President Donald Trump has appointed Tom Homan as the new Border Czar, a move praised by Texas Governor Greg Abbott for Homan's tough stance on border security. Homan has promised swift action to secure the southern border, including mass deportations and a crackdown on criminal cartels. He has warned that he will arrest Arizona Governor Katie Hobbs if she interferes with these efforts. Homan has also stated his intention to reduce the use of ankle monitors for immigrant gang members, opting instead to incarcerate them. He has put mayors on notice, asserting that a secure border saves lives and that he will not be deterred by opposition from sanctuary cities or local officials. Homan has specifically mentioned that he will be in Chicago, Illinois on Day 1 to address border issues there. He has emphasized that illegal aliens will be sent home and that criminal cartels will be put out of business.
