On the positive side, if you want to abolish ICE, I can’t think of a more efficient way to make that happen than forcing the business travel class to interact with ICE agents on a regular basis

Coincidentally, the reverse might also be a good way to get the ICE agents to quit.

Spread the rumour that there is this company called "Palantir" that tries to protect immigrants (leave out the "if they are white, racist South Africans") and wait to see how long ICE remains at airports...?

spara@jalefkowit Business class has Global Entry, Pre, and CLEAR. Probably not gonna interact with ICE.
@spara You’re assuming that ICE agents will narrowly confine themselves to the actual parameters of the task they’ve been given, rather than whipping their dicks out and waving them at everyone in sight to compensate for some untreated childhood trauma. I would not call that a safe assumption
@jalefkowit ICE seems to concentrate on certain neighborhoods or businesses. Seems like a pattern.
ClickyMcTicker@spara @jalefkowit You’re conflating ICE with TSA. Those are not the same agency.
Brint@ClickyMcTicker perhaps you missed the news: https://bsky.app/profile/cnn.com/post/3mhnnwjy3hm2k
CNN (@cnn.com)
President Donald Trump said Sunday border czar Tom Homan will be in charge of deploying ICE agents to airports on Monday, with Homan telling CNN the agents will assist with security at entrances and exits to ease TSA workload amid a partial government shutdown. https://cnn.it/4rSNfY7
James Smith@jalefkowit hopefully they don’t move all of the tsa agents to pre-check/Clear and use ICE for the other lines.
Misuse Case@jalefkowit I am pretty sure we share some brain cells.
Ben Ramsey@jalefkowit When asked if they have been trained for this, he responded with something like, “They have been trained at a high level.”
I’m not sure “high level” means what he thinks it means because it could also mean they didn’t get any detailed training and were just given a single briefing.
@ramsey They have been trained at a high level, as in “people who skipped training to get high”
Thomas Sturm@ramsey @jalefkowit A flyer was handed out with a picture of what an airport looks like.

Air travel in the US is already taking a massive hit by the boycott, how soon can MAGA/ICE/tRump kill the industry!?

The thing is it MIGHT HAVE sound funny in another timeline, but it is absolutely feasible now.
I really wish it wasn't, through.
LAURENIt will take only one incident where they accost a traveler of the friendly skies to shut that shit down. I do feel for whomever is going to be the test subject. I hope it isn't bad.
notanowl@jalefkowit nah that'll happen after the third or fourth time they're booed in the airport for removing people from the airport for booing them
