Defiant border czar brushes away MAGA critics, says ‘mass deportations are coming’
Homan said the administration will send more ICE agents to states that limit cooperation and expects collateral arrests to rise.
- White House border czar Tom Homan vowed on Tuesday to "flood the zone" with immigration officers in jurisdictions limiting cooperation, speaking at the Border Security Expo in Phoenix.
- Rejecting claims that the administration is "getting weak on mass deportation," Homan dismissed critics within President Donald Trump's base as "keyboard warriors" who "don't know what the hell you're talking about."
- Homan conceded that 35% to 40% of undocumented immigrants arrested during the current term have no criminal record, warning that "collateral arrests" will increase if states limit cooperation.
- Democratic Gov. Kathy Hochul of New York reacted sharply on Tuesday to the comments, noting that President Donald Trump previously promised he would not send ICE agents to New York unless she requests them.
- The administration under Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin is pursuing a more targeted approach following public criticism of operations under former Secretary Kristi Noem, which had drawn protests in Minneapolis.
