This short segment centers on the Delaney Hall ICE detention facility in Newark and the political/legal confrontation surrounding it. MS NOW senior reporter Josh Einiger reports live from outside the site, describing a heavy industrial area, barricades keeping people about a half-mile away, and traffic disruption tied to the protests. He says several dozen people were led away in handcuffs after tensions rose overnight, as Newark police and New Jersey state police expanded the perimeter to enforce the mayor’s 9 p.m. curfew. Einiger frames the episode as part of a wider pattern of disruption around ICE facilities. He notes that local authorities are trying to regain control and prevent protesters from entering the facility themselves. …
