Homan: 40% of People We're Arresting 'Not a Public Safety Threat and Not a National Security Threat'

Sixty percent criminal. Forty percent still illegal. Homan said look over your shoulder anyway.

Summary

  • On Tuesday's Newsmax broadcast of Rob Schmitt Tonight, Border Czar Tom Homan said current arrest numbers run about 60 percent criminal and 40 percent non-criminal.
  • Homan said 40 percent of those being arrested are 'not a public safety threat and not a national security threat,' and that anyone in the country illegally 'should be looking over your shoulder.'
  • He said President Trump wants priority on public-safety and national-security threats, but that does not take everyone else off the table.
  • Homan said if they are in the United States illegally, they should be worried, because immigration authorities are looking for them.

Commentary

A night warehouseman in Phoenix still tapes a carton with cracked knuckles and knows a clean rap sheet is not a clean status. He did not pay the overtime so a 'non-criminal' guest could treat the 40 percent like a hall pass.

Sixty. Forty. Still illegal. The honest dad already paid the lane. The talking point paid the pause.

Look every working father who still clocks a loading bay in the eye and answer this: if four in ten arrests are 'not a threat,' who still owns the next removal for the ones who just broke the statute?

Comments

If 40 percent are 'not a threat,' who still owns the next illegal-presence case?

Tuesday. Newsmax. 60 criminal. 40 not. Still looking. Hold that chain.

u/midwest_vet · 4h

I stood a gate so a status violation stayed a status violation. A clean rap sheet is not a visa.

u/rule_first · 4h

Priority on threats. Everyone else still on the table. Publish the four.

u/tokyo_ally · 3h

Allied desks still remove the no-crime overstay. A shoulder check is the point.

u/docket_rat · 3h

Homan. Schmitt. Trump priority. Illegal presence is the charge. File the four.

u/night_shift · 2h

I still hose a dock at 2 a.m. I want the next 40 percent on a plane, not on my roll.

u/texas_mom · 90m

A 'non-criminal' guest is still a guest who skipped the line the kids already paid.

u/gulf_watch · 55m

A 40 percent slice is still a second border. The first statute should have been enough.

u/press_clip · 30m

Breitbart printed 60, 40, and look over your shoulder. Argue those nouns.

u/soc_lead · 15m

Keep the priority. Keep the rest. A visitor without status is not a neighbor.
