Trump vows to make good on imminent ICE threat: ‘Tom Homan is in charge!’
President Donald Trump vowed Sunday to make good on his previous threat to deploy Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents to airports nationwide in a fiery rant shared on social media.
“On Monday, ICE will be going to airports to help our wonderful TSA Agents who have stayed on the job despite the fact that the Radical Left Democrats, who are only focused on protecting hard line criminals who have entered our Country illegally, are endangering the USA by holding back the money that was long ago agreed to with signed and sealed contracts, and all,” Trump wrote on his social media platform Truth Social.
Trump’s threat comes amid the ongoing partial government shutdown, which began last month after Democratic lawmakers refused to fund the Department of Homeland Security without significant reforms to ICE in the wake of the agency’s violent immigration enforcement operations in Minnesota and elsewhere.
The shutdown has led to long lines at airports as Transportation Security Administration officials – who work under DHS – have started to miss paychecks. Trump’s solution, he first proposed on Saturday, was to deploy ICE agents to help fill staff shortages.
“But watch, no matter how great a job ICE does, the Lunatics leading the incompetent Dems will be highly critical of their work,” Trump continued. “THEY WILL DO A FANTASTIC JOB. The great Tom Homan is in charge!!!”
