A friend suggests "ICE" has a negative connotation. He suggests DHS change ICE to National Immigation and Customs Enforcement, NICE.

Can you imagine the progressive screams and the media talking heads choking on trying to say it?

Let's talk this up and get the Administration working on it.

Then we would have to change department of war to department of conflict resolution.

I think a good name for ICE would be FAFO.

fantastic idea ... and President Trump just LOVES to change the names of things: National Immigration and Customs Enforcement [NICE]...

and “NICE” would drive the paid leftist fascist astroturfers even MORE insane ...

I felt “ICE” was a mistake before this recent furor and just plain negative, now it is ridiculously negative, irretrievably negative, it should be rebranded with a carefully thought out name that is difficult to impossible for the media to work with.

ICE used to be the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS), but they changed THAT name after the furor over Bill Clinton's INS agents seizing Elian Gonzalez on April 22, 2000 and sending him back to Cuba.

NICE is the acronym for the National Institute for Coordinated Experiments, a thoroughly satanic "scientific" organization that lies at the heart of an evil plot in C.S. Lewis' novel That Hideous Strength. So I think I'd pass on this suggestion.

NICE has been suggested here weeks if not months ago.
The left manage to make anything bad anyway, including names (liberal, progressist, environmentalist...), including NICE.
So changing a perfectly good name is pointless, it would only signal we lost the word war.
