ICE chief pushes back on Trump admin: 'No reason' for agents at polling places

Acting Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Director Todd Lyons pushed back on suggestions from White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt and MAGA influencer Steve Bannon that his agents could be deployed to polling stations.

Sen. Elissa Slotkin (D-MI) asked Lyons about the possibility of ICE agents at voting places during a Thursday Homeland Security Committee hearing.

"You listen to what the president and his cabinet are saying, I have to ask about our 2026 elections," the senator said.
