ICE

The Intercept -   ICE detainees at the notorious Delaney Hall facility in New Jersey are being attacked with pepper spray and batons and have endured “scalding hot showers that have led to burns and blisters; worms in food; and [are] being denied medical care,” according to relatives and members of Congress who have accessed the facility.

Meanwhile, federal agents and state police have tear-gassed and beaten peaceful protesters outside the jail, which is operated by for-profit prison giant GEO Group.  This should be a national scandal. However, too many major corporate media outlets are downplaying the crisis at Delaney Hall or simply echoing the Trump administration’s message.
