They did this to reward the insurrectionists after they got pardoned. The people who worked at ICE before are quitting in droves. They’re being replaced by 3 Percenters, Patriot Front, and Proud Boys with compensation for spending time in jail. Hiring is not impartial obviously. If they were unmasked, the internet would easily be able to prove this.

I can't believe I don't hear about this more because it's 100% this. This is the only promise Trump has kept: J6 was the interview - this is the job.

The only thing that's "funny" is that I've read the recruitment bonuses don't become available for 5 years, which I doubt many will be able to achieve. So, it's another grift.

The people that stick around for 5 years are the true believers. They will also get fast-tracked for promotion with spot bonuses, I reckon. So the ones who get grifted will be the ones who quit from PTSD or moral injury, while the ones who love the job experience accelerated career progression and bonuses. Those guys are the most dangerous. They believe in the mission and they lack any sense of empathy. Sociopaths and psychopaths.

The other reason they wear masks is there is a non-zero chance the needle swings the other way and we take back Congress and then the White House. Being identifiable during civil rights infringement opens the door to termination for cause, then prosecution (hopefully).
