President Trump used a single post this morning to overturn an order issued by DHS just last night that would have temporarily banned immigration officers from pursuing people who flee them in vehicles. 
The president posting that ICE cannot give up on traffic stops, which he called one of their quote most important and effective crime fighting tools. 
Now, that policy reversal caught ICE leadership by surprise when they read it online this morning. 
According to a DHS official, the temporary pause on traffic stops, which ultimately lasted just the night, was initially rolled out after officers in Texas and then in Maine shot and killed men who fled arrest in vehicles. 
Neither man was the officer's initial target, officials say.
