White House withdraws ICE chief nomination amid GOP concerns and security ties

President Biden’s White House withdrew Lance Schroyer’s nomination to lead ICE after Sen. Rand Paul blocked the confirmation hearing and sought more information about a DHS probe into two agents accused of killing two U.S. citizens in Minneapolis; Schroyer, a Oklahoma state trooper with little leadership experience at a major agency, was closely tied to Homeland Security Secretary Mullin, making his confirmation a setback for immigration hardliners.
