Hilton Hotels used a late afternoon X post on Monday to announce the hotel accused of denying rooms to DHS officers is independently owned and has “apologized for the actions of their team.” Hilton Newsroom posted: In a follow-up post they added, “[The hotel has] taken immediate action to resolve this matter. Hilton’s position is clear: Our properties are open to everyone and we do not tolerate any form of discrimination.” On Monday morning, Breitbart News reported DHS’s allegations that Hilton Hotels were denying rooms to Department of Homeland Security officers in the Minneapolis area. Hilton Hotels responded to the DHS by saying the hotel in question was independently owned. https://www.breitbart.com/2nd-...ions-has-apologized/ _________________________ | |||

I hope the owner is a Somali who wasn't involved in the fraud because he FAFO'd his own hotel. The good news is there is new homeless housing available in Minnesota. Nice is overrated "It's every freedom-loving individual's duty to lie to the government." Airsoftguy, June 29, 2018 | |||

Well done, Hilton. Politicians seem to have forgotten that they work for us, not the other way around. — — — — — — — — — — — — God bless America. | |||

Yup. But this latest incident really makes me wonder about the people who run businesses of any sort. There have been numerous examples in recent years of someone in a company deciding to focus more on the social issue du jour than what’s best for them economically. Those examples have usually made it obvious that they should have worried about running the business rather than bending to whatever wind of “social justice” was blowing at the moment. It only demonstrates once again that stupidity knows no bounds. ► 6.0/94.0 “I can’t give you brains, but I can give you a diploma.” — The Wizard of Oz | |||

Affirmative, also reports on X that the franchise continues to ban DHS agents reservations. https://x.com/seanmdav/status/2008263492030349618 | |||

Damage control at its best. The blowback Hilton received in the last 24 hours had them reeling.

https://www.newsmax.com/politi...dkt_nbr=010502p82epf Trump Lauds First Year, Predicts 'Epic Midterm Victory' President Donald Trump told Republicans at the GOP House retreat Tuesday at the Trump-Kennedy Center that the party is positioned to defy the usual midterm backlash against the sitting president's party and deliver what he called an "epic" victory in 2026. "So together, we had 12 months of unprecedented success in 2025. And now we're going to make history and break records with the epic midterm victory that we're going to pull off," Trump said in the address, shown on Newsmax. He said the past year has seen an “amazing” presidency. Trump said it is "an amazing phenomenon" that presidents often see their parties lose seats in midterm elections — even when the administration is doing well — and said he expects Republicans to beat that trend. "It just doesn't seem to happen for people that win the presidency," Trump said. "We sure as hell are having a successful presidency." "But even if it's a successful presidency, there's been nothing like what we're doing," he added. Trump also insisted that Republicans must keep control of the House, as he'd be impeached if Democrats win the majority in the upcoming midterms. "They'll find a reason to impeach me," he said. "I'll get impeached. "We don't impeach them. You know why? Because they're meaner than we are. " He added, "We should have impeached Joe Biden for 100 different things." "They are mean and smart," he added about Democrats. "But fortunately for you, they have horrible policy." Trump also pointed to his 2024 win as evidence Republicans have momentum, saying he carried every swing state and won the popular vote "by millions." "We won every swing state; we won the popular vote by millions; we won everything," Trump said. "But they say that when you win the presidency, you lose the midterm." Trump also spoke out about political loyalty and lawmakers who he said never support his agenda, suggesting some opponents are unmoved regardless of the policy, adding that even bills he described as broadly beneficial can draw automatic opposition. Trump praised the U.S. operation in Venezuela this weekend in the capture and arrest of former Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, calling it "an amazing military feat" and "brilliant tactically." He said the mission involved "152 airplanes" and "a lot of boots on the ground" and claimed no Americans were killed. "On the other side, a lot of people were killed," he said. "Unfortunately, I say that soldiers, Cubans, mostly Cubans, but many, many killed." Trump said the operation achieved surprise in part by shutting off electricity across much of the country. Trump also took aim at Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., saying Democrats should recognize military success even when they oppose his agenda. | |||

Well, that link cost me a quick $20... Didn't know Kurt had a new (at least to me) Kelly Turnbull novel out, and clicking on that led me to the new (again, to me at least) book in the William Forstchen series of after an EMP books. Be careful when following the masses. Sometimes the M is silent. | |||

Curious if Hilton would have legal recourse again their former franchisee for damaging the brand? Would be a shame if the owners got sued into bankruptcy as well… What part of "...Shall not be infringed" don't you understand??? | |||

Was that the Kindle price? I only buy Kindle books nowadays. I have hundreds on my Kindle. Very convenient, and takes no floor space for bookshelves. Serious about crackers. | |||
