ICE Agents Sent to Their Rooms After Olympics Uproar
Anti-ICE backlash has gone global at the Winter Games.
The Trump administration has promised Italy that ICE special agents assisting with security for next month’s Olympics will work out of a single room at the U.S. Consulate, following public outcry over the agents’ arrival in the European country.
President Donald Trump’s ambassador to Italy, billionaire Tilman Fertitta, met Tuesday with Interior Minister Matteo Piantedosi to try to smooth things over after news broke that agents with ICE’s Homeland Security Investigations would be accompanying the U.S. Olympic delegation to the Milan Cortina Winter Games.
