Here’s where ICE officers have been spotted assisting TSA with airport security lines

President Trump deployed ICE agents to select airports Monday to assist TSA with security checkpoint operations amid staffing shortages caused by the federal shutdown. Border Czar Tom Homan is overseeing the deployment of the federal agents to help manage long security lines and flight delays affecting travelers. The move reflects the administration's effort to maintain airport operations during a period when some federal workforce positions remain unfilled due to shutdown-related furloughs. ICE personnel, typically focused on immigration enforcement, are being repurposed to support aviation security screening in a temporary capacity. The deployment underscores the broader operational pressures the shutdown has created across multiple federal agencies.
