Do a job you love and you'll never work a day in your life
Man out here living his best racist life and y'all gotta drag him down
/s because it's the internet
Whiskey tango Foxtrot! The shitbags at DOGE will not lift a finger to fire the asswipe.
They'll promote him.
Bigballs has a new desk mate!
I'm shocked, shocked I tell you.
Also, we all know this will earn him a spot in the Trump admin. He probably leaked it himself.
Virtue signaling is getting out of hand. (Along with the fascism).
He's just trying to get Luigi's attention. 🙃
This should probably get him a position in trump’s administration.
Head of the SS
it's always the people you most suspect
Lets go check his dry cleaning. I bet it's all white hoods and robes.
Some of those that work forces…
Crazy how 32 years later, it applies more than ever.
It has ever been thus.
Beat me to it.
All of those that work ICE.
Professionally argues in favor of treating immigrants like vermin
Personally believes in treating immigrants like vermin

We need to dox these motherfuckers!
To what end? Is he even hiding? He's proud of this. You're playing by yesterday's rules.
He is afraid of being publicly identified, that's why he stayed behind the "Mr. X" persona with a stock profile picture
Addresses will still play a part in today's rules.
Oh, yeah…you’re right.
At this point that would just be helping musk recruit.
As if he doesn’t already know.
True
They where going to fall in line one way or another
The article does a pretty good job. They got CVS length receipts for this.
Ok, so serious question. What would it take for you to work for ICE? For your job to be rounding up people that are usually not harming anyone, that may be hardworking, industrious, and smart members of their community, that may have families, that may have been here most of their lives. To take those people, jail them, push them through a vicious court system without representation or language assistance in many cases, and ultimately kick them out of the country without a home, job, sometimes without their family and sometimes into the waiting arms of cartels. Often those people are actually children. What would it take for you to choose to work in that role.
I can get where someone may think it's important to uphold laws and thus want to enter law enforcement. But then you could work for your local police, sheriff's department, state police, FBI, ATF, etc. instead of ICE. So, why ICE specifically?
Plenty of people just fall into work, so I'm not going to suggest that literally every single ICE officer was actively motivated to seek out work with ICE specifically. I'm sure plenty are just content and uncaring without active malice towards their targets. But for those who were motivated to seek out work with ICE, I really can't help but to think that that motivation had to include some amount of racism and xenophobia. If I had my pick of law enforcement agencies and my first choice was ICE you would be justified to think I must have some deep animosity towards the type of people I would be disrupting and deporting. Rather than seeking justice for victims of crime, catching murderers and rapists, keeping dangerous drugs out of your community, I would be choosing to deport immigrants as my primary role in law enforcement. Not that other law enforcement agencies aren't full of terrible people with awful motivations too, but I can't see a single redeemable rational reason that one would desire to join ICE. They are all either racists, apathetic losers or completely deluded about what they are doing.
The only reason I'd work for ICE is to sabotage their actions at every turn with actions that could be written off as incompetence, or in ways that are not really detectable, salt in the gears type of shit.
A fun, obviously very very very VERY wrong, idea I think about is Trump breaking the country on purpose to reveal the flaws and loopholes, to force action to fix them. A benevolent imbecile. I wish it were the case.
It's just another flavor of cop. Some try to be good at first and either ending up becoming a full pig or quitting entirely
Legal experts warn that his views compromise his ability to fairly represent the government in immigration proceedings.
On the contrary. He is perfectly qualified to represent the current Administration.

Darn shame this reporting didn’t come out a few months earlier
0% surprised.
100% frightened.
Occam's Razor strikes again.
Paul Ryan was really into a band that sings a song about this until they got too political.
Ok? It’s not like this is going to change literally ANYTHING? I’m not past “wouldn’t be surprised if” and honestly expecting him to get a pat on the back and then to continue on in his job.
