Tom Homan confirmed that ICE agents will be deployed to airports starting Monday as part of a plan devised with Tedd Lyons and Ha Nguyen McNeill. This move is in response to TSA staffing shortages caused by the government shutdown. President Trump threatened ICE deployment if the stalemate continued.

The claims regarding ICE deployment to airports and related actions during the government shutdown are largely supported by multiple sources. Tom Homan's confirmation of ICE agents at airports and President Trump's threat to deploy them are corroborated by several reports. The TSA staffing shortages due to the shutdown are also well-documented. However, the statement by Hakeem Jeffries is an opinion and not subject to factual verification.
