3 articles · Updated · Bloomberg · Jun 9

Summary

  • New York City is set to receive a surge of US Immigration and Customs Enforcement personnel, according to Trump border czar Tom Homan, who said, “It’s coming.”
  • Homan said he warned Governor Kathy Hochul before she signed a bill late last month that curbs ICE operations in New York and bars agents from wearing masks.
  • The planned deployment threatens to deepen a clash between the Trump administration and Hochul over the president’s broader migrant crackdown.
