ICE officers will be deployed to airports to help clear the horrendous security lines for the TSA, which ran out of funding more than a month ago because of a Democrat shutdown, President Trump announced Sunday.
The move is meant to speed up security lines, which have stretched up to three hours at some airports as TSA agents walk off the job or call out sick because they haven’t been paid in weeks.
“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 Truth Social.
The president predicted his decision to send the federal immigration agents to airports nationwide would be met with criticism from the left.
“But watch, no matter how great a job ICE does, the Lunatics leading the incompetent Dems will be highly critical of their work,” Trump said, asserting, “THEY WILL DO A FANTASTIC JOB.”
Border czar Tom Homan will be “in charge” of the operation, the president added.
Homan said during an interview on CNN’s “State of the Union” Sunday that he doesn’t envision ICE agents doing the jobs of TSA screeners, but rather handling other aspects of airport security.

Just having ice there will reduce the lines as illegals avoid the lines.
It would have been less painful to Americans if the government just threw all Muzzies out of America on their asses. TSA is a tool used to cut down on the number of Americans murdered by Muzzie Pork Chop terrorists.
Training will be minimal as training is not necessary
Exactly.
Scamalis will not be moving cash for now ,LOL
They crave an authoritarian state as long as it’s their party that running it.
Killing two birds with one stone...
‘show us your papers’...
Body cavity searches for all suspected illegal aliens and, of course, for all Demonicrats.
STOP THE “PRIORITY” LINES & MAKE ALL THE POLITICIANS WAIT LIKE THE REST OF US.
Those Blue State Senators who are not voting for the funding should have Zero help from ICE at their airports! Let their voters (🤣🤣🤣) feel the effect!
” Hey Abdullah, go to the airport to pick up cousin Nazar.” Abdullah dutifully goes and never returns.
I sure wonder what air travel will be like this coming week... and whether it will be better or worse than last week. There is a learning curve before things smooth out...
And when the illegals get tossed out, everything and every dollar they have accumulated needs to be confiscated. Don’t know how much you had with you when you got here? Assume $1 and confiscate the rest. Use it to pay down the national debt.
I look forward to seeing videos of them, hauling away an illegal alien.
Can Trump HAVE ICE DEPUTIZE AND PAY CURRENT TSA AGENTS?
Airlines demand you show your papers.
If you’re willing to fly, what’s the problem with showing your papers?
Not one problem at all.
It’s a target rich environment where showing your papers is required.
And any blue state sanctuaries, airports may be filled with workers who now have to go to work knowing ICE may share a lunch room with them..
Only wish it could have started on January 20, 2025.
Dulles was fine on Friday afternoon. There was like a 4 person line.
