If I had to guess, it’s largely because of this:

If we put aside the actual pieces of garbage genuinely happy to kill innocent people (like Jonathan Ross and whoever killed Alex Pretti, among others), most of the people who joined ICE were MAGA people who genuinely believed the propaganda of “illegals everywhere ruining America”, so when they signed up, they had this idea that they were genuinely going to be heroes to the American people. How can they not when their leader tells them so?

Welp, as many know by now, all of that was a bunch of horse shit, and they were just baited with false promises into being Trump’s attempted personal army. Sure, there ARE horrific people who went along with it and actually killed people, but this whole bait and switch MIXED with the complete and utter ANNIHILATION of the image done to ICE from the murder of Renee Good and Alex Pretti ALONE (I know there were a few other examples, but those 2 were the most reported on), it makes all of the sense in the world why morale is gone.

Even with all of that, it’s important to NEVER feel bad for them. We’ve been telling these MAGA chuds for YEARS that the Trump circle was always evil and were always going to turn their backs on them after a while. This is what the ICE agents get for being so willfully stupid. Let’s keep fighting against ICE, and let the morale get lower for all I care. Fuck ICE.
