IMMIGRATION

Independent UK -  President-elect Donald Trump’s pick for border czar has threatened to throw the Denver mayor in jail if he doesn’t comply with mass deportations. Denver Mayor Mike Johnston has voiced resistance to Trump’s campaign promise to conduct mass deportations and last week said he would even go to jail to stand up for the cause. Tom Homan, Trump’s border czar nominee, said both he and Johnston think he should be behind bars if he doesn’t abide by what could be a federal policy.

“Look, me and the Denver mayor, we agree on one thing: he’s willing to go to jail, I’m willing to put him in jail,” Tom Homan said Monday on Fox News. His comment comes one day after Homan threatened to slash federal funds to states with leaders who don’t cooperate with immigration authorities.

Daily Mail, UK -  Donald Trump's incoming border czar Tom Homan says it's guaranteed that the future president will pull federal funds from states that don't comply with his mass deportation plans.  Homan, who served in the highest echelons of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) under Presidents Barack Obama and Trump, was recently tapped by the president-elect to serve as 'border czar,' a role tailor-made to carry out Trump's deportation mandate. The president-elect repeatedly claimed while campaigning that on day one he would pull off the 'largest deportation program in American history.'
