BREAKING: Trump admin OUSTS acting head of ICE

The Trump administration has just ousted the acting head of ICE because the number of arrests and deportations of illegals isn’t high enough.

Caleb Vitello wasn’t fired from ICE, but was reassigned to overseeing field and enforcement operations.

Here’s more from Fox News:

The Trump administration is replacing the acting head of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) over concerns about the pace of deportations and arrests of illegal immigrants.

A source familiar confirmed to Fox News that acting ICE Director Caleb Vitello has been removed from his position. The source said that the administration is not happy with the pace of deportations and arrests. The development was first reported by the Wall Street Journal.

A spokesperson for the Department of Homeland Security confirmed the personnel change to Fox News.

“Caleb Vitello, acting director of ICE, is no longer in an Administrator role. He is, however, overseeing all field and enforcement operations: finding, arresting, and deporting illegal aliens, which is a major priority of President Trump and Secretary Noem,” they said.

ICE arrests have gone up significantly since the beginning of the administration, but not enough to meet the administration’s targets. President Donald Trump had promised a “historic” mass deportation campaign on the campaign trail.

Border Czar Tom Homan has made clear that ICE desperately needs more money, but that’s clearly not the only issue holding ICE back from the numbers that President Trump expects.
