🚨NEW: Court records show undercover Newark police detectives infiltrated protests outside Delaney Hall ICE prison early this month, according to @theintercept.
Advocates say the use of plainclothes officers at First Amendment-protected demonstrations raises concerns about surveillance and a chilling effect on free speech.
Officials are now reportedly trying to offload seven of the 11 warehouses they wasted money on after facing legal and ethical pushback from communities across the United States.
More details are available here:

🚨 REPORT: The federal government is reportedly abandoning its plan to turn seven warehouses into massive ICE detention centers, per @NYTimes.
The kicker? ICE reportedly spent $700M of the $1B Trump allocated for this wasted warehouse shopping spree.
For reference, that $700M could've funded 47 White House reflecting pool projects, which Trump is projected to spend $14.7M worth of taxpayer dollars on.
In Roxbury, NJ, alone, ICE spent $129.3M to convert a warehouse into a facility for 1,500 detainees.
