Trump threatens to unleash ICE agents on US airports if Dems don’t end shutdown

President Trump on Saturday threatened to station ICE agents in airports across the nation as soon as Monday to ease the chaos and long security lines caused by widespread TSA absenteeism amid a partial government shutdown.

Trump called on Democrats to end the stonewalling that has cut off funding and paychecks for TSA screeners.

“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,” Trump said on Truth Social.
