While immigration officers support the Trump administration’s goal of deporting undocumented migrants, many of them have grown ‘disillusioned’ with leadership’s tactics, according to reports
Morale is “plummeting” among federal law enforcement officers tasked with carrying out the Trump administration’s aggressive anti-immigration operation, as they complained that long hours, ambitious arrest quotas and hatred from the public, according to reports.
While officers at Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Customs and Border Patrol, overseen by the Department of Homeland Security, said they supported the administration’s goal of deporting undocumented migrants, many of them have grown “disillusioned” with the tactics being implemented by leadership.
More than 20 current and former immigration officials told The New York Times of their discontent in the hours following the fatal shooting of 37-year-old nurse Alex Pretti by a federal agent in Minneapolis.
It was the second deadly shooting of a U.S. citizen carried out by a federal agent in weeks, as officers clashed with protesters following intense public anger over the violence in Minneapolis.
Did they ever stop for a second to think that maybe…just maybe…they’re the baddies?
Like, seriously…history hasn’t judged people like them as being right since, like, the 1600s.
That’s the problem with echo chambers. You start thinking you’re the good guy and that everyone thinks like you, because that’s all you interact with. When you leave that bubble, you get a harsh reality check.
It’s like “If you don’t want to be hated, then stop doing hateful things!”
Say what you will about AI, but right now anyone who has an on prem model has a sort of snapshot of human history/knowledge/discourse.
They’re like 3-6 months behind current news.
So, by like August everything we’ve been through this far will be basically immutable human history. Eradicating every download of every competent model would be even less realistic than taking away Americans guns. By a lot.
