Trump announces Obama-era Border Patrol chief Mark Morgan will take over ICE
Fox News ^ | May 5, 2019 | Andrew O'Reilly

President Trump announced on Sunday that the former head of the U.S. Border Patrol under President Barack Obama will be his administration’s new chief of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

Trump in a tweet on Sunday announced that Mark Morgan will take over as head of ICE -- replacing former acting ICE Director Ronald Vitiello, who resigned earlier this month.

“I am pleased to inform all of those that believe in a strong, fair and sound Immigration Policy that Mark Morgan will be joining the Trump Administration as the head of our hard working men and women of ICE," Trump tweeted Sunday. "Mark is a true believer and American Patriot. He will do a great job!"

Donald J. Trump ✔ @realDonaldTrump I am pleased to inform all of those that believe in a strong, fair and sound Immigration Policy that Mark Morgan will be joining the Trump Administration as the head of our hard working men and women of ICE. Mark is a true believer and American Patriot. He will do a great job!

Speaking on “America’s Newsroom” last week, Morgan said that Congress has “shown again and again their failure to do what’s right” to fix the problem.

“They want to eat the elephant in one bite instead of looking at what they need to do right now,” he said.

Good...It's fitting that President Trump made this announcement on Cinco de Mayo.

Apparently not. Didn't you read who he chose?

Everyone except you knows Steven Miller now has baggage.

Mark Morgan has been making more sense on immigration than half the “Republicans” who show up on Fox.

Mark Morgan has been a regular contributor on FOX News and FOX Business...if he manages ICE anything like his statements on controlling illegal immigration, this will be a real improvement.

Great choice!!

Agreed, I believe he’ll be a nightmare for sanctuary cities and states.

Nothing short of mass deportation and retroactive revocation of shitizenship dating back to 9/11/01 will save the country. Otherwise you are all delaying the inevitable.

I think, based on seeing/hearing Morgan on FOX, that he will be good choice.

Most people don’t know that back in 1912, Hellmann’s mayonnaise was manufactured in England. In fact, the Titanic was carrying 12,000 jars of the condiment scheduled for delivery in Vera Cruz, Mexico, which was to be the next port of call for the great ship after its stop in New York.

This would have been the largest single shipment of mayonnaise ever delivered to Mexico. But as we know, the great ship did not make it to New York. The ship hit an iceberg and sank, and the cargo was forever lost.

The people of Mexico, who were crazy about mayonnaise, and were eagerly awaiting its delivery, were disconsolate at the loss. Their anguish was so great, that they declared a National Day of Mourning, which they still observe to this day.

The National Day of Mourning occurs each year on May 5th and is known, of course, as Sinko de Mayo.

I hope his actions are as good as his words.

I hope he wasn't using FOX as a platform just to impress Trump, {if he was, it worked}.

I believe the future POTUS has greater things to do at this time.

We will see, right now it’s all talk. Hopefully, he will loosen up the RoE to allow ICE use extreme force.
