The White House press secretary on Monday shot down media reports accusing President Donald Trump’s border czar of accepting a $50,000 bribe from undercover FBI agents last year, telling reporters “the president stands by Tom Homan 100 percent.” MSNBC reported on Saturday that Homan was caught on tape accepting a bag filled with the cash from federal agents as part of an undercover operation in Texas during the heat of the 2024 election. According to the report, written by RussiaGate hoaxers Carol Leonnig and Ken Dilanian, Homan took the bribe in exchange for helping the agents win government contracts in...

First they came for Jimmy Kimmel, but I didn’t say anything because I wasn’t…a lame-a**? No. In this Niemöller scenario, the deplatforming of the host of “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” comes at the end of the slippery slope, not the beginning. ABC canned Bill Maher 23 years ago for mocking Bush-era propaganda about our sainted Middle East occupation troops. Also at the request of right-wing Bushies after 9/11, MSNBC fired Phil Donahue—despite having the network’s highest ratings—for being too liberal and not pro-war. CBS News fired Dan Rather on a trumped-up ethical breach, and CBS radio fired Don Imus. Lenny Bruce...

Left-wing comedian Bill Maher tried to trap Border Czar Tom Homan this weekend with the standard liberal fantasy: just give amnesty to the millions of illegal immigrants already in the country. Homan shredded that argument piece by piece. His reasoning was so airtight that even Maher’s leftist crowd had no choice but to applaud. It’s not every day you see progressives cheer for enforcement, but logic wins when it’s delivered that well. Maher asked Homan why the agency couldn’t just go easier on those in the country illegally. Homan didn’t mince words: “What I’m saying is, that’s why you have...

In an undercover operation last year, the FBI recorded Tom Homan, now the White House border czar, accepting $50,000 in cash after indicating he could help the agents — who were posing as business executives — win government contracts in a second Trump administration, according to multiple people familiar with the probe and internal documents reviewed by MSNBC. The FBI and the Justice Department planned to wait to see whether Homan would deliver on his alleged promise once he became the nation’s top immigration official. But the case indefinitely stalled soon after Donald Trump became president again in January, according...

White House Border Czar Tom Homan joined Mika Brzezinski on MSNBC today to discuss ICE actions in Boston, Massachusetts. Boston Mayor Michelle Wu and Governor Maura Healey have both vowed to fight the Trump administration over deportations, with Mayor Wu calling them "oppression" while Maura Healey attacked the National Guard, saying they "do nothing" for public safety. Mika tried to defend Healey and Wu over their sanctuary state/city policies, and Homan was having none of it. Homan also brought the receipts, telling the audience exactly who ICE rounded up in Boston. That includes a 33-year-old illegal immigrant from Guatemala, arrested...

On Sunday's CNN State of the Union, Tom Homan gave an absolute master class in dealing with the liberal media on the issue of ICE operations. Host Jake Tapper might have thought he'd put Homan, President Trump's border czar, on the defensive by opening the interview by citing a meme Trump posted, based on the movie Apocalypse Now, in which Trump said, "Chicago is about to find out why it's called the Department of War." Tapper cast that as Trump "escalating his threats against the city of Chicago." It took Homan about five seconds to demolish Tapper's fear-mongering claim. "We're...

Border czar Tom Homan on Wednesday said that President Donald Trump’s federal takeover of Washington, D.C., means that the city can no longer enforce its sanctuary status. Homan said on “The Story with Martha MacCallum” that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is working “hand-in-hand” with the Metropolitan Police Department (MPD), which has been federally taken over, to arrest and deport any illegal immigrant criminal in Washington. The border czar promised that any illegal immigrant who commits a crime will not be protected under any sanctuary law. “I think D.C., under federal control, is not gonna be a sanctuary city. We’re...

Border czar Tom Homan revealed the Department of Homeland Security has already located 10,000 of the approximately 300,000 migrant children that went missing under the Biden administration. “Have you heard that anywhere?” Homan said on Fox News. “No, the media’s simply not covering it. And look, this should be a nonpartisan issue. Arresting public safety threats and national security threats, everybody should be on same page on that. Rescuing children, I mean, it should be a nonpartisan issue. Everybody should be in lockstep on that, but they’re not. The media’s lying. The Democrats don’t want President Trump to be successful,...

