ICE agents are going to Italy. They will be providing security assistance for the games.

“This is a militia that kills… of course they’re not welcome in Milan,” Milan Mayor Beppe Sala told Italian radio on Tuesday. Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani, in a bid to cool tensions, told reporters “it’s not like the [Nazi] SS are coming”. BBC

Tajani is wrong. Dan Bongini and his miscreant force of reckless show boaters are not who the Olympics need for security. Let’s hope no one starts speaking Spanish around them; they’re liable to lose it, dogpile someone and maybe shoot them while they’re on the ground.

The BBC post states that nations send teams to help with security during the Olympics. This is true. During the Olympics many terrorist attacks will not happen because of these professional teams – and you will never hear about it. ICE agents are not professional and are incapable of discretion.

Whatever happens with ICE at the Olympics will be loud and pre arranged.

Congress should not pass the budget bill until restrictions are imposed on ICE. It’s funding should be slashed to a level where they can no longer employ the gun happy yahoos they have recruited under the Donald Trump regime
