NBC NEWS
— Some new ICE recruits have shown up to training without full vetting. DD: In my defense, my Democrat Post Office, IRS, and GAO superiors fully vetted me. But they hired me only because they could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, younger person, and/or veteran who would take the job. I qualified myself for my Post Office job by passing the postal employment examination and earning a high school diploma. I qualified myself for my IRS job by passing the Federal Service Entrance Examination and earning a bachelor’s degree in business. I qualified myself for my GAO job by earning an MBA and passing the CPA examination on my first attempt.
https://www.aol.com/articles/ice-recruits-showed-training-without-200053967.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: ICE officials only later discovered that some of the recruits failed drug testing, have disqualifying criminal backgrounds or don’t meet the physical or academic requirements to serve, the sources said. Staff members at ICE’s training academy in Brunswick, Georgia, recently discovered one recruit had previously been charged with strong-arm robbery and battery stemming from a domestic violence incident, the current DHS official said. They’ve also found as recently as this month that some recruits going through the six-week training course hadn’t submitted fingerprints for background checks, as ICE’s hiring process requires, the current and former DHS officials said. Per ICE policy, applicants are required to pass drug tests and undergo security vetting through ICE’s human resources office before they show up for the training course. The former officials said the process was more strictly adhered to before a hiring surge that began this summer. The process was meant to weed out disqualified candidates before they would be sent to training. Since the surge began, ICE has dismissed more than 200 new recruits while they were in training for falling short of its hiring requirements, according to recently collected internal ICE data reviewed by NBC News. The majority of them failed to meet ICE’s physical or academic standards, according to the data. Just under 10 recruits were dismissed for criminal charges, failing to pass drug tests or safety concerns that should have been flagged in background checks before they arrived at training, the data indicated and the current and former DHS officials confirmed. The officials said there is growing concern that in the Trump administration’s race to expand the number of ICE agents to 10,000 by the end of the year, the agency could miss red flags in the backgrounds of some new recruits and inadvertently hire them. “There is absolutely concern that some people are slipping through the cracks,” the current DHS official said. The official said many of the issues that have been flagged during training surface only because the recruits admitted they didn’t submit to fingerprinting or drug testing before they arrived. “What about the ones who don’t admit it?” the official said. The Department of Homeland Security told NBC News in a statement that most of its new recruits are former law enforcement officers and former ICE officers who go through a different process. . .The Atlantic reported this week on the struggle some ICE recruits have had with meeting the agency’s physical fitness requirements. The broader scope of issues and specific data haven’t been previously reported. ICE has been under pressure from the White House to increase hiring with the funding Congress designated in the sweeping tax and spending bill that Trump signed into law on July 4. It has frequently lagged behind the White House’s arrest goal of 3,000 per day, which it has attributed to a lack of staffing. As part of the effort, ICE shortened the training at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center in Georgia from 13 weeks to eight. The training was later shortened to six weeks, the DHS official said. Recruits also are supposed to attest that they can pass ICE’s physical fitness test, which includes setups, pullups and running 1½ miles in under 14 minutes, 25 seconds. Darius Reeves, who recently left his position as ICE field office director in Baltimore, said he believes the agency’s Aug. 6 decision to waive age limits so older people can join has led to more recruits’ failing the physical test. “These new recruits are dropping like flies,” Reeves said in an interview after having spoken with colleagues seeking to bring new hires into the agency. “And rightly so; it makes sense. We’re going to drop the age requirements, of course this was going to happen.” Nearly half of new recruits who’ve arrived for training at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center over the past three months were later sent home because they couldn’t pass the written exam, according to the data. The academic requirement includes an exam in which officers are allowed to consult their textbooks and notes at the end of a legal course on the Immigration and Nationality Act and the Fourth Amendment, which outlines when officers can and can’t conduct searches and seizures. A slightly smaller group were dismissed because they failed the physical fitness test or had medical challenges; some of those sent home had made it clear on their applications that they couldn’t meet ICE’s physical requirements but were sent to training anyway, the current and former DHS officials said. Fewer than 10 of the new recruits were dismissed because ICE training leaders learned from them during the training program that they had pending criminal charges or failed their drug tests or were otherwise considered safety concerns, the officials said. The three sources said ICE’s human resources office is overwhelmed with more than 150,000 new applicants who have applied since ICE began offering $50,000 signing bonuses in August. The HR office is rushing to clear new recruits, which they believe is leading to mistakes. “They are trying to push everyone through, and the vetting process is not what it should be,” said one of the former DHS officials with knowledge of the agency’s hiring. The current DHS official likened the pressure on ICE’s human resources employees to clear recruits to “asking them to pull a rabbit out of a hat.”)

