Insiders are saying the Department of Homeland Security’s ICE hiring is in “chaos” and Homeland Security Advisor Stephen Miller is reportedly angry over “lagging” deportation numbers.
A DHS source told The Daily Beast on Monday that President Donald Trump’s push to “throw money around” while "panic at the top of government” has unfolded with Miller’s disappointment over agents not reaching Trump’s goal of 3,000 deportations per day.
“There are calls with Miller, where everyone is being screamed at,” the official told The Beast. “The targets he is setting for them are ridiculous, and it is a case of them just spending any money they can to increase the number of officers and deportations.”
Hiring within the agency has also presented other problems — agents joining before badges, system access or guns are available. Some say the money offer is luring veteran agents back and “insiders claim that the crash program has led to disorder, with some veteran agents performing minimal work for substantial pay and ballooning costs.”
Former executive-level leaders from HSI and Enforcement and Removal Operations have returned to the agency, “some of them taking home north of $250,000 for office-based shiftwork, per multiple sources who spoke to the Beast,” the outlet reports.
Kristi Noem, Secretary of Homeland Security, has claimed that many of the new agents would be law enforcement returnees.
However, according to several insiders, several former senior employees have returned to the federal pay scale.
“With locality pay in high-cost areas—such as parts of Texas, California, and New York—adding 35 percent or more to a basic salary, agents can earn up to $137,000 in the majority of the country. This rises to $171,268 in more expensive parts of the country, such as San Jose and San Francisco,” The Beast reports.
Sources say that overtime pay has also added to the high paychecks, in addition to “ongoing federal pensions worth around $8,000–$9,000 a month, and some rehires can land well in excess of a quarter of a million annually.”
Stephen Miller has always been a piece of shit
Can we deport Miller into the center of the sun
It would actually take less energy to send him out of the solar system. Huge delta v to slow down enough to get to the sun.
What about if he pays someone $100 to strangle him while they look into his eyes?
Stephen Miller has to know his day is up, Day of the Rope for you traitor bitches
This guy is like a walking piece of celery
Miller should be grateful that “lagging numbers” are the worst thing he’s had to deal with, so far. We’ve been FAR more patient with ICE than they deserve.
Miller knows he’s also in danger.
I personally know people who would take the first opportunity they had to make sure he could never cause as much damage as he has again.
The only good Nazi…
ICE is being extra cruel because of this. The numbers Miller expect are outrageous, which is why ICE does everything they can to meet them. Grab a guy who was just walking out of his immigration hearing? Drag mothers from their cars while their kid is inside crying? Raid entire apartment blocks? That’s exactly what happens when law enforcement has to meet a quota at any cost.
Corporate metrics applied to ruining lives.
You just unlocked a memory and made me realize who he’s reminded me of this whole time!
he makes me think of Clayton Bigsby, the black white supremacist
stephen miller is the jewish nazi
Stephen Miller is the biggest piece of shit I have ever seen. I want to personally punch him in the face more than anyone else on the planet.
Keep him screaming. Maybe his head will finally explode.
I am imagining that Hitler “Downfall” clip, only in real life
Yup
Americans, now living under neo-Confederate occupation, completely shocked and watching Stephen Miller left to the mercy of the “useless idiots,” he screamed at for not hurting enough people and making him rich fast enough.
But also, it’s a slimy little worm man doing the shouting.
you mean The Great White Worm, certainly!
You mean Hitler or Miller?
Yes.
Yep
Mmmhmmm
Dang ol’ yup, man
I wasn’t sure who the original gif was but I tried to replace it with one more resembling of Miller
He needs to put on a pair of glasses, so his hands can tremble as he takes them off.
Come on, where are AI deepfakes if you need them?
some of them taking home north of $250,000 for office-based shiftwork
Sucking up resources and not actually shooting and teargassing innocent people? These are the least-awful people there!
That would honestly be the best thing you could do, is get hired at one of these really expensive positions, then just do nothing. So you’re draining resources from those that could do real damage, and directly taking the place from someone who could do worse.
I genuinely hope that there’s a movement among vets to just this. What a good way to get something back from the gov for the trauma they put them through while protecting their fellow Americans. Just be a wrench in the gears of the immigrant crushing machine.
That’s exactly what I was thinking of when I wrote the comment above. You want to grind the gears of fascism to a screeching, sputtering halt from within.
the US is spending resources to harass those who produce them
Nonsense! If we can just get all the Wrong Kind of People out, and let only the Right Kind of People in, then we will finally achieve Trump’s Economic Miracle the US will be Great Again and big grown men with tears in their eyes from all the winning
With numbers declining, he only has a half chub. He needs to be full mast to do his job.
He’s almost as mad as that time in high school he was told to clean after himself.
