If you haven’t heard, President Donald Trump announced Saturday that he plans to send ICE agents to airports across the United States to handle security “like never before.”
Well, as of today, some ICE agents appear to be making their official debut, as a photo taken at Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport is circulating on X (formerly Twitter).

According to CNN, ICE agents have been deployed to 14 airports so far.

After Dave posted this photo, someone asked him, “Is this helpful?”

What’s Dave’s answer? Lots of shrug emojis. He responded, “My guess is they are acting as security and don’t scan anything. After someone scans your ID, they look at the screen. At least one person did. The person scanning the ID appears to be an airport office worker. The only uniformed TSA employee is running the metal detector and baggage inspection.”

In another tweet, Dave posted a video showing how ICE agents conduct crowd control. “ICE at the Atlanta airport seemed to be just doing crowd control and general security to release the few TSA agents that were present. I didn’t see them doing any identity checks or arrests or anything like that.”

There have been many reactions to this photo. One user said: “So ICE agents are paid to stand next to unpaid TSA employees? At least they took off their masks.”
“Yeah, he does look like he’s helping,” said another.

“Imagine you’re a TSA agent who hasn’t been paid in weeks, and instead of helping, they hand out $50,000 bonuses so the police can do nothing,” another said.
Another said: “************ loser just standing there.”
