ICE Agents to Leave Site of Volatile Protests at Detention Center

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani returned fire to Markwayne Mullin on Thursday after the Homeland Security secretary threatened to halt the processing of international flights into the airports of sanctuary cities.

New Jersey’s governor called on federal immigration law enforcement at a detention center in Newark to de-escalate tensions between protesters and “act humanely,” while calling on demonstrators to protest peacefully outside the facility.

The governor announced plans to create protected protest zones at Delaney Hall.

Adriano Espaillat, a Washington Heights Democrat, was one of three Manhattan lawmakers who converged on the center Wednesday to demand the Trump administration shut it down and, in the interim, treat those held inside more humanely.
