Homan Says ICE Raids Are Moving Forward As Trump Enforces Immigration Laws

President Donald Trump’s border czar, Tom Homan, has confirmed that ICE operations are actively underway across the country, focusing on apprehending illegal immigrants with criminal backgrounds. During a recent interview, Homan dismissed claims that operations had been stalled, making it clear that agents are on the ground and executing their mission to protect public safety.

A previously planned operation in Chicago was temporarily put on hold due to a security breach, which raised concerns for the safety of ICE agents. Homan emphasized that while adjustments were made to the strategy, the operation remains a priority and will proceed with enhanced security measures.

The resumption of enforcement efforts aligns with Trump’s renewed commitment to secure the nation’s borders and crack down on individuals who pose threats to American communities. ICE agents are currently working from a targeted list, prioritizing those with criminal records and outstanding deportation orders.

Despite the delay in Chicago, Homan assured that enforcement efforts are continuing in sanctuary cities where local governments have resisted cooperation with federal authorities. Cities such as New York and Los Angeles remain key targets as ICE seeks to enforce federal immigration laws without interference.

Reports indicate that many illegal immigrants are attempting to avoid capture by vacating taxpayer-funded shelters and relocating. ICE has since implemented stricter operational security measures to prevent leaks and ensure successful operations.

In addition to these raids, the Trump administration is moving forward with new executive orders designed to close immigration loopholes and provide ICE with the necessary tools to fully enforce the law.
