President Donald Trump’s new secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, Kristi Noem, tweeted video Tuesday morning of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers arresting a man in New York City.

U.S. President Donald Trump's new homeland security secretary made sure cameras were rolling when she joined federal agents to arrest migrants in New York City, including a Venezuelan man wanted by Colorado police that Trump had made part of his anti-immigration campaign narrative.
