Summary
President Donald Trump warned that he could send ICE agents to US airports to arrest illegal aliens if Democrats don’t agree to his budget demands to end the partial government shutdown. Trump made the comments on Truth Social, stating that ICE agents would prioritize arresting immigrants from Somalia. The Department of Homeland Security has been without new funding for five weeks, leading to staffing shortages and long airport lines. TSA agents are working without pay, and Elon Musk has offered to cover their salaries during the funding impasse. Major US airports have experienced severe delays due to high TSA officer absenteeism.
