Trump's Border Czar Plans Mass Deportations, Scraps ICE Arrest Restrictions

Dec 11, 2024, 04:45 PM

The incoming Trump administration has announced plans to rescind a policy that has restricted Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) from making arrests at sensitive locations such as churches, schools, and hospitals. This move aims to expand ICE's authority to detain undocumented immigrants across the United States. Tom Homan, appointed as the new White House 'border czar', has been actively detailing Trump’s core campaign promise of mass deportations through numerous interviews. Homan has warned that he will prosecute any local officials, like Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson, who attempt to obstruct these deportations. The policy change is part of a broader strategy to enforce immigration laws more stringently, with Homan emphasizing the priority of locating 325,000 missing migrant children. Homan's visit to Chicago to discuss these plans was highlighted on Dr. Phil's podcast.
