Border Czar Tom Homan recounted two human trafficking cases that haunted him in an interview with podcaster Shawn Ryan in an episode of “The Shawn Ryan Show” released Thursday.
President Donald Trump announced Homan, a former acting director of United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), would serve as “border czar” Nov. 11, 2024. An emotional Homan told Ryan about what children had gone through in those cases.
“The thing that really, really affected me was two things: Number one, talking to a little girl about nine years old that was part of a small group who was raped multiple times by members of the criminal cartel nine years old,” Homan told Ryan. “Yeah, and let me tell you something as tough as guy you want to be when, when you sit down, get on your knees, you talk to this little girl and everything innocent, pure, even has been ripped from her, where you can tell that she has no faith in humanity.”
