Acting head of Immigration and Customs Enforcement Todd Lyons has not been keeping well because of all the pressure the administration puts on him, Politico reported citing sources who said Lyons had been hospitalized twice over the last seven months. In one incident in December, Lyons’ security detail drove him to a hospital in Washington and he was admitted overnight, according to one former and two current administration officials. During an episode in September, the three people said Lyons was hospitalized for at least one night, the report by Daniel Lippman said.
The sources recounted one particular incident to Politico where Lyons became so distressed when ICE agents couldn't locate a migrant on their target list in Los Angeles that one of his bodyguards took a portable defibrillator from a nearby government office to Lyons in case he needed medical intervention.
