That's so open-minded of them. Everyone is welcome.

So... if your visa has expired... can you just join ICE instead?

The Minnesota subreddit apparently knows ICE Agent Greg Bovino.

Hello, Minneapolis resident here but I didn’t always live in Minneapolis. Once, long ago I lived in a quiet little mountain town of Boone, NC. Guess who else grew up there? A pathetic squat little toad named Gregory Bovino. Well, that squat little toad grew up to be a squat little Nazi toad who has decided to come to my beautiful adopted home to torture, murder, and terrorize my friends and neighbors. He is personally going door to door, so if you see him, here’s a few very specific things from home you can politely yell at him:

“Hey Greg! Remember how your Dad murdered a woman in Blowing Rock while driving drunk? Like father like son I guess.”

Americans have the opportunity to do a very funny thing now...

I wonder if I, a european, could get enlisted with ICE. Would they be dumb enough for that?

[–] SanctimoniousApe@lemmings.world 30 points 5 days ago

You seriously need to ask? I'll bet you just act like an angry moronic asshole, and you're qualified!

[–] Drusas@fedia.io 14 points 5 days ago (1 children)

They'd probably hire you, but then you'd have some trouble when they need your identifying documents for tax purposes/to get you on the payroll.

Everyone apply for ICE!

Either the system gets so bogged down they can't recruit anyone, or we end up outnumbering them. Either way, we resist them.

[–] DarkSpectrum@lemmy.world 14 points 4 days ago (2 children)

it would be hilarious if ICE was full of anti trump personnel

[–] bampop@lemmy.world 7 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

If just one ICE agent in 50 were a low-key saboteur just quietly, "accidentally" fucking up every single thing that comes their way, it would be disastrous for ICE

[–] OshagHennessey@lemmy.world 9 points 4 days ago

I'm gleefully imagining the Truth Social rant where he calls ICE woke

[–] BiteSizedZeitGeist@lemmy.world 6 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I wanna get that 50K signing bonus and then just bail out

Or just applying and forgetting just to tie up their system

[–] OshagHennessey@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

Read the fine print for the sign-on bonus to make sure. Either sounds like a worthy use of time, but everyone needs to decide for themselves what they're willing to do for the resistance; don't pick a fight just because some guy on the internet said it was a good idea.

Whatever your choice, you're the only one who will suffer the consequences of it, so it only needs to satisfy you.

[–] Randelung@lemmy.world 28 points 4 days ago (4 children)

It's by design. If you want to hire bottom of the barrel, you can't have any standards or loops to jump through, or you might lose applicants. As a bonus, people who recognize this won't even apply. As another bonus, articles keep spawning that make ICE out to be a badly run organisation of idiots, when in reality it's actually exactly what it's meant to be and run by ruthless fascists.

Phew! At LEAST they're Allowing these Unknown and Heavily Armed Men into our Schools and Kidnapping our Children!

[–] calliope@retrolemmy.com 48 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Don’t forget that every single one of those unknown, heavily armed men are choosing to be ICE. They want to do that.

Imagine being so bereft of a conscience that you put on a mask and camo for Donald Trump.

A significant number are probably people who were convicted of crimes relating to January 6th, 2021 and now have free rein to do what they want.

I mean... isn't that every MAGAt's wet dream?

[–] FalschgeldFurkan@lemmy.world 55 points 5 days ago (2 children)

Imagine them hiring undocumented migrants and never finding out about it

[–] cheesybuddha@lemmy.world 9 points 4 days ago

Those are the "good" ones.

Until it's their turn.

If true we could all sign up and waste a lot of their time.

[–] GenosseFlosse@feddit.org 4 points 4 days ago

Why not get hired and also submit your daily timesheets to get paid?

[–] 0x0@infosec.pub 10 points 4 days ago

Do they check citizenship?

[–] Grail@multiverse.soulism.net 17 points 4 days ago (6 children)

I wonder if I should tell My disabled nonbinary partner to sign up for ICE, grab the 50 grand, and flee the country with it

[–] Rooster326@programming.dev 30 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (1 children)

The sign on bonus is a retention bonus for staying 5 years. You, myself, the entire world know he is not good for paying bills.

Every single member eligible hire will be let go at 4 Years 354 days, or just not paid at all. See the $2,000 Check they were going to send to every American.

[–] evol@lemmy.today 5 points 4 days ago (1 children)

5 years is crazy, even Elon companies don't make you wait 5 years for a vest

[–] Rooster326@programming.dev 5 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (1 children)

It's because the election is a 4 year cycle. He will either be dead, in jail, or emperor supreme by the time the 5 years is up so he will never have to pay.

[–] evol@lemmy.today 6 points 4 days ago

Ah Art of the deal, See this is why im not president

[–] OshagHennessey@lemmy.world 11 points 4 days ago

Do it. Crime is legal now.

Are background checks woke?

Sounds like a lot of people who want them to fail could get a job working for them....

This is pedo Antoinette’s SA. The SA in Germany terrorized the Jews and opposition into submission by the time the Gestapo took over. The SA was considered undisciplined and the SA leader was killed in the night of the long knives. Members of the SA that didn’t make the cut were sent to fight Hitlers imperialist wars or man the concentration camps.

Yeah it’s the the right wing militia groups joining ICE. They’re advertising directly to them.

Ok so I can't read the actual whole article because apparently it's paywalled but from the bit I was allowed to read (and the writing style seems to pad out quite a bit so it never actually gets really to the point) seems to indicate that they are just trying to hit targets which is why they're not checking people.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 15 points 4 days ago

Stephen "PeeWee Himmler" Miller has demanded a daily quota of scalps, and they haven't been able to come close, even with their openly Unconstitutional tactics, because his quota is comically high. So PeeWee Himmler is demanding a comically high number of agents to accomplish it.

He's a psychopath who probably goes into screaming fits at the slightest provocation, so they are desperate to keep the lid on his fury, so they are hiring as many breathing bodies as possible, no matter what it takes.

I'm definitely too old, but they have a really good signing bonus, and I could use the money, so now I'm considering signing up, just for the money, and the fun. I'd love to get in there, collect a fat paycheck, and be ridiculously incompetent at the job. It's a government job, they won't fire me, and they need warm bodies really badly. So they'll just probably stick me in a dark office somewhere where I can doze all day, and scroll my phone, and fuck up everybody's paperwork on the computer. Maybe I'll bring my guitar into the office to play while the boys are out building up their charges for their future court cases.

BTW, they get 47 days of training. Do you know why its that specific number? Because Trump is the 47th president. That means someone decided to make the training period that length because they knew Trump would hear about it, and they wanted to get that little rimjob in to please him.

What a bunch of fucking losers.
