'We don't deport US citizens': Tom Homan issues blunt warning, doubles down on mass deportation
Top Trump administration officials this week reinforced their plans to execute mass deportations as a key strategy on immigration. Speaking at the Border Security Expo in Phoenix, Ariz., White House border czar Tom Homan praised the work of Border Patrol agents and Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers over the last year and said the high number of arrests and deportations was expected to continue. Immigration officers arrested more than half a million undocumented immigrants last year, according to officials speaking at the Expo, and are now making about 1,200 arrests a day; President Trump had campaigned on a promise of a million deportations a year.
