ACTING ICE DIRECTOR LYONS VOWS TO STEP UP ARRESTS, THREATENS TO 'FLOOD' SANCTUARY CITIES

Acting ICE Director Todd Lyons told Fox News' "America Reports" the agency is arresting noncitizens with criminal records and criticized liberal sanctuary cities for resisting federal removal efforts. Lyons framed sanctuary policies as obstacles to public safety, defended ICE tactics, and signaled increased coordination with DOJ and field deployments to compel compliance. His remarks align with recent DOJ demand letters and public threats to increase ICE presence in jurisdictions like Boston.
