"The Truth About ICE's Recruiting Push"...
...from the attached article...
--------------------
One ICE official I spoke with told me that some of the new hires, especially rehired retirees, are having second thoughts. Hundreds of the returning officers have been ordered to Minnesota, two officials said, where the administration is conducting the largest-ever DHS crackdown. Some officers have been so cold and miserable that they’ve already quit, and ICE officials have held calls to figure out how to deal with the sudden resignations.
Returning officers who have come back from retirement are finding themselves in unfamiliar roles. They spent much of their careers trying to conduct low-key “targeted enforcement” operations in which they planned arrests in advance and sought to take suspects into custody in the safest and least dramatic way possible. Now they’re out in the streets wearing masks, with protesters yelling at them and video cameras rolling. ICE has changed, and the job isn’t the same.

We had an ICE retiree come into the lobby of one of our facilities last week in MN.
His prior role was with the IMAGE program (Compliance Assistance and a safe harbor for I-9s/E-Vetify.). He dropped off a flyer and asked a few questions, including do we know any other businesses that are hiring illegals.

While you are unlikely to read the link to this post, it's there for fair minded others to view, and
appreciate the lengths that true journalists abide by...including "Unnamed Sources"...
If you rely on FOX (the folks who have yet to apologize to anyone for Knowingly Lying about Dominion Voting Machines and "Stolen Election" claims in 2020), you'll only find amorphous corporate level 'Policies'...not the detailed standards that WaPo and the NYT publish.
You make very poor choices for media input.

Please NEVER lecture others about not reading your links...oh, the irony...

You want me to rely on the same people you endorse that lied about Covid, Hunter laptop, Russia,
Biden's mental capabilities, police officers were killed on J6, mostly peaceful protests, Clinton Russia connection, Russia election interference, climate change. I could go on and on and on. I did some real research that took all of 5 minutes on the author of the piece you thought was a game changer. Turns out, it's as biased as you.
LOL...you're very good at going "On and On"...but still no substance to support any of your claims.
...what are you afraid of?...having to defend yourself in an adult discussion?...
Will you EVER provide substantive backup for your Graffiti posts?...How about starting now...what
can you refute?...with evidence...
You can't prove anything either. Just a biased article. I provide all kinds of back up.
You just don't want to hear it because you're to dug in to know when facts are facts.
Repeating the same claims doesn't qualify as "Substantive Backup"...Good Grief..,;-)

"slashed the length of the training course from about five months to 47 days...then cut it further"

It's actually more like 42 days, with only ~4 hrs of de-escalation training...Trump isn't wasting
time on 'Doing It Right'...just throwing taxpayer money at a political theater production to buttress his #1 campaign "Policy".
