"Bulls**t! Colbert said in reaction to the clip. Masked agents shooting innocent people with impunity in the streets are not victims. The only way they could ever even be considered close to victims is that they are, at best, weak-minded individuals full of anger who have been led to the darkness by Donald Trump and are now participating in an evil system that will stick to them like hot black tar for the rest of their lives."
"Colbert recommended immigration agents stick to eating meals at home the rest of their lives because no meal will ever go unspit upon due to their work. The comedian took his criticism even further by pushing back on Bovino taking issue with critics comparing ICE and Border Patrol agents to the Gestapo. The comparison, Colbert argued, is not fair since Nazis showed their faces while immigration officers cover their faces to protect their identities."
A late-night host targeted Border Patrol commander Greg Bovino for calling immigration agents victims after federal agents shot and killed two Minneapolis citizens amid protests and disputed self-defense claims. The host rejected the victim label, calling masked agents who shoot innocent people with impunity not victims and describing them as weak-minded, angry individuals led into an evil system by Donald Trump. The host advised immigration agents to avoid public meals because their work would provoke contempt. He also argued that comparing ICE and Border Patrol to Nazis is unfair because Nazis showed their faces while many immigration officers conceal theirs.
