Donald Trump has nominated former Oklahoma state trooper Lance Schroyer to run US immigration enforcement and has vowed that, if confirmed, Schroyer will oversee the detention and removal of migrants at a rate 'never seen before,' according to a Truth Social post published on Saturday.
Trump putting hardline immigration enforcement at the centre of his political message, repeatedly casting the Department of Homeland Security and its Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) arm as the sharp end of his promised crackdown on illegal immigration. ICE, which sits under the Department of Homeland Security, has long been a lightning rod in US politics, criticised by immigrant-rights groups while championed by Trump and his allies as a crucial tool of border security.
