US President-elect Donald Trump has announced the appointment of former Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Director Tom Homan as the incoming administration’s “Border Czar.”
In this role, Homan will oversee national border security and manage the deportation of undocumented immigrants.
Trump expressed confidence in Homan’s capabilities, stating, “I am pleased to announce that the Former ICE Director, and stalwart on Border Control, Tom Homan, will be joining the Trump Administration, in charge of our Nation’s Borders.”
Homan, who served as acting ICE director from January 2017 to June 2018, has been a prominent advocate for stringent immigration enforcement policies.
His tenure was marked by a significant increase in deportation arrests and the implementation of policies aimed at deterring illegal immigration.
His return to the administration signals a continuation of hardline immigration strategies.
In addition to Homan’s appointment, Trump had named Susie Wiles as his incoming White House Chief of Staff.
Wiles, who managed Trump’s successful 2024 presidential campaign, is recognized for her strategic expertise and leadership.
Her appointment marks the first time a woman will hold the position of White House Chief of Staff.
Wiles’ extensive experience in political consulting and her role in orchestrating Trump’s campaign are expected to influence the administration’s policy direction and operational efficiency.
Observers anticipate that Homan and Wiles will play pivotal roles in shaping the administration’s approach to border security and overall governance.
