ICE leadership receives "no confidence" vote.

The union that represents rank-and-file field agents at U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement has unanimously passed a "vote of no confidence" for the agency's leadership, saying ICE has "abandoned" its core mission of protecting the public to support a political agenda favoring amnesty.
The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants."

Everyone knows my position regarding unions and their usefulness (or lack thereof).

In this instance, however, they are SPOT ON. :thumb: :thumb: :thumb:

Public sector unions that represent public safety workers are very, very different from typical private sector labor unions.

One big difference is that those unions do not have the right to strike.

There are other major differences.

However, I do know that many police unions protect crappy cops, but generally speaking law enforcement unions are fairly weak.
