Tom Homan Admits ICE Arrests Have Dropped 12%

As recently as December, I expected “mass deportations” would happen in 2026. The Big Beautiful Bill had passed Congress in June which included $75 billion in ICE funding. I had expected a slow start in 2025 because the funding was only passed over the summer and it was understandable that it would take time to hire and train thousands of ICE agents and build out infrastructure. I also thought there would be pressure on the GOP to deliver “mass deportations” before the midterms.

Washington Examiner:

“HOMAN: No, no, no, no. We just started. We just had, the first year’s a historic year, and we’re going to continue. President Trump committed in the four years he’s in office, we’re going to enforce immigration law at unprecedented levels, and it’s happening. Now a lot of people point that the numbers are down by 12% right now. Well, the government’s shut down, you know, ICE agents, Border Patrol agents, and what’s really hurting us is the contractor people, the people, the smart people that run all these different database checks. I can’t get into the weeds on it because law enforcement sensitive who provide our targeting. Here’s where you, here’s where you may want to find somebody that won’t want to be found based on all kinds of database runs, so that slowed down tremendously, because they weren’t getting paid, so you know it’s numbers are down slightly, but and I know there’s a lot of noise out there about you shouldn’t be just concentrating on criminals, you ought to be arresting everybody, but we are, I don’t know why people don’t understand, just because you prioritize public safety threats doesn’t mean you arrest somebody else’s. If you’ve got a public safety threat here to anon, you know, a non public safety. He has to go first. That’s just common sense, he’s the biggest danger to community. I looked at the numbers just this morning. I look at numbers every morning. We’re about 62% criminal, 38% noncriminal. So let’s say 60-40, 60 criminal, 40 noncriminal. I think that’s a pretty good mix. Would 40% criminal and 60% noncriminal be better? No. So the numbers prove, the numbers prove within itself that we’re arresting noncriminals, and I say the first year number is a record, and we’re continuing to do on that record, but President Trump has committed: mass deportations and no amnesty. …”

It will suffice to say that I was completely wrong.

I was operating from the assumption that Trump and the GOP would be focused on winning the midterms. Politicians are normally motivated by self interest. Instead, the focus has been on making Venezuela the 51st state, regime change in Cuba, the White House ballroom, Trump’s Arch of Triumph, driving up inflation to 6%, shattering Joe Biden’s record on gas prices and war with Iran for Israel. Trump has also focused his attention on purging various enemies in the party (Thomas Massie, John Cornyn, Thom Tillis, Bill Cassidy) thereby freeing them to obstruct and even further narrow his razor thin majority.

Abandoning “mass deportations” seems to be part of Trump’s plan to commit political suicide. It has gotten so bad that he is underwater in in White rural America. There was a new poll out yesterday which showed Trump dropping to 31%. Gallup is reporting a ten point spread in party ID. Trump is dragging down the GOP so badly that JD Vance and Marco Rubio would lose in a landslide to Kamala Harris.

    They are, but they’ve shifted gears. Instead of a slow trickle of payoffs they’ve gone too ‘loot it now’ and f the future.

  3. Gonorrhea and syphilis skyrocket in Europe … Nypost

    What could be the cause, I just can’t imagine.

    Incidentally, there’s a new strain of syphilis largely concentrated in the Detroit and Atlanta areas. Evidently our diverse society is proving to be a great incubator for wonderful new diseases, which our obsolete media does nothing to inform us.

    • > How we need our own media and communities !

      This is something Vox Day and Andrew Torba have been saying for years. Yet what do we see with most white folks, even those on our side – going back to all of the same enemy-owned places for media, shopping, etc. We have to create our own ecosystems and at the same time prevent entry from the usual suspects and those aligned with them. Look at what’s going down in Arkansas (Return to the Land) right now with some Jewish coalburner. Stalin was correct: With a person there is always a problem. No person – no problem. In order for anything like RTL to work, there has to be an enforcement arm who is willing to use any all means to enforce the rule – irrespective of how ugly and unpleasant that might be.

  4. As Senator from OK, Markwayne Mullin voted to continue welfare to Haitian invaders – even though Trump allegedly opposed this, even issued an EO to cut the payments off. Trump’s appointment of that complete retard shows that he’s either incompetent to remain in office and should be removed via the 25th amendment or he’s just a typical backstabbing member of the R-jersey team. The whole shift from actually doing something about the open borders to going off to fight wars for Israel has been political suicide for the R-jerseys.

    • He is both incompetent and a backstabber. Markwayne(the white version of a retarded nigger name) is a good goy on board with team Zion, so he gets promoted by Chump. Meanwhile, real decent men like Massie get purged.

  9. Back to the interesting subject of important and destructive folks Hitler and crew totally failed to eliminate, consider the case of the most important founding father of today’s monstrous EUSSR – Count Richard von Coudenhove-Kalergi. Contrary to the linked twitter post, Kalergi was not Jewish (unless he was very effectively hiding his ancestry). Nevertheless, his grand vision is one shared by the entire ruling oligarchy of the west, with the possible (and dubious) exception of Elon Musk:

    Here’s Kalgergi’s statement from 1925:
    “We intend to turn Europe and North America into a mixed mongrel race of Asians and Negros ruled over by Jews”

    That statement alone should have earned him a very fast trip to a Gestapo cellar where he could have been dispatched to his eternal reward via a Broomhandle Mauser round to the back of the skull. Ditto for his wife and son. Yet they all amazingly survived the third reich and lived on to see their dream of European extermination start to become a reality – the great replacement was just beginning. He finally went to his eternal reward in 1972, long after the Austrian painter vanished into an ash-heap.

