Scores of violent, criminal left-wing protesters assaulted law enforcement officers at Delaney Hall in Newark, New Jersey, earlier this week. However, Gov. Mikie Sherrill (D-NJ) used the incident to demonize law enforcement officers instead.
After hours of violent attacks on Delaney Hall, organized and instigated by masked left-wing agitators, Sherrill did what Democrats do in these situations: blame law enforcement. Instead of criticizing, denouncing, or demanding accountability of the violent perpetrators, she used her platform to vilify and demonize Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers, as so many other Democrats have done over the last two years.

Consider Sherrill’s despicable words in an X post from Sunday morning.
“Last night, masked individuals at Delaney Hall attacked the barrier in the protected protest area and began aggressive and dangerous actions against Newark and New Jersey State Police, including throwing projectiles, utilizing the barriers as weapons, and lighting tires on fire in the street,” Sherrill posted. “These actions put both peaceful protestors and law enforcement in danger. The police were not in protective gear; they had been on location since early in the morning ensuring protestors and counter protestors had areas to exercise their rights safely. As these dangerous actions took place, additional support was needed to protect civilians and law enforcement.”
Note to Mikie Sherrill: the federal law enforcers arresting criminal illegal immigrants are the good guys. The criminals she described as engaging in dangerously violent antics, endangering innocent people, are the bad guys.
Naturally, one would think Sherrill would rightfully identify the criminals who engaged in these activities as the wrongdoers, right? And admit they were the enemy and should be held accountable for their crimes? It is what any sane, objective, decent, honorable, truthful, and logical person would do.
But not Sherrill. Instead, after listing all the dangerous crimes committed by the left-wing foot soldiers stationed outside Delaney Hall in Newark, for some reason, she vilified and demonized ICE officers.
“My number one priority will always be public safety, and I remain dedicated to protecting constitutional rights,” Sherrill said. “We simply cannot let ICE surge into our community.”
Huh?
It was a comment that should make everyone’s blood boil. After listing a sequence of events in which agitators endangered innocent people, she mentions another group (ICE officers) that had nothing to do with the incidents.
Furthermore, Sherrill’s words should raise numerous red flags. With her comment, she showed her commitment to prioritizing the work of the Left’s pro-illegal immigration foot soldiers, no matter the dangers, havoc, and destruction they cause. She gave them free rein to do whatever they want, to endanger whomever they please, and to destroy whatever they desire, so long as it is in the name of anti-ICE endeavors.
Sherrill’s remarks, as horrific as they were, should come as no surprise to any objective person today. They reflect the rabid embracement by liberals, Democrats, and others on the Left of the term I coined, “radical illegal immigration ideology.” As she continued with her statement, Sherrill reinforced her commitment to ensuring chaos, not protecting the welfare of people in New Jersey or the law enforcement officers who protect Sherrill, her family, and millions of other New Jersey residents.
DEMOCRATS CONTINUE TO SIT FOR AMERICANS AND STAND FOR VIOLENT ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS AT DELANEY HALL
“I do not know why these individuals attacked or what they wanted to accomplish, but I refuse to let these dangerous actions detract from New Jersey’s dedication to ensuring public safety, keeping people safe from ICE, and that the people detained inside Delaney Hall are treated with dignity,” Sherrill said, expressing falsehoods about the motives of the rioters while once again demonizing ICE.
People like Mikie Sherrill are fanatics. It is time to stop sugarcoating this or mincing words. Like the rest of her left-wing brethren, Sherrill demonstrated that liberals, Democrats, and others on the Left will excuse anything, even dangerous, violent crime, when it comes to protecting their desire to prioritize radical illegal immigration ideology. Any innocent people injured, hurt, or even killed in these processes are acceptable collateral damage to people like Sherrill.
