Donald Trump’s border czar, Tom Homan, is warning sanctuary cities that Immigration officials are absolutely NOT going to back off the effort to arrest and deport illegals who live in those locales.
“I will work very hard with Secretary Noem to keep President Trump’s promise and his commitment several weeks ago that sanctuary cities are now our priority. We’re gonna flood the zone,” he said during a recent press conference.

He added:
I’ll say it again, sanctuary cities are sanctuaries for criminals, and I’m gonna work very hard with Secretary Noem to keep President Trump’s promise and his commitment several weeks ago that sanctuary cities are now our priority. We’re going to flood the zone. You don’t want to let us in the jail to arrest a bad guy in the safety and security of a jail; you want to release him into the street, which makes it unsafe for the community, makes it unsafe for the officer, and makes it unsafe for the alien. Anything can happen on a street arrest.
What we’re going to do, we’re gonna have more agents in your City to look for that bad guy, so sanctuary cities get exactly what they don’t want: More agents in the community and more agents in the worksite. If we can’t arrest that bad guy in the safety and security of county jail, we’re gonna arrest them in the community, and we’ll arrest them into jail, and when we arrest them in the community, if he’s with others that are in the country illegally, they’re coming too.
It seems as if we get another story of an illegal alien who has murdered, raped, or assaulted an American nearly every single day. And we also find out that these illegal aliens have been arrested half a dozen times or more, but Democrat infested states and cities released them over and over again.
