U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement are investigating two of their special agents for sharing and liking social media posts peddling conspiracy theories about Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar .
Derewonko added: “Here’s a question to all you Intelligence Spooks types… WHO THE HELL VETTED HER TO COME INTO THIS COUNTRY, and better yet, WHO THE HELL VETTED HER AS A CONGRESSIONAL CANDIDATE?” “Social media content posted by employees on their personal platforms should not be considered representative of agency policies or positions. We are reviewing whether any of this particular content violated other agency policies,” ICE spokesperson Richard Rocha said in a statement, according to Buzzfeed.
