There's About to Be a Huge Shake-Up at ICE; And the Left Is Gonna Be Furious

Matt Margolis-Opinion : Oct 29, 2025  PJ Media

...If this overhaul works as intended, deportations are about to surge, and the left will lose its mind. But that's exactly the point. Trump ran on restoring law and order, and his team isn't about to apologize for actually doing it.

[PJMedia.com] A major shakeup is reportedly underway inside Immigration and Customs Enforcement, with multiple senior DHS and Trump administration sources confirming that a mass removal of ICE leadership is in progress. According to Fox News correspondent Bill Melugin, "up to 12 ICE field office chiefs [are] being removed & reassigned in an effort to increase deportation numbers." The move is said to be led by longtime Trump ally Corey Lewandowski and will likely see several ICE directors replaced by Border Patrol and CBP officials—some hand-picked by "aggressive & controversial" Border Patrol Commander Greg Bovino.

Among those being removed, Melugin reports, are ICE Field Office Directors in Los Angeles, Phoenix, Philadelphia, Denver, El Paso, San Diego, Seattle/Portland, and New Orleans. The shift could mark a significant operational change, given that ICE and Border Patrol "do different things," as Melugin explained.

ICE traditionally carries out targeted enforcement actions, focusing on criminal illegal aliens or individuals with deportation orders. Agents often conduct surveillance and "wait hours before arresting them if needed." Border Patrol, on the other hand, has taken on a much more aggressive role under Trump's second term, spearheading some of the administration's most controversial immigration operations. Melugin notes they've conducted "roving patrols in Los Angeles, Chicago, etc., often at Home Depot, car washes, [and] flea markets," which have already prompted injunctions from several federal judges.

Many viral immigration enforcement videos online actually involve Border Patrol rather than ICE, such as the "Trojan horse style" Penske truck sting at a Los Angeles Home Depot—an operation organized by Bovino himself. Yet ICE often bears the brunt of public outrage because, as Melugin points out, "the media and activists often cannot tell the difference between federal agents."

Inside DHS, this aggressive new strategy is reportedly causing tension. Sources tell Melugin that Border Czar Tom Homan and ICE Director Todd Lyons want to stay focused on targeting "the worst of the worst"—criminal aliens and those with deportation orders. But DHS Secretary Kristi Noem, Lewandowski, and Bovino favor broader sweeps to fulfill President Trump's promise of mass deportations... Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