    Your can read a hagiographic article about the genocidal POS over at Wokepedia. Jared Taylor has been attempting to paint this utter monster as something else over at AR as well.

    Kalergi himself was the product of miscegenation.

  10. Well I am one of the folks that is now a Democrat.

    As a Union worker for years I argued with other rank and file members about the goodness of economic protectionism and tariffs. ‘But all those long shoremen will lose their jobs!’

    Now Trump has so badly implemented tariffs and has been so poor on the economy that I have just thrown up my hands and Gone Blue!

    In fact I despise the Orange One so much that I started donating to my Unions PAC!

    I wonder how much losing small dollar donors (small business owner types) will hurt the MIGA Republicans this mid-term?

    • You don’t have money for yourself but you waste your money on a union pac? I have worked in unions all my life and never donated to their pepsi donors. Ideological I would say. Spend the money on yourself and get rid of the guilt trip. They’re entire purpose is supposed to make you more money, not the democrats and their silly bullshit schemes to nowhere

    • Tell me, Jeff. Have you ever stopped to wonder why there’s no choice in terms of a union? If you want to buy a new car, there are all sorts of choices available. However, if you want a union to represent your interests as an employee of a corporate entity owned by some Wall Street gangsters funded by usury-racketeers, you have no choice of who will represent your interests. In almost every case you can name, the unions are actually run by the same folks who run the hedge-funds, etc. who own vast portfolios of companies. Instead of spending their time, money and efforts on improving your working conditions and getting you better pay and benefits, they spend it on issues like DIE, LBGTX, open-borders, war for foreign interests, etc.

      Imagine if there was a union whose real purpose was to fight for its membership. As things stand, all major unions bear an uncanny resemblance to the Repuke Party – claiming to be in your corner (and even taking your money) while quietly stabbing you in the back.

  11. The Republican Party, owned by oligarchs of all stripes but particularly The Usual Suspects, wants to drive wages down to zero or as close as they can to zero. Wages/benefits are the single biggest cost for most businessmen. Increasing the size of the labor pool decreases wages every, single, time, so it’s logical that businessmen are in favor of unlimited immigration. They couldn’t care less that the country their own children and grandchildren inherit will be a Third World shithole with their own children and grandchildren a hated, dispossessed, persecuted minority.

    They worship at the altar of Mammon, money is their Eucharist, the Republican Party their church. Their seminary is business school and at least for now, The Stable Genius is their prophet. Holy Scripture for them is the stock market with the carnival barkers on FOX TV and CNBC their preachers of the prosperity gospel. Sant Jared Kushner and Saint Howard Lutnick are the living embodiment of their doctrine of never stop being a scumbag while former Saint Jeffrey Epstein has been ex-communicated, his Last Rites being an arm across the windpipe till old Jeffrey went to his eternal reward.

    Things will continue to scrape along the bottom until the giant Ponzi scheme known as the American economy goes tits up, the stock market imitates the Titanic, bankruptcy looms for the great and the good and it’s time for another gigantic bailout for those well connected and Too Big To Fail (TBTF). They are also too big to jail for their various rackets, schemes, grifts and frauds that The Usual Suspects are the undisputed masters of and constitutes most of the U.S. financial system now. They have gone to the well too many times though so this time the TBTF scheme may have some unpleasant surprises for everyone involved.

  14. With a statue of satan holding a torch, like the whore in the harbor. It actually fits. Satan is their one god.

    You will remember, the FBI did a sting on Homan, they offered him a bag of money and he took it. All he has to do is say or do one thing 5he Jews don’t like and they will prosecute him over that bag of money.

    • I said that a long time ago. It doesn’t take a vast army to go after 100,000 biznissmen (at most), especially as there are RICO laws already on the books that can be used to basically arrest their assets and put them out of business. Once you crack the heads of those hiring the illegals the vast majority will self-deport. Then you can use the muscle to get rid of the remaining gangstas, et al. That’s not what Trump’s owners want though. The whole thing is a show. The borders will be open again by this time next year.

  19. Under the guise of false pretext, the Juden
    try to shut down the only-white community:

    As always, Taylor will keep up the pretense that this
    is just an isolated incident and a mere coincidence,
    not a cohencidence. After all, to him, Jews are white
    people, and he claims to have no Jewdar whatsoever.

    • We knew this was inevitable.

      The jwz will eat them to death with lawfare. Even though the state hasn’t found any violation of law , the jwz will use the courts to punish any whites seeking freedom and independence.

      All of these consequences were pre baked into the ‘fair housing’ act at its inception.

      • Utterly Despicable, these rodantine Levantines. But their all-kike ghettos and colonies in Brooklyn, Lawrence NJ, and upstate New York are free to remain. To speak nothing of ethnostate Yitzrael. But literally several dozen Whites explicitly self-determining out in the middle of the Ozarks– that cant abide. Where’s AGB on this?

  20. Here’s yet another Trump betrayal on the invasion of the country. Street-shitter installed by usual suspects to run CISCO fires 4000 Americans and demands more H1B’s. Where’s the snivil rights division and the army of small-hat ambulance chasers who are always there to sue at the slightest whiff of ‘discrimination’ against their favorite golem deployed against whites?

  21. American’s are pussies, even dump but “Mass” means you have to go real hard, which there is definitely an effort not to unleash that. Closed border still better than an open one. The boomer crap might apply to dump here but his successor might be more radical, the point is we’re in the right trajectory, going pepsi now is pure masochism for Whitey at this point.

    • Successor? Chump has damaged the Republican party badly, barring some miraculous economic turnaround. The Dems will win the next two elections, quickly undo Trump’s border security, and possibly monopolize national political dominance.
