Summary
Former ICE Director Tom Homan confirms that ICE agents will be deployed to airports starting Monday as part of the ongoing partial government shutdown. This follows President Trump's threat to deploy ICE agents if congressional Democrats don't approve funding for DHS without significant changes to ICE. The announcement comes amid a political stalemate where Democrats are withholding DHS funding unless Republicans agree to ICE reforms.
