President-elect Donald Trump is wasting no time, putting together a dream team to take back control of our borders. Over the weekend, Trump announced the appointment of his former ICE chief Tom Homan as the new “border czar,” a move that has left the left-wing media clutching their pearls. Homan, a no-nonsense enforcer, will be responsible for handling the southern and northern borders, maritime security, and aviation – basically all points of entry. His mission? To put a halt to the chaos and lawlessness that defined the Biden-Harris administration’s border policy.
Trump made the announcement on Truth Social, praising Homan’s experience and dedication: “I am pleased to announce that the Former ICE Director, and stalwart on Border Control, Tom Homan, will be joining the Trump Administration, in charge of our Nation’s Borders,” he said. “I’ve known Tom for a long time, and there is nobody better at policing and controlling our Borders.” That’s right – with Homan in charge, you can bet this isn’t just talk. This is action, and it’s exactly what the American people voted for.
Elon Musk also chimed in to show his support, tweeting, “Congratulations @RealTomHoman on being given responsibility for enforcing our borders!” With an endorsement from one of the world’s top innovators, you know this appointment is being met with confidence from people who care about the country’s future.

For those concerned about the humanity of this operation, Homan made it clear on Fox News’ “Sunday Morning Futures” that ICE will carry out Trump’s deportation plans “in a humane manner” – without the military but with focus and precision. Homan explained, “It’s going to be a well-targeted, planned operation conducted by the men and women of ICE. They’re good at it.” This isn’t a slapdash response; it’s a calculated plan to get America’s borders under control while respecting human dignity.
And let’s not forget, Homan’s approach is rooted in the basic idea of consequence. When asked about handling family deportations, Homan put it plainly: “Of course, families can be deported together.” Democrats are squirming at the notion that law and order might actually be enforced. The Biden-Harris era saw people crossing illegally, only to turn themselves in and get released in record time. It’s no wonder Homan plans to prioritize deporting those who pose national security or public safety risks – something you’d think would be common sense, but not to those on the left.
Alongside Homan, Trump has made other powerhouse picks, including upstate New York Rep. Elise Stefanik as U.S. ambassador to the United Nations and Susie Wiles as chief of staff. With people like Homan, Stefanik, and Wiles by his side, it’s clear that Trump is putting together a team of real patriots who care about the safety and future of this country – a far cry from the incompetent leadership of the past four years.
For the folks who still think open borders and weak enforcement are the way to go, just wait until January 20th. Trump’s administration is getting back to the basics of protecting America and its people, a message Democrats simply can’t seem to understand. With Trump’s team in place, it’s full steam ahead to secure the border, uphold the law, and put America First.
