Newark Mayor Ras Baraka was arrested for criminally trespassing at the Delaney Hall ICE detention center in New Jersey.
According to Acting U.S. Attorney Alina Habba, Baraka ignored multiple warnings from Homeland Security Investigations to leave the property. Baraka joined other Democrats, including Rep. LaMonica McIver and Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman, to “conduct federal oversight” at the facility, resulting in his arrest.
- Baraka was taken to an ICE field office in Newark.
- Witnesses stated he attempted to join a scheduled tour of the facility.
This incident highlights ongoing tensions surrounding ICE detention policies.

Lucem News Editor’s Opinion: When a mayor treats ICE like it’s the enemy and gets arrested for trespassing, that’s not civil disobedience—that’s just a stunt to impress liberal Twitter. Maybe next time Ras Baraka should try respecting federal law before playing Superman at a detention center.
