The “task force” model was discontinued by the Obama administration in 2012 in part over accusations of racial profiling by local officers in Maricopa County, Arizona, and Alamance County, North Carolina. The Trump administration restarted the program in early 2025, with new funding and incentives for states, local police departments and sheriff’s offices.

ICE’s advertising for the program promised to give law enforcement agencies $7,500 for equipment per trained officer; $100,000 for new vehicles and overtime pay of up to 25% of an officer’s salary.

The analysis shows 39 states have policing agencies now participating, but didn’t give the total number of officers now working with ICE.

The states with the most participating agencies were Florida, with 342 agreements, Texas, with 296 agreements, Tennessee, with 63 agreements, Pennsylvania, with 58 agreements and Alabama with 52 agreements, according to the analysis by FWD.US, which advocates for immigration and criminal justice reforms.

State and local police agencies and sheriffs departments potentially stand to gain between $1.4 billion and $2 billion this year if they agree to participate because of the large infusion of cash from Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill, the organization predicted.

“This amount would dwarf all other federal funding for local law enforcement,” the FWD.US report found.

As the cooperation grows between federal and local law enforcement, support for Trump’s immigration agenda is declining after federal immigration agents shot and killed two Americans last month, according to the new NBC News Decision Desk Poll powered by SurveyMonkey.

Sixty percent of those surveyed in the week after the death of Alex Pretti in Minnesota somewhat or strongly disapproved of Trump’s actions on border security and immigration. Another 40% approved of Trump on the issue, including 27% who strongly approved and 13% who somewhat approved.

Most of the criticism over immigration enforcement tactics have been focused on federal officers, who have surged operations in Minneapolis, Los Angeles, New Orleans, Chicago and elsewhere. But as more and more local police are trained to make immigration arrests, that could change.

“I suspect we will start to hear more of those stories,” said Felicity Rose, vice president of criminal justice research and policy at FWD.US who analyzed the data. Last time the model was in place, she said, “there were a lot of effects on communities, including reduced attendance at schools, reduced health care access, all the things we see when ICE comes to town when people are afraid to leave their houses.”

“The fear is that the quotas and surveillance we have seen from ICE is spreading across the country in a wider way,” she said.

The Trump administration has championed the program. ICE said on its website that it “recognizes the importance of its relationships with law enforcement partners—including state, local, and tribal agencies—to carry out its critical mission.”

By delegating duties, the program makes it possible to better protect “the homeland through the arrest and removal" of immigrants "who undermine the safety of our nation’s communities and the integrity of U.S. immigration laws,” ICE said on its website.

ITS RIGHT THERE IN THE NAME

LMAO THE AGITATORS ARE FUCKED NOW

TIME TO SPEED UP

Once ICE is abolished, remember to terminate any federal funding any local police force gets for conspiring with them.
So many billions saved.

>>1489759
Now imagine if Walz and Frey did this from the beginning. Good and Pretti would still be alive. But no, it was more important to make a political ORANGE MAN BAD stance and call ICE the gestapo.

>>1489808
Literally would've made no difference. Police support or no police support ICE are thugs who love shooting people. Literally both recent occasions where they had a "justified" shooting that didn't kill anyone were both found to be complete bullshit and in one case the officers outright lied under oath. It's the only possible conclusion when you release people with literally a month and a half of training on the streets with all the same authority and weapons as cops.

>>1489818
>Literally would've made no difference.
Wrong on the Pretti case. If they were there providing crowd control, keeping dumbasses like Pretti away from ICE and out of the road, he would at worst been arrested and at best kept out of the way. Not to mention the local police are better trained at crowd control and de-escalation than ICE is.

>Police support or no police support ICE are thugs who love shooting people.
All the more reason why you need a layer, a local law enforcement line, to keep the protesters and ICE separate.

Glad to see the Blue is backing the Feds!

American Unity is a beautiful thing

>>1489819
>keeping dumbasses like Pretti away from ICE and out of the road, he would at worst been arrested and at best kept out of the way.
So you're literally arguing that ICE is so aggressively retarded and trigger happy they need local police to keep the protestors separated from them so they don't impulsively murder them?

Sounds like the solution is to get those fucking psychos out of there and any kind of law enforcement position.

>>1489825
If you really want to take that stance then I don't give a fuck, it doesn't change the fact that Pretti would still be alive. Possibly Good too but she kinda rushed things when she hit an agent (in before nuh uh) with her car before they could detain her and hand her off to police.

>Sounds like the solution is to get those fucking psychos out of there and any kind of law enforcement position.
So the sanctuary city can keep their illegals? No. You want ICE to stop kicking down your door and killing people like they're the ATF? Stop breaking the law. Isn't that what you always tell us?

>>1489832
>You want ICE to stop kicking down your door and killing people like they're the ATF? Stop breaking the law.
Protesting these retards isn't against the law. The only thing the police should be doing is arresting them for murder.

