Border czar Tom Homan joins Fox Across America With Jimmy Failla to shed light on how the strategy he’s implemented to curb illegal immigration is already having a dramatic impact on apprehensions at the U.S. southern border.
“I mean, what we’re doing is when you secure the border, not only are you going to stop the bad element coming across, you’re saving lives. Like, right now we’ve got 95 percent, the numbers are down 95 percent, right? So, you know, many organizations, nonpartisan organizations, have done studies saying, you know, 31 percent of women make that journey to use cartels get sexually assaulted. So you look at, when 95 percent less people are coming, like right now, how many women aren’t being raped by the cartels? How many children aren’t dying, you know, making that journey? How many women and children aren’t sex trafficked across the border? How many pounds of fentanyl is not getting through a secured border? How many billions of dollars a cartel is not making? How many people on terrorist watchlist aren’t crossing the border? So secure border saves lives. So president Trump’s policies, executive actions is bold action is saving thousands of lives every week.”
Tom also pushes back on the ways in which certain mainstream media outlets have been portraying the work being carried out by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents throughout the country. Listen to the podcast to hear the full interview!
