Just when you think this administration can't go lower yesterday ICE arrested Disney cruise employees

In San Diego !

The Disney Magic finished a five-day cruise on April 23 and pulled into the B Street Cruise Terminal in San Diego. Passengers gathered their bags, said goodbye to the crew, and started heading home. Then federal immigration agents moved in.

Ten crew members from Disney Cruise Line were arrested that day by ICE officers as the ship was being unloaded. Passengers watched it happen in real time.

When I first read this I thought it was fake but it was reported on multiple news sites plus the evening news in San Diego!

leaving in 2 days for another trip, how the fuck can ICE determine who's getting off the ship OR NOT, let alone PLANNING ON STAYING?

All jose the cook has to say is ' this is my last trip, I'll be in a hotel till Tuesday AND THEN ILL FLY HOME to...wherever.

Theyre doing this to harass Disney over Kimmel, and it's GOING to blow up in their face.
The first 'unwritten' rule of Hollywood is you don't fuck with The Mouse, because The Mouse WILL FUCK YOU BACK.

Staffers on a Disney cruise ship docked in San Diego were among 28 people arrested by U.S. Customs and Border Protection as part of a child sexual exploitation material (CSEM) operation.

According to the federal agency, between April 23 and April 27 CBP boarded eight cruise ships as part of the investigation. (The agency did not specify that one was a Disney cruise — The California Post broke that news.) Law enforcement interviewed 26 suspected crew members from the Philippines, one suspected crew member from Portugal and one from Indonesia.

“Officers confirmed that 27 of the 28 subjects were involved in either the receipt, possession, transportation, distribution, or viewing of CSEM or child pornography,” a spokesperson for CBP said in a statement to Variety. “CBP cancelled their visas and these criminals have been returned to their country of citizenship.”
