Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin stated, “It is sickening to see how many pedophiles, sex offenders, and violent thugs were allowed to roam our streets and prey on Americans. Every single day ICE arrests these criminals and is removing them from our country.”
“President Trump and [DHS] Secretary [Kristi] Noem are calling on patriotic Americans who want to help remove these sickos from our country to apply to become [an] ICE officer at JOIN.ICE.GOV,” she added.
The DHS noted that Americans are applying to join ICE “in droves” to help the agency’s “mission to remove the worst of the worst criminal illegal aliens.”
“DHS encourages Americans – of any age – with a commitment to public safety, national service, and upholding the rule of law to apply to join ICE today and help DHS remove the worst of the worst from our communities,” the DHS stated.
