knowledge, which is blind in its operations and destructive in its results. This is not Christian zeal. Christian zeal is controlled by principle and is not spasmodic. It is earnest, deep, and strong, engaging the whole soul and arousing to exercise the moral sensibilities.

The salvation of souls and the interests of the kingdom of God are matters of the highest importance. What object is there that calls for greater earnestness than the salvation of souls and the glory of God? There are considerations here which cannot be lightly regarded. They are as weighty as eternity. Eternal destinies are at stake. Men and women are deciding for weal or woe. Christian zeal will not exhaust itself in talk, but will feel and act with vigor and efficiency. Yet Christian zeal will not act for the sake of being seen. Humility will characterize every effort and be seen in every work. Christian zeal will lead to earnest prayer and humiliation, and to faithfulness in home duties. In the family circle will be seen the gentleness and love, benevolence and compassion, which are ever the fruits of Christian zeal....

Oh, how few feel the worth of souls! How few are willing to sacrifice to bring souls to the knowledge of Christ! There is much talking, much professed love for perishing souls; but talk is cheap stuff. It is earnest Christian zeal that is wanted—a zeal that will be manifested by doing something. All must now work for themselves, and when they have Jesus in their hearts they will confess Him to others. No more could a soul who possesses Christ be hindered from confessing Him than could the waters of Niagara be stopped from flowing over the falls.

Eternal life should engage the deepest interest of every Christian. To be a co-worker with Christ and the heavenly angels in the great plan of salvation! What work can bear any comparison with this! From every soul saved there comes to God a revenue of glory to be reflected upon the one saved and also upon the one instrumental in his salvation.

How a Family of 4 Lives on $225,000 a Year in Washington Heights

By Eliza Shapiro

Photographs by Bess Adler May 25, 2026

How can people possibly afford to live in one of the most expensive cities on the planet? It’s a question New Yorkers hear a lot, often delivered with a mix of awe, pity and confusion.

We surveyed hundreds of New Yorkers about how they spend, splurge and save. We found that many people — rich, poor or somewhere in between — live life as a series of small calculations that add up to one big question:

Ellen Hagan grew up in a small town in Kentucky, and moved to New York City as quickly as she could after she graduated from college. She arrived a few weeks before Sept. 11, and tried to get her bearings in a city turned upside down.

She found a group of fellow young artists and writers who wanted to take advantage of everything they could in the city, on very limited budgets. They went to poetry readings and dance parties, and rented tiny apartments in the East Village.

All the while, Ms. Hagan was diligent about saving money, even when she had very little of it.

“I didn’t know what I was saving for, but I knew I wasn’t going to have a job that would give me a pension,” she said. “I wanted to make enough money to live the New York existence I was dreaming of.”

David Bass: Christian J. Pinto Interview | Vatican II Spiritual Evolution & Luciferian New Age

The Real Reveal

May 25, 2026

What is the connection between Vatican II and the New Age Movement?

Tonights guest is Christian J. Pinto, director and producer of American Jesuits: A History of Jesuitism in the United States.

We draw on his expertise in research about the Jesuit order to determine why Jesuit author Teilhard de Chardin was known as the “Father of the New Age”. How did his alleged involvement with the “missing link” hoax in 1912 (known as The Piltdown Man) relate to the overarching agenda to connect science with spirituality and push the gnostic belief in Spiritual Evolution beyond the Creator.

This episode also covers:

Vatican II

Globalisation

Ecumenism

Adam Weishaupt (Enlightenment beliefs)

Jesuit Theatre and Tactics

Transhumanism (Evolutionary Materialism meets Mysticism)