— Is Mamdani Muslim, American or Gujarati?
https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/nri/latest-updates/is-zohran-mamdani-muslim-american-or-gujarati/articleshow/125170685.cms
(FROM THE ARTICLE: With the victory of Zohran Mamdani as mayor of New York City, a man with a Muslim name, an African past and an Indian lineage, the American-Christian establishment suddenly feels threatened. Not because of what Mamdani will do, but because of what his name suggests he should be. His name is Persian for ‘bloom’, his surname is how the medieval Gujarati trade would articulate ‘Muhammadan’. In today’s America, “Christian” has quietly become a code word for “white”.  And white Christianity fears color, migration and complexity-the very things that built America. For them “Muslim” is the great enemy who took Jerusalem away from Christians and Jews. Mamdani’s victory is thus not a municipal event; it is a mythic disruption. What bothers people even more is that Mamdani refuses to fit into neat boxes. He campaigns with gay, lesbian and trans groups. His partner doesn’t wear a hijab. He is comfortable in queer spaces and openly progressive. So, what kind of Muslim is he? A devout one? A cultural one? Or an unbeliever with Muslim heritage? Even his co-religionists are confused. Many left-wing Muslim sympathizers claim to be progressive but remain proudly homophobic “because Allah demanded so”. Yet Mamdani’s life mocks that contradiction. He acts as if faith and freedom can coexist-a thought too heretical for both Islamists and Christian fundamentalists. When asked what he would do after his victory, his rivals said they would visit Israel to thank God. Mamdani said he would stay in New York and do his job. That one sentence separated performative faith from professional integrity. To better understand Mamdani, we must go beyond theology and look at caste and commerce. His surname reveals his roots: Gujarat. Specifically, the Khoja world-mercantile Muslim communities that trace descent from the Prophet through the Shia line but function socially like Hindu caste trade guilds. These groups originated when sea trade was booming around 1000 AD with Fatimid Egypt, and around 1600 AD with Safavid Persia, both Shia empires. These unique trade groups, with a religious head binding them together, make sense if we appreciate how caste groups of Bharat responded to Islam after its rise and spread, 1,400 years ago. This is when Mecca became a major hub of trade connecting the sea from Arabia to Java. India stood in the middle. The monsoon winds favored this trade. Hindus and Jains avoided travelling by sea, for fear of loss of caste. But a few Gujarati trading guilds realized that they could remain community loyal even if they converted provided they were guided by a guru-like figure with connections to the prophet. Thus rose the Khojas and the Bohras. Theoretically, Islam believes all humans are equal. But like all religions there are divisions and boundaries, controlled by who marries whom. Simplistically put, the first split happened shortly after the death of the founder-prophet who did not leave behind a will or sons. So Islam split into the Arab (Sunni) and Persian (Shia) schools-the former claiming consensus should determine leadership of the Islamic world, the latter preferring bloodline, through the prophet’s grandsons born to his daughter. The Shia group is split further. The Twelvers who believe the twelfth Imam remains hidden and will reveal himself at the end of time. The Bohras and Khojas however insist their respective leaders are Imams with a continuous bloodline. But the American media doesn’t care for these details. To them, every Muslim is an “Islamist”. The subtleties of sect, history, or geography vanish. Mamdani thus becomes a cartoon villain: a bearded Muslim who somehow survived liberal America’s tolerance tests. The Khojas and Bohras evolved from old gana-sangha traditions-republican merchant orders from Buddha’s time. They had their own systems of law, credit and charity, independent of kings and clerics. Mobility was their weapon. When trade dried up, they simply migrated: from Gujarat to Zanzibar, from Africa to London, and now to New York. They owed allegiance not to a nation but to a network. Mamdani inherits that legacy of cosmopolitan capitalism-pragmatic, mobile and skeptical of rigid authority. Incidentally, Muhammad Ali Jinnah, the founder of Pakistan, came from the same Khoja lineage (both publicly claimed to be Twelver though). Jinnah’s ancestors were Gujarati Hindus, probably from the Lohana caste, who turned to Islam when they were expelled from their guilds for trading in forbid den goods like fish. Even at his death, nobody knew whether Jinnah was Sunni or Shia. Both sects claimed him, each performing its own funeral rites. That ambiguity, born of Gujarati mercantile pragmatism, defines the global Muslim elite-from Karachi to Kampala to Queens.)
