Tom Homan continued his powerful media tour as incoming ‘Border Czar’ for Donald Trump with an emotional speech at Turning Point’s AmericaFest in Phoenix.
Homan, 63, is seen as a potential star in the Trump administration as he forcefully argues on behalf of the president-elect’s mass deportation programs.
Speaking in Arizona on Sunday, he delivered several expletives and his voice began to crack in defense of his America first rhetoric that will soon become policy.
‘People always ask me why I take this so seriously. People say Tom Homan’s a racist, Tom Homan’s an a**hole, say whatever you want, I don’t give a s***,’ he said to cheers from the crowd.
‘Why do I care? I’ve talked to little girls as young as 9 years old that we’re raped multiple times. When you look into a little girl’s eyes, 9 years old, who had adults take everything innocent and pure from her, you look in those eyes, those eyes have no life in them, their life will never be the same.’
He angrily concluded: ‘That’s what p***es me off!”
Homan then talked about what the Biden administration’s disastrous policies took away from the country.
‘President Trump had us locked down! This administration came in and unlocked it! People die at the border every day! Women are sex trafficked every day! That’s what p***es me off!’

He then referred to Trump’s victory over Kamala Harris in November as ‘the best day of my life.’
‘To save lives. A secure border saves lives! It isn’t rocket science,’ he concluded.
The border czar has gone anywhere and everywhere to promote Trump’s immigration crackdown, from the border itself to mainstream media to liberal ‘sanctuary’ cities like New York and Chicago.
Homan, the former acting head of Immigration and Customs Enforcement during Trump’s first term, has made clear what Trump’s policies come January 20, 2025, will be.
‘If you are in the country illegally, and you’ve got orders for deportation, were going to arrest you, detain you and remove you,’ he told CNN earlier this week.
‘Having a child in this country does not make you immune to our laws.’
He argued that if the parents were found to be in the country illegally, had court orders to be removed and were evading deportation, they need to be held accountable in accordance with current laws.
Letting parents stay because their children were born in the U.S. means ‘the court order doesn’t mean anything anymore,’ Homan reasoned.

Homan said he wants to arrest as many people as he can with the resources they have, and added that there are millions of fugitives within the U.S. who are pending arrest.
‘We want to arrest as many people as we can that are in the country illegally,’ he said. ‘We want to arrest every criminal, every gang member … If you’re here illegally, you’re not off the table.’
Earlier in the week Homan spoke to Tucker Carlson about the possibility of sending migrants to ‘rich, white’ neighborhoods.
Carlson asked the incoming border czar on his X show Wednesday night: ‘Is there anyway to move millions of Haitians into rich, white, liberal, neighborhoods?’
‘The people who did this are rich, white liberals in the United States who hate themselves and the country and to punish it, they invited all these people illegally from failed countries but they can’t stand the idea of living near these people because they’re racist,’ Carlson said.
Homan responded: ‘We absolutely could do it. Martha’s Vineyard did it!’
Martha’s Vineyard, in particular, was one of the many liberal enclaves migrants were sent via bus by Republican governors in an attempt to ease the burden of their arrival on their states, a point Homan celebrated.
AmericaFest is put on by Turning Point USA, which advocates for conservative values on High School and College campuses and helps mobilize young and future voters.
