ICE has no idea who they’re hiring. Period.
According to Laura Jedeed, a Trump critic who openly opposes ICE, the agency offered her a job after a 6 minute interview. No paperwork. No real vetting. Just name, age, and a fast track toward “as many guns and badges in the field as possible” her words.

This is likely to lead to thousands of Dem-leaning ballots to be rejected.
