Over the weekend, Border Czar Tom Homan declared that since assuming office and reminding the world that the border is closed, the Trump administration has witnessed a sharp decline in illegal border crossings.
After the administration has been in power for almost two weeks, Homan revealed the information in an interview on Fox News’ “Sunday Morning Futures” on Sunday.
“We’ve got the numbers this morning. The crossings on the border are down 93%. 93%! That’s a bigger decrease than under the first Trump administration.” Homan said.
“So, look, I said it, President Trump’s the game-changer. No one has had the success he’s had in securing the border. He clearly understands we can’t have strong national security if we don’t have border security. We need to know who’s coming in, what’s coming in, where, and why.” he continued.
“We’ve achieved success on the border already,” Homan said. “We’ve got more work to do. And as far as the deportation operation, I think we got 5,000 arrested the first week, and a majority of them being criminals.”
Homan remarked that regarding the ‘non-criminals’ the media has claimed have been swept up in many of the raids that “arrested in sanctuary cities because you force us into the community rather than arresting the bad guy in jail, and when we find that criminal, he’s most likely with others, and they’re going to go, too.”

“If you want to be a sanctuary city, you’re going to get more agents in the community,” he concluded.
