Get out your tiny violin for the disgruntled and disaffected ICE agents who think Donald Trump and ICE Barbie Kristi Noem are putting them in untenable positions.
The New York Times spoke to more than 20 current and former immigration officials for an article titled, “A Crisis of Confidence for ICE and Border Patrol as Clashes Escalate.”
Former immigration officer Oscar Hagelsieb, a Trump supporter who spent nearly 25 years on the job and remains proud of his work, was a chief source for The Times. He was described as feeling “anger and despair at how the Trump administration was deploying his former agency.”
“You’re not addressing the problem by throwing a 500-pound gorilla into these inner cities,” Mr. Hagelsieb reportedly said. “It’s completely unfair to the agents who have been put in this position. … They’re causing chaos, and unfortunately it’s costing lives.”
