Bill Melugin Asked ICE Agents What They Thought of Trump’s Airport Plan (Cue MORE Dem Pearl Clutching) – Twitchy

March 21, 2026

As we told you earlier, President Trump said that if the Democrats don’t stop blocking funding for the DHS, including the TSA, he would make the situation really backfire on the Left:

Coincidentally, or perhaps not, a caller to The Clay and Buck Show on Friday had that suggestion:

🚨 BRILLIANT: Clay Travis’ show has caller that suggests putting ICE Agents with TSA Agents to get the Democrats to fold & end the shutdown! 🔥

Fox News’ Bill Melugin did his own little poll sampling opinions from ICE agents and for the most part the Democrats won’t like what they hear. But when do they whenever they’re not getting their way and illegals aren’t being protected?

Despite the radical left’s lies, new legislation wasn’t needed to secure our border, just a new president. However, the Democrats continue to prove that they prioritize illegals over citizens.
