President Donald Trump said he is considering deploying the National Guard to U.S. airports to support Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) operations, as travel disruptions mount during an ongoing Department of Homeland Security funding lapse.
In a Truth Social post on Wednesday, Trump blamed Democrats for the situation and praised ICE agents already deployed to airports. "They want our Country to fail... Thank you to our great ICE Patriots for helping. It makes a big difference," he wrote. "I may call up the National Guard for more help."
