https://eu.usatoday.com/story/money/2026/01/05/dhs-blasts-hilton-hotel-canceled-ice-reservation/88037098007/Hilton Hotels is severing ties with a Minneapolis-area hotel that turned away federal immigration enforcement officers. The move came after conservative commentator Nick Sortor posted a video in which he attempted to book rooms posing as a representative of the Department of Homeland Security.
"The independent hotel owner had assured us that they had fixed this problem and published a message confirming this. A recent video clearly raises concerns that they are not meeting our standards and values. As such, we are taking immediate action to remove this hotel from our systems," Hilton said in a statement to USA TODAY. "Hilton is and has always been a welcoming place for all. We are also engaging with all of our franchisees to reinforce the standards we hold them to across our system to help ensure this does not happen again.
The FRONT DESK manager said he had spoken with the owner shortly before I walked in around 10:50 p.m., and confirmed the ANTI-DHS POLICY REMAINED IN EFFECT, Sortor wrote on the social media platform X.
DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said she was glad to see Hilton Hotels take the step. "Discriminatory business practices" targeting the agency's officers "and deliberately undermining federal law enforcement are unAmerican and have real business consequences," she wrote on X.

Would you stay at a hotel filled with men wearing masks, wearing body armor, and carrying guns?

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

I bet most of these guys get off of work, go to their hotel, and get good and drunk.
I once stayed at a hotel where there was a police convention going on, and it was wild. Many were drunk, and several were looking for action. They were hitting on the women, they were loud and unruly, and they were very rude. Who do you call when it is the cops who are drunk and disorderly?
