Joe Scarborough Jabs at Fat' and Untrained' ICE Agents as Hegseth Pushes Fitness: How Ironic!'
"How ironic that we see all of these fat out of shape people that they push through. Right? And in how long instead of five months, they have these shortened training sessions so they go out there and they're ill equipped to handle what professional law enforcement officers, the NYPD or the LAPD or any of our law enforcement agencies, are equipped to do. And suddenly tragedy is unfolding on the streets."
"The host ranted at the administration for breaking protocol in the rush to get agents on the streets to push President Donald Trump's deportation drive as having, in part, led to the shooting of Minneapolis woman Renee Nicole Good a tragedy he said we all predicted. Good was shot and killed on Wednesday after an altercation with ICE agents after she appeared to block a road with her vehicle and then drive forward when agents attempted to pull her from it."
ICE agents were characterized as grossly ill-equipped and overweight after training schedules were shortened from five months to abbreviated sessions, leaving agents unprepared for complex urban law-enforcement encounters. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth promoted military fitness while ICE recruitment focused on rapid deployment for a deportation initiative, and protocol was reportedly bypassed to push agents onto streets. The rushed deployment was linked to the fatal shooting of Minneapolis woman Renee Nicole Good following an altercation in which she appeared to block a road and then drove forward as agents attempted to pull her from her vehicle. Observers contrasted ICE’s border-focused training with urban police such as the NYPD.
