Salem Radio Network host Scott Jennings shut down former Department of Homeland Security Chief of Staff and “No Kings” agitator Miles Taylor Monday night by asking him one question about an arrest at San Francisco International Airport.
President Donald Trump on Saturday ordered United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents to assist Transportation Security Administration (TSA) officers who have been working without pay for over five weeks. Taylor complained about a Sunday arrest, which took place before Trump’s order took effect.
“Is there a single report today of something going awry with ICE agents… Maybe there is” Jenning asked before “CNN Newsnight” guest host Kasie Hunt responded, “Well, thank God, for 24 hours something didn’t happen.”

“There was. There was an ICE agent refusing to identify himself arresting a woman in an airport, freaking people out. They weren’t even sure. It was in San Francisco airport,” Taylor claimed, with Jennings responding, “Well, what kind of an interaction was it actually? Do you know the situation?”
ICE agents apprehended an illegal alien from Guatemala who tried to flee as the agency was trying to enforce a deportation order dating from 2019, according to a Monday post on X.
“It was an arrest. I don’t know, Scott. What information do you have?” Taylor asked, with Jennings responding by asking, “Who did they arrest? Now you’re bringing it up. Who did they arrest?”
Video of the arrest went viral on social media, with elected officials from the area, all Democrats, criticizing the Trump administration for the arrest.
“This arrest occurred BEFORE ICE officers were even deployed to bolster TSA efforts to help American travelers who are facing hours long lines across the country. On March 22, 2026, ICE officers arrested Angelina Lopez-Jimenez and Wendy Godinez-Jimenez at the San Francisco International Airport. The family has an outstanding final order of removal from an immigration judge since 2019,” a Department of Homeland Security spokesperson told to the Daily Caller News Foundation when reached for comment.
“While being escorted to the international terminal for processing, Lopez-Jimenez attempted to flee and resisted law enforcement officers. ICE is working as quickly as possible to repatriate the family unit to their home country of Guatemala,” the spokesperson added.
Democrats demanded new restrictions on ICE after the fatal shootings of Alex Pretti and Renee Nicole Good in January during the agency’s clashes with “rapid response groups” opposed to federal immigration enforcement operations. The proposed restrictions Democrats insist on include having ICE agents stop wearing masks and for agents to obtain a so-called “judicial warrant” before entering private property to arrest illegal immigrants.
ICE agents deployed to 14 airports in major cities, including Houston, Philadelphia, Atlanta and Chicago to mitigate a shortfall in TSA agents, many of whom are calling out due to the shutdown.
