I think that NONE of the thugs doing the actual dirty work of rounding people up are employed by ICE. I think ICE has contracted that work iut to private firms, so that they can claim that ICE agents never mishandled anyone. It was all done on their behalf by hired goons.

So, what’s the difference between a real hired goon and a fake hired goon? One robs your freedom, while the other robs your money. It’s probably not always clear which is easier to replace.
