ICE = Irish Criminals Ejected
Byeeee
There’s nothing more Irish than guilt and shame and self-loathing, which may be why Irish-Americans are the only hyphenates in the whole country who can still take a joke about ourselves. Oh, so I’m a natural-born drunk with below-average genitals? Tell me something I don’t know!
We Irish really are the second-worst people in the world.1 So I have absolutely no sympathy for any shiftless Paddy bastard who overstays his visa and gets detained by ICE.
Karlin Lillington, Irish Times:
‘Absolute hell’: Irishman with valid US work permit held by Ice since September
An Irishman living in the United States for more than 20 years has been held by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (Ice) officials since being arrested last September.
Originally from Glenmore, Co Kilkenny, Seamus Culleton is married to a US citizen and owns a plastering business in the Boston area. He was arrested on September 9th, 2025, and has been in an Ice detention facility in Texas for nearly five months, despite having no criminal record, “not even a parking ticket”. In a phone interview from the facility, he said conditions there are “like a concentration camp, absolute hell”.
Sounds like a crybaby. And it doesn’t matter if he has a criminal record, because illegal immigration is illegal.
That’s why leftists avoid the word “illegal” at all costs. “People aren’t illegal!” Well, breaking the law is.
Hey, why is ICE detaining a white guy, anyway? I thought the whole operation was about getting rid of brown people? Again and again, leftist rhetoric shatters on impact with reality.
As for why this scofflaw is being detained, Rory Carroll at The Guardian explains:
Culleton entered the US in 2009 on a visa waiver programme and overstayed the 90-day limit but after marrying a US citizen, Tiffany Smyth, and applying for lawful permanent residence, he obtained a statutory exemption that allowed him to work, according to his lawyer, Ogor Winnie Okoye.
Oh, so he only overstayed his tourist visa by a mere 16 years? We should definitely listen to his sob story.
Look, man, rules are rules. You abused our hospitality, and finally something is being done about it. You had an exemption, and now it’s over. You’re no longer exempt.
And no, you don’t get a mint on your pillow as we figure out what to do with you. Sorry you’re not enjoying the consequences of your actions, you dumb mick.
Just imagine all the trouble America could’ve saved by keeping out Joe Biden’s Irish ancestors. Live and learn.
In other ICE news…
Becky Ringstrom was heading home after following federal immigration officers in her gray Kia SUV in suburban Minneapolis when she was suddenly boxed in by unmarked vehicles. At least a half-dozen masked agents jumped out to arrest her, one knocking on her windshield with a metal object as if threatening to use it to break her window.
After the arrest, captured on bystander video verified by Reuters, the 42-year-old mother of seven later said she was transported to Bishop Henry Whipple Federal Building in downtown Minneapolis where an officer gave her a citation charging her under a federal law that criminalizes impeding law enforcement.
BREAKING: Inevitable Consequence Occurs
What did she think was gonna happen? Especially after the past month. Two people have already committed suicide by cop in Minneapolis, yet these idiots are still following federal agents around like it’s some kind of game.
They don’t even believe their own rhetoric. If ICE is a bunch of Nazis, why stalk them? Shouldn’t you try to avoid Nazis?
So now this dumb Karen gets to play victim, which in the twisted leftist worldview makes her a hero. She should be thanking those agents for taking her off the street before she gets herself hurt or killed. But I’m sure she’ll be right back at it, instead of taking care of her own children.
If you don’t like the laws that are being enforced, vote for lawmakers who will change those laws. Or just keep lying about what’s happening, and get even more stupid people killed for nothing.
Yesterday I told you about my new favorite band, Angine de Poitrine. Here they are, performing on top of an office building in Montreal last year.
I really hope they’re the vanguard of a planetary invasion force. They’re the only illegal aliens I actually like!
If you appreciate what I have to say and/or the way I say it, please pay me so I can keep doing this. If I have to get a real job, it will be your fault.
#1 is the Italians, of course. You can get mad about it, or you can try to improve yourselves.
I used to hang out in a few Boston area Irish pubs pretty regularly and the Irish staffers at those places were constantly being deported for overstaying their visas. It was a regular thing. And it even happened on Obama's watch. Gasp!
I have a lot of Polish friends who joke about their Polishness, and take Polish jokes in stride. And a very good friend who passed recently was of Norwegian descent and loved to make jokes about Swedes. Of course, he was about 6'7" and 300 pounds of muscle and looked like Paul Bunyan when Bunyan was a kid, so he got away with it. Actually, he was a genial and kind soul that everyone liked, but few knew about his 2 years in-country with the 1st Air Battalion during the worst fighting in Vietnam.
Anyway, some of the actually toughest and bravest folk are quiet and unassuming. Too many of the anti-ICE bunch are cosplaying for the thrill of breaking the law, and getting away with it. And the AWFULs are the worst. They flaunt the privilege they claim they don't deserve by being A-holes, loudly, in public.
My family is largely Scots-Irish. Descendants of Orange men who married Irish women and split for the colonies. We make fun of both sides.
I love the fake image. It looks real to me.
