Former ‘SNL’ star wants Democrats to jail ICE agents if they take back Congress
Jones told host Nicolle Wallace that she wants a “reckoning.” The Best People
Former Saturday Night Live cast member Leslie Jones called on Democrats to consider arresting Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers if they regain control of Congress following the midterm elections.
Jones made the comments on her podcast, The Best People, during an interview with MS NOW host Nicolle Wallace.
“I don’t know. It just feels like the upside-down world,” Jones said. “You see somebody that’s doing something completely terrible, like some of these influencers, these crazy folks, and we let them go because freedom of speech, of course, but there should be accountability.”
“Like gravity,” Wallace interjected. “Things should fall.”
“You can’t continue to keep doing some wrong, you know, and you’re not gonna pay for that,” Jones responded.
When asked how she envisions the current political era ending, Jones described an ideal scenario contingent on a Democratic victory in the midterms.
“I’m hoping, this is what I’m hoping, that midterms, people come out and vote like crazy to switch it over, and then the reckoning comes,” Jones said. “That’s why I want, all, everybody that works for ICE, I want them in jail. I just want a reckoning. I want a reckoning. Y’all know y’all did wrong stuff. You know some of the stuff you did was so wrong. I need a reckoning. Because that’s, to me, that’s the only thing that’s gonna make it right.”
Fox News Digital reached out to ICE for comment but did not receive an immediate response.
