Trump Deploys ICE to Airports, Escalating Immigration Crackdown

0:00Hey, it's Cory with the story with Durham News today, your city, your news, every day. President Trump announced he will deploy federal immigration officers to major airports starting Monday and less Democrats pass a bill to fund the Department of Homeland Security. He shared the plan in social media posts on Saturday aiming to ramp up immigration enforcement right at airport checkpoints. This comes amid a partial government shutdown that's already causing long security lines at busy airports across the country. Trump wants these immigration and customs enforcement agents to target and arrest people in the U.S. illegally, extending the administration's border. Crack down to traveler hubs. With the standoff in Congress dragging on, airports could see even more changes soon if no deal is reached.
