Personally, I blame Obamacare, Benghazi, Whitewater and Vince Foster. In that order.
ICE Agent Arrested After Sending Reporter Lewd, Sensitive Text Messages
Lewd, but sensitive.
That’s a hard needle to thread, I imagine.
Deport the bastard to hell.
Let us not pass over the part where his bond was revoked because apparently he had become a danger to female residents at the residential inpatient substance abuse program, and he wanted to buy a gun. Seems like a lot of instability going on there.
ICE emailed a statement saying all Department of Homeland Security
employees are held “to the highest standards of behavior and ethics,”
but declined to comment on his employment.
…
Why is this agent still employed by ICE?
And if the above statement is true why are agents arresting and jailing people who are in the process of leaving voluntarily? Why does ICE arrest and jail people with “foreign sounding names” for offenses committed, adjudicated and whatever sentence served 20 years ago? Specifically those from the Middle East? If you are someone who has a green card and you get so much as a parking ticket 30 years ago but since have been a model citizen you can be jailed and deported as a criminal.

Why are most ICE agents I see pictures of bald? What have they got against hair?
ICE appears to be, from top to bottom and to its core, a rogue agency that operates out of a sense of righteous* belief rather than in accordance with its legislative mandate. It fulfills an important role (and a bunch of unimportant or outright harmful roles), but it’s not obvious to me how it is recoverable in its current state.
It’s a “meme” they all want to project.
It is the exact same “meme” as the Militia-Type gun nuts; Over 35, overweight, Bald, goatee, sunglasses, body-armor, and festooned with guns.
i.e.: “Tough-guy”
We’re not sending our best.
Thank GOD! Finally, someone who knows the score!
PS: Don’t forget the Obamaphone scandal!
You forgot the tan suit scandal!!!
I’m assuming, and will be very upset if I’m wrong, that the Enforcement and Removal branch of ICE will to be scrapped as a matter of urgency when we get back in charge. No need to campaign on it. Just do it. Right away. Fire everyone, set up new structures with very clear limits on their powers and very clear new ethos, and start from scratch. Civilized western countries simply do not have jackbooted thugs roaming the land, rounding up women and children.
ICE is doing an excellent job playing the Gestapo in this reboot of the Third Reich.
