Tom Homan: Trump's Border Czar and the Deportation Agenda

Tom Homan has been appointed by U.S. President-elect Donald Trump to lead the deportation initiative focusing on immigrants posing security threats or working illegally. His approach includes cooperating with local law enforcement and prioritizing public safety, potentially removing around 1 million immigrants annually.

U.S. President-elect Donald Trump's appointment of Tom Homan as the new 'border czar' is set to bring a stricter deportation policy, targeting immigrants in the U.S. illegally who are seen as safety threats or violating jobsite laws.

Slated to take office in January, Trump reaffirmed his hardline immigration stance, declaring Homan's leadership will oversee comprehensive border operations, including both land and maritime security measures.

While immigrant advocates decry the potential humanitarian toll, Homan stresses public safety and intends to enhance cooperation with local law enforcement to execute these operations efficiently.