An active shooter reportedly tried to kill Border Patrol agents near an annex facility in McAllen, TX. Three law enforcement sources told Fox News’ Bill Melugin that the gunman attempted to ambush Border Patrol agents as they arrived at the facility. “Local police and federal agents returned fire, killing him,” Melugin wrote in a post on X. “I’m told this was a purposeful ambush/attack against federal agents and a press conference is planned for later this morning. No federal agents injured. Im told a McAllen police officer may have been shot, but is in stable condition.” This incident comes days...

BREAKING EXCLUSIVE: Border Czar Tom Homan confirms a federal investigation is underway into AOC for employing a criminal alien on her congressional staff and instructing them on how to evade ICE: "It's being looked at. We've asked ICE to drill in on that case. It's under investigation. As far as her educating people on how to evade ICE arrests, she's really educating them on how to be prosecuted. We have instructed ICE to start prosecuting these cases."

We might need to bring in Bill Murray—the man whose 1979 SNL skit made "Quien Es Mas Macho?" famous—to judge this one. Today's Morning Joe played clips of NBC/MSNBC correspondent Jacob Soboroff speaking with Trump border czar Tom Homan and California Gov. Gavin Newsom regarding the Trump administration's response to the rioting in Los Angeles over ICE's efforts to arrest illegal aliens. Soboroff mentioned to Homan threats that have been made to arrest anyone who stands in the way of enforcement operations, and asked if that applies to LA Mayor Bass and Newsom. Homan's succinct response: "I'll say it about...

Collin Rugg @CollinRugg BREAKING: A panicking CA Governor Gavin Newsom calls on ICE director Tom Homan to **arrest** him as the riots in Los Angeles rage on. "Tom, arrest me, let's go." The governor was seen lashing out at the Trump administration as his state descends into chaos. 9:39 PM · Jun 8, 2025

General Flynn's Perspective of the American Battlefield Millions of Americans rose up and voted for accountability within our government. We are demanding a restoration of trust, because we are a moral society that requires justice. < There are powerful patriots, dedicated servants working with President Trump, but they must be cautious of the bureaucrats that surround them with all the glamour and accoutrements of the office. Our leaders need to stay focused on accountability and the President’s agenda. We must go after the people that put our country into a declining state. America is in the midst of a coup...

President Donald Trump’s border czar, Tom Homan, has made it clear that having U.S.-born children does not grant undocumented immigrants automatic immunity from deportation. In a recent statement, Homan emphasized that while the presence of citizen children may be considered during immigration proceedings, it does not override violations of immigration law. During an interview on CBS News’ Face the Nation, Tom Homan reiterated that having a U.S. citizen child does not make undocumented immigrants "immune from our laws." “Having a U.S. citizen child after you enter this country illegally is not a get-out-of-jail-free card,” he said. “American families get separated...

A horde of a thousand protesters marched to border czar Tom Homan’s residence in New York to demand the release of a mother and her three children who Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents arrested during a search at a dairy farm. The Jefferson County Democratic Committee organized the protest. New York Attorney General Letitia James supported the demonstration, issuing a message saying she was “heartbroken and angry” over the decision to detain the family on March 27 as authorities executed a search warrant for a separate investigation, NBC News reported.The three children and mother were detained after Immigration and...

It's a great day for America, everybody. Yes, the FBI just arrested a leader of MS-13 in Northern Virginia, outside of Washington D.C. From Fox: Authorities have yet to release the suspect's name, but they say he is one of the top three leaders of the MS-13 gang in the U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel monitored the arrest as it took place Thursday morning. While the FBI gets credit for the arrest, ICE, ATF, and local police were all involved in the operation to run-in the foreign gangbanger. Trump credited Border Czar Tom Homan for...

Not only is Tom Homan ready to flood New York state with ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) agents to carry out mass deportation efforts, but he apparently has ICE flowing through his veins as well. Get it? See what I did there? Homan was in the Empire State on Wednesday, attending a rally for Republican lawmakers seeking to repeal a law that allows illegal aliens to attain a driver's license, as well as pushing for the state's version of the Laken Riley Act. Video of Homan, who has worked as a border enforcement official under both Donald Trump and Barack...

Pablo Manriquez, the Vanity Fair Congressional reporter who recently leaked details of ICE raids against criminal illegal aliens in Northern Virginia, doubled down after being called out by Fox News reporters. (Manriquez also is editor of Migrant Insider on Substack.) According to a bio posted by Manriquez, he was born in Chile, “Before moving to Washington, D.C., I earned a bachelor’s degree in history and political science from Notre Dame where I studied abroad — first in London and then Santiago de Chile, the capitol city where I was born in South America.” ..... Snip..... Fox reporters Bill Melugin and...
