Mullin told Fox News host Sean Hannity that federal immigration agents have no obligation to assist in the customs process if so-called \u201csanctuary\u201d jurisdiction officials won\u2019t let \u201cthe worst of the worst\u201d criminal illegal aliens be deported.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey\u2019re barricading our employees from coming in and out of the facility, then why are we processing international flights into the airport there?\u201d asked Mullin on \u201cHannity.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are currently drawing up plans to say, \u2018Listen, in these sanctuary cities where the local radical left Democrats aren\u2019t allowing us to do our job and enforce federal laws, then we shouldn\u2019t be processing international flights into their cities either because they don\u2019t want us to enforce immigration,’\u201d added the DHS boss.<\/p>\n

In Newark, anti-ICE protesters have been blockading Delaney Hall detention center \u2014 and clashing with federal agents \u2014 for several days to protest allegedly poor conditions inside the facility.<\/p>\n

Both Mullin and border czar Tom Homan have denied mistreatment of any migrants at the 1,000-bed center.<\/p>\n
