Border Czar Tom Homan Launches Borderline Racist Insult At MSNBC Host
HuffPost
Homan ignored the poor optics of disparaging the host in his defense of Trump's immigration crackdown.
Trump border czar Tom Homan got personal after MSNBC’s Joy Reid dismissed the wave of migrant arrests as “performative.”
“She’s dumber than a box of rocks,” Homan told Fox News host Jesse Watters on Tuesday. (Watch the video below.)
Homan hasn’t been shy in responding to criticism of the arrests, a cornerstone of President Donald Trump’s promise of mass deportations. The effort so far has reportedly focused on the undocumented immigrants who have been accused of serious crimes but is expected to go beyond that.
After Mexican-American actor Selena Gomez posted and then deleted a video of her sobbing over the raids earlier this week, Homan said bluntly, “No apologies.”
Reid, who had New York Attorney General Letitia James as a guest, called the raids “performative” and accused Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem of “cosplaying” during a recent Immigration and Customs Enforcement crackdown in New York City. Many of the highly publicized missions have been targeting sanctuary cities.
