Hilton Franchise Owner Lied About DHS Policy

But then they weren't going to admit that they hate law and order. CEO saves Hilton - Don Surber

ICE and DHS are headed to (or already in) Minnesota. The Hilton in one of the impacted areas canceled all of their reservations, because reasons.

The franchise owner said, “We are in touch with the impacted guests to ensure they are accommodated. We do not discriminate against any individuals or agencies and apologize to those impacted. We are committed to welcoming all guests and operating in accordance with brand standards, applicable laws, and our role as a professional hospitality provider.”

But a few hours later, rebel journalist Nick Sortor went to the hotel in question and found the franchisee lied.

Nassetta [CEO of Hilton] wasn’t pleased. Politicians lie all the time. In business, you get to lie only once. The CEO fired the franchisee. The company’s stock popped back up.

Go read the whole thing. The first section about how conservatives don't go to protests, they just vote with their wallets is very good.

I know this is a day or two behind the news... so am I. (See this post) There were photos on social media of the Hilton sign being removed from in front of the hotel in question.
