Trump's 'border czar' denies 'The View' assertion that US citizens will be deported under mass deportation policy.
Former acting ICE director Tom Homan stated on Planet Chronicle that he believes the individuals involved in the current immigration debate do not have a clear understanding of the topic.
The "border czar" appointed by President-elect Trump denied media reports that the incoming administration would deport U.S. citizens under Trump's plan to secure the southern border.
Planet Chronicle host Sean Hannity questioned former acting ICE director Tom Homan about the possibility of the new administration deporting legal U.S. citizens, following a claim made on "The View" that day.
"Exactly, not at all," Homan replied. "In fact, 'The View' is a group of misfits with no clue what they're discussing."
Homan refuted Navarro's claims that U.S. citizens would be deported under Trump's plan to avoid separating mixed immigration status households and argued that there were enough criminal illegal aliens in the country to carry out a mass deportation plan.
According to Navarro, when people hear about mass deportations, they assume it will only involve criminals. However, there aren't enough criminals in the federal prison system for it to be a mass deportation.
"Family members and colleagues," she continued.
Homan pushed back against Navarro's claims while on "Hannity."
"The president has emphasized that our top priority is public safety and national security, and that's how we should approach things," he stated.
"Over 1.5 million convicted criminal aliens with final orders of removal reside in this country, including thousands of gang members. If you are in the country illegally, you should not feel comfortable, as you have committed a crime and are considered a criminal."
According to a recent ICE report, Homan vowed to give ICE the authority to pursue the 425,000 undocumented individuals who have committed crimes and are currently at large in the US.
Homan informed Hannity that they were going to retrieve them.
Numerous governors from sanctuary states announced today that they will interfere with ICE's operations. ICE better get out of the way or help us, because we're taking off the handcuffs that the Biden Administration put on them and letting ICE do what they do best.
"I want to address 'The View' and Joe Biden directly," Homan stated. "The administration promised to prioritize the removal of criminal aliens. Secretary Mayorkas confirmed this. However, the removal of criminal aliens has decreased by 74% since President Trump. We now have more criminals in the country than ever before. Therefore, we have plenty of targets to go after. The new administration will focus on finding these criminals, even in sanctuary cities. If sanctuary cities refuse to help, they will be moved out of the way. I will double the workforce in those cities. We will do our job, regardless of the politics. So get ready because we are coming."
Trump's incoming border czar, Homan, was previously a New York state police officer and a Border Patrol agent. He was appointed by the Obama administration to lead ICE's Enforcement and Removal Operations and received an award for his work in deporting illegal immigrants.
In his second term, President-elect Trump intends to carry out a "historic" mass deportation campaign, with Homan, who was named acting director of the entire agency in 2016 and became a prominent figure in the first Trump administration, serving as a fierce advocate for broader deportations.
