Drug smugglers and human traffickers “have a very effective intelligence gathering system” that is “much more effective than what we have in the U.S. government,” former U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent A.J.

Yeah, they don’t have affirmative action, they don’t waste their time with sexual harassment seminars, they don’t worry about their pay grade and what kind of raise they are limited to. I’ll bet they don’t even fill out Intelligence Reporting Forms.

The U.S. government has stopped doing the job of government so it could assume the roles of savior, psychiatrist and dominatrix.
