Does anyone really know what is going on in the "concentration" camps..?

[kentuck]

In New Jersey, the Governor was denied entrance to one of the camps. At the same camp, a US Senator was pepper-sprayed when he tried to enter the place. Does anyone know what is going on behind these barbed enclosures?

Is it possible that someday, like at the end of WWII, someone will open the gates and everyone will be horrified at what we see? Is it possible?

This cannot stand. We must demand to know what is happening in our names.

1. And we don't know what's going on in camps we paid foreign governments to setup overseas

This whole thing is done in secrecy. Government police in hoods, camps without access. Has Red Cross been involved? Not that I've heard.

[kentuck]

3. The Congress cannot continue to shrug this off...

...as if it doesn't matter. They are accomplices and should stand before a tribunal for their part.

14. Good point. Time for the Red Cross to step forward and demand entry.

2. Think of a Russian Gulag from ww2

But some of it is much better.


Some of it is much worse.

5. My grandpa was in one

The Russians would throw a steak in a ring and watch the prisoners fight for it. I'm sure there was worse things he didn't tell me.

16. Among other things might be the mass executions...

(I have also known somebody who was in one)

18. That makes sense

Grandma would only say is that not many made it out alive. There was one guard that would occasionally sneak him a little extra food. He was still only 70 pounds when he was freed. In the early fifties they emigrated to this country with the help of a sponsor. They loved this country so much and would've hated seeing this.

4. Conditions are said to be appalling in many of them.

Deaths, injuries, medical problems, suicide.

[MustLoveBeagles]

6. Rape, inedible food......

[Irish_Dem]

8. Murder too.

[MustLoveBeagles]

10. Yes

[kentuck]

7. It couldn't happen here.

How many people still believe that?

[Irish_Dem]

9. It't happening here, and we are funding the concentration camps.

[malaise]

11. K & R

Important

[PuraVidaDreamin]

12. The should be a gathering of all D Senators at the entrance and demand entry!

I don't know why they haven't done that by now!

[GoodRaisin]

13. ALL Senators

That’s the problem.

15. Statement by Governor Sherrill on Visit to Delaney Hall

Posted on 05/25/2026

NEWARK - Governor Mikie Sherrill released the following statement after visiting Delaney Hall. She is the first sitting Governor to visit the facility.

"My request for access to Delaney Hall was formally denied this morning, raising serious questions about what they are trying to hide from public view.

"I have long opposed private detention facilities and will continue to advocate for the closure of Delaney Hall and against any expansion of mass detention facilities in New Jersey, like the proposed facility in Roxbury.

"I came today to hear from families and advocates, and what I heard from them was heartbreaking.

"I will continue to hold ICE accountable, and I remain grateful for the work of our federal delegation, including Senator Kim and Representatives Menendez, Pou, McIver, and Mejia, who joined me today. They have been tireless in using their federal oversight authority to bring accountability to the facility. I will continue working closely with them to demand answers, protect constitutional rights, and ensure humane conditions.

"The people inside Delaney Hall are fathers and mothers, sons and daughters, and members of our community. In New Jersey, we believe in the rule of law and that everyone deserves to be treated with basic dignity. We have a duty to safeguard the rights, health, and well-being of everyone within our borders."
