Despite a historic recruitment drive that added 12,000 agents in recently, the agency’s administrative backbone appears to be buckling, with employees desperate enough to turn to the Reddit to detail their struggles.
In raw, unfiltered Reddit posts now spreading beyond law-enforcement circles, ICE officers describe going a month or more without a paycheque, struggling to secure medical cover for sick children, and watching promised bonuses quietly stall.
I saw a video talking about the $50k bonus promised to new ICE sign-ups and how it wasn’t actually a bonus because it’s structured like a payday loan.
They receive the first $10k after 90 days if they remain in “good standing” (the actual requirements to meet this are unclear and could be something as simple as no write-ups, to something insane like “must make 8 arrests per day”). Every year for the next 4 years, they receive another $10k as long as they continue to qualify.
However, if at any time during these 5 years they lose “good standing” or do something else to disqualify themselves for the bonus, they have to pay it back. Again, it’s not clear how much they’ll have to pay back, but clawbacks are in the agreement they sign.
Who wants to bet that these ICE jockeys didn’t read the fine print before signing up?
They’re illiterate. Actually illiterate.
Get grifted you fucking nazis
“too-fancy weed store”. 😄
Ngl i had this once. There were so many cool things to look at, i almost forgot what i was there for. I felt bad for only wanting to buy some papers for € 1.
Get fucked and step in front of a bus. No one cares, and I cant wait to read your obituaries so I can dig up your corpses and burn them.
Fuck fascists.
Good, fuck them fascists to death.
This is FAKE NEWS! I’m an ICE Agent and EVEN though I STILL haven’t Been Paid I’m NOT Complaining because Trump is allowing me to LIVE my Dream of KIDNAPPING AND RAPING CHILDREN WITH FULL TAXPAYER FUNDED BACKING! And if this Statement is FALSE then WHY Aren’t we Allowing Lawmakers Cameras Journalists or Law Enforcement INTO our Child Raping Facilities? LIBTARDS!
This, this is where my hope remains. Not in the protests, not in the solidarity, not in the lobbying, it’s the fact that McShitMyPants is incontinent and incompetent and their whole group cannot help but eat each other.
I just finished reading “a game of birds and wolves” about the anti-uboat war game that came up with the tactics that eventually won the battle of the Atlantic, and my biggest takeaway is that Germany could never have won. Eventually, Fascist regimes fall to infighting and paranoia. It happened then, it will happen now.
Who knew an ideology based on ruthless competition would fail at a task that requires cooperation?
Certainly a short-sighted high school dropout wannabe cop could’ve seen this coming
Should’ve would’ve.
Have the day you signed up for, morons!
Idiots desired a businessman in the white house but were unfamiliar with what that meant. He really just wants to tear everything we have down and sell the country for parts.
Some kinda sleazy used nation salesman
They should be paid in lead.
I’m pretty sure I got two in my neighborhood. They were both jogging for about a month and then quit. I still see one of them and he has the rapist/murderer crew cut now.
The grift knows no bounds.
Good, Fuck em.
Fuck Reddit and Fuck Spez.
Fuck Reddit and Fuck Spez.
