Former Superman Dean Cain Says He’s Joining ICE ‘ASAP’: America Was ‘Built on Patriots Stepping Up’

Dean Cain says he’s joining ICE.

During an appearance on Fox News’ “Jesse Watters Primetime” on Wednesday, the former “Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman” star explained that he spoke to the officials over at the United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement and will be joining their ranks “ASAP.”

He told Watters, “I put out a recruitment video yesterday, I’m actually a sworn deputy sheriff and a reserve police office, I wasn’t part of ICE, but once I put that out there and you put a little blurb on your show, it went crazy. So now I’ve spoken with some officials over at ICE, and I will be sworn in as an ICE agent, ASAP.”

When asked what motivated him to join the organization, Cain said that America is a country “built on patriots stepping up, whether it was popular or not,” and that joining ICE was “the right thing” to do.

“We have a broken immigration system,” he added. “Congress needs to fix it, but in the interim, President Trump ran on this. He is delivering on this. This is what people voted for. It’s what I voted for, and he’s going to see it through, and I’ll do my part and help make sure it happens.”

In his profile with Variety, Cain was vocal about his conservative values and his support of Donald Trump.

“I love President Trump. I’ve been friends with him forever,” Cain said. “Trump is actually one of the most empathetic, wonderful, generous people you’ll ever meet.”

In a separate chat with TMZ, Cain dished about James Gunn saying that the Man of Steel is an “immigrant.” Cain said that Superman has always stood for “truth, justice and the American way,” adding that “the ‘American way'” is “tremendously immigrant-friendly.” However, he maintained that “there are rules” to immigration in the United States that must be followed.

“You can’t come in saying, ‘I want to get rid of all the rules in America, because I want it to be more like Somalia,’” Cain said. “Well that doesn’t work, because you had to leave Somalia to come here… There have to be limits, because we cant have everybody in the United States. We can’t have everybody, society will fail. So there have to be limits.”
