Holy shit...My brother's tour to Portugal includes one guy who's an ICE agent and another who's an immigration attorney! [View all]

I want to preface this by saying that I personally HATE discussing politics when I'm on vacation. When I'm on vacation, I want to experience the culture, sights, sounds and food of wherever I'm at and NOT waste any time discussing the typically fucked up state of American politics. There's more than enough time to engage in that at home. Vacation time is precious.

My brother, on the other hand, LOVES to talk politics when he's on vacation. Which, probably played a part in the totally bonkers revelation that two of his European tour fellow travelers earn their living in diametrically opposed manners. One is a fucking ICE agent while the other is an immigration attorney. I learned about this when my brother called a few hours ago. I have no idea how the rest of the trip is going to go.

Holy shit.
