ICE Storm: Inside Trump's Immigration Enforcement Surge
Under President Trump, ICE has intensified its crackdown on migrants, resulting in burnout among staff and public outrage. Amid aggressive recruitment to meet high arrest quotas, tensions rise from arresting non-criminals and public backlash. Trump's policy shift has led to criticism and a drop in public approval.

The Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency, under President Donald Trump, is facing internal and external pressures in its intensified efforts to crack down on migrants. With record funding, ICE has increased its operations, yet the demands have led to staff burnout and widespread public criticism.
While the administration emphasizes deporting criminals, data show a significant number of arrests involve non-criminals, sparking public and political backlash. Recruitment efforts are underway to alleviate strain on staff, but concerns over quality and morale persist among current and former officials.
Public disdain has grown due to images circulating on social media depicting aggressive ICE raids. The agency continues its efforts to scale staffing, facing scrutiny and the challenge of maintaining effectiveness and integrity in enforcement practices.
