凤凰城讯——
白宫边境事务主管汤姆·霍曼周二驳斥了总统唐纳德·特朗普支持者中的批评者，这些人认为本届政府驱逐非法移民的力度不够。同时他誓言，将向那些通过立法限制与联邦执法机构合作的司法管辖区“大举增派”移民执法人员。
在凤凰城边境安全博览会上，霍曼态度强硬，在场的有国土安全部官员和行业从业者。他发誓“大规模驱逐的承诺一定会兑现”。
“那些在外面叫嚣‘特朗普总统在大规模驱逐问题上变得软弱’的人，根本不知道自己在说什么，”霍曼将这类反对者称为“键盘侠”。
霍曼表示，他当天早些时候已与国土安全部部长马克韦恩·马林会面，讨论政府“未来几个月”的行动计划。
“你们还什么都没看到呢，”霍曼说，“今年会是不错的一年。大规模驱逐即将到来。”
霍曼在凤凰城博览会上的此番言论发表之际，民调显示美国民众对本届政府的强硬移民打击政策日益不满。在此背景下，国土安全部试图在马林的领导下，采取更有针对性、更低调的方式推进移民政策和执法行动，这与前任部长克里斯蒂·诺姆任期内的做法截然不同。
在诺姆担任国土安全部部长期间，移民执法人员在芝加哥、明尼阿波利斯和洛杉矶等城市开展了高调且往往缺乏针对性的行动，几乎每天都引发争议。这些行动频繁遭到民众抗议，其中包括两名美国公民在反对移民执法人员行动时被枪杀，其中一人是明尼阿波利斯的退伍军人护士亚历克斯·普雷蒂。
在第二名美国公民——退伍军人护士亚历克斯·普雷蒂——被移民执法人员枪杀后，特朗普派遣霍曼前往明尼阿波利斯，取代负责此次行动的边境巡逻官员格雷戈里·博维诺，以平息事态。
CNN今年3月曾报道，本届政府一直在寻求其他方式淡化移民执法行动的公开宣传。据一位知情人士向CNN透露，白宫副幕僚长詹姆斯·布莱尔曾要求共和党人将重点放在驱逐罪犯上，而非“大规模驱逐”。
霍曼周二表示，打击犯罪和维护公共安全“必须是优先事项”。但他补充道，优先驱逐罪犯并不意味着其他非法入境者“可以置身事外”。
“这有什么道理可言？”霍曼说，“不管你在这里待了多久，只要你非法入境，你就是在作弊。你在欺骗整个系统。”
霍曼承认，在特朗普第二任期内被捕的无证移民中，有35%至40%没有犯罪记录，但他表示，此举有必要“向全世界传递一个信号”。
他誓言将向那些通过立法限制州和地方警察与联邦移民当局合作的州派遣大量移民执法人员：“我们将大举增派人员。你会看到前所未有的ICE（移民海关执法局）探员数量。”
霍曼表示，届时所谓的“附带逮捕”——即那些并非移民执法目标、只是在行动发生时身处该区域的人员——也“会被一并逮捕”。
“你会看到这些地区的附带逮捕人数增加，”他说，“你会看到更多探员出现在你的社区，因为你们把我们逼到了这个地步。”
纽约州民主党州长凯西·霍楚尔是因移民政策遭到特朗普政府批评的州之一，她周二对霍曼的言论作出了尖锐回应。
“我对霍曼先生要说的是，唐纳德·特朗普自己也说过，除非我提出要求，否则他不会向纽约州增派ICE探员。我现在就不会提，”她说。
霍曼誓言将专注于这项使命，直至生命最后一刻——无论他是否继续在政府中任职，也无论人们如何评价他。
“我根本不在乎人们怎么看我，”霍曼说，“我从来没有在乎过，以后也不会。”

Defiant border czar brushes away MAGA critics, says ‘mass deportations are coming’

Phoenix—
White House border czar Tom Homan on Tuesday brushed off critics within President Donald Trump’s base who say the administration is not deporting enough people, while vowing to “flood the zone” with immigration officers in jurisdictions which pass legislation limiting cooperation with federal enforcement.
Speaking at the Border Security Expo in Phoenix, a room filled with Department of Homeland Security officials and industry personnel, a defiant Homan vowed that the “mass deportation promise will happen.”
“For the people out there saying ‘President Trump’s getting weak on mass deportation,’ you don’t know what the hell you’re talking about,” Homan said, referring to such naysayers as “keyboard warriors.”
Homan said he spoke with Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin earlier in the morning to discuss what the administration will do “in the next couple of months.”
“You ain’t seen shit yet,” Homan said. “This year will be a good year. Mass deportations are coming.”
Homan’s comments at the Phoenix expo, a typically friendly room where administration officials tend to be slightly more unguarded in their remarks than they are other at other public appearances or during press conferences, come as DHS seeks to take a more targeted and low-key approach with its agenda and operations under Mullin than it had under former Secretary Kristi Noem amid public polling showing Americans souring at the administration’s aggressive crackdown.
Noem’s tenure at DHS saw near daily controversies as immigration officers carried out highly public, and often unfocused, operations in cities like Chicago, Minneapolis and Los Angeles. These operations drew frequent protests from citizens, including two Americans who were shot and killed while opposing the actions of immigration officers who had been deployed in Minneapolis.
Following the second killing of an American citizen, VA nurse Alex Pretti, by immigration officers, Trump deployed Homan to Minneapolis to replace Gregory Bovino, the Border Patrol official who had overseen the deployment, and turn down the temperature.
CNN reported in March that the administration has sought other ways to soften the public messaging surrounding its immigration operations. James Blair, the White House deputy chief of staff, told Republicans to focus on the removal of criminals rather than “mass deportations,” a source familiar with the discussion told CNN.
Homan on Tuesday said criminal and public safety threats “have to be the priority.” But he added that the prioritization of criminals does not mean everybody else is “off the table.”
“Why is that?” Homan said. “I don’t care how long you’ve been here, if you’re here illegally, entered this country illegally, you cheated. You cheated the system.”
Conceding that 35% to 40% of the undocumented immigrations who have been arrested during Trump’s second term have no criminal record, Homan said that was necessary to “send a message to the whole world.”
He vowed to send masses of immigration officers to states that enact legislation limiting cooperation between state and local police and federal immigration authorities: “We’re going to flood the zone. You’re going to see more ICE agents [than] you ever seen before.”
When that happens, Homan said, so-called collaterals – people who weren’t targets of immigration officers but happened to be in the area when an operation takes place, are “coming too.”
“You will see collateral arrests increase in these areas,” he said. “You see more agents in your neighborhoods, because you forced us in this position.”
Democratic Gov. Kathy Hochul of New York, one of the states that has drawn Trump administration criticism for its immigration policies, reacted sharply Tuesday to Homan’s comments.
“All I’ll say to Mr. Homan is that Donald Trump himself said he would not send a surge of ICE agents to the state of New York unless I ask. I’m not asking,” she said.
Homan vowed to be focused on this mission until his dying breath – regardless of whether he continues to hold a position within the administration, or what is said about him.
“I simply don’t care what people think about me,” Homan said. “I never have and never will.”
