Former ICE Director and now one of President Donald Trump’s top immigration enforcers, Tom Homan, received a loud round of applause during his recent Turning Point USA interview with Benny Johnson as he laid out what could become the largest immigration enforcement expansion in modern American history.
Homan did not mince words.
He told the audience that the size of the deportation operation is about to double, signaling a major escalation in efforts to locate and remove illegal immigrants, particularly criminal offenders and those tied to trafficking operations.
During the interview, Homan shared the now-famous phone call from President Donald Trump that pulled him back into the fight.
“I’m sitting at dinner with my wife, the phone rings, and it’s POTUS,” Homan recalled.
Trump reportedly told him:
“You’ve been bitching about it for four years… do you want to do something about it?”
Homan said that was the moment he knew he was coming back.
And judging by the applause from the Turning Point USA crowd, the audience loved every second of it.
But the biggest bombshell of the interview was not deportations—it was children.
Homan stated that authorities have now located approximately 146,000 children who had gone missing after entering the United States during the Biden administration, from a total pool of more than 300,000 unaccounted-for minors.
That number stunned the audience.
According to Homan, tracking these children is extraordinarily difficult because unlike adults, children often leave almost no digital footprint.
“They don’t have credit cards. They don’t have utility bills. They don’t have jobs. They don’t leave the normal digital trail adults do,” he explained.
Many of these children were reportedly released to sponsors or individuals whose backgrounds were not fully verified, creating what Homan describes as one of the biggest humanitarian and national security failures in recent border history.
Critics say the system was overwhelmed. Homan says it was negligence.
His mission now, he says, is simple: find the children, dismantle trafficking pipelines, and restore border enforcement.
With Trump back in the White House and Homan back in the war room, Washington may be preparing for the most aggressive immigration crackdown the country has seen in decades.
For supporters, it is long overdue.
For opponents, the political earthquake is just beginning.
