It was in a crate at the back of the closet under a crate of clothes that don't fit, along with my winter hat.
I look forward to forgetting where they are in the near future.

A few months ago, ICE hired me
I didn't sign and submit any paperwork. I almost certainly failed the drug test. I'm real outspoken about my opposition to the Trump administration, and I am extremely googlable
And yet, there it was, in plain English. "Welcome to ICE!"
