This week one of my supervisors bought me dinner and I sat and had a fantastic chat with both of mine this evening over a cup of tea. I absolutely love both of them and 100% agree with this.

I dream of the day being part of ICE is what gets people in trouble rather than a carte blanche for violence
ICE employee among 16 men arrested in Bloomington sex trafficking sting, police say.
"When he was arrested, he said, 'I'm ICE, boys,'" Hodges said during a press conference Tuesday. "Well, unfortunately for him, we locked him up."
