Border Czar Homan Defends ICE Operations Against Democrat Attacks
Trump's border czar Tom Homan fired back at Democrat demands to handcuff ICE agents, defending the administration's historic immigration enforcement surge that has delivered the most secure border in American history.
In a no-nonsense interview on CBS's "Face the Nation," Homan dismantled Democrat talking points about ICE operations, particularly their demands for agents to remove protective masks despite an 8,000% increase in threats against officers.
ICE Under Siege: Agents Face Record Threats
"Threats against ICE officers are up over 1,500%, actual assaults and threats are up over 8,000%," Homan revealed. "These men and women have to protect themselves."
The border czar exposed the hypocrisy of Democrats who claim to support law enforcement while demanding ICE agents remove their protective gear. Just yesterday, the ICE director's wife was filmed walking to work, his home address was doxxed, and his children were targeted by radical activists.
Constitutional Authority Under Attack
When pressed about judicial warrants for immigration enforcement, Homan stood firm on constitutional grounds: "Congress themselves wrote the Immigration Nationality Act that gave power on the administrative warrant to arrest somebody. ICE is acting within the framework of federal statutes enacted by Congress."
Democrats are essentially demanding ICE ignore laws they themselves passed, showcasing the left's complete abandonment of law and order when it doesn't serve their open-border agenda.
Minnesota Success Story: Sanctuary Cities Take Note
The historic Metro Surge operation in Minnesota removed over 1,000 illegal aliens, proving that when law enforcement is unleashed from Democrat obstruction, results follow. The operation represents the largest deployment of federal immigration agents in department history.
"We need to flood the zone in sanctuary cities with additional agents," Homan declared, sending a clear message to liberal strongholds harboring criminals.
The Minnesota model shows what's possible when local authorities cooperate with federal law enforcement instead of protecting criminals. Sanctuary cities that continue obstructing ICE operations are forcing dangerous street arrests instead of safe jail transfers.
Cleaning Up Biden's Border Disaster
Homan reminded Americans why these operations are necessary: "Over 10 million illegal aliens crossed that border" during Biden's four-year open-border catastrophe. "They claimed the border was secure every day and it wasn't."
The Trump administration inherited a constitutional crisis at the border and has delivered record results through decisive action and unwavering commitment to American sovereignty.
Media Attempts to Divide Trump Team Fail
When confronted with Wall Street Journal reports attempting to create division within the administration, Homan shut down the narrative: "It's one team, one fight. The results speak for themselves. We have the most secure border in history in this nation."
The border czar's message was clear: while the media tries to manufacture controversy, the Trump team remains focused on delivering results for the American people.
Under Trump's leadership and Homan's execution, America finally has a border czar who puts American citizens first and refuses to bow to the radical left's anti-law enforcement agenda.
