Homeland Security Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin condemned “Hacks” star Hannah Einbinder for denigrating Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers at the Emmy Awards.
While receiving her award for Best Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series for the HBO Max show on Sunday, Einbinder concluded her speech by saying, “F— ICE and free Palestine!”
In a statement to TMZ on Monday, McLaughlin blasted the remark, which was bleeped out during the CBS broadcast.
“How ugly — such demonization is inspiring violence against our ICE law enforcement, who are facing a 1,000% increase in assaults against them”, McLaughlin said.
She added, “As this woman fans the flames of hatred, our brave law enforcement will continue enforcing the rule of law and protecting Americans.
