Jesse Watters Claims Immigrant Detainees Are on Hunger Strike ‘Because They Don’t Have Ethnic Food’

  • Department of Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin said only a handful of detainees at Delaney Hall ICE facility are refusing meals because they want ethnic food and told them they can return to their countries for such food, stating the facility is not a 'Holiday Inn'.
  • Hundreds of detainees at Delaney Hall have been on a hunger strike claiming poor conditions, while DHS maintains detainees receive three meals daily along with clean water and hygiene essentials, asserting that ICE detention standards exceed those of most U.S. prisons.
  • Anti-ICE protests at Delaney Hall have involved rioters blocking federal vehicles and assaulting federal officers, with some demonstrators arrested.
  • Democratic lawmakers including Senator Andy Kim and Governor Mikie Sherrill have criticized the detention center conditions, with Kim alleging he was pepper sprayed during protests.
