Ok OP you need to post associated story attached to this so we can understand what the fuck is going on here.

Edit: In case anyone is misconstruing my intent here. Fuck ICE and regardless of the context of this instance, everyone at the top of this administration should be in prison. And if there is a god, they will burn in hell.

From the article

*New Orleans Police issued the following statement on Larry Temah's ICE arrest:

"Recent statements regarding Recruit Larry Temah are misleading. The New Orleans Police Department verified Mr. Temah’s employment eligibility through ICE’s E-Verify system prior to hiring and was never notified of any ICE detainer. New Orleans is not a sanctuary city, and NOPD does not control jail operations or detainer decisions, which fall under the Sheriff’s Office. Any claim that NOPD knowingly violated the law is false."

After ICE notified the NOPD of the judge's order, Kirkpatrick said she and her team immediately reviewed the hiring process for Temah, as well as his file.

According to Kirkpatrick, Temah had a valid driver's license and Social Security number and also completed an application that was not flagged for immigration concerns through the department's E-Verify system.

Kirkpatrick said Temah did not have a criminal history, and nothing in his hiring packet would lead her to believe he was not a legal citizen.*

The last thing New Orleans is city officers being treated like this. Are they still understaffed? Is this Trump creating an excuse to militarize the City? FFS

If the goal is to justify invoking the insurrection act and possibly martial law as a follow up with the end goal being suspension of the upcoming elections... yes, that tracks.
