According to the report, which has not been independently verified by MSNBC, "nearly half of new recruits who've arrived for training at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center over the past three months were later sent home because they couldn't pass the written exam, according to the data."

Will ICE raids get worse? Trump says they 'haven't gone far enough'

... President Donald Trump signaled in a recent interview that he won't be backing down on immigration enforcement raids across the country, despite divided public opinion and intensifying legal pushback.
In an interivew with CBS' "60 Minutes" that aired Nov. 2, host Norah O'Donnell asked Trump whether Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents had gone too far in recent operations. She specifically addressed viral incidents in which agents tackled a mother, used tear gas in a Chicago neighborhood and smashed car windows.
Trump brushed off the criticisms and doubled down on his far-reaching immigration crackdown.
"I think they haven't gone far enough," Trump said. "Because we've been held back by the judges, by the liberal judges that were put in by Biden and by Obama." ...
I guess if some thought that the MAGA revolution would mean that people with absolutely no education would be fed good paying jobs, they were wrong.

No thinking aloud in the Fourth Reich.
