Trump Border Czar Tom Homan has warned that the “biggest national security vulnerability this country’s ever seen” comes from Biden-era gotaways.

Homan said federal officials do not have a full accounting of all the people from Iran who illegally crossed the border during the last administration. Speaking with Fox News anchor Maria Bartiromo on Sunday Morning Futures, Homan warned of the potential for Iranian sleeper cells after President Donald Trump ordered strikes on Tehran’s nuclear facilities.

Homan explained that there were 1,272 nationals of Iran released into the United States by the Biden administration — a stark contrast to “zero” releases under the Trump administration.

“Under Joe Biden, there was 1,272 nationals of Iran released into the country” after crossing the border illegally, says @RealTomHoman.

“Right now, because of President Trump’s leadership, we have the most secure border in my lifetime, most secure border in the history of this nation. So we have a secure border. So that was President Trump’s big win on securing this nation. So we’re not releasing people into this country. Special interest aliens aren’t crossing that border undetected. But under Joe Biden, we had over 10 million people cross that border. But my biggest concern from day one, beyond the fentanyl, beyond the sex trafficking of women and children, were the 2 million known gotaways.”

“Over 2 million people crossed that border, we don’t know who they are, where they came from, because they got away, because Border Patrol is so overwhelmed with the humanitarian crisis that Biden created that over 2 million people crossed the border and got away. That is my biggest concern. And that’s what created the biggest national security vulnerability this country’s ever seen.”

Homan admitted that the Trump administration does not know where all the gotaways have gone, but expressed confidence in the current leadership of the FBI, Department of Homeland Security (DHS), and the White House under Trump.

Contact Your Reps To Protect America’s Future

It seems like every time we at Million Voices speak to lawmakers and their teams, they all tell us the same thing: if just 10 people in their district write them letters about issues that matter to them, they know they have a serious crisis on their hands. A thousand people could message that same lawmaker via email or social media, and it would mean nothing. But hand-written, or even printed and signed letters, will make your politicians take action (if they really care about your vote, that is).

Contacting your representatives should be easy, but there are myriad ways they can ignore your messages. That’s where we come in. 

Yes, Million Voices helps you with voter guides. Yes, we send letters from YOU directly to your elected officials because it’s the only way to guarantee they’ll listen to you. Yes, we publish data, articles, text messages, and help bridge the gap between education and civic action.
