Homan Explains How Immigration and Customs Enforcement Can Supplement TSA Workers

Apparently, CNN needs to play the game of pretending that Customs and Border Protection (CBP) as well as Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) do not already operate in U.S. airports.

Airports are border checkpoints, and the “customs” part of both ICE and CBP are functions that happen as part of regular duty for CBP and ICE officials.

As Tom Homan notes, CBP/ICE already exist in airports and can assist Transportation Security Administration (TSA) officials in various duties including, customs checks, routine security, entrance/exit security as well as baggage and pre-boarding security checkpoints that do not involve the use of x-ray and scanning machines.  In fact, more than half the functioning work of TSA agents can easily be handled/supported by ICE/CBP agents.

But CNN needs to build a narrative, so the reality of simple explanations works against their interests.  WATCH:
