President Donald Trump's Department of Homeland Security (DHS) accused Hilton Hotels of refusing rooms to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents, describing it as a "coordinated campaign" against DHS law enforcement in Minneapolis.

In a post on X Monday, DHS shared screenshots it said were from Hilton Hotels, in which staff refused to book rooms for federal agents linked with immigration enforcement efforts in the area.

"When officers attempted to book rooms using official government emails and rates, Hilton Hotels maliciously CANCELLED their reservations. This is UNACCEPTABLE. Why is Hilton Hotels siding with murderers and rapists to deliberately undermine and impede DHS law enforcement from their mission to enforce our nation’s immigration laws?" DHS wrote on its official X account.

Hilton responded to the post, telling Newsweek it was investigating the emails.

No Room at the Inn (for ICE!) in Minneapolis with The Hilton!

Keep in mind they did this also back in 2020 citing their belief that hotels should be places of hospitality, not detention.
