America's border has undergone one of the most dramatic turnarounds in modern history.
In this exclusive conversation, Border Czar Tom Homan joins Erick Stakelbeck from the White House to reveal how the Trump administration transformed what was once the worst border crisis in U.S. history into what Homan calls the most secure southern border America has ever had.
Homan explains why catch-and-release is over, illegal crossings have plummeted, and ICE is conducting record numbers of arrests and deportations despite unprecedented political opposition, lawsuits, and attacks against federal agents. He also addresses the misinformation surrounding immigration enforcement and why he believes the American people deserve to hear what is actually happening on the ground.
Homan delivers a blunt message: America's border is finally under control—but the work isn't finished. From the search for nearly 150,000 missing migrant children and the ongoing effort to locate every one of them to the dismantling the cartels to removing dangerous criminal aliens and protecting the homeland from terrorist threats, he says the mission now is to finish what was started. The border is secure. The cartels are hurting. And America is taking its sovereignty back. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
