Getting to Know Tom Homan, Trump's newly-appointed Border Czar (supercut)

Coming out of retirement for Trump (once again) Tom Homan is not shy about his opinions on how border security should be run. With 34 years and a tenure of 6 presidencies under his belt, Homan is not shy about sharing his policies and the reasoning behind them. These policies have been questioned by congress and rejected by his higher ups, calling them "heartless", but his numbers show results.

His nomination is on brand for Trump's campaign promises. If you have a question as to what degree Tom Homan is likely to pursue deportation, you'll find your answer in these targeted supercuts which include fact-checked annotation.

Homan is listed as a contributor to the Heritage Foundation’s “Project 2025,” a blueprint of that organization’s vision of a conservative government. Since 2022, Homan has been a visiting fellow at Heritage.

He’s also developed close ties with immigration restrictionist groups such as the Center for Immigration Studies (CIS), an organization that helped staff the top echelons of ICE when Homan was in charge.

Homan’s tenure as an advocate for tighter immigration enforcement has drawn accolades from the right and recrimination from the left.
