Indigenous Actress:ICE Calls Her Tribal ID “Fake”

Elaine Miles was walking to a bus stop in Redmond to go to Target, she said, when four men wearing masks and vests with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement label stepped out of two black SUVs with no front plates and pressed her for her ID. Miles, an Indigenous actor best known for her roles in "Northern Exposure," "Smoke Signals," "Wyvern" and "The Last of Us," handed them her tribal ID from the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation in Oregon. Federal government agencies recognize tribal ID as a valid form of identification, and Miles has used it to travel back and forth to Canada and Mexico without any issues. Yet, Miles recalled one agent calling it "fake." "Anyone can make that," she recalled another agent saying.

Yeah, and anyone can also make "four men wearing masks and vests with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement label stepped out of two black SUVs with no front plates."

Why are ICE agents so afraid of properly identifying themselves?
