White House: 'No tangible plan' for ICE at Super Bowl, where Bad Bunny will perform

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said Friday there was “no tangible plan” to deploy Immigration and Custom Enforcement (ICE) agents to the Super Bowl in February after the NFL announced Puerto Rican superstar Bad Bunny would be the halftime performer.

“As far as ICE being at the Super Bowl, as far as I’m aware there’s no tangible plan for that in store right now,” Leavitt said. “However, of course this administration is always going to arrest and deport illegal immigrants when we find them if they are criminals. We’re going to do the right thing by our country.”

Leavitt said she would leave it to President Trump to offer his own thoughts on the halftime entertainment.

Her comments came after Corey Lewandowski, an adviser at the Department of Homeland Security, suggested earlier in the week the Super Bowl could be a target for immigration raids. “There is nowhere that you can provide safe haven to people in this country illegally. Not the Super Bowl and nowhere else,” Lewandowski said Wednesday on “The Benny Show.”
