ICE agents rebel, say Trump ‘betrayed’ them by retaining Obama’s people
The country’s immigration enforcement officers launched a website Tuesday demanding that President Trump do more to clean up their agency, saying he has left the Obama team in place and it’s stymying his goal of enforcing laws on the books.
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement supervisors in Philadelphia banned officers from wearing bulletproof vests during an operation in the dangerous “badlands” section in the city’s north for fear of offending the immigrant community, according to a new website, JICReport.com.
Meanwhile, officers in one Utah city are required to give city officials seven days’ heads-up before arresting anyone — and by the time they go to make the arrest, the immigrants they are targeting have taken off, the website says.
Compiled by the National ICE Council, which represents ICE officers, the website is part whistleblower and part primal scream for Mr. Trump to pay attention to a group of people who were among his staunchest backers during the presidential campaign.
“ICE Officers grudgingly admit that the only President they ever endorsed hasn’t kept his word, and many officers now feel betrayed,” the officers say on the website.
National ICE Council President Chris Crane, in an open letter to Mr. Trump , posted on the site, said he finds himself regularly having to defend the president to ICE officers who backed Mr. Trump during the campaign but now feel “stab[bed] in the back” by the administration

Imagine putting agents lives in danger, so as not to offend immigrants! That is the rhetoric of Obama. Trump continues to be his own worst enemy.
The Obama people should have been removed as soon as Trump came in!
Btw before we have any fake outrage, here's the link:
True, Trump should have done a deep house cleaning including slugs like Comey.
The REAL problem is not what Trump is doing or not doing, but the liberally controlled sanctuary cities, like Denver, where I live. Lots of horror stories that continually occur in this town that have to do with illegals and how the Democrats protect them, especially criminals.
The problem with sanctuary cities is a weakness in the law - there are no penalties written in. Congress needs to specifically write them in when it passes a budget.
I hate to say it, because you live in such an environment, but the denial of funds is probably the way congress will go. I would prefer the prosecution of city officials
Interesting that an enforcement arm of the federal government openly admits it is staffed not by law enforcement professionals but by political hacks.
Obama politicized every agency of government
What did I say, exactly?
You keep repeating that, but it is not what I said.
For those who may be wondering I used Holders view of 'hate crime" as Obama's AG to demonstrate Holder's racist ideology.
From the mouth of Holder:
Sha'll we give em more?
Ok :
Here's more:
So let's see you wanted the Attorney General to prosecute someone for a bomb plot when NO evidence of them having or attempting to get a bomb existed?! But yet you probably didn't have a problem when Holder refused prosecute a WHITE MAN for terrorist acts for plotting a mass murder on a Muslim town in the US huh?
Thank you for the link..
There is the absolute evidence of what I said there, and again here. Please note that it was YOU and ONLY YOU who said - that I said - "Holder persecuted white people"
Also noted are the usual code violations.
All I wanted of the Attorney General, the only AG to be held in contempt of Congress, was to do his job in an even handed and fair way.
