Summary

Tom Homan, President-elect Trump’s designated “border czar,” visited the U.S.-Mexico border with Texas Governor Greg Abbott, vowing to implement a “mass deportation” plan in response to the immigration crisis.

Homan stated that planning is already underway for the incoming administration to secure the border at unprecedented levels.

Abbott highlighted Texas’ Operation Lone Star, which deployed troops and barriers but faces criticism over costs and humanitarian concerns.

Homan, a key architect of Trump’s prior immigration policies, emphasized strict enforcement, despite opposition from city mayors and federal lawsuits challenging state immigration actions.
