Homan in Minnesota: ICE Surge Operation Will Conclude, ‘Significant Drawdown’ has Started

Just send in Border Czar Tom Homan. Don’t bother with DHS Secretary Kristi Noem. Just use Homan.

President Donald Trump sent Homan to Minnesota on January 26. It’s February 12. That’s two weeks.

Homan accomplished more in two weeks than Noem did in months. No drama. No theatrics.

Homan announced that the ICE surge in Minnesota will conclude:

With that and success that has been made arresting public safety threats and other priorities since this surge operation began, as well as the unprecedented levels of coordination we have obtained from state officials and local law enforcement, I have proposed and President Trump has concurred that this surge operation conclude.A significant drawdown has already been underway this week and will continue through the next week.We have a lot of work to do across this country to remove public safety risks who shouldn’t even be in this country and to deliver on President Trump’s promise for strong border security, mass deportation.Law enforcement officers drawing down from this surge operation will either return to the duty station or be assigned elsewhere to achieve just that.

Under Homan, ICE located thousands of unaccompanied kids:

In addition to taking public safety threats off the street, ICE here in this state, have located 3364 missing unaccompanied alien children, children that the last administration lost and weren’t even looking for.

Homan touted the differences made in Minnesota. It’s amazing what happens when you sit down and talk like adults:

We now have the ability to arrest criminal aliens in the safety and security of jails throughout the state. At the time they’re being released, like we’ve done in other states, I’ve also directed the strategic placement of officers in certain areas throughout the states that can respond quickly to sheriffs that want to release somebody and notify us. We need to be nearby so they don’t hold them unnecessarily.So we worked on a strategic plan to reassign officers in those key locations arresting a public safety threat and the safety and security of a jail is safer for the alien, it’s safer for the officer, and safer for the community. I think we all can agree on that it requires less resources throughout large operations. It just makes sense.I’ll say it again. As I said many times, we are not asking local law enforcement to act as immigration officers. I don’t want them to be immigration officers. We’re the immigration officers. We just want them to be cops.We’re asking law enforcement to coordinate with other law enforcement to help keep public safety risks out of the communities.
