ICE to deploy agents at U.S. airports as shutdown drags on
TL;DR Summary
Border czar Tom Homan said ICE will begin deploying agents to U.S. airports on Monday, in coordination with TSA and DHS leadership, to bolster security amid the partial government shutdown and TSA staffing shortages. The plan, to be finalized Sunday, targets locations with the longest wait times and follows Trump’s threats to move ICE into airport operations, while Democrats warn against deploying what they view as untrained personnel at busy security hubs.
