DHS publicly accusing Hilton of a coordinated campaign in Minneapolis to refuse service to its law enforcement officers, alleging that when attempts were made to book rooms using official government emails and rates, the hotel chain "maliciously cancelled their reservations."

@newsguyusa shame they're not sleeping where they expected to. A bit like the people whose lives they're upending. Such snowflakes.
Hilton responds that the action taken by the independent property in Minneapolis doesn’t reflect the hotel chain’s values and it’s investigating. “Hilton works with governments, law enforcement and community leaders around the world to ensure our properties are open and inviting to everyone.”
@newsguyusa Time to boycott all Hilton properties.
Funny. I just got a "woke alert" from the Heritage Foundation on this very topic.
@newsguyusa precisely. And ICE are not “open and inviting to everyone”. An excellent reason for keeping them out.
And it is solidarity with any immigrants within the workforce who would feel vulnerable to detention and deportation whether justified or not.
ICE is a cancer on society. Nobody wants a cancer.
@newsguyusa Hilton lies through its fucking teeth
Statement from the owner/operator of the Hampton Inn in Hampton Inn in Lakeville, Minnesota, which rejected ICE agents’ room bookings: https://www.everpeakhotels.com/

Those ICE guys better not sleep in the bed after they take sll the housekeepers away.
Miggt get fleas or ticks ....or worse.
@newsguyusa Open and inviting to ICE agents is the opposite of inviting to everyone. It turns the place into a Nazi bar where other people are liable to be harassed or worse. Also makes the hotel a likely target of protests, meaning the stays of uninvolved guests are disturbed.
@newsguyusa
They are either open and inviting to ICE and other federal ghouls, or open and inviting to everyone else. Pick one. Maybe not the one that only pays you the government rates that are laughably behind inflation.
"NO ROOM AT THE INN"
Yes, seriously, DHS is equating themselves with the baby Jesus Christ.
And they're using our tax dollars to sleep in upscale Hiltons. What's wrong with a Motel 6?
For that matter, Jesus was able to get by sleeping in a manger. There are plenty of sheds in Minneapolis. Try sleeping there, DHS.
Ha! More of this please!
DHS didn’t read the terms of service…“We reserve the right to refuse service to anyone.”
Glad Hilton is doing this, every hotel should do the same…they can sleep in those unmarked SUVs
@newsguyusa
Wait, what?
*Who* is malicious?
