Perhaps there is something going on behind the scenes with Senate Republicans, probably the squishy ones, that means Trump does want to appoint him as Director of Homeland Security? Why not name him ICE Director again? Who will be ICE Director? Surely Trump doesn’t want to keep current acting director, Patrick Lechleitner, a Biden holdover, does he? He would want someone who will do the job
Trump taps Tom Homan as his ‘border czar,’ avoiding Senate confirmation battle
President-elect Donald Trump will tap his former head of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, Tom Homan, to be the “border czar” in his administration.
Trump announced late Sunday evening that he would make Homan responsible for the southern border, northern border, coastal and air borders. Homan was under consideration to lead the entire Department of Homeland Security, a Senate-confirmed Cabinet position.
“I am pleased to announce that the Former ICE Director, and stalwart on Border Control, Tom Homan, will be joining the Trump Administration, in charge of our Nation’s Borders (“The Border Czar”), including, but not limited to, the Southern Border, the Northern Border, all Maritime, and Aviation Security,” Trump posted on Truth Social. (snip)
Homan said in an interview on Fox News’s Sunday Morning Futures that Trump planned to first target illegal immigrants with criminal histories for deportation.
“It’s going to be the worst first,” said Homan, adding that he hasn’t advocated for military involvement. “It will be a humane operation, but it’s a necessary mass deportation operation.”
Homan’s appointment means he will not need to get Senate confirmation, avoiding an ugly and potentially difficult process given Homan’s loyalty to Trump through the years. As a “czar,” Homan will advise the president on border issues and be the point person on related matters.
The position of ICE Director does require Senate confirmation, and, I’d think it would be great, with Republicans and Hollman explaining exactly why illegals are a danger, especially all those murderers, rapists, gang members, etc, that Biden-Harris have let in. I suspect that Hollman isn’t interested in going through all that, that he just wants to be an advisor. Regardless, what’s going to happen at the border is going to make the pro-illegal immigration forces (as long as the illegals are Elsewhere) nuts
????????Massachusetts Governor to Form COUP Against Donald Trump
Maura Healey claims she WILL NOT obey Presidential Orders from Donald Trump to assist in The Removal of Illegal Aliens.
You’ve just admitted to a Felony on Television. Congratulations.

Trump and Hollman should start shipping a large chunk of the illegals/migrants claiming asylum to Massachusetts, particularly Boston, while their cases are adjudicated. Remember when she was declaring a state of emergency over all the illegals? Ship the fake asylum seekers who are not criminals straight to sanctuary jurisdictions, let them deal with it.
Anyhow, I see the good with Hollman as Border Czar being he can concentrate on getting it done without dealing with the day by day minutia of running ICE, and Trump can trust Hollman to get the job done while Trump concentrates on other things.
The Trump administration doesn’t need to ship anyone into Mass. Once word gets out, those at risk of deportation will flock there on their own. It’s once of those self-fulfilling things that normally happens with bad policy comes consequences. But really, once the federal gravy train shuts down, many immigrants will simply go home where it is cheaper to live. Again, it was bad policy that brought them in in the first place.
Holeman promises to be brutal! I suspect, for a month or so, they’ll advertise a number of high-proflle really Hispanic-looking dudes being deported. It’s all about the hype.
Trump claims there are at least 25 MILLION ‘illegals’ to be deported!! Many of the ‘illegal’ adults have American citizen children. Holeman says he will be deport entire families! If Holeman and Donnie deport 1000 per day it will take only about 70 years to get the job done. the entire concept is impossible. It would be more efficient to just line them up over big trenches and machine gun them.
Of course, it’s illegal to deport American citizens. Will that stop Trump? No. As he so often does, he will ignore US law.
I’ve asked here a few times now. How should/will the MAGAt Government handle the American citizen minor children of ‘illegals’ to be deported?
Options:
Deport them illegally.
Force them to leave ‘voluntarily’ with parents.
Make them wards of the state.
Do not deport ‘illegal’ parents with citizen minor children.
Leave the minors to their own devices. It’s not Amrica’s problem!
Pass an Amendment saying citizenship limited to those borne to BOTH parents being natural borne citizens.
Do you have other ideas?
Children of illegals are not US citizens, just because they were born here. That’s a misunderstanding of the 14th amendment.
Commenter typed: Children of illegals are not US citizens, just because they were born here.
You are mistaken.
In May of last year, Trump released a campaign video renewing his call to end the long-standing constitutional right, saying he would sign an executive order on day one of his presidency that would ensure that children born to parents who do not have legal status in the U.S. will not be considered U.S. citizens.
Of course, that same day a federal judge will enjoin any actions as it works it way through the courts. It IS possible Trump’s personal Supreme Court WILL overturn the 14th Amendment, at least in part. So there’s hope for you.
Anyway, President-elect Trump has previously said he could suspend the Constitution.
The 14th seems even a bit more clear than the 2nd.
