Thousands of ICE Officers Will Be Reassigned From Desk Jobs to Field Work

The New York Post is reporting that incoming Border Czar and former Border Patrol agent Tom Homan will reassign U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents who are currently engaged in processing asylum applications and other office work to the field.
During the Biden administration, up to 70% of ICE officers from field offices were assigned to desk jobs. Most of them will be assigned and, after training in fieldwork, hit the streets of America's sanctuary cities.
Homan put those cities on notice.
“If they’re not willing to do it then get out of the way — we’re coming,” Homan said. He noted that tougher immigration enforcement will require more manpower “so if I have to flood agents to the sanctuary cities to get the job done then that’s what we’re gonna do.”
It's unclear how Trump's mass deportation plan will work. It's a good bet that people will not be randomly stopped on the street and asked for their "papers."
But doing the job that cities refused to do — holding illegal alien criminals convicted of felonies to turn over to ICE — would be a very good start.
“If the fugitive operations street team isn’t making enough arrests, they’ll crack down on them first,” a source told the Post. He's referring to the ICE program that helps field offices locate and arrest illegal aliens who represent a threat to national security or public safety.
“And if that’s still not enough, then they’ll probably be mandated to add more officers to the arrest team to make more arrests.”

Shift those IRS new hires over too if they’re remotely competent.

The real Border Czar (Kamala was the fake one that never even visited the border 😂😂😂) Tom Homan might be Trump’s best appointment yet.
