Trump's Border Czar Tom Homan Warns Denver Mayor Over Mass Deportations

Tom Homan, President-elect Donald Trump's incoming border czar, has issued a stern warning to sanctuary cities, including Denver, stating that he would request Justice Department authority to charge officials with obstruction and harboring if they refuse to cooperate with federal immigration enforcement. This comes after Denver Mayor Mike Johnston expressed his readiness to go to prison in opposition to Trump's mass deportation plans for illegal migrants. Homan's comments indicate a potential legal confrontation between federal authorities and local officials over immigration policy enforcement, citing Title 8, U.S. Code 1324, which makes it a felony to knowingly harbor illegal immigrants.
