US President Donald Trump has threatened to send agents from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to provide security at airports, unless a deal is reached to fund the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), BBC reported. 

"I will move our brilliant and patriotic ICE Agents to the Airports where they will do Security like no one has ever seen before," Trump posted on Truth Social on Saturday.

The DHS has gone without funding since mid-February, after Congress failed to reach a funding agreement - leaving normal airport security without pay, according to BBC.
