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.
