- On Monday, the Department of Homeland Security said the administration is on pace to deport nearly 600,000 people by the end of Trump's first year, short of the deportation target of 1,000,000.
- Customs and Border Protection officers will fill half the replacements, with ICE officers filling the rest, targeting Chicago, Los Angeles, Washington, and four other cities.
- Homeland Security and the White House declined to comment and emphasized unity while Tricia McLaughlin said the department is `laser focused on RESULTS` and Abigail Jackson said the administration is working in lockstep amid major deployments and protests.
- Internal divisions show ICE is reallocating at least half of its 25 field offices, with DHS saying it is `laser focused on RESULTS`, as ICE receives funding to hold 100,000 migrants and recruits 10,000 agents, with over 60,000 in custody.
