Homan Swats Away Threats to His Life: ‘Come Get Some’
Border Czar Tom Homan delivered a blunt message Friday to left-wing critics and cartel-linked enemies who have threatened his life over the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown.
“Come get some.”
Homan made the remark during a speech at the Faith & Freedom Coalition’s Road to Majority Conference in Washington, D.C., where he laid out what he described as President Donald Trump’s historic progress in reversing the damage caused by former President Joe Biden’s open-border policies.
Homan said the administration has already made major gains on deportations and border security, but warned that even more enforcement is coming.
“We had a historic year with deportations, but now we got 10,000 more agents on board, or should be on board, by the end of next month,” he said.
“Wait till next year.”
Homan also acknowledged that he routinely receives death threats and cannot travel without security. But he made clear that intimidation will not stop him from carrying out Trump’s immigration agenda.
During the speech, Homan recalled the conversation he had with Trump when the president asked him to return and serve as border czar.
Trump, according to Homan, told him, “You’ve been bitching about [illegal immigration] for four years, you want to come fix it?”
Homan said the answer was obvious.
“How do you say ‘no’ to that?”
The immigration chief also rejected left-wing claims that Trump’s border policies are “inhumane,” arguing that the opposite is true.
“I don’t want to hear another damn word about President Trump being inhumane,” Homan said during his speech.
“He’s saving lives every day. There’s been studies done that 31 percent of women — and these studies are done by independent groups — up to 31 percent of women that make that journey coming to the United States get sexually assaulted,” he continued.
Homan said the human cost of illegal migration is often ignored by Democrats and their media allies.
“Thirty-one percent admitted they got sexually assault in making that journey. If 31 admitted it, how many is that, how many is that number, really?” he asked.
He then argued that Trump’s border enforcement has dramatically reduced the suffering tied to illegal migration.
“So when President Trump has illegal migration down 97 percent, how many women aren’t being raped? How many children aren’t dying making that journey? How many known suspected terrorists aren’t coming into the country? How many pounds of fentanyl isn’t coming across the border to kill Americans?” Homan said.
“President Trump is saving thousands of lives every month, but no one wants to talk about it,” he added.
Earlier this year, Homan explained why he returned to government service to help Trump regain control of the border.
In February, Homan spoke with Breitbart Editor-in-Chief Alex Marlow about the human and social costs of policies that encourage mass illegal immigration.
Homan began his career with the U.S. Border Patrol in 1984 before rising through the Department of Homeland Security and becoming the first director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
Over decades of service, he built a reputation as one of the country’s strongest voices for serious border enforcement and immigration control.
Homan served under six presidents, beginning with Ronald Reagan, and was long viewed as a nonpartisan law enforcement professional across both Republican and Democratic administrations.
But under Trump, Homan has become one of the most recognizable faces of the administration’s border-security agenda.
Asked by Marlow about the threats and daily attacks against him, Homan said he refuses to be intimidated.
“I don’t care,” Homan said.
“I mean, this is the second time I came out of retirement for the president. It’s hard to say no to the president of the United States and help him fix something where thousands of lives have been lost,” he said.
Homan said he knew the attacks would come with the job, but that his family has paid a heavy price.
“So I knew the hate was coming. And, you know, unfortunately, my family pays the price,” Homan continued.

“I haven’t lived with my family in months because of the death threats against me. But my family understands the important mission,” he added.
For conservatives, Homan’s message cuts through the political noise surrounding the border debate.
The issue is not only immigration law.
It is human trafficking, cartel violence, fentanyl deaths, national security, and the safety of American communities.
While Democrats accuse Trump of being cruel, Homan argues that weak border policies are what truly endanger vulnerable migrants and American citizens alike.
His warning to the cartels and their defenders was unmistakable: the Trump administration is not backing down.
More agents are coming.
More deportations are coming.
And the border crackdown is only beginning.
