President-elect Trump Names Hardliner Tom Homan as Border Czar Overseeing Border Security and Mass Deportations
Nov 11, 2024, 05:32 AM
President-elect Donald Trump announced that Tom Homan, former acting director of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), will serve as the 'border czar' in his incoming administration. Homan, known for his hardline stance on immigration, will be responsible for overseeing national border security, including the southern and northern borders, as well as maritime and aviation security. He will lead deportation efforts, including what is being described as the largest mass deportation operation in U.S. history, and will be in charge of all deportations of illegal aliens back to their countries of origin. By appointing Homan as a czar rather than a Cabinet secretary, Trump may avoid a Senate confirmation battle. Homan previously served as ICE's Executive Associate Director of Enforcement and Removal Operations during the Obama administration and was later acting ICE director under Trump. His appointment signals a focus on stringent immigration enforcement and border control in the new administration.
