Trump border czar Tom Homan reveals ICE teams are already arresting ‘public safety threats’
Fox News
Border czar Tom Homan said Tuesday that ICE agents are already being deployed across the U.S. to engage in a mass deportation operation.
The administration has promised to launch a "historic" mass deportation operation, and sources told Fox News Digital that arrests were being planned on "day one." Some media outlets reported on Friday about an operation in Chicago, but Homan said that was re-evaluated due to the leak of information.

"There was some discussion about Chicago because the specific operational plan was released. So we had to look at and reevaluate, ‘Does this raise officer safety concerns?’ And it does. But we've addressed that and teams are out there, effective today," he said.
