Trump Overhauls ICE

The U.S. President Donald Trump administration plans an overhaul at ICE, replacing regional leaders with Border Patrol officials to enhance mass deportation efforts.
Dissatisfaction with ICE's arrest rates grows as arrests average about 1,000 daily, far below the White House's 3,000 target.
Border Patrol's aggressive tactics, including high-profile arrests in urban areas, have drawn criticism and lawsuits, signaling a shift to enforcement in Democratic-led cities.
