EXCERPT:
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has blasted Boston’s far-left Democrat Mayor Michelle Wu as “unhinged” after her administration sought information identifying private businesses and property owners that could provide parking to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
The confrontation erupted after Boston barred ICE from using city-owned parking lots to stage immigration enforcement operations.
ICE responded by looking to the private sector, issuing a notice seeking 249 contiguous parking spaces in Boston as part of a wider search for “surge parking” across 14 U.S. cities.
Wu then urged private garage and parking lot owners to reject ICE while revealing that Boston had submitted a Freedom of Information Act request seeking “any local responses to ICE.”
DHS accused the mayor of attempting to intimidate private property owners because she lacks the authority to stop them from voluntarily doing business with federal law enforcement.
“These actions by sanctuary Mayor Michelle Wu are unhinged,” DHS said.
