Trump threatens to deploy ICE to airports amid Homeland Security shutdown
"Trump stated, 'If the Radical Left Democrats don't immediately sign an agreement to let our Country, in particular, our Airports, be FREE and SAFE again, I will move our brilliant and patriotic ICE Agents to the Airports where they will do Security like no one has ever seen before.'"
"He emphasized the immediate arrest of all Illegal Immigrants who have come into our Country, with heavy emphasis on those from Somalia, indicating a targeted approach to immigration enforcement."
"Since taking office for a second term, Trump has led a violent crackdown on immigration, legal and otherwise, with Somalis and Somali Americans being a particular focus of his administration's policies."
President Trump has called for increased arrests of Somali immigrants, criticizing Democrats for a government shutdown affecting the Department of Homeland Security. He threatened to deploy ICE agents to airports for security, citing delays caused by unpaid TSA employees. Trump has targeted Somali immigrants, previously labeling them negatively. He stated that if Democrats do not agree to a funding deal, he will use ICE agents to enhance airport security and focus on illegal immigrants, particularly from Somalia.
