FROM WASHINGTON EXAMINER:Border czar Tom Homan got into a heated exchange with MSNBC host Mika Brzezinski on Morning Joe Tuesday, pushing back against accusations that Immigration and Customs Enforcement had “disappeared” people during immigration enforcement actions.
The fiery interview began when Brzezinski pressed Homan about whether immigrants with jobs, driver’s licenses, and children serving in the United States military should be treated as criminals if they lack legal status.
Homan emphasized that “if they’re in the country illegally, that is not okay.”
Homan argued that immigration violations are not “victimless crimes,” stressing that “millions of people [are] standing in line, doing the background investigation, paying the fees” to come legally, while others “cheated the system.”
“You using the term ‘disappearing people’ is disgusting,” Homan said. “US citizens get arrested everyday. Are they being disappeared? No, laws are being enforced.”
Eric Daugherty, Assistant News Director for Florida Voice News, posted his assessment of the interview on X.
“HOLY CRAP! Tom Homan LIGHTS UP MSNBC, has Mika tripping over herself due to all the lying!” Daugherty wrote.
He posted the following transcript of the exchange:
HOMAN: I see on the show this morning you have Governor Healey talking about ICE doing enforcement operations at a church. FALSE. Didn’t happen.
MIKA: No, they were parked there. She said they were parked in a public space.
HOMAN: But to say that and to push that out there puts fear in the immigrant community!
MIKA: No, to do that puts fear in the community!
HOMAN: They’re on a public street waiting to respond to a criminal alien being released! […] Aggravated rape! […] Aggravated assault on a pregnant victim!
Homan went on to list heinous allegations against several suspects arrested by ICE, and said local leaders should be thanking agents for removing these dangerous individuals from their streets.
