You have heard about quartering enemy troops?
No matter how you want to put it, these inn keepers might liken them housing them to it.
"Discrimination is the unfair, prejudicial treatment of people based on characteristics like race, gender, age, religion, or disability, denying them equal rights or opportunities, often stemming from learned biases, fear, or misunderstanding. It manifests in exclusion, harassment, or restrictions, causing significant stress and harm, and can be illegal when based on protected characteristics, with major laws in the US and UK covering employment and other areas.

Amy had this story first, but a Hilton hotel in Minneapolis was intentionally canceling reservations made by members of the Department of Homeland Security. ICE agents are on the ground in the city, along with other federal agents, as they both engage in the deportation agenda set forth by the Trump administration, but also investigate the rampant fraud that appears to be systemic throughout the city via daycare centers.
We have been in direct contact with the hotel, and they have apologized for the actions of their team, which was not in keeping with their policies. They have taken immediate action to resolve this matter and are contacting impacted guests to ensure they are accommodated. Hilton’s position is clear: Our properties are open to everyone and we do not tolerate any form of discrimination."
Earlier today, Curtis noted that the Hampton Inn by Hilton at Lakeview was still engaging in its anti-ICE shenanigans. It was all captured by Nick Sortor:
Sotor asks the front desk clerk if the hotel has rooms available.
The clerk asks Sotor, "What agency is that for?"
"They'd be Department of Homeland Security," Sotor replies.
"We're not accepting people from immigration, ICE agents, DHS, onto our property," the clerk says. "It's just per management, our ownership."
"Okay. I thought that changed today," Sotor says.
"I just talked to my...the owner of the building and he didn't say there has been any changes...that's just policy," the clerk says.
"So even with the thing they said earlier, where they mentioned that the statement that they put out...that they accept everybody,"
Sotor says.
"I haven't been informed," the clerk says, and he offers to call his manager.
The clerk goes into the back room.
"Nobody's answering my calls right now, due to the time," the clerk says when he returns.
Well, Hilton Hotels promised to remove this location from their orbit, and they did. Was it fast enough? You can argue among yourselves, but they’ve been erased:
BREAKING — IT’S OFFICIAL: The Hampton Inn by Hilton Lakeview can NO LONGER be booked through any travel website, and has been NUKED from Hilton’s site FAFO, clowns. MASSIVE financial losses incoming! Hope your anti-ICE virtue signaling was worth it!
If I owned a hotel and you came to my hotel asking for a room, would you like it if I refuse to give you a room because I saw your profile on a website like ECCIE and say to you: "No, I don't book rooms out to Sex Workers!!"?
Same thing with ICE agents, you cannot refuse to book them a room because of their occupation.
Yes I admit there are NO LAWS prohibiting a hotel from refusing a room to a potential lodger based on their occupation.
BUT That is discrimination and it's also poor business practice especially in today's digital age and social media age where everything you do, right or wrong, can be posted and shared on the internet within seconds after it happened, for most of the world's population to see:
6.04 billion people out of the total world's population of 8.3 billion have access to the internet.
Ever since his first presidency, Trump has been a big booster for the franchise model.
The brands at the top maintain that due to the franchise arrangement, they aren’t responsible for working conditions — including when workers are victims of wage theft — and shouldn’t have to bargain with a union. Trump’s labor appointees over the years have generally subscribed to this thinking and worked to undo progressive reforms aimed at holding the big brands accountable.
But pillorying Hilton over a local franchisee’s reservation discretion would seem to undermine the notion that franchisees are really independent operators setting their own policies.
