Tom Homan, President-elect Trump’s decide for “border czar” in his upcoming administration, pushed again in opposition to critics of his immigration ideology.
Fox Enterprise’s Elizabeth MacDonald confirmed current clips that includes MSNBC anchor Nicolle Wallace saying Homan has “ties to Project 2025,” former Housing and City Improvement Secretary Julián Castro saying he has “a cowboy attitude” and that Trump’s deportation plan will “require a lot of pushback” and “The View” co-host Ana Navarro saying “when he says ‘Yes, families can be deported together,’ what he is saying, is that U.S. citizens can be deported.”
“Are you saying that, Tom?” MacDonald requested Homan on “The Evening Edit,” referring to Navarro’s assertion.
Homan responded that “U.S. citizens” and “legal immigrants are perfectly safe, for God’s sakes.”
Late final month, in response to a query from journalist Cecilia Vega on CBS’s “60 Minutes” about the potential of going ahead with “mass deportation without separating families,” Homan stated “there is” and that “Families can be deported together.”
Earlier in his interview on “The Evening Edit,” Homan stated the Biden administration has “deported families together.”
“I mean, look … if these people demand due process, they demand the right to claim asylum, they demand the right [to see a judge], and we give them to ‘em at an [exorbitant] taxpayer cost, at the end of that due process, if [a] federal judge [says] ‘You must go home,’ they have to go home,” Homan added. “If they don’t, then what the hell are we doing?”
