Donald Trump said Saturday he will deploy Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents to US airports on Monday if an agreement isn’t reached to fund the Department of Homeland Security amid a partial government shutdown.
It is unclear what function the ICE agents would perform since they’re not trained in airport security screening. TSA screeners have a several months-long training period before they’re on the job, though airline employees and private security companies have partnered on line controlling and guarding exit doors.
The agents could potentially help in more limited roles — like managing lines, directing passengers or helping move people through the checkpoint process — to free up trained TSA officers for critical security functions.
They’ve going to continue being the Gestapo, just at the airport now.
Yep! And that’s not going to go over well with the more well-to-do business and political frequent flyers that have been either supporting him or looking the other way for him. There’s no way ICEholes will be able to act civilized or in any other way than the outlaw thug lifestyle to which they’ve become accustomed.
I just read that Homan has confirmed they’re going to start tomorrow (Monday). I wonder if they’ll be wearing camo and masks, or will just be cosplaying in TSA uniforms. Either way, they won’t be able to hide who they are and they’ll be treating people like shit. They won’t know what to do if they can’t wave a gun in their faces to make them obey.
