2026-05-26 (Tuesday) — federal officials dismissive

  • On Fox News, border czar Tom Homan says hunger strikes "never work" and that the government would seek a court order to force-feed strikers in extreme medical danger — a practice the UN and World Medical Association classify as torture.
  • DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin threatens to cut international flights and customs processing at Newark Airport over the city's sanctuary policy.
  • Gov. Sherrill and members of Congress seek to inspect; Sherrill reported denied entry by federal officials. DHS continues to deny a strike is occurring.
