Border Czar Tom Homan on Monday vowed to continue operations in New York City and other sanctuary cities as the Trump administration pursues legal action against Los Angeles and other cities vow not to work with federal law enforcement.
“We’re going to be in New York City and President Trump said it two weeks ago,” Homan told reporters. “We’re going to double down and triple down on sanctuary cities. Why? Not because they’re a blue city or a blue state… because we know that’s where the problem is.”
“They’re releasing public safety threats and national security threats to the streets every day,” he said. “We know that. We don’t have that problem in Florida, where every sheriff in the state is working with us.”
“I’ve set it before, we’ll flood the zone on sanctuary cities,” he concluded.
Homan’s remarks follow the passage of the One Big, Beautiful Bill Act, which authorized additional funds to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to hire as many as 10,000 new agents.
Trump himself has vowed to deport as many as 21 million illegal aliens.
