Tom Homan: ICE can no longer do their jobs

BRIAN: THANKS SO MUCH, JILLIAN. 27 MINUTES BEFORE THE TOP OF THE HOUR. FED UP WITH THE BIDEN BORDER POLICY HIGH LEVEL ICE OFFICIAL QUITTING HIS POST AFTER 30 YEARS. IN AN EMAIL TO HER COLLEAGUES SAYS THIS. A NOW FORMER ICE ENFORCEMENT REMOVAL OFFICER WRITES THIS QUOTE FROM THIS LETTER TO FIGHT AND ARGUE EVERY DAY ABOUT NOT ARRESTING OR RELEASING HORRIBLE CRIMINAL ALIENS TO THE STREET QUITE FRANKLY IS DISGUSTING. THAT'S SOMETHING SIMILAR THAT TOM HOMAN HAS SAID BEFORE. RETIRED ACTING ICE DIRECTOR HIMSELF. HE RECEIVED THE EMAIL AND IS TALKING ABOUT IT. TOM, YOUR REACTION TO YOUR FRIEND'S MOVE TO LEAF? >> WELL, FIRST OF ALL, IT'S SAD THAT SOMEONE SPENDS 30 YEARS SERVING THEIR NATION THEY ARE GOING OUT THIS WAY. THEY ARE GOING OUT AND NOT BEING ABLE TO DO HIS JOB. I KNOW THIS MAN IS A FRIEND OF MINE AND PATRIOT SERVED HIS NATION FOR OVER 30 YEARS. HE IS QUITTING BECAUSE HE RUNS A LARGE FIELD OFFICE. IS HE A SENIOR LEVEL OFFICIAL THAT RUNS A LARGE FIELD OFFICE. HE HAS 700 AGENTS WORKING FOR HIM. HE CAN'T LET HIS AGENTS DO THEIR JOB BECAUSE HE IS UNDER ORDERS NOT TO ARREST. CAN'T ARREST ILLEGAL ALIENS ANYMORE, BRIAN. CAN YOU BE IN THE COUNTRY ILLEGALLY. ICE CAN'T TOUCH THEM AND REMOVE THEM. THE CRIMINALS IF YOU ARE CONVICTED OF ASSAULT THEY CAN'T ARREST YOU. THEY HAD A CASE -- I A GUY WAS CONVICTED OF DUI FOUR TIMES. FOUR TIMES. HE WAS ORDERED REMOVED BY IMMIGRATION JUDGE. WHEN HE GOT OUT OF JAIL. ICE HAD TO DROP THE DETAINER BECAUSE HE IS NO LONGER A PRIORITY. YOU HAVE GOT TO BE CONVICTED OF A SERIOUS, SERIOUS CRIME OR ICE CAN'T TOUCH YOU. YOU CAN'T ENFORCE IMMIGRATION LAW ANYMORE UNDER THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION. THIS GUY CANNOT LOOK HIS AGENTS IN THE EYE EVERY DAY AND KEEP SAYING NO TO THEM. YOU CAN'T DO YOUR JOB. YOU CAN'T UPHOLD YOUR OATHS. HE QUIT. OF I WILL TELL YOU SOMETHING. THERE IS 24 FIELD OFFICE DIRECTORS ACROSS THE NATION. I TALK TO ALMOST ALL OF THEM. THEY WOULD ALL QUIT TODAY IF THEY COULD. BUT THEY HAVE GOT MORTGAGES AND CHILDREN IN COLLEGE. THEY ARE ALL MISERABLE. THE MORALE IS DESTROYED. THIS AGENCY IS NOT THE SAME AGENCY IT EVER HAS BEEN BEFORE. >> THIS HAS NEVER BEEN A PARTY PROBLEM. WE ALL AGREE ON THE ARREST, CRIMINALS IN OUR MIDST. WHEN YOU CROSS THE BORDER. YOU BROKE THE LAW. IT WAS NEVER A PARTY PROBLEM. NOW DEMOCRATS SAY COME ONE, COME ALL. AND REPUBLICANS SAY ARE YOU