The White House has soft-launched renaming ICE to NICE — in an attempt to whitewash the government-backed thugs’ crimes.

Trump is awake and he’s now demanding that ICE be renamed to NICE so the media has to say “NICE agents” everyday. This is what the president is focused on. Very weird stuff. pic.twitter.com/5zOuYTMCaA

Trump reposted the suggestion, which was made by a MAGA ‘journalist’.

NICE supposedly stands for ‘National Immigration and Customs Enforcement.’ However, social media users have far more interesting suggestions.

Already this year, at least 15 people have died while in ICE custody.

Additionally, ICE agents murdered two people during anti-ICE protests in Minnesota.

A rebrand won’t distract us from the truth: this reprehensible agency murdered two Minnesotans in broad daylight.

Abolish ICE. https://t.co/4FwXNek8gF

Changing it to “NICE Agents” will totally make Minneapolis residents forget about how ICE agents murdered two of our neighbors, great rebranding https://t.co/hWXe9SrW3v

Of course, no amount of name changes, rebrands or nazi-style propaganda can hide the crimes that ICE has committed.

Similarly, no amount of government backing can make those crimes disappear.

Nice? Seriously?

It’s hard to know when Trump is being serious and when he’s not.

However, Mr Fake Tan has already attempted to rebrand the Gulf of Mexico as the Gulf of America and the Department of Defence as the Department of War.

Don’t tell Trump that not a single other country uses either of those phrases. He might threaten to blow something up.

On a serious note, I don’t know a single person who calls Twitter X. So what makes him or his government think anyone will actually care if they change the name?

we still call it twitter do you really think we give a fuck if you change the name https://t.co/nEWYf3tEzM

On Thursday, 23 April, Senate Republicans approved a budget resolution to fund ICE and Customs and Border Protection (CBP). The bill passed with a 50-48 vote.

The bill will allow the government to allocate up to $140bn to ICE and CBP.

However, the bill still has to be adopted by the House of Representatives. Only then can officials begin drafting legislation to hand the funding to the two agencies.

Inherently racist

ICE is inherently racist, which makes the soft-launch of ‘NICE’ even more fucked up.

The Supreme Court ruled that ICE may detain people without clear evidence. This means people can be detained based on the language they speak, their place of work, or even their physical appearance.

This means ICE can resume “roving” patrols in places such as Los Angeles without needing concrete evidence to target specific workplaces or areas.

ICE is targeting people who speak Spanish and those with accents, low-wage workers such as those in construction at car washes, even if they have not committed any crimes.

Importantly, this is in direct contravention of the Fourth Amendment, which guarantees:

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

This means the government must have probable cause that a person has committed a crime to arrest them. Plus, unlawful presence in the US isn’t actually illegal; it’s merely a civil offence.

Trump can rename ICE — but it won’t take away the fact that the institution under Trump is racist, violent, and in direct violation of the US Constitution.
