Attorney General Pam Bondi was so furious with six federal prosecutors who announced they would resign rather than prosecute the widow of a Minnesota woman killed by an ICE agent that she fired them before they had a chance to give their notice.

    Correct me if I am wrong here: Are there women in ICE? All I have seen are men who look like they are divorced and not paying their child support.

      A quick search brings up stats from 10 years ago, and at that time about 7% were women.

      No idea what the number is now, but I’ve seen recent information (news reports, vlogs, etc.) mentioning, and showing women in ICE uniforms.

      I believe there are women in ICE, which isn’t surprising, but not very many.

      Just yesterday, we had the story of a female journalist who claims she was admitted to ICE with no vetting. So, they at least allow women to enter.

      I’ve seen photos with feminine appearing stature / eyes doing on the street enforcement, I would assume them to be in the extreme minority in that context.

      There’s also back-end desk work where physical characteristics aren’t really going to matter.