You forget the “and subject to the jurisdiction thereof”. In the same way that children born to diplomats in the US are not citizens, neither are children of illegals. Ask the guy who wrote the amendment.
I clearly did not forget it, in fact I even bolded it. No doubt, Trump and Homan will challenge the Amendment by deporting the children, and Mr Trump’s personal Supreme Court can reinterpret it. Good luck. The MAGAt movement wants to tear down the US and rebuild it.
I baby born in the US is clearly under the jurisdiction of the US.
LOL. William “States Rights” Teach believes the US President can order Governors to do stuff.
It’s against federal law to transport ‘illegals’, but of course, both Trump and Teach consider US law to be ‘suggestions’.
Today Teach is measuring brown humans in ‘chunks’, replacing ‘tons’.
Anyway, the MAGAt DOJ will start filing felony charges against Democrats who refuse to obey Trump.
Explain to us how it’s against federal law to transport illegals while stupid biden and the whore harris have been doing so for four years? Do yo mean it’s against federal law
for Republicans to transport illegals?
Why are you hounding LGB about something he had no control over? Just to be cruel?
Hi CarolAnn,
if you knowingly load ‘illegals’ onto a bus to transport them around the nation, you’ve broken federal law. It’s difficult to claim that TX Gov Abbott doesn’t know the ‘illegals’ are here illegally since he calls them ‘illegal’. So… either they’re not here illegally OR Gov Abbott should be in prison.
OK. Why did you threaten to have my home SWATTed based on my personal information supplied by another commenter?
In that same vein, why did LGB threaten me, my finances, my adult children, and our personal safety? He said he had access to my credit card numbers, SS number, my children’s addresses etc. He’s accused me of embezzlement and pedophilia.
I take no pleasure in making him feel pain for his previous bad actions. He knows how to stop our personal arguments.
Hi CarolAnn,
You typed: something he had no control over
It appears to be a conservative belief that only women are responsible for pregnancies, a position that defies biology.
Even young, unmarried men have the ability to control having unprotected sex with women. Maybe if we required men take equal responsibility for impregnating women, we would have a lower rate of unwanted pregnancies and abortions.
Imagine if we could track down the DNA of every impregnator and hold them responsible, at least financially, for at least 18 years of rearing the children they sire? Why does 100% of the responsibility fall on the female?
Would this be a cure? Of course not. Typically, children grow up best with both caring parents, but financial security would be a plus, don’t you agree?
Hey asshole, this is the fifth time I’m explaining this to you.
The women in question were supposed to be on birth control. They were for a time then decided they wanted to force me into marriage after I told them I did not want to marry them. After they informed me they were pregnant I got legal representation to draw up legal contracts wherein I would take care of my children completely in every way until they were 21 (not 18). I begged them to give me my children but they wanted money not our kids. They both denied my parental rights and after legal wrangling I lost and they both killed my children.
So, as I said there was nothing even the courts could do for me to save my children. You should know as a far left advocate men have ZERO parental rights on their unborn children. If the woman wants to kill them there is nothing the father can do about it.
So I would appreciate if you would stop blaming me for killing my kids. It is very cruel and hurtful.
None here that I know of said anything of the sort. But only women are responsible for abortions. I know that for a fact!
We did not have “unprotected sex”. What we had was women lying to try and get married. I have told every woman in my life I’m not getting married. These two tried to trap me. That can’t happen again since I had a vasectomy in 2006.
If the female has 100% of the right to the life of the child why should any responsibility fall on anyone else?
I begged for the lives of my children but all I was granted by the courts was a restraining order to keep away from the women. both of these babies had a loving and caring not to mention well employed and wealthy father. Their mothers decided to kill them. What do you want me to do about it?
Not a day goes by I don’t think of my murdered children and I certainly don’t need you reminding me of them and calling me cruel names. You are a very evil person.
You are wasting your efforts expecting him to accept reason and facts. Like any good monkey at the zoo, he actually enjoys throwing his poop at others. He isn’t going to stop.
LGB,
Not everything is about you. This was a general discussion about men taking responsibility for their actions.
I didn’t even mention you. I said I wouldn’t as long as you behaved.
We should reduce unwanted pregnancies which would reduce the apparent ‘need’ for abortions.
Perfesser,
Don’t you believe that men impregnating females need to take responsibility for their actions?
For gawd sake you’re a damn idiot.
I know you are, but what am I?
Grow up and make an argument.
Let’s all take a few moments today to honor and commemorate the service of all United States of America military veterans. We realize in some American circles the US military is considered weak and sick. But changes in our military is always met with objections – ending the draft, adding Blacks, women, gays, trans – all derided as making us weaker. The US military – Army, Air Force, Marines, Navy, Coast Guard and Space Force – are the strongest, most loyal (for now) and patriotic military in the history of the world.

For fuck’s sake, can’t you be polite to Mr Teach?
