U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement has been ramping up efforts to find new recruits, like offering student loan forgiveness, $50,000 signing bonuses, lowering qualifications, and recruitment videos from known MAGA-lebrities like this actor who was once well-known for playing Superman.
On Aug. 6, he told Jesse Watters on Fox, “I put out a recruitment video yesterday. I’m actually a sworn deputy sheriff and a reserve police officer. I wasn’t part of ICE, but once I put that out there and you put a little blurb on your show, it went crazy. So now I’ve spoken with some of the officials over at ICE, and I will be sworn in as an ICE agent ASAP. So they’ll have 88,001 recruits for their 10,000 positions.”
In an Aug. 8 Instagram video, actor and activist John Leguizamo slammed Dean, saying, “What kind of loser volunteers to be an ICE officer? What a moron. Dean Cain, your pronouns are has/been.”
In response to John’s video calling Dean a “has been” Frank Grillo, who plays Rick Flag Sr. in the latest Superman movie, responded that he “never was.”
Tatum O’Neal, the youngest person to ever win an Academy Award in 1974, responded with six clapping emojis.
Director Lee Daniels simply laughed at John’s statement.
Comedian Margaret Cho blasted Dean for joining ICE in an Instagram video. “Why would you join ICE and encourage people to join ICE when your ancestors were interned in World War II?” she asked. “You’re Japanese. You’re not even white… I know you, and you are not white. You have never been white. And no matter how many of these white activities that you participate in, it’s never going to make that happen… No matter how racist you are, no matter how wrong you act… Always wrong, never white.”
