Intense internal disagreements have emerged within the U.S. Department of Homeland Security over Trump's goal of deporting 1 million people during his first year in office. At one meeting, acting director Caleb Vittiero of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) clashed so fiercely with Rodney Scott, Commissioner of Customs and Border Protection (CBP), that staff had to "clear the room" to de-escalate tensions. The core of the dispute centers on a so-called "comprehensive deportation plan" promoted by Scott and his aides—and supported by newly appointed DHS Secretary Kristi Noem: establishing a national incident command center to integrate resources from ICE, CBP, and the Department of Defense, conducting concentrated immigration enforcement operations across major cities nationwide. The plan targets immigrants who have already been issued removal orders, requiring federal law enforcement officers to enter their last known residences without a warrant and swiftly deport those apprehended, with no right to appeal.
