NEW YORK (AP) \u2014 President Donald Trump on Saturday said he is nominating Lance Schroyer, a former Oklahoma state trooper, as the next director of Immigration and Customs and Enforcement.<\/span><\/p>\n

Trump said on his Truth Social platform that his new pick for the immigration enforcement agency is a former U.S. Marine and a \u201cPATRIOT with real operational experience.\u201d He called Schroyer a \u201dproven leader with DECADES of experience locking up the worst of the worst.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The nomination comes after former ICE director Todd Lyons resigned at the end of May. David Venturella, a former executive at a private prison operator, has been serving as the acting head of the agency.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

If confirmed, Schroyer will lead ICE at a time when the public mood has soured on Trump\u2019s immigration crackdown, which sent surges of federal immigration officers into American cities to round up immigrants. Those raids sent tensions soaring and prompted clashes between protesters and law enforcement, leading to the fatal shootings of two U.S. citizens in Minneapolis earlier this year.<\/span><\/p>\n
