- 🚨 Tom Homan, former Trump administration 'border czar,' asserts that members of Congress who interfered with an ICE facility were breaking the law.
- ⚖️ He argues that actions like shoving agents or criminally trespassing in facilities warrant prosecution by the Attorney General.
- 👮 Homan emphasizes the need to control ICE facilities for the safety of officers, detainees, and the public, stating the congressional visit was unprofessional oversight.
Critiques of Democratic Stance on Immigration
- 🗣️ Homan criticizes Democrats for defending individuals with criminal records, including MS-13 members, stating it lacks common sense and suggests they hate Trump more than love the country.
- 📈 He claims President Trump's border security success is unprecedented, citing data showing ICE arrested more criminal threats in the interior than the Biden administration.
- 🚫 The concept of 'catch and release' is declared over, with a focus on detaining individuals who arrive without proper documentation, as per statutory language.
Sanctuary Cities and Legal Authority
- 🏛️ Homan welcomes a federal judge's ruling that the President has the authority to deport under the Alien Enemies Act, contrasting it with what he sees as radical judges issuing nationwide injunctions.
- 📜 He highlights President Trump's use of existing laws for border security, unlike the Biden administration which he claims ignored or violated them.
- 🤝 Homan expresses willingness to work with anyone, including New York City council members, to end sanctuary city status and collaborate with ICE to remove public safety threats.
- 🌃 He points to a recent operation arresting 27 members of a gang involved in smuggling and trafficking as proof that collaboration with ICE and NYPD makes cities safer.
