Trump’s ‘Border Czar’ Issues Warning to Democrat Governors Objecting to Deportation Plan: ‘Get the Hell Out of the Way’

President Donald Trump’s newly appointed “border czar” has issued a warning to Democrat governors who are objecting to the new administration’s plans for mass deportations of illegal aliens.
On Sunday night, Trump announced that former Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) acting director Tom Homan will serve in his next administration as his “border czar.”
The role of “border czar” in the current administration is supposedly filled by Democrat Vice President Kamala Harris, Trump’s failed opponent in the presidential election.
Homan sent a warning to pro-illegal immigration Democrat governors who are planning to stand in the way of Trump’s deportation agenda.
“If they’re not willing to help, then get the hell out of the way because ICE is going to do their job,” Homan warned.
Trump announced on Sunday that Homan would be appointed “border czar.”
Homan is in charge of the borders and “all Deportation of Illegal Aliens back to their country of origin” in the new administration.
Before that announcement, Homan responded to the comments by Democrat governors who have indicated they will not work with the administration on the mass deportation of illegals.
Last week, Massachusetts’s Democrat Gov. Maura Healey said:
“Every tool in the toolbox has got to be used to protect our citizens, to protect our residents and protect our states and to hold the line on democracy and the rule of law as a basic principle.”
When asked if state police would help with deportations, Healey fired back, saying:
“No. Absolutely not.”
However, Homan, suspects some of the so-called “sanctuary” jurisdictions will work with the administration.
“They’re not going to say it, but with all the alien crime and the young women being sexually assaulted and murdered, some sheriffs have been coming forward and working with us behind the scenes,” he said.
He said it would be useful to have the “force multiplier” of assistance from state and local governments.
Homan explained that it would help if ICE agents could have access to county jails where serious illegal immigrant criminals are locked up.
Nevertheless, he said that a lack of that aid would not stop the operations.
“If you don’t want to work with us, then get the hell out all the way, we’re going to do it,” he warned.
“What it means is, rather than send 100 people to Boston, we’re going to send 200 agents to Boston.
“We’re going to get the job done. We have a mandate.
“I think the American people just gave President Trump a mandate.
“That’s why he’s elected — to secure the border, save lives, and deport people, especially national security threats and public safety threats.
“So if you’re not going to help us, step aside, but don’t get in our way, because there will be consequences.”
Homan said that the immediate focus will be on those illegal aliens with criminal convictions or charges.
He noted that this had been the focus under the first Trump administration.
“It’s not going to be a massive sweep of neighborhoods, it’s not going to be massive raids,” he said.
“It’s going to be a targeted enforcement operation.”
However, he warned that it does not mean anyone is off the table.
“If you’re in a country illegally, you’ve got a problem.”
Homan argues that with millions of people having entered illegally across the Southern Border under the Biden-Harris administration, there have to be consequences for those who are found not to have a valid asylum claim.
Otherwise, it undermines due process, he noted.
“There will be a massive deportation operation because we had massive never seen before illegal immigration where 90% will be ordered removed. It’s common sense,” he said.
He also said that many illegal immigrants will likely leave by themselves when incentives to cross the border are ended.
As for how many can be removed, he says that will depend on the resources made available.
“It depends on resources, depends on the money,” he said.
“But I guarantee you that President Trump means what he says and there will be a green light to enforce our laws and secure that border.
“And that’s going to require a mass deportation operation.”
Homan, a former New York police officer, Border Patrol agent, and ICE chief, had been widely expected to play a key role in the mass deportation operation.
In a 2016 article, the Washington Post said that Homan “deports people.
“And he’s really good at it.”
On Friday, Homan said of his potential role in the administration:
“Here’s what I’ll say. I have not asked for a position.
“I have certainly not asked for a cabinet position.
“President Trump knows that if he needs me to do a deportation operation if he needs me to secure the border.
“I stand ready to help in any way I can.
“And he’ll decide what he wants me to do or if he wants me to do it.”
Instead, he emphasized the threat posed at the border and the determination of the upcoming administration to solve it.
“The Southern Border is the biggest national security vulnerability I’ve seen in my lifetime,” he revealed.
“It should be a nonpartisan issue. People shouldn’t be making death threats against me, hating on me.
“Securing the border should be a nonpartisan issue,” he said.
“And we’re going to do it …I don’t care what people’s opinions are, we’re going to get it done.”
