Fox ran a great story headlined, “Trump to appoint former ICE Director Tom Homan as next ‘border czar’: ‘nobody better at policing our borders’.”
The Hindustan Times’ headline even included the warning, “pack your bags, everyone.” A former police officer and INS agent, Homan was Trump’s ICE Director in 2017 and 2018. Before that, in 2013, he served as Obama’s Executive Associate Director of ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations. Corporate media calls Homan a “hard liner” because of his strict immigration enforcement policies, including his controversial “zero tolerance” policy that media hysterically claimed “separated families.”
At the National Conservatism Conference in Washington earlier this year, Homan was quoted as follows: “you’ve got my word. Trump comes back in January, I’ll be in his heels coming back, and I will run the biggest deportation operation this country’s ever seen.” Huzzah.
President Trump announced the pick late last night, and hysterically trolled corporate media by calling Homan the “Border Czar,” the same label that media fruitlessly and falsely claimed was ever given to VP Harris:
Winning.
