President Donald Trump announced that he’s sending his designated “border czar” Tom Homan to oversee the ongoing immigration crackdown in Minnesota.
The administration has been hit with blowback after U.S. Customs and Border Patrol officers killed two 37-year-old observers — Renee Good and Alex Pretti – in the past three weeks as federal agents attempt to detain undocumented migrants, and the president responded by announcing Homan’s deployment to the area.
“I am sending Tom Homan to Minnesota tonight,” Trump posted Monday morning on Truth Social. “He has not been involved in that area, but knows and likes many of the people there. Tom is tough but fair, and will report directly to me.”
CNN’s John Berman asked, ” Does that feel like he’s cutting out Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem?”
Agents have surged to the Minneapolis area after a right-wing influencer posted viral videos about alleged social service agency fraud by Somali immigrants, and Trump said the Department of Justice was investigating whether Rep. Ilhan Oma (D-MN), a frequent target of his criticism, was involved in those schemes.
“Separately, a major investigation is going on with respect to the massive 20 Billion Dollar, Plus, Welfare Fraud that has taken place in Minnesota, and is at least partially responsible for the violent organized protests going on in the streets,” Trump posted. “Additionally, the DOJ and Congress are looking at ‘Congresswoman’ Illhan Omar, who left Somalia with NOTHING, and is now reportedly worth more than 44 Million Dollars. Time will tell all. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DJT”
