After being banned from the NBA due to racist remarks, Clippers owner Donald Sterling was given an offer by the United States government. If he chooses to sell the Clippers, government officials say that President Barack Obama will appoint him as of Director of ICE. ICE, short for United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement, has been under pressure in the past decade due to increased illegal immigration from the Mexican border.

Despite his racist remarks toward blacks, Barack Obama says that Sterling is the perfect candidate for the job thanks to his real estate experience. "Sterling knows how to evict people. He can apply the same principle to illegal aliens."
Sterling made most of his money as a real estate mogul, owning several apartment complexes in LA county. Rumors say he once harassed and evicted an elderly black tenant. Several lawsuits have been brought against his "unfair" housing practices in the past.
It is unknown whether Sterling is interested in the cabinet position, but it is believed that the Senate would approve his appointment thanks to Obama's endorsement.
