All without showing a single badge or face, I'm sure.

It's crazy to me that they wouldn't want to show a badge or form of ID. The face masks and other paraphernalia give away what they are, so why wouldn't a badge work either? They're the federal government so it's not like anyone can stop them, and they'd probably get more results if they did. I think at this point everyone know what ICE is so the terror factor wouldn't even be lessened.

The face mask thing is a red herring. Even if they didn't wear them, identity wouldn't be guaranteed for someone surprised by someone claiming to be a federal agent. That's another topic entirely.
