Kristi Noem's DHS throws tantrum as Hilton Hotels cancels ICE agents' rooms

Department of Homeland Security (DHS) officials cried foul after Hilton Hotels refused service to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents.

The department expressed outrage in a Monday post on X.

"NO ROOM AT THE INN!" the post exclaimed. "@HiltonHotels has launched a coordinated campaign in Minneapolis to REFUSE service to DHS law enforcement.".....

Hotels generally have the right to refuse service to customers. Emails from DHS confirmed Hilton management's decision.

"After further investigation online, we have found information about immigration work connected with your name and we will be cancelling your upcoming reservation. You should see a proper cancellation email in your inbox shortly from Hilton," one email said.

"[W]e are not allowing any ICE or immigration agents to stay at our property," another email said. "If you are with DHS or immigration, let us know as we will have to cancel your reservation."

"Please pass on this info to your coworkers that we are not allowing any immigration agents to house on our property," the email added.

Freak looking person. BTW she has had so much stuff done to her that if she ever stops with her yearly
facial tune ups things will go really wrong.

My guess is reduced income is really driving this, stemming from the nightly protests against ICE/DHS/CBP.

Nobody else will want to stay there if they can’t get to sleep because citizens are insisting on their first amendment rights.

Regular hotel.


MAGA hotel.




Stolen from a Ziggy cartoon I can't find despite a lot of searching.

P.S. Most transcripts of Noem videos return Gnome, which I kind of enjoy.

Unless the agents are paying out of pocket hilton shouldn't be an option. If they're using tax payer dollars an econo lodge or quality inn or any other low priced hotel should be whats booked

What a nightmare is left for the cleaning staff every time those disgusting monsters leave. I wouldn't let them stay in a motel that I managed no matter how fancy or modest, they would not be welcome.

Good on Hilton.

You asked
“ Why is Hilton Hotels siding with murderers and rapists to deliberately undermine and impede DHS law enforcement from their mission to enforce our nation's immigration laws?"

The answer is: the vast majority of Americans are disgusted by your actions, and the actions of the lawless hundreds of criminal kidnappers and rapists you are putting in your ranks .

They aren’t law enforcement- they are gang members.

And we don’t want your criminal gangs in our nice hotels. Go fuvk yourself.

Noem has some serious gall. She is the one, along with her married lover, that is freeloading on the taxpayer's dime by crashing in the house of the Commandant of the Coast Guard.

Hilton Hotels doubles-down on their support for the American Gestapo.

When looking for a hotel, there are *plenty* of other choices.
