Fox News
The person who will be nominated to lead Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is expected to be announced in the coming days, sources tell Fox News Digital.
Who is in the running is unclear. One source said on Thursday that there are still multiple candidates being discussed and that the Trump team has yet to whittle the list down. Adam Shaw is a politics reporter for Fox News Digital, primarily covering immigration and border security.

Sources had previously suggested that John Fabbricatore, a former ICE field officer, and Todd Lyons, currently leading the agency’s Enforcement and Removal Operation (ERO) unit in Boston, were among the top contenders. The transition team is understood to be looking for someone with a deep law enforcement background to lead the agency.
