President-elect Trump’s pick for “border czar,” Tom Homan, on Sunday threatened funding for states that refuse to cooperate in the federal government’s deportation plans.
Fox News’s Mark Levin, in an interview with Homan aired Sunday, said the border czar will have “a very, very powerful weapon that the Democrats, when they’re in power, use against Republican administrations, state and local, all the time: federal funding.”
“If you have a governor who says, ‘I’m not gonna cooperate. … I’m gonna block you,’ well, then, federal funds should be slashed to that state, and I mean hugely so, so the people of that state understand that the governor is the responsible party, that the mayor’s the responsible party,” Levin added.
Homan agreed with Levin, saying “that’s going to happen, I guarantee you,” adding that the president-elect “will do that.”
Homan said Sunday that Democrats needed to put aside their feelings about Trump and cooperate.
“I’ll say this: President Trump has made it clear, we’re going to prioritize public safety threats and national security threats right out of the gate [because] they pose the most danger to this country. What governor or mayor doesn’t want public safety threats and national security threats out of their neighborhoods, out of their communities?” Homan said Sunday.
“That’s their number one responsibility. So you can hate Trump all you want, but you gotta love your community more than you hate President Trump,” he added.
That’s what I can’t understand. Why don’t these governors want dangerous criminals out of their states/communities? It doesn’t make sense from a public safety standpoint at all.
Sounds good.
Stop protecting illegal alien criminals and fraudsters when the Feds come for them.
