(28,670 posts)Well over 20% have been in their jobs for more than 5 years. If they participated in January 6th they would have been fired.

(9,269 posts)It's a worst case scenario and obviously ICE would never "officially" confirm it.

(583 posts)And how many original ICE have left or complained about the current operations now that Miller is in charge?

(1,170 posts)It seems a fanciful conclusion as much as we want to believe. I would think long term social repercussions would be getting doxed or having someone follow up after an action.

(1,589 posts)I didnt intend to state as a fact that the statement in the tweet proved that 80 percent of ICE members attacked the Capitol.

(1,439 posts)this answers a lot of questions. Questions like, "Where did they get such losers?" Questions like, "Do you believe in Shoot now, ask questions later?"

(7,718 posts)Sometimes it just means . . . I suspect that a majority . . .
Quoting 80% is just . . . not acceptable!
But yes, ID and no masks will turn a lot off the job.
Relatives, spouses, kids, neighbours etc will be asking questions!

(12,798 posts)Not just that, they believe the people who oppose what they are doing would do violence to them.
They believe Trump's declarations that those opposed to his criminal regime are terrorists. Of course, it is all projection of their own bloodlust
It wouldn't surprise me that 80% fear being publicly identified. They would happily do violence to fellow Americans they despise. They assume those they despise would do violence to them.
