福克斯独家消息:国土安全部对葡萄酒连锁巨头、亿万富翁大卫·特罗恩一段被网友戏称为”雪景”的视频泼了冷水。特罗恩正试图从同为民主党人的国会众议员阿普丽尔·麦克莱恩-德莱尼手中重新夺回马里兰州的国会选区。视频中,特罗恩站在华盛顿县的一座仓库外,嘲笑移民与海关执法局(ICE)的行动。
曾在2024年竞选马里兰州参议员席位失败的民主党前众议员大卫·特罗恩,在威廉斯波特一处积雪覆盖的场地外猛烈抨击移民与海关执法局的移民执法行动。
“今天我们就在海格尔斯敦市外,看看这个即将成为移民与海关执法局未来设施的地方。我们知道,无论在美国哪里,我们都不需要另一个移民与海关执法局的监狱,”特罗恩站在现场说道。
特罗恩称,”从第一天起”,移民与海关执法局就一直在抓人,”实际上是在街上处决人”,”不仅仅是在明尼阿波利斯,而是在整个美国”。
民主党高层因要求国会禁止移民与海关执法局进入投票点遭抨击:”等等,为什么…?”
葡萄酒超市连锁Total Wine & More的联合创始人特罗恩于1991年与兄弟共同创立该公司,如果重返国会,他将成为国会中最富有的人。
针对特罗恩的视频,国土安全部一名官员向福克斯新闻数字版独家透露,国土安全部确实在海格尔斯敦附近购买了土地和设施,但这些设施不会简单地作为拘留所使用。
“这些将是符合常规拘留标准的、结构非常完善的拘留设施,”该官员表示。
“每天,国土安全部都在全国范围内开展执法活动,以保障美国人的安全。移民与海关执法局将在美国各州进行逮捕,并积极扩大拘留空间,这不足为奇。”
该官员补充说,移民与海关执法局正针对最”凶残”的非法移民,而特罗恩所在的马里兰州也曾是基尔马尔·阿布雷戈-加西亚事件的风暴中心。
民主党人因试图”驱逐”移民与海关执法局出摇摆县遭抨击,涉及”血汗钱”租金争议
“多亏了《一揽子大法案》,移民与海关执法局获得了新的资金来扩大拘留空间,以便在这些罪犯被永久驱逐出我们社区之前将他们从美国街头清除,”该官员在提及此次最新收购时表示。
据报道,该场地售价为1.02亿美元。
国土安全部还在宾夕法尼亚州沙特尔斯维尔购买了另一处大型地产,该地产与前”美国路边景点”(Roadside America)旅游胜地隔78号州际公路相望,原因据报道也与此类似。
民主党参议员华纳承认拜登”搞砸”边境问题,但声称移民与海关执法局现在针对非罪犯
虽然特罗恩声称海格尔斯敦不需要移民与海关执法局的干预,但国土安全部却不这么认为。
该官员指出,该市最近抓获了两名暴力非法移民,海格尔斯敦位于梅森-迪克森线和波托马克河之间。
非法移民何塞·安东尼奥·罗达斯-奥特斯最近在华盛顿县被捕,其犯罪记录包括性犯罪。
明尼苏达州权力更迭:白宫称领导权变化而非战略调整,驳斥”撤退”指控
另一名非法移民穆罕默德·巴赫(Mohamed Bah)被捕,其犯罪记录包括持枪严重袭击、可卡因相关指控、袭击以及非法持有武器,而艾伦·加西亚-平托(Allan Garcia-Pinto)则因之前的贩毒定罪被移民与海关执法局拘留。
特罗恩今年的竞选形势复杂,他在民主党初选中面临麦克莱恩-德莱尼的挑战,而共和党人因重新划分选区在该地区略占优势。
几十年来,该席位覆盖了”马里兰州山区”、狭长地带以及华盛顿北部相对保守的卡罗尔县。
迈克·戴维斯:为何对明尼苏达州的移民与海关执法局任务而言,投降不是选项
2010年,共和党前议员罗斯科·巴特利特(Roscoe Bartlett)因卡罗尔县被划出而输掉了竞选,该选区调整后纳入了自由派的蒙哥马利县的一部分,巴特利特的优势从28个百分点骤降至20个百分点。
2014年的竞选是共和党人最接近夺回该席位的一次,前联邦调查局副局长丹·邦吉诺(Dan Bongino)以微弱劣势输给了麦克莱恩-德莱尼的丈夫约翰。
自2022年最新选区划分以来,部分远离华盛顿的区域被重新划回,但该选区仍被视为民主党占优。
极左华盛顿郊区警告居民:如见移民与海关执法局请打911
共和党人、前州议员尼尔·帕罗特(Neil Parrott)成立了一个探索性委员会,正在考虑第四次竞选该席位。来自盖瑟斯堡的海军陆战队退伍军人、小企业主克里斯·伯内特(Chris Burnett)已正式宣布参选。
帕罗特告诉福克斯新闻数字版,特罗恩的言论”非常令人失望”,因为他代表的是一个地理上较为保守的选区。
“这不是团结我们国家或代表第6选区的方式。你知道,加勒特县和阿勒格尼县非常保守,弗雷德里克县比较温和,而蒙哥马利县则较为自由,”帕罗特补充道。
他指出,去年波托马克河支流摧毁了西波托马克和卢克地区后,马里兰州未能获得联邦紧急事务管理局的资金,”这并不奇怪”,因为该地区的民主党人”过度攻击总统,根本没有与共和党合作的意愿”。
特罗恩在12月接受《政治报》采访时表示,反对唐纳德·特朗普总统将是他竞选的关键,称特朗普及其政党正在”攻击民主制度”并将政府武器化。
“我们的基本自由正在被一点点蚕食,”他说。

