I don't have TV currently but I stream shows, catch parts of meyers, colbert etc on YT. A friend just posted they...

saw an ICE recruitment commercial. A slick production, and a $50,000 signing bonus mentioned.

They mentioned it partly bc of the mondanity of it. And, yeah, oh - here's an ICE commercial. Wtf?! Nestled between a show, and other more typical commercials.
Quiet "yikes!".

Received in the email from V.A.



For what it's worth, the picture in the email was just as out of focus as this screenshot.

Maybe there are double-secret provisos on the whiteboard.
