While immigration officers support the Trump administration’s goal of deporting undocumented migrants, many of them have grown ‘disillusioned’ with leadership’s tactics, according to reports
Morale is “plummeting” among federal law enforcement officers tasked with carrying out the Trump administration’s aggressive anti-immigration operation, as they complained that long hours, ambitious arrest quotas and hatred from the public, according to reports.
While officers at Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Customs and Border Patrol, overseen by the Department of Homeland Security, said they supported the administration’s goal of deporting undocumented migrants, many of them have grown “disillusioned” with the tactics being implemented by leadership.
More than 20 current and former immigration officials told The New York Times of their discontent in the hours following the fatal shooting of 37-year-old nurse Alex Pretti by a federal agent in Minneapolis.
It was the second deadly shooting of a U.S. citizen carried out by a federal agent in weeks, as officers clashed with protesters following intense public anger over the violence in Minneapolis.
Good. Fuck you. You’re all terrible and will one day get exactly what you deserve.
Nazi scum.
Not enough.
May them and their families never have a peaceful night again.
Good. Fuck em. I hope they all die.
If they had any honor or humanity left in them they would kill their superiors and then themselves.
Good.
This is the first stage.
ICE are funded up until the end of FY2029, so that they can act as Trump’s personal army should the election not go his way. They cannot be defunded by anyone. That gives them over 3 years to weed out the weak, harden the strong, and practice urban combat.
So while I’m glad that these crybabies couldn’t hack the path they chose, I can’t be glad about what it’s doing to the overall makeup of ICE.
They still got a $50,000 starting bonus.
We need to cut their funding.
We need to cut their funding.
You can’t. They got given $77b. That is now their excess budget which they can carry forward for 4 years. You can, perhaps, claw some of it back, at least nominally. But getting that through the courts, and appeals, and the Supreme Court before it’s all spent? Not a chance.
“It’s completely unfair to the agents who have been put in this position,” he added. “There’s only so much they can handle before bad things start to happen.”
They knew exactly what they were getting themselves into. Most of them want those bad things to happen. They masturbate over the prospect of that brutality.
This is just some asshole trying to hand-wave away the crimes these people are doing under the guise of “boo hoo, poor them!”
They deserve zero sympathy. And all of them who have harassed, threatened, kidnapped, hurt, or murdered people should be brought to justice.
Did they ever stop for a second to think that maybe…just maybe…they’re the baddies?
Like, seriously…history hasn’t judged people like them as being right since, like, the 1600s.
It’s like “If you don’t want to be hated, then stop doing hateful things!”
That’s the problem with echo chambers. You start thinking you’re the good guy and that everyone thinks like you, because that’s all you interact with. When you leave that bubble, you get a harsh reality check.
Say what you will about AI, but right now anyone who has an on prem model has a sort of snapshot of human history/knowledge/discourse.
They’re like 3-6 months behind current news.
So, by like August everything we’ve been through this far will be basically immutable human history. Eradicating every download of every competent model would be even less realistic than taking away Americans guns. By a lot.
They’re like 3-6 months behind current news.
I love telling language models the current news. They are blown away, every time. I give them a “how plausible is my novel?” analysis then when they say not at all, I tell them it’s real, then allow them to search the news. Loads of fun, in a “watching the apocalypse slowly unfold” kind of way.
Good. They should feel miserable and hated.
This isn’t a fucking game to the people whose lives you are ruining.
Keep it up until they all quit. Then when we can go for convictions.
Poor things, facing a few weak consequences of their murderous brutality.
If it’s too much for them, suicide is always an option.
ICE, Do the world a favor and send yourselves to the shadow realm. Then you won’t need to get put on a list after this is all done.
I can never seem to find my nanoscopic violin when I need it. You wouldn’t believe how easily that tiny thing gets lost.
And so expensive to replace! You’d think “Surely someone can just pretend!”, but the true connoisseur of miniscule heart-rending accompaniment can always tell the difference.
…and don’t call me Shirley.
Good