麦克莱恩-德莱尼将特罗恩比作特朗普的”傲慢”,称特罗恩似乎认为她”应该让位,让他重新夺回旧席位”。
福克斯新闻数字版已联系特罗恩、麦克莱恩-德莱尼和伯内特的竞选团队寻求置评。

DHS fires back after Dem billionaire David Trone claims ICE is ‘executing people’
Former State Del Neil Parrott, a Republican considering running against David Trone, said the Democrat’s comments are no way to represent a moderate district

FIRST ON FOX: DHS threw cold water on a snowy video of Total Wine billionaire David Trone — who is seeking to recapture his Maryland congressional district from fellow Democrat Rep. April McClain-Delaney — standing outside a warehouse in Washington County while ridiculing ICE’s operations.
Former Rep. David Trone, D-Md., who gave up the seat last term to mount an ultimately unsuccessful bid against now-Sen. Angela Alsobrooks, D-Md., for that open Senate seat, stood outside a Hagerstown-area warehouse and lambasted ICE’s immigration enforcement operations.
“Today we’re just outside the city limit of Hagerstown, stopping by what’s going be a future ICE facility. We know one thing, we don’t need another ICE prison here or anywhere else in America,” Trone said, standing beside the snowy site in Williamsport.
Trone said that “since day one,” ICE has been taking prisoners, “literally executing people on the streets” in “not just Minneapolis… all over the United States.”

“ICE has to go and we sure don’t want them in Washington County.”
The East Berlin, Pennsylvania-born billionaire founded the liquor superstore chain Total Wine & More with his brother in 1991 and would be the wealthiest member of Congress if he returned to Washington.
In response to Trone’s video, a DHS official told Fox News Digital exclusively that DHS had indeed purchased land and a facility near Hagerstown, but that they will not be simply warehousing anyone.
“[These] will be very well-structured [detention facilities] meeting our regular detention standards,” the DHS official said.
“Every day, DHS is conducting law enforcement activities across the country to keep Americans safe. It should not come as news that ICE will be making arrests in states across the U.S. and is actively working to expand detention space.”
The official added that ICE is targeting the most “vicious” of illegal immigrants, as Trone’s Maryland was also ground zero for the Kilmar Abrego-Garcia saga.

“Thanks to the One Big Beautiful Bill, ICE has new funding to expand detention space to keep these criminals off American streets before they are removed for good from our communities,” the official said, in apparent reference to the newest purchase.
It reportedly sold for $102 million.
DHS also purchased another massive property in Shartlesville, Pennsylvania, across Interstate 78 from the former Roadside America tourist attraction for reportedly similar reasons.

While Trone said that Hagerstown does not need ICE’s intervention, the agency disagreed.
The official pointed to two recent captures of violent illegal immigrants in the city, which is sandwiched between the Mason-Dixon Line and Potomac River.
Jose Antonio Rodas-Ortes, a criminal illegal immigrant, was recently detained in the Washington County seat, with a rap sheet including sex offenses.

Another illegal immigrant, Mohamed Bah, was captured with a record including aggravated assault with a gun, cocaine-related charges, assault, and illegally possessing a weapon – while Allan Garcia-Pinto was picked up by ICE with a prior drug trafficking conviction.
Trone’s election this year is a complex contest, as he faces McClain-Delaney in the primary while Republicans have a slightly stronger hand amid redistricting.
For decades, the seat ran throughout the “Mountain Maryland” and the panhandle and into relatively rural Carroll County north of Washington.

Then-Rep. Roscoe Bartlett, R-Md., lost his 2010 contest after Carroll was removed, and the district was adjusted to include a slice of dense, liberal Montgomery County – going from a 28-point Bartlett win to a 20-point Bartlett loss in one cycle.
The 2014 race was the closest Republicans have come to taking back the seat, when former FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino lost to McClain-Delaney’s husband John by one point.
Since 2022’s latest map, some of the district’s less-Washingtonian confines have been returned, but it still is rated as Democrat-favored.

Former state Del. Neil Parrott, R-Hagerstown, formed an exploratory committee and is considering a fourth attempt to win the seat. Marine veteran and small business owner Chris Burnett of Gaithersburg is currently declared.
Parrott told Fox News Digital that Trone’s rhetoric is “very disappointing” as he runs to represent what is geographically a moderate district.
“This is not the way to bring our country together or represent District 6. You have very conservative Garrett and Allegany counties, moderate Frederick and liberal Montgomery.”
Citing Maryland’s failure to secure FEMA funds after Potomac tributaries ravaged Westernport and Luke last year, Parrott said it is “no surprise” given how Democrats in the district go “over the top attacking the president and [showing] no intention to work with Republicans at all.”
In December, Trone told Politico that opposition to President Donald Trump will be key to his campaign, saying that the president and his party are committing an “assault on democracy” and weaponizing government.
“Our fundamental freedoms are being dismantled piece by piece,” he said.

McClain-Delaney compared Trone to Trump in terms of “arrogance,” telling the outlet that Trone appears to think she “should step aside so he can have his old seat.”
Fox News Digital reached out to the campaigns of Trone, McClain-Delaney and Burnett for comment.
