Border czar Tom Homan has warned that anyone leaking sensitive information about upcoming ICE operations will face serious consequences, including jail time, job loss, and criminal prosecution. Speaking on Fox News, Homan accused the FBI of being behind leaks that compromised the secrecy of a major ICE raid in California and operations in Colorado. He emphasized that such leaks endanger the lives of ICE agents by potentially alerting criminals ahead of raids.
Homan revealed that a criminal investigation is underway, with the Deputy Attorney General confirming that the leaks could be treated as felonies under federal law. He stressed that if anyone is found deliberately sabotaging ICE operations, they will face harsh penalties including loss of their pension and imprisonment. Homan expressed frustration that these leaks undermine federal law enforcement and hamper the Department of Homeland Security’s ability to enforce immigration laws effectively.
The controversy comes amid political tensions, with some Democrats advising constituents on how to handle ICE encounters, which Republicans criticize as obstructing immigration enforcement. Republican lawmakers have condemned such advice, accusing Democrats of aiding illegal immigrants and undermining the Trump administration’s immigration agenda.
Homan’s firm stance reflects the administration’s renewed commitment to strict immigration enforcement and deterring interference with ICE operations. He made clear that protecting the safety of officers and the integrity of raids is a top priority, and anyone leaking information will be held fully accountable under the law. The investigation continues as federal agencies work to identify the sources of the leaks and prevent future breaches.
