Trump threatens to use ICE agents for airport security control

US President Donald Trump on Saturday threatened to use Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents to provide security at airports amid a lingering budget standoff that has left regular security personnel going unpaid.

Trump wrote on Truth Social that if Democrats did not immediately sign a funding agreement, “I will move our brilliant and patriotic ICE Agents to the Airports where they will do Security like no one has ever seen before.”
