President Trump’s border czar issued a stark warning to Democrats who recently stormed a Newark, New Jersey, ICE facility in the name of an “oversight” visit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tom Homan’s warning<\/a> came days after Democratic officials allegedly stormed the ICE facility <\/p>\n\n\n\n “If you cannot support ICE, shame on you. If you can support\u00a0sanctuary cities, shame on you, but you can’t cross that line,” Homan said Wednesday, railing against the Democrats during an appearance on “Kudlow.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n “When you cross a line of impediment, when you cross the line of knowingly harboring and concealing an illegal alien, when you criminally trespass one of our facilities, we will ask the attorney general to prosecute you.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n “You can’t cross that line of impediment,” he continued.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Homan\u00a0previously responded “yes”\u00a0when asked by a reporter if the lawmakers implicated in the situation should face censure or removal of their committee assignments.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n He also told Kudlow he had been in touch with Trump counselor Alina Habba, the acting U.S. attorney for the district of New Jersey, regarding the matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n “Alina’s taking it seriously, going through a lot of videotape, talking to a lot of witnesses, and we’ll see where the investigation falls,” Homan shared.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n He proceeded to blast the lawmakers as “very inappropriate” and “unprofessional,” stressing the need to control a facility containing “dangerous” illegal immigrant criminals for the safety of all parties \u2013 the detainees, officers and the public.<\/p>\n\n\n\n “Squad” Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) recently offered a specific warning to DHS officials, including Homan and\u00a0Sec. Kristi Noem, regarding Democratic officials entangled in the news.<\/p>\n\n\n\n “You lay a finger on [New Jersey Congresswoman] Bonnie Watson Coleman or any of the representatives that were there \u2013 you lay a finger on them, and we\u2019re going to have a problem,” Ocasio-Cortez said on Instagram.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Homan dismissed the rhetoric, saying the New York Democrat “doesn’t know what she’s talking about” and that he has much more knowledge and experience in the border security realm than she does.<\/p>\n\n\n\n House Republicans have introduced measures to punish the Democrats involved in the altercation, including a censure\u00a0resolution<\/a>\u00a0against Rep. LaMonica McIver, another lawmaker from New Jersey who was at the protest, and a\u00a0resolution<\/a>\u00a0to strip them of their committee assignments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