>>1489832
Pretty was carrying a sig p320, he was a ticking time bomb the police would have magdumped his ass too

>>1489832
>it doesn't change the fact that Pretti would still be alive
Saying that is outright admitting ICE is too unstable to do their jobs without killing people in a rage.

>>1489835
>Protesting these retards isn't against the law.
Except you people never keep it at protesting. It always escalates to a litany of crimes that are NOT protesting, such as:
>obstruction
>harassment
>assault
>shootings
>murder
>arson
>vandalism
>attempted vehicular manslaughter
>damage to government property
And much, much more.

Which is why having local police there to stop that from happening is necessary to save lives. But you clearly disagree, and don't have a solution beyond "Oh ICE shouldn't be there" - which isn't an option as long as you continue to harbor illegals. The local police aren't doing it thanks to politicians like Walz and Frey.

>>1489839
>Saying that is outright admitting ICE is too unstable to do their jobs
Their job is to detain illegals, not waste their time wrestling with dumbass leftists in the streets. Oh if only there was another law enforcement agency designed to do tha- oh wait, Walz told them not to.

>>1489840
>>1489842
You both misunderstood the article.

The police won't be joining the protests to form a barrier between the protesters and ICE

The police will be out making immigration arrests, doing the same thing that ICE is doing. That's what the article says.

>>1489842
>Their job is to detain illegals, not waste their time wrestling with dumbass leftists in the streets. Oh if only there was another law enforcement agency designed to do tha- oh wait, Walz told them not to.
Accurate

>>1489845
>The police will be out making immigration arrests, doing the same thing that ICE is doing. That's what the article says.
So what they should have been doing already before ICE showed up? Yeah I trust them to do a real thorough job.

>>1489852
That's not historically the purview of the local police actually. But it will be now that walz buckled under the pressure

>>1489832
You still only get one bullet for your firearm, Barney Fife. Us real cops get a full load

>>1489842
If you are any kind of law enforcement and you cannot deal with someone recording you to the point you execute them, you should not even be allowed to carry a gun as a civilian nevermind as LE.

>>1489840
Yeah none of the people ICE murdered were doing any of that and if ICE cannot deal with situations normal cops deal with every day without fucking executing civilians in the street, they shouldn't have anywhere near the same authority.

If this shit was so important, maybe give them more than a month and a half of training before you send them out with a gun.

>>1489854
>But it will be now that walz buckled under the pressure
>non-retarded cops will now be following the law and working through warrants
>fed nutjobs not executing people on the streets
It sounds like MN had a total victory here, and TACO Trump backed out

>>1489907
The cops will use the same warrants ICE uses, which are administrative warrants

>Cops don't execute people
LMAO
I love seeing the mental gymnastics from the Defund the Police crowd

>>1489905
>Yeah none of the people ICE murdered were doing any of that
Wrong. Good was
>obstructing
>harassing
>attempted vehicular manslaughter

Pretti was
>harassment
>assault
And a week before
>damage to government property

> and if ICE cannot deal with situations normal cops deal with every day without fucking executing civilians in the street, they shouldn't have anywhere near the same authority.
They're not specialized for it the same way the ATF is not specialized for riot control. Their job is to kick down doors, shoot dogs, and throw people in jail for bullshit gun charges like selling more than 10 antique firearms without an FFL. And when there's a protest gathered against them, like Waco and Ruby Ridge, the local police get called out to support them and hold the public back so they can't interfere.

Guess what didn't happen under Walz?

>>1489921
>It's all Walz fault we employed a bunch of poorly trained psychopaths who kill anyone who makes them mad
>He obviously should've been aware of this and made the local PD act as a buffer between protestors and our murderous thugs

>>1489915
Well you see, cops are actually held accountable when they kill someone in cold blood. Jonathan Ross, Raymundo Gutierrez, and Jesus Ochoa should all be in a cell next to Derek Chauvin.

>>1489937
>>He obviously should've been aware of this and made the local PD act as a buffer between protestors and our murderous thugs
The thing police does for every other federal agency, like the ATF, the FBI, DEA, etc.

>>1489942
Yeah, but those agencies didn't go into MN with the intention of murdering as many white people as they could, unlike ICE

All of this is still pageantry as long as ICE refuses to go after the wealthy republican donors hiring all the illegals. They're still transparently against actually deporting those workers.

>>1489940
Dude cops magdump people ALL the time and never get a day of jail time.

You sound so naive

Search "body cam" and "ends horribly/tragically" on YouTube if you're not trolling and seriously think cops don't execute people daily

They even have their own cute little slang for it

"Justifiable homocide"

>>1489944
>Yeah, but those agencies didn't go into MN with the intention of murdering as many white people as they could, unlike ICE
Oh boy... if this were true we'd have far more than two retards dead. Not to mention Pretti was assaulting and vandalizing a week before and didn't get shot by ICE that time. Y'know there has to be some kind of accountability for these activist retards. You can't just put the whole thing on ICE when they show up to get rid of Illegals and a bunch of fags like you want to fuck with them the whole time, from obstructing their operations to assaulting them.

