Chuck Schumer shut down DHS funding to defang ICE. He may have just handed Trump a permanent ICE presence at every major airport in America.
Trump has announced ICE will remain at airports indefinitely. And Border Czar Tom Homan just explained exactly what that looks like on the ground:
𝘠𝘰𝘶 𝘬𝘯𝘰𝘸, 𝘐 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘤𝘩𝘦𝘤𝘬 𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘧𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘣𝘦𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘦 𝘱𝘦𝘰𝘱𝘭𝘦 𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘳 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘤𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢𝘳𝘦𝘢. 𝘞𝘦'𝘳𝘦 𝘵𝘳𝘺𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘰 𝘳𝘦𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘴𝘦 𝗧𝗦𝗔 𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘰𝘶𝘳𝘤𝘦𝘴 𝘵𝘰 𝘨𝘦𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘱𝘰𝘴𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘯𝘦𝘦𝘥 𝘦𝘹𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘵𝘪𝘴𝘦 𝘪𝘯, 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘹-𝘳𝘢𝘺 𝘴𝘤𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨. 𝗦𝗼 𝘄𝗲'𝗿𝗲 𝗴𝗼𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝗯𝗲 𝗮 𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗰𝗲 𝗺𝘂𝗹𝘁𝗶𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗿.
Think about what Schumer actually did here. He blocked TSA funding to prevent ICE from doing its job. Trump responded by deploying ICE directly to airports. Now ICE is checking IDs at the front door — before anyone even reaches TSA screening — and Trump has declared it permanent.
𝗗𝗲𝗺𝗼𝗰𝗿𝗮𝘁𝘀 𝘀𝗵𝘂𝘁 𝗱𝗼𝘄𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗴𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝗿𝗶𝗱 𝗼𝗳 𝗜𝗖𝗘. 𝗧𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗱 𝘂𝗽 𝗽𝘂𝘁𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗜𝗖𝗘 𝗶𝗻 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗮𝗶𝗿𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁 𝗶𝗻 𝗔𝗺𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗮. 𝗣𝗲𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗹𝘆.
TSA agents get to focus on what they're trained for — x-ray screening and security. ICE handles ID verification at the entrance. The airports actually run better. And anyone in this country illegally just lost one of the last places they could move around anonymously.
This is what happens when you play checkers against someone playing chess.
