Federal immigration agents will “hate” being deployed to assist airport security operations amid Transportation Security Administration (TSA) staffing shortages, an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) official told Newsweek.

“The HSI agents will hate it,” the official said, referring to Homeland Security Investigations personnel. “I’ve not heard any talk of this within ERO (Enforcement and Removal Operations). They want us arresting and deporting aliens.”

The official, who requested anonymity to speak freely, said they first heard about the reassignment when they were contacted by Newsweek over the weekend.

    Lol these fuckers have to do a fake ass theater job for a day and they complain.

    This whole situation is ICE’s fault. The irony of them stealing TSA jobs is not lost here.

      You don’t understand—the want to be out black-bagging immigrants and beating people up. That’s what they signed up for. A cushy, boring TSA gig is valuable time not spent keeping the nation White and taking out their aggression on “the enemy.”