Also implying the ATF and FBI didn't go in there with the intention to kill everyone at Waco, as they're undermining the FBI negotiations team that was actually getting people out without bloodshed. Tell me more how Lon Horiuchi didn't go to Ruby Ridge with the intent to murder as many people as he could.

>All of this is still pageantry as long as ICE refuses to go after the wealthy republican donors hiring all the illegals.
ICE has been going hard in several other states like Texas, with over 25% of their arrests, and hasn't had a problem. It's only in Minneapolis where these protesters are we've had issues.

Which again could have been resolved if Walz didn't tell local police to not cooperate with ICE.

>>1489940
>cops are actually held accountable when they kill someone in cold blood.
Nigga...

>>1489951
Petti had a sig p320, a gun which has been *successfully* sued for accidental discharges, a super rare lawsuit win

An agent disarmed Petti's sig p320 and turned to walk away with it.

As he did, he slipped on a patch of ice and the gun discharged.

The other agents thought Petti was shooting and mag dumped

>ICE didn't kill Petti, ice did

>>1489956
That doesn't address that anon's claim that ICE is going to MN just to kill white people. And while it's possible (and highly likely) the P320 did go off, I haven't seen any report confirming this yet.

>>1489957
That claim was schizo so I ignored it.

ya ur fucking retarded i hope you get iced

he actively told law enforcement not to act and to just sit there.
do you see how easy it is to disperse domestic terrorist, they used a sound cannon and they're instantly gone.

>>1489956
his fault for owning a defective firearm AND picking a fight with law enforcement then

>>1489967
You should do something about it!
March right up to the big mean ICE agents and tell them you aren't happy about the Israeli and the thrice married lesbian they killed. Tell them it's not worth deporting all the illegals if whites can't riot against law enforcement with impunity. I'm sure they'll listen to you after all you're "white"
Go exercise that privilege. Silence is violence

maybe you should just get iced

>>1489974
>there's video evidence of all of the above.
Yes, video evidence of ICE attacking citizens
lmao, all those cases got tossed out and MN and the lying was so bad cases are getting extra scrutiny because ICE couldn't be trusted

Feel free to cite one you think wasn't thrown out, and someone will point out that you're a liar

>>1489980
No one debates the veracity of the video of Pretti kicking an agent's SUV the week before he was killed.

He had a history of violently attacking government vehicles, while armed. He has his gun on him that day too, and he was tackled and sustained injuries that day. Again, no one debates this.

He got away with it at least once, but then he kept rolling the dICE.

here's a source you don't have to take my word for it.
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/video-alex-pretti-scuffle-federal-agents-minneapolis-11-days-before-his-death/

So uh... That's one for ya

>>1490052
you sure seem to enjoy being a cheerleader for evil violent pedophiles. just a reminder: there's no statute of limitation on murder

>>1490059
Good point!
There's no double jeopardy either, and he's already been exonerated by the President of the United States.

Keep me posted on his sentencing lmao

>>1490070
keep explaining the american justice system to us esl shill, it's an adorably retarded conceptualization

>>1490071
Ok! Double jeopardy means you can't be tried for the same crime twice. Since he's been determined to be innocent by Trump, who also conveniently holds the power of presidential pardon, it's unlikely that the ice agent who murdered that woman, or the other ice agents who killed pretti, are going to see even a single day in a cell. They are free to continue their good work, and the law can never touch them. How does that make you feel?

esl shill sure loves proving that he's not american or intelligent enough to get a job being anything other than a clown

>>1490052
So in your ESL shill opinion, anyone who kicks an SUV deserves to be magdumped without warning?

>>1490077
Yes, Dorothy. Anyone who attacks a law enforcement vehicle or officer can expect that there's a decent chance they get magdumped.

>>1490079

here's your attention esl shill

>>1490103
Wow the feminists murdered him? That's wild. France needs to get their shit together before we come over there and do it for them

>>1489956
Surely you have evidence any of this happened right? Like the sound of a gunshot and smoke before the ICE agents started unloading into him in any of the videos of the incident, or a spent casing that would be noted in reports.

Also find it funny people push this like it absolves ICE while even if it is true it proves just how incompetent they are that apparently their first thought at hearing a gunshot from outside the group they were standing in was that it was totally from the guy they were all looking at who had his hands on the ground who they had already seen be dismarmed and not from one of the numerous other people present on the scene. You are basically saying that if an actual shooter showed up and started firing at the ICE agents they would have obliviously kept beating up and mag dumping Pretti.

>>1490138
ICE agents are dumb enough to try to eat in Mexican restaurants after identifying themselves as ICE agents, and somehow don't expect their food to be made out of boogers and cum

>>1489956
Yeah that's not what happened. DHS's own report makes no mention of it.

Can sig p320's accidentally discharge? Yes.

Did his? No.

>>1490118
It's actually even stupider. This guy gets beaten up, literally refuses to go to the hospital, then dies from the injuries he was too fucking retarded to have looked at.
