Taggart!
Yes, sir?
I’ve decided to launch an attack that will reduce Rock Ridge to ashes.
What do you want me to do?
Round up…
…every vicious criminal and gunslinger in the West. Take this down.
I want rustlers, cutthroats, murderers, bounty hunters…
…desperadoes, mugs, pugs, thugs,
nitwits, halfwits, dimwits…
…vipers, snipers, con men, Indian agents, Mexican bandits…
…muggers, buggerers, bushwhackers, hornswogglers…
…horse thieves, bull dykes, train robbers, bank robbers, asskickers…
…shitkickers and Methodists!
"Qualifications?"
"Rape, murder, arson, and rape."
"You said rape twice?"
"I like rape."
"Sign right here."

And ICE will become the acronym for
Immigration and CONCEPTION ENFORCEMENT
Because we need to make babies to supply the military.

(3,391 posts)Anyone or anything that dare oppose the unbridled abject fascist depravity is currently being targeted.
High profile individuals wherever possible.
Fascism is comprised of three modalities:
• Intimidation
• Incarceration
• Extermination
This is that.

(275 posts)These people are on the Federal payroll. Democrats need to find out who they are and publish this list.
Most likely Oath Keepers, Proud Boys, and KKK members.
If DOGE can get access to Federal employees' personal information so should someone get access to ICE employees.

(39,062 posts)Intimidation, Control and Expulsion is looking for people just like you ! Good pay, lots of (masked) camera time, and daily chances to beat down people you don't like (usually brown, or with funny un-American names) -- women and children, too! Be your own law and proudly wear the anonymous black uniform (or plainclothes) of ICE!

(14,226 posts)There's a serious qualification issue with many of the young men that are MAGA and not already employed.
Yes, they can probably find a couple hundred thousand willing to sign up. But could they find 20k that would still show up after a month.
MAGA boys are rarely hungry enough to follow through with actual day to day work on someone else's schedule if they have to actually be responsible for something.
They'll get 20k guys that will most likely spend time drinking Energy Drinks and playing on their phones on the taxpayer dime until told to swarm a neighborhood looking for brown folks.

(10,881 posts)Noem had to sit in front of a Congressional committee the other day and get yelled at because DHS is gonna be out of approved funding by JULY.
That's exactly what I was thinking.
And for the record, I have dated a lot of beautiful women (yes, I think she's physically beautiful) and I have never been able to go off on anyone for 30 seconds, let alone 5 minutes like Sen. Murphy did and have them just sit there silently. That really shocked me how quiet she was.
