Trump Border Czar Promises ‘Hell’ For Sanctuary Cities In Fiery CPAC Speech

Trump Border Czar Tom Homan delivered a fiery speech at the Conservative Political Action Conference, praising the administration’s border security strides and promising an even more aggressive crackdown on illegal immigration.

Homan praised the Trump administration for achieving “the most secure border in my lifetime” and vowed to “open up every avenue of law enforcement” to combat illegal immigration.

In less than a month under these renewed measures, Homan said illegal crossings have dropped “95%” while Immigration and Customs Enforcement has conducted more than “21,000” arrests.

He also criticized sanctuary cities as providing a “sanctuary for criminals” and announced a broader interior crackdown. Homan further declared the administration’s intent to label Mexican cartels as terrorist groups, warning that their collaborators would be assisting a “terrorist organization.”

Homan used much of his remarks to underscore the need for strong cooperation between federal and local agencies. He censured officials who refuse to turn over individuals suspected of crimes to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), portraying them as harboring violent offenders.

“We’re not making this s*** up. We’re enforcing the laws enacted by Congress,” he said, warning all “criminal aliens” would be prosecuted and removed from the country.

He singled out certain cities in particular, including Boston, where Homan said criminals had been released back into communities instead of being transferred for deportation proceedings. “I’m coming to Boston,” he declared. “I’m bringing hell with me.”

Homan’s goal in these cities would be to track down offenders who had evaded federal action and ensure that “they’re locked back up.”

In addition to broader enforcement efforts, Homan suggested tapping into resources across multiple federal agencies to bolster arrests and prosecutions in areas with high violent crime. He noted that coordinated initiatives, including assistance from the United States Marshals Service and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, would supplement ICE operations that focus on guns, narcotics, and other serious offenses. By tightening interagency cooperation, Homan said, officials would ensure criminal suspects faced prosecution before deportation.

Homan stressed that moral imperatives and national security interests aligned in enforcing these laws, promising that with government backing, officials would keep the pace until “every criminal alien, every gang member” was apprehended and removed.
