Not Ideal! Tom Homan Warns of ‘More Bloodshed’ Unless Dems Shut Their Mouth
Nothing like the border czar telling you to shut up lest ICE kill you, or vanish you into one of its camps.

It’s been a fat minute since we last checked in on Tom Homan, the White House border czar who—for reasons we may never unearth—came under fire in September for accepting $50,000 in cash in a Cava bag ahead of Trump’s reelection. But rest (not) assured; the immigration goon is back in the headlines this week, along with an ominous warning about the rise in fatal shootings by federal agents.
“It all goes back to the Dems who want to continually attack ICE and tell people to evade them, tell people don’t comply, tell people to resist, and tell people ICE isn’t a real law enforcement,” Homan told Fox News’ Laura Ingraham on Wednesday. “There’s still going to be more bloodshed unless they shut their mouth and let ICE enforce the laws that they enacted.”
Ah, nothing like being told to shut up lest ICE kill you, or vanish you into one of its camps.
Tom Homan: “It all go backs to the Dems … there’s still gonna be more bloodshed unless they shut their mouth and let ICE enforce the laws that they enacted.”

Specifically, Homan was addressing the so-called crisis of “vehicle assaults” plaguing the nation—aka ICE’s one-stop shop excuse for the ongoing spate of fatal shootings, and one used to explain the deaths Nicole Renee Good and Alex Pretti, as well as this week’s back-to-back deaths of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo and Johan Sebastián Durán Guerrero.
All this also comes as part of a seemingly deliberate narrative to emphasize “vehicle assaults” on federal agents, which the Department of Homeland Security claims has gone up 3,300%—a new favorite talking point of Homan’s, as well as DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin.
As we’ve reported before, this figure is incredibly misleading and irresponsible.
When DHS said there was a 1300% jump in vehicle attacks last year, it was an increase from 2 incidents in 2024 to 26 in 2025. https://t.co/LLxXBa1k7e

Interestingly, all this is also a big step back from a policy directive allegedly proposed by Mullin on Tuesday, when he suggested agents stop conducting vehicle stops until they conducted some “new training.” The policy, however, was quickly overturned by Trump.
“I’m scared to death because assaults with vehicles are sky high,” Homan continued. “There’s been a lot of shootings. I’m scared to death that one of these days, our ICE officers aren’t going to be quick enough. The bad guys can be quicker.” The audacity. It’s astounding.
