"I've spoken with some officials over at ICE, and I will be sworn in as an ICE agent, ASAP," the actor says.
Dean Cain says he’s going to be “sworn in as an ICE agent, ASAP.”
The actor, who starred as Clark Kent/Superman in the 1990s TV series Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman, revealed Wednesday on Fox News’ Jesse Watters Primetime that he’s signed up for Immigration and Customs Enforcement to help carry out President Donald Trump‘s mass deportation agenda.
“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,” he told host Jesse Watters. “So now I’ve spoken with some officials over at ICE, and I will be sworn in as an ICE agent, ASAP.”
On Tuesday, Cain posted a video on his Instagram, encouraging people to join the federal agency, which ramped up hiring after Congress passed a spending bill earlier this summer that gives ICE money to hire 10,000 more staff.
“I’m stepping up,” the actor added. “Hopefully, a whole bunch of other former officers, former ICE agents, will step up and we’ll meet those recruitment goals immediately, and we’ll help protect this country.”
When Watters asked what inspired him to serve his country, Cain responded, “This country was built on patriots stepping up, whether it was popular or not, and doing the right thing. I truly believe this is the right thing.”
He continued, “We have a broken immigration system. Congress needs to fix it, but in the interim, President Trump ran on this. He is delivering on this. This is what people voted for. It’s what I voted for, and he’s going to see it through, and I’ll do my part and help make sure it happens.”
Amid ICE’s hiring expansion, Trump has continued to be criticized for his increased immigration raids since returning to the White House, sparking protests across the country against what critics call unlawful ICE raids. This has also led to legal disputes, including with California Gov. Gavin Newsom, over how much control the president has, such as when Trump deployed National Guard troops to Los Angeles earlier this summer over protests.
awesome
👍👍
I think he is past the age limit by about 20 years so we’ll see.
It says he is 59. If fellow officers are going to rely on him, he better be able to do the job.
They’re taking anybody of any age now that can do the job
Don’t underestimate old men body strength
Look how that one old cop took down the protester at the Turning Point function
He is best doctors rich and an action actor, he is probably well maintained, and in decent condition and health for his age.
**It says he is 59. If fellow officers are going to rely on him, he better be able to do the job.**
That’s not what he’s there for. Sure he’ll get in on some photo-op arrests but you know it’s the publicity. Don’t forget the left’s opinion on this. More winning.
Really cool.
AND, $50,000 signing bonus and forgiveness of student loans!
Might be wanting to get in on the action a la Dan Bongino. Too old to play Superman and he has more money than Eddie Haskell when he went into law enforcement.
Sort of similar to what Ronald Reagan did in WWII when he was in the army.
Ken Osmond was shot by three bullets, but two were stopped by his vest, and one went off his belt buckle.
They might assign him to an administrative job. Maybe even PR.

Reagan first spent about five years in the horse cavalry as a reservist, then went on active duty in transportation, and then the 1st Motion Picture Unit at the request of the Army Air Forces.
“While on active duty with the 1st Motion Picture Unit and the 18th Army Air Forces Base Unit, Captain Reagan served as Personnel Officer, Post Adjutant, and Executive Officer. By the end of the war, his units had produced some 400 training films for the Army Air Forces.”
I welcome this. It drives a nail in the crowds trying to demonize ICE. This turns it more like the enthusiasm for military recruiting.
Only scary part of all this is flip this to another administration and it could look a lot like the beginnings of a gestopo. Yah they are doing what we like now, but what’s to protect that 10-20 years from now?
make a great movie
lets call it
AMF!
Faster than a speeding MS-13 bullet.
