ICE to deploy to US airports on Monday [View all]

CBP Chief Homan tells CNN's Dana Bash ICE will deploy to US airports on Monday but no one has a fucking idea about the details.

No link yet.



Got up late this morning, turned on CNN, got in on the end of CNN Dana Bash interview with Tom Homan, Trump's "border czar" who said, yes, ICE agents will deploy to US airports starting Monday.

He was very evasive about details, probably because no one has a goddam clue as to what they are doing.

Here is what I recall from the tail end of the interview:

Bash: Which airports?
Homan: We haven't thought about that.

Bash: How many agents?
Homan: We haven't thought about that.

Bash: What will they do?
Homan: We haven't thought about that.

So -- looks as though Trump and his band of idiot children have pulled another stunt out of their asses.

EDITED BY AUTHOR:

Is this perhaps Trump's plan all along?

-- Dramatically increase size of ICE as his private army?
-- Deploy them EVERYWHERE -- streets, courthouses, churches, now airports?
-- Put in place "Papers please" and if you don't comply -- beat the shit out of you or worse?
