Retirees Wanted
And the bonus money is impressive:
Uncle Sam. Miami Vice. When it comes to recruiting new Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers, the Trump administration is getting creative.
A social-media campaign launched late last month touted immigration enforcement as an opportunity for father-son bonding and to “deport illegals with your absolute boys,” a slang term for close friends. The Department of Homeland Security has invoked world-war-era imagery and touted 1990s Superman actor Dean Cain in an all-out blitz to persuade Americans they should join ICE’s ranks.
The federal government also offered hefty incentives: up to $50,000 in signing bonuses and up to $60,000 in student loan forgiveness. No undergraduate degree is required. DHS also lifted the age cap for law-enforcement roles, opening a deportation officer position specifically for people over 40, and tried to woo back retired law-enforcement officials with a “return to mission” campaign.
“America has been invaded by criminals and predators,” the agency says on its recruiting website. “We need YOU to get them out.”
No idea (yet) if you have to relocate or you can serve your time here, which would be hilarious seeing as how Conehead and Fata$$ have sworn to protect ILLEGAL ALIENS over citizens, but now you'd have Federal credentials. We imagine there will be a minimum time of service to qualify for the entire recruitment bonus.
So far, over 110,000 people have applied nationwide, many retired cops.
