ICE

Flyover -   Border czar Tom Homan said ICE won't operate X-ray machines but will cover exit lanes and check IDs to free up screeners for security checkpoints. It takes four to six months to train and certify a TSA officer, a process ICE agents haven’t undergone

Bloomberg - 
Trump is directing ICE agents to airports, where “they will do Security like no one has ever seen before.” The goal is to help ease long security lines, triggered by TSA agents—who haven’t been paid in several weeks—calling in sick. 

NY Times - ICE personnel, including agents from Homeland Security Investigations, are planning to be at 14 airports, according to a document obtained by The Times. The airports include Newark, Philadelphia, Chicago, Atlanta, New Orleans, Houston and Phoenix, as well as Kennedy and LaGuardia in New York.
