Col. Jessup wouldn't need any help from ICE.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents will assist three Marine Corps bases with security to prevent foreign nationals from illegally entering.
Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton in California last week said federal immigration agents will be assisting with its security. And a Marine Corps spokesperson told Military.com on Tuesday that ICE agents will also be part of installation security at Marine Corps Base Quantico, Va., and Marine Corps Base Hawaii.
A Camp Pendleton spokespeople said that the pilot program is in the "proof-of-concept" phase.
"Marine and family readiness start at our bases and stations, and the safety and security of our Marines, sailors, family members, civilian employees and all who work and have proper access to Marine Corps installations are of the utmost importance," Capt. Kevin Uebelhardt, a spokesperson for Headquarters Marine Corps, said Tuesday.
"Our partnership with ICE enhances installation-level force protection by increasing visibility, coordination and threat awareness at critical access points and in surrounding areas," he also said.
Pendleton spokesperson Second Lt. Anna Hornick said the pilot program is part of a broader effort to deter unauthorized installation entry. She also said "ICE is here to deter unauthorized installation attempts by any unauthorized foreign nationals."
In 2023, The Wall Street Journal reported that anonymous officials said Chinese nationals had accessed military installations roughly 100 times in previous years.

Marines aren't capable of securing their own base?

That's a pretty logical question.

This has to be some twisted wording. How would ICE help secure a Marine base?
This has to mean they will simply be sharing information and coming to pick up the illegals.

Really? Hawaii?
I just signed up for the Civil Service Test. Is that still a thing?
How many illegal invaders are in Hawaii?

So did the Biden administration essentially tell the armed services to treat all bases like sanctuary cities where they, if caught, the service would not notify ICE they had an illegal alien in custody or being released?
Me thinks so. Me thinks this is EXACTLY the case.

Marines (T10) haven’t the domestic authority to detain illegals at the gate. Plenty illegals attempt to enter, but are denied access and sent away. With ICE present, illegals will be detained and arrested. Similarly, Navy ships in the Gulf of America (and elsewhere ) include Coast Guard dets (DHS) as Coasties have arrest authority.

Use of deadly force is authorized to secure military installations.

Years ago a contractor got caught bringing mexicans over in a boat because they couldn't get an ID to use the gate.
It's probably just like everything else. Someones buddy got the contract for a kickback and was saving costs any way possible to line their pockets deeper.
