Border Czar Tom Homan made an appearance on this Sunday's State of the Union on CNN, and was asked about Trump's threat to send his ICE thugs to airports across the country to supposedly help TSA agents with the long security lines caused by TSA staffing shortages following a partial government shutdown.
Trump announced those agents were going to deploy this Monday, although there's no confirmation as to which airports they would be deployed at. When Dana Bash tried to pin Homan down on just how exactly any of this was going to work, Homan was short on specifics and had to admit that the ICE agents are not trained to handle most of the work TSA agents do, and they would not be operating any X-ray equipment.
BASH: President Trump posted on TRUTH Social -- quote -- "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."
Now, in a subsequent post, he said that he instructed ICE agents to be ready by Monday. And now the president is saying that you, sir, are going to be in charge. How is that going to work? Are ICE agents going to move into American airports starting tomorrow, Monday?
HOMAN: Yes.
