I’ve already covered this a few times, but, Axios’ Brittany Gibson is especially unhinged with this headline, or, at least whichever editor wrote it
Trump’s immigration enforcers play host for the World Cup
The agency driving President Trump’s mass deportation campaign is now preparing to welcome millions of foreign visitors at the World Cup.
Why it matters: The June 12 kickoff in Los Angeles — followed by 77 matches in just over a month — will trigger a wave of arrivals who’ll come face-to-face with the immigration system that’s generated backlash over the last year.
Activists, soccer fans and even a former FIFA president have cautioned against coming to the U.S., claiming visitors should fear racial profiling, surveillance, and even ICE detention.
Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin pushed back on those concerns in a CBS News interview, saying ICE won’t be there to “round up” immigrants at matches.
“It’s Immigration and Custom[s] Enforcement,” Mullin told CBS News. “So what do you find at a tremendous amount of sporting events? Counterfeit products, counterfeit tickets. You have counterfeit clothing being sold on the streets.”
It’s highly offensive to refer to ICE agents as “enforcers”, when they are simply doing the job authorized by duly elected Congresses. And a goodly chunk do things like stopping human trafficking, which usually involves women and children being trafficked.
ICE, and its Homeland Security Investigation team, are responsible for preventing human trafficking, instances of which are known to increase during major sporting events, and combating the sale of counterfeit goods.
Many other departments of the DOJ, along with the Coast Guard, will be doing all sorts of security, so, fuck off with this enforcer shit.
Elsewhere
In response to the Trump administration’s recent attacks on migrant communities, officials announced that the state will expand the funding and availability of legal services meant to help immigrants facing detention and deportation.
Gov. Mikie Sherrill, a first-term Democrat, said in a Thursday news release that New Jersey will devote another $12 million to the Detention Deportation Defense Initiative, which provides free legal representation to poor residents slated for removal.
The state will also create a Rapid Legal Response Initiative to fight expedited deportations that happen without due process, challenge other unlawful third-country deportations, and prevent transfers that push detainees far from their families and legal counsel, among other things.
Mickie cares more about the illegals than the citizens of NJ who are seeing their energy prices skyrocket, making everything else skyrocket.

ICE can get involved when all those foreign FIFA fans overstay their visas.
Unhinged Markwayne said: “You have counterfeit clothing being sold on the streets.”
So ICE agents checking clothing tags?
You’re being incredibly naive to believe King Donny will not take advantage of tens of thousands of foreigners being here.
The Epstein videos and pics that the FBI inventoried after opening Epstein’s safe. You no longer remember that ? That was 2019. A quick Google search showed inventoried 170,000 images.Binders filled with CDs.
