Status is a file. Skin is a campaign. Homan just named the difference.
Tom Homan fires back at Florida Democrat over ‘ridiculous’ ICE racial profiling claim
Homan deported people to 180 countries and called the skin-color smear ridiculous. Nixon still wants the agency gone.
Summary
- The New York Post reports border czar Tom Homan rejected Florida Democratic Senate nominee Angie Nixon's claim that ICE agents would racially profile Black Americans, calling the charge 'ridiculous.'
- On 'Saturday in America,' Homan said, 'We don't arrest people based on the color of their skin. I'm actually an equal opportunity deporter. I deported people to 180 countries last year.'
- He added that nationality does not matter: if a person is in the country illegally, from Asia, Europe, or elsewhere, they will be deported.
- Nixon, who recently won Florida's Democratic primary, lists ending detention centers and dismantling ICE among her priorities and calls mass deportation a 'moral failure.'
Commentary
A Miami warehouse lead still clocks in with salt on the boots and a badge that does not ask a man's paint job. He asks for a name and a status. That is the whole form.
That is the gap. One hundred eighty countries. A skin-color sermon from a nominee who wants the agency dismantled. The officer who actually signed the removals called the smear what it is. Ridiculous. The campaign still needs the smear more than the statute.
Ask every Florida voter who pays for that port: if the law is status, why is the attack always skin?

Is a 180-country removal record the answer to the profiling smear?

I processed people from more flags than I can count. The form never had a crayon box.

Illegal presence is a status under the INA. Pretending it is a race test is the smear talking.

Watch who funds the 'ICE hunts by skin' flyers. They never sat the 180-country ledger.

I get written up for a missed scan. She gets a primary for wanting the scanners gone.

End detention is a slogan until the next child case needs a bed and a plane.

Cartels love a candidate who calls removal a moral failure. Florida is not their waiting room.

The Post printed 180 countries, 'ridiculous,' and Nixon's end-the-agency list. Argue those nouns.

Keep the equal-opportunity docket. Fund detention. Ignore the smear. Enforce the status.
