The cabinet of the second administration of Donald Trump in the USA begins to form. Tom Homanwho was part of his first government, now he was designated as the “border czar”. This, in response to two of the main proposals of the Republican candidacy: immigration and violence derived from drug trafficking.
Homan will be in charge of “all deportations of illegal aliens,” Trump added. referring to the undocumented.
Homan directed the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in the first government of Trump and is considered the “father” of the strategy to separate nearly 4,000 migrant children from their parentswho were detained. The scandal became huge when it was revealed that the government did not know the whereabouts of many of these minors nor was there a reunification plan.
In an interview on the 60 Minutes program, Homan was questioned about the cost of deporting a million people, estimated at 80 billion dollars a year. Although Homan He said he did not know if that figure was accurate, he added: “What price do you put on national security?”

Homan He is also one of the authors of the so-called Project 2025of which Trump he distanced himself, but whose lines of action, analysts warn, his administration would follow as of January 20, 2025, when he assumes the presidency.
The idea of Project 2025 is to give Trump more power; includes plans in Department of Homeland Security to carry out more deportations and deploy more military on the southern border of the United States. It even gives the agents of the ICE power to enter areas such as schools and churches in search of undocumented immigrants.
The plan for a second presidency of Trump includes the dismantling of the Federal Emergency Management Agencythe repeal of parts of the Affordable Care Act and further restricting access to reproductive health care by asking the Food and Drug Administration what rescind its approval of mifepristone and misoprostoltwo drugs used in pharmacological abortion.
Homan It’s part of all that. “If Trump returns in January, I will be with him and lead the largest deportation force this country has ever seen.“Homan said on a panel at the National Conservatism Conference in July, according to David Weigel of Semafor. “You haven’t seen shit yet… Wait until 2025.”
Then, during the Republican National Conventionwent further and issued two specific threats. One against migrants and another against drug trafficking cartels.
To the undocumented, he said: “You better start packing now, because you’re coming home.“.
To drug traffickers, he warned: I have a message for the criminal cartels in Mexico. They have trafficked enough fentanyl into this country to kill 148,000 young Americans. They have killed more Americans than all the terrorist organizations in the world combined, and When President Trump returns to office, he is going to classify them as terrorist organizations. He is going to erase them from the face of the Earth.
