I don't see what NS split by a lightning bolt would refer to other than National Socialist - eg literally claiming affiliation/support to the Nazi party.
It is possible its something else and just incredibly bad fortune and an incredibly ignorant person who wouldn't get that connection is wearing it - but given the context that it's ICE.. I'm leaning to it being a nazi dog whistle to other like-minded ICE officers.
