Tom Homan, President-elect Donald Trump’s incoming “border czar,” is publicly calling out Denver Mayor Mike Johnston over the city’s sanctuary policies.
Johnston (D) initially upped the rhetoric when he declared his readiness to go to jail to protect undocumented immigrants from Trump’s planned mass deportations.
In fact, he declared he would instruct Denver law enforcement to defend illegals in the city and compared such a move to Tiananmen Square.
“More than us having DPD stationed at the county line to keep them out, you would have 50,000 Denverites there,” Johnston told the Denverite in an interview. “It’s like the Tiananmen Square moment with the rose and the gun, right?
Homan, in response, stated on “Hannity” on Fox News that he would be willing to put Johnston in jail for obstructing federal immigration enforcement.
Tom Homan Turns The Tables
Border Czar Tom Homan blasted the Denver mayor and emphasized that local jurisdictions are “absolutely breaking the law” by not complying with federal mandates.
“All he has to do is look at Arizona v. U.S., and he would see he’s breaking the law,” Homan said.
Some might even call it an insurrection.
“But, look, me and the Denver mayor, we agree on one thing,” added Homan. “He’s willing to go to jail, I’m willing to put him in jail.”

Moved To Tears
Tom Homan has consistently been a bada** when commenting on the Biden-Harris border crisis. Oh, and he also served under both President Trump and Obama. So he’s seen quite a bit. He was executive associate director of ICE under Barack.
But even the hardest of men are sometimes overcome with emotions over the victims of the border crisis.
“I have talked to little girls as young as 9 years old that were raped multiple times by members of the cartel,” he told Laura Ingraham recently, eyes looking off to the side to fight off tears. “When you look in their eyes, and everything innocent and pure has been ripped from their soul, and their life will never be the same, I’m just — I’m tired of it.”

Homan, though, isn’t the only person who suggests Johnston’s comments could lead to his removal.
Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) recently said Johnston’s resistance would be futile.
“The mayor of Denver, if he’s going to resist federal law, which is a long-standing history of the supremacy of federal law, if he’s going to resist that, it will go all the way to the Supreme Court,” Paul stated.
“I would suspect that he would be removed from office. I don’t know whether or not there’d be a criminal prosecution for someone resisting federal law, but he will lose,” he warned.
Johnston would later walk back the comments.
