I wonder why I am not finding this story at most of the major media outlets?
Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents believe overwhelmingly that their department leadership has become so politicized as to compromise the effectiveness of ICE and the safety of American people. Their union has released a letter announcing its recent unanimous “vote of no confidence†in ICE agency heads, accusing them of “misleading the American public†regarding illegal immigration in order to further a pro-amnesty agenda.
In June, the National Immigration and Customs Enforcement Council — an AFL-CIO affiliate — and affiliated local councils cast a unanimous 259-0 vote of no confidence in ICE Director John Morton and Assistant Director Phyllis Coven. In a letter announcing the vote, the National Council criticized the directors for “misguided and reckless initiatives,†and said their leaders have “abandoned the Agency’s core mission of enforcing United States immigration laws and providing for public safety, and have instead directed their attention to campaigning for policies and programs related to amnesty.â€
Kinda like how 54% of Americans believe that the federal government should take legal action against sanctuary cities, and 74% of Mainstream voters want all federal funds to those cities cut off.

Interestingly, ICE Director John Morton told the Washington Post, in regard to this letter and other interest groups that call for his resignation (apparently this is quite common for him), that such letters are just, “part of the territory here.” Mr. Morton, may I suggest that a significant problem with dismissing a No Confidence Vote from your entire employee population is, when you run an agency of 7,000 special agents, you can’t do your job unless they do theirs? Oh wait, that is the whole point, is it not?
wasn’t he a former Bush appointee from VA ?
Damn those public service unions !!
John please drop dead
