ICE 吹哨人/前律师 Ryan Schwank 在国会发言

“…First day in my position I was told to teach cadets to violate the constitution, by entering homes with out judicial warrants. Training cuts consisted of cutting 240 hours of vital classes from a 584 hour program. Classes that teach the constitution, legal system, fire arms training, use of force, lawful arrests, proper detention, and the limits of proper authority. For example, they seized all the legal instruction regarding the use of force. This means cadets are not taught what it means to be objectively reasonable. The very standards which the law requires them to meet when deciding whether or not to use deadly force. Our jobs as instructors are to teach them so well that they can make split second decisions about what they can or cannot do in life and death situation. Yet in the name of churning out an endless stream of officers, DHS leadership has dismantled the academic and practical tests that we need to know that cadets can safely and lawfully perform their jobs. All to satisfy an administration demand that they train thousands of new officers before the end of the year. DHS told the public that new cadets receive all the training they need to perform their duties, that no critical material or standards have been cut. This is a lie. ICE made the program shorter, and removed so many essential parts that what remains is a dangerous husk. No reasonable person would believe a training program suddenly cut, nearly in half; could meet the minimum legal requirements. These aren’t abstract rules, they’re required regulations such as 8cfr-287g1. Congress requires immigration officers to meet minimum standards for a reason. ICE cannot lawfully perform thier duties, make an arrest, carry a weapon, and use force; without passing appropriate training. New cadets are graduating from the academy, despite wide spread concerns among training staff; that even in the final days of training cadets cannot demonstrate a solid grasp of the tactics or the law required to perform their jobs. Without reform ICE will graduate thousands of new officers that do not know their constitutional duty. Do not know the limits of their authority, and who do not have the training to recognize an unlawful order. That should scare everyone. DHS ensures the public these cadets can get the further job training on site for anything missing at the academy; this is a lie. Many graduates go to their home office just long enough to get their gun, badge, body armor, before deploying to places like MN, where ICE operations have minimal supervision. It’s shocking that anyone would think this is safe or responsible. And this pattern of lies is not isolated. It extends beyond the training programs, includes deceiving congress and lying to the public about the rules followed by ICE officers once they graduate. On my first day at the academy, I was instructed to read and return a memo in my supervisors presence that claimed ICE officers could enter homes without a judicial warrant. The acting ICE director authorized the very conduct that DHS in its own 2025 training materials called “the chief evil of against which the 4th amendment corrected” that is physical entry of the home without consent or a proper warrant. Never in my career had I ever received such a blatantly unlawful order, nor one conveyed in such a troubling matter. Incredibly I was being show this memo in secret by my supervisor who made sure that I understood that disobedience could cost me my job. ICE is teaching cadets to violate the constitution, and they were attempting to cloak it in secrecy by demanding that I lie about it. I am here to convey to the public the danger that is being created at the ICE academy. I know from my conversations with many other facility members, and many of the faculty; that I am not alone in my fear. Law enforcement is a deadly serious business, it is not a place for short cuts. Deficient training, can and will get people killed. It can and will lead to unlawful arrests, violations in constitutional rights; and fundamental loss of public trust in law enforcement. ICE is lying to congress and the American people about the steps it’s taking to ensure 12,000 new officers faithfully uphold the constitution, and can perform their jobs. I’m grateful for the opportunity to speak to you today and happy to answer any questions you have now or in the near future, thank you for your attention.”

Congressional testimony from Ryan Schwann former ICE cadet Instructor at the Glenco GA. training facility who resigned from ICE February 13th 2026
Ryan Schwank 国会证词要点总结

前 ICE（移民与海关执法局）教官 Ryan Schwank 在国会作证，揭露了 ICE 培训体系被严重削弱、违法指令被内部强制执行、以及 DHS（国土安全部）对国会与公众的误导。他的核心观点如下：
1. 培训被大幅削减，导致新警员无法合法、安全执法

原本 584 小时的培训被削减 240 小时以上。
被删除的课程包括：

宪法与法律体系
武器训练
使用武力标准
合法逮捕与拘留
权限边界

关键的“使用武力法律标准”（如“客观合理性”）被完全移除。
Schwank 指出：这使得学员无法在生死瞬间做出合法判断，严重危及公众与执法对象。

2. DHS 为赶进度而牺牲合法性与安全

高层要求在年底前“快速生产”数千名新警员。
为满足数量目标，DHS 拆除了学术与实操考核。
Schwank 表示：许多学员在毕业前仍无法掌握基本战术与法律知识，却仍被强行放行。

3. ICE 内部下达“违宪指令”并要求保密

Schwank 在第一天上班时被要求阅读一份秘密备忘录： 指示 ICE 警员可以在没有司法搜查令的情况下进入民宅。
他指出：

这违反第四修正案
违反 ICE 自己 2025 年的培训材料
违反联邦法规（如 8 CFR 287(g)(1)）

上级要求他“读完并归还，不得保留”，并暗示不服从会丢掉工作。

4. DHS 与 ICE 对国会和公众撒谎

Schwank 指控 DHS/ICE：

对外声称培训没有被削弱
声称学员会在岗位上获得补充训练
声称所有执法行为都符合法规

但他表示这些都是 谎言：

许多学员到达岗位后只拿到枪、徽章、防弹衣就被立即部署
某些地区（如明尼苏达）监督极少
这使未经充分训练的警员直接参与高风险执法行动

5. 现实后果：危险、违法、失控

Schwank 强调：

缺乏训练会导致 致命错误
会造成 非法逮捕、违宪行为、滥用武力
会破坏公众对执法机构的信任
数千名新警员将“不知道宪法义务、不知道权限边界、无法识别非法命令”

他认为这对全国构成严重风险。
6. 他代表许多教官发声

Schwank 表示：

他并非唯一担忧者
许多教官与教职人员都对培训削弱与违法指令感到恐惧
他辞职并公开作证，是为了提醒公众 ICE 学院正在制造危险

拭目以待中期选举之后会怎么样了

上级要求他“读完并归还，不得保留”，并暗示不服从会丢掉工作。
这和那三年电话通知执行FK异曲同工？

不对，有纸质文件层次略低一档！美帝建国才250年，这方面确实嫩了点！

我想知道那几个上枪的人还有没有下文了？
