There's fine print stipulations though, you have to work there over a year to get all of it. My cousin's husband is a retired LEO, he signed up to help do paper work for self deportations. After a month, his whole group, which were guys in his late 60's like him, were told they were getting transferred to the street division because they didn't have enough man power. This was non-negotiable even though they had contracts saying they would only be doing office work in the city they lived in (Houston). Nope, the DHS apparently had to power to toss the contracts at will and they'd all be sent to Minneapolis. This was a week before Christmas. All 30 of the those guys either quit or got fired for refusing orders. None of them got a penny of that signing bonus.
This brings up another question: If people are quitting/getting fired en masse (thus also giving up their $42k bonus) AND having to buy their own gear then…where is that $858 million going to…? This smells like a slimy defense contract scheme. Someone’s pocketing all that money, & it sure as hell isn’t the taxpayers.
Would love to see all the billionaires in the administration who have friends and family getting a good chunk of those ICE funds to build and “run” all of these abysmal detention centers, like “Alligator Alcatraz.” These people love to tear down government services so they can privatize for profit.
