When community members gathered at Delaney Hall in Newark to expose the inhumane conditions inside, they were met with aggression from the State Police. Turning a blind eye to human suffering and responding with force against demonstrators is a failure of leadership. @hcrichardson.bsky.social

I STAND WITH THE PROTESTERS If a detention facility can’t withstand public scrutiny, congressional oversight, and media attention, the problem isn’t the protesters. The problem is what’s happening inside. #ShutDownDelaneyHall

“It’s just burning. I just wanted to try to keep people safe.” ICE fired pepper spray at Senator Andy Kim and protesters outside a detention facility in New Jersey. Not another penny should go to these out-of-control agencies — and when we regain power, we will hold all of these thugs accountable.

I renovated the Lincoln Bathroom in the White House. It was renovated in the 1940s in an art deco green tile style, which was totally inappropriate for the Lincoln Era. I did it in black and white polished Statuary marble. This was very appropriate for the time of Abraham Lincoln and, in fact, could be the marble that was originally there!
