Bill Maher<\/a> issued a blunt response to Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman<\/a> star Dean Cain<\/a> joining ICE.<\/p>\n

On the Friday, Aug. 8 episode of Real Time With Bill Maher<\/a>, the late-night host, 69, didn\u2019t hold back with his thoughts on the 59-year-old actor signing up to be part of the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.<\/p>\n

\u201cICE going around there with their masks, throwing people into vans\u2014not popular. And yet, [Donald Trump<\/a> is] doubling down on unpopular,\u201d Maher said in his segue to the topic<\/a>. \u201cI mean, the ICE thing? They just need more people, so they\u2019re having a big recruitment program. No age limit now, they announced this week. No matter how young you are, you can be 18, you can be old as dirt. If you like wearing a mask and throwing people in a van.\u201d<\/p>\n

After noting there is a $50,000 signing bonus for those who sign up for ICE, Maher quipped, \u201cYou could put a porch on your house for that. Good luck to find anyone who would build it, but\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n

He then moved to Cain joining ICE, suggesting he did so \u201cnot because he\u2019s MAGA, he just needs the money.\u201d<\/p>\n

Maher joked, \u201cAnd it works out, he was already living in a van.\u201d<\/p>\n

After a beat, he continued, \u201cNo, I think he joined because he heard that lots of migrants were coming into this country and a lot of them were bad actors. He said, \u2018Room for one more?’\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

On Aug. 5, Dean revealed his unexpected career move on social media.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor those who don\u2019t know, I am a sworn law enforcement officer, as well as being a filmmaker, and I felt it was important to join with our first responders to help secure the safety of all Americans, not just talk about it,\u201d he said in a video to followers on Instagram<\/a>. \u201cSo, I joined up.\u201d<\/p>\n

Additionally, Dean touted the \u201cgreat benefits\u201d of the gig.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo, if you want to help save America, ICE is arresting the worst of the worst and removing them from America\u2019s streets,\u201d he added. \u201cI like that. I voted for that. They need your help. We need your help, to protect our homeland and our families.\u201d<\/p>\n
