  2. You previously had to be 21 to join ICE and given they are offering $60K in “student loan repayment,” I doubt they are courting the elderly.

    Not quite. The lower age limit is still 18. Technically, you're correct. Teenagers can join. They can also join the military. Noem removed the UPPER age limit. So now Trump, Chuck Grassley, Bernie Sanders, Mitch McConnell, and Bob Dylan are all eligible to join ICE, don hoods, and kidnap people.
