Trump puts ICE agents on the spot over masks in airports

Donald Trump put ICE agents being deployed to the nation’s airports in an awkward position on Monday morning by suggesting they should not wear masks when performing duties normally manned by TSA agents.

The Department of Homeland Security has been adamant about allowing the heavily-armed agents to hide their identities behind masks, explaining that they are at risk of being doxxed and harassed as they detain people suspected of being in the U.S. illegally.

But on Truth Social, the president made a surprising recommendation that could cause consternation among ICE officials since it undercuts their longtime claims.

“I am a BIG proponent of ICE wearing masks as they search for, and are forced to deal with, hardened criminals, many of whom were let into our Country by Sleepy Joe Biden and his wonderful “Border Czar,” Kamala (she never even went to the Border!), through their absolutely INSANE Open Border Policy,” he wrote.

“I would greatly appreciate, however, NO MASKS, when helping our Country out of the Democrat caused MESS at the airports, etc. Thank you! President DJT”
