New Jersey police used tear gas to disperse demonstrators outside the Delaney Hall ICE facility amid protests over alleged mistreatment of detainees, with state police establishing checkpoints and protest zones.

1. A limited number did not comply with repeated requests to clear a safe passage for the vehicles and took dangerous actions, including deploying fireworks and throwing gas canisters at law enforcement, that put everyone in harm's way.
Todd Blanche

1. Assault a federal officer, you'll be held accountable.
2. These riots are clearly not 'peaceful protests' as you can see from the photos of these horrific wounds.

1. An increased ICE surge in the area outside of Delaney Hall is a threat to public safety. We know that lives would be at risk were that to happen. And I will not accept that risk.
2. We need to focus on advocating for better conditions for the detainees, for their families, and ultimately, for the closure of Delaney Hall.
3. Our top priority is public safety, and we need to take this opportunity to lower the temperature.
4. It has grown unsafe, and that's completely unacceptable.
Andy Kim
Democratic Party
1. But what we see is, unfortunately, the normalization of this violence in America.
2. These images – what happened – it honestly felt very familiar because we've seen it online. We've seen it on TV. To see it in person is surreal.
New Jersey State Police
1. Our team was denied the ability to conduct a full inspection of the facility and was allowed to conduct only a food service inspection.
Markwayne Mullin
US Homeland Security Department
1. Anyone who assaults law enforcement will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
2. We support every Americans constitutional right to peacefully protest. No one has the right to RIOT and ASSAULT law enforcement.
Lauren Bis
US Homeland Security Department
1. No lawbreakers in the history of human civilization have been better treated than illegal aliens. They are provided 3 meals a day, medical care, and receive full due process.
2. Sanctuary politicians are spreading categorically false smears about ICE's Delaney Hall facility in New Jersey. These types of smears are inciting violent riots outside the ICE facility in New Jersey.
Alex Minogue
Nova Law Group
1. Many detainees have been subjected to having worms in their food, and I wouldn't say, as Mr. Mullin stated, that is an 'ethnic choice of food' – I think they just don't want to eat worms.
