Journalist Tests ICE Recruitment; Surprised to Find Herself Hired with No Background Check

I am sure a conservative journalist could find something similar under a Democratic president. I take it with a pinch of salt as this is a sample size of 1. Still a curious experiment.

So they give a 6 month working period before putting them on the street. That's the test right there.

Sounds about right. Shows they are willing to hire people of different ideologies, offers it as proof that they are literally the Gestapo.

Leftists are idiots.

I seem to recall several illegal aliens in positions of power in Democrat run governments that were recently exposed. How did that happen?

No background check? Hmmmmm.

When this is your opening paragraph you immediately realize this is not a serious article.

The plan, when I went to the Immigration and Customs Enforcement Career Expo in Texas last August, was to learn what it was like to apply to be an ICE agent. Who wouldn't be curious? The event promised on-the-spot hiring for would-be deportation officers: Walk in unemployed, walk out with a sweet $50k signing bonus, a retirement account, and a license to brutalize the country's most vulnerable residents without consequenceall while wrapped in the warm glow of patriotism.

Democracynow is a radical, socialist/communist outlet.

Nothing the publish should ever be considered to be truthful or honest.
"If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves." - Sir Winston Churchill

ICE recruitment requires an extensive background check.

I'm calling BS on this "journalist".

What are you talking about? That is journalizm today. Cloak a supposed attempt to provide neutral facts in a gotcha statement in the opening paragraph.

The surprise betrays her side. The absence of a political screening mechanism shouldn't be news. The fact she expected that political bias would be checked before extending a govt job is an indictment on the immorality of the left who is either doing so already, or has an inhuman perception of their enemies.

I saw a clip of her talking about the experience making the rounds on the socials so I tried to look up the actual article she wrote. It's on a website called "Slate" and the vast majority was behind a paywall. Found this as it transcribed an interview she gave. Figured it would be easier to read quickly through that then sit through a 10 min interview to get the gist of what she experienced. Only reason that link was chosen.

Can't wait to hear how she does in the firearms training portion.

And of course the "how to brutalize" people training. I assume they don't hire people who already have these skills so they have to train them.

You write as if you never heard of "Slate Magazine" before........

"Slate" was established in 1996 and has been known as a far left publication for a long time.

It's not surprising that the "journalist" entered the "interview" to deceive, then try to demean and make a mockery of the process in her article. After all, Slate probably sponsored it.


Quote by Laura Jadeed, in the article......

"Many of ICE's critics worry that the agency is hoovering up pro-Trump thugsJan. 6 insurrectionists, white nationalists, etc.for a domestic security force loyal to the president. The truth, my experience suggests, is perhaps even scarier: ICE's recruitment push is so sloppy that the administration effectively has no idea who's joining the agency's ranks. We're all, collectively, in the dark about whom the state is arming, tasking with the most sensitive of law enforcement work, and then sending into America's streets.

And we are all, collectively discovering just how deadly of an arrangement that really is."




It's just another meaningless, leftist attack-article on the institutions trying to clean up the utter mess created by the Biden Administration, and other DemoCommieaRats.

"So I logged on to the ICE hiring portal. And what I found was that not only did the drug test not seem to be relevant, I had been I was listed as having joined ICE as of three days earlier. I had listed that I had accepted the offer."

This is the operative sentence that the entire article is based upon. She saw she was listed as hired when she logged onto the portal.

Everything else, the "license to brutalize the country's most vulnerable residence", the "they want to give everyone a gun and immediately put them on the streets", etc., is all hyperbole and dreamed-up wishful thinking.

Much more likely, some idiot placed her pending application into active status by mistake. And whirrrrrrr goes the propaganda machine.

ETA: If she was a true investigative reporter rather than an ideological propagandist, she would have played out the scenario and showed up for work. It would either turn into a real story, or she would discover it was a simple mistake and she was not indeed "hired".

But that's what a real reporter would do. She could discover that the truth was not what she wanted to report, and I expect she didn't want to take that risk.

Read the article, sounds like she was not in fact hired, only they did want to hire her but she never completed the background check. Also, results of drug test were not known.

Mountain/Molehill here. I can promise she is leaving out a lot of details to make a point.

Correct. Even as an agricultural inspector with Customs and Border Protection, on entry and every five years came the background investigation.

She wouldn't even know where to show up. You're hired out of a certain office and you show up on an assigned day. You stay there until your FLETC assignment, and then you go back to your field office.

It's a ridiculous process to get in and I believe that your post is exactly right, she saw something in the portal and assumed that was it and they really are just hiring anyone.

Additionally, this doesn't take in to account all of the people that get washed out during pre FLETC and FLETC. Half of my friends class or not was gone by the time he finished FLETC.

Look that lady up.

I'm not going to assume she's telling the truth about anything.

The Democracy Now! article seems to even misrepresent what she herself said.

I don't believe anyone is just walking up to tables at job fairs and getting hired and handed $50k signing bonuses the same day.
