Overview

  • Dean Cain, a sworn deputy sheriff and reserve officer, is set to be sworn in as an ICE agent imminently after consulting with agency officials following his Fox News appearance.
  • Cain released a 92-second recruitment video calling on Americans to join ICE, citing benefits such as a $50,000 signing bonus, student loan repayment, enhanced retirement perks, with special pay for field operators.
  • DHS’s latest recruitment drive removed age caps alongside offering up to $50,000 signing bonuses, student loan forgiveness plus other incentives to fill 10,000 agent slots funded by Congress.
  • The campaign has generated over 80,000 applications since July, as ICE intensifies daily arrest targets under President Trump’s deportation agenda.
  • Cain framed his decision as a patriotic duty to “save America” by removing dangerous criminals from U.S. streets in a convergence of celebrity activism with hardline immigration enforcement.
