Border Czar Tom Homan has responded to criticism from Selena Gomez regarding the ongoing mass deportations in the U.S., stating that he has 'no apologies' and will continue to enforce the law. Homan's comments come in the wake of Gomez's viral video where she expressed emotional distress over the deportations. Homan emphasized that the operations are focused on public safety and national security threats, not families, and urged critics to take their concerns to Congress if they wish to change the law. He highlighted the arrests made during recent operations, including 9 members of the Tren de Aragua gang, 2 individuals with murder convictions, and at least 7 sexual predators, underscoring the necessity of these actions to make communities safer. Homan noted that these arrests occurred in Chicago, a sanctuary city, which he believes complicates the enforcement process.