INSANE? SINCE WHEN DOES THAT WORK IN OUR COUNTRY'S BEST INTEREST? DON'T WORRY, THE VICE PRESIDENT IS ON THE JOB. AND SHE OUTLINES HER PRIORITIES. AND IT'S ALL ABOUT OTHER COUNTRIES. LET'S LOOK AT THIS TOGETHER, TOM. NUMBER ONE, ADDRESS ECONOMIC INEQUALITY. YOU KNOW WE HAVE TO SETTLE NAWJ INEQUALITY WHEN IT COMES TO CENTRAL AND SOUTH AMERICA. ADVANCING THE RULE OF LAW. MAKE SURE THEY ARE DOING A GOOD JOB ADVANCING THE RULE OF LAW. PROMOTING RESPECT FOR HUMAN RIGHTS. OH, GOODY SO WE WILL FOCUS ON GUATEMALA AND EL SALVADOR NOT HERE IN AMERICA. COMBATING CRIME AND GENDER BASED AND DOMESTIC VIOLENCE. THAT WILL REALLY HELP THINGS AT THE BORDER DO YOU THINK SO? >> THAT'S A JOKE. IN SIX MONTHS THEY HAVE DONE TWO THINGS WROTE 11 PAGE MEMO THAT MEANS NOTHING. NUMBER ONE, THAT MEMO SHOULD HAVE BEEN SECURE THE BORDER AND ALLOW IMMIGRATION AGENTS DO THEIR JOB AND ARREST CRIMINALS. NUMBER GOT ONLY THING THEY HAVE DONE SUCCESSFULLY, BRIAN, GET REALLY GOOD AT RELEASING PEOPLE REALLY QUICKLY. PRESIDENT BIDEN SAID LAST WEEK WHEN HE WAS ASKED AT CNN TOWN HALL HOW ABOUT THE IMMIGRATION ISSUE? WE HAVE THE HAVE IT SOLVED. BORDER PATROL AND CUSTOMS 90%. RELEASE THEM QUICKLY. THEY CALL SUCCESS. I CALL IT ENTICEMENT. NOW I CAN GET TO THE UNITED STATES I WILL BE RELEASED QUICKLY AND THEY WILL BUS ME AND SEND A PLANE AND GET ME TO MY FINAL DESTINATION. BRIAN: THEY FOLLOW OUR NEWS MORE THAN WE FOLLOW OUR NEWS. SO, YESTERDAY, A BIDEN OFFICIAL WAS ASKED, WHAT ARE YOU DOING AT THE BORDER? YOU ARE SO CONCERNED ABOUT THE PANDEMIC AND THE SURGE AND WHO IS VACCINATED HERE. AT THE BORDER THESE PEOPLE ARE COMING IN WITHOUT ANY VACCINES. WE DON'T KNOW WHO IS TESTING POSITIVE AND WHO IS NOT. LISTEN TO THIS EXCHANGE. >> WHY IS DID THAT THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IS ASKING VACCINATED AMERICANS TO WEAR MASKS TO STOP THE SPREAD OF COVID-19 BUT AT THE SAME TIME FEDERAL AGENTS ARE ALSO RELEASING COVID-19 POSITIVE BORDER CROSSERS INTO SMALL TOWNS IN TEXAS? >> CBP PROVIDES MIGRANT WITH PPE FROM THE MOMENT, FROM THE MOMENT THEY ARE TAKEN INTO CUSTODY AND MIGRANTS ARE REQUIRED TO KEEP MASKS ON AT ALL TIMES. BRIAN: WOW. HEY, MIGRANT, I KNOW YOU ARE HERE ILLEGALLY AND YOU HAVE BROKEN MANY, MANY LAWS BUT KEEP THAT MASK ON. IS THAT THE WAY IT'S BEING DONE AT THE BORDER? >> NO, WHAT THEY SHOULD HAVE ASKED HER IS CBP TESTING FOR COVID UPON ARREST? ARE YOU ALLOWING ILLEGAL ALIEN TO LEAVE A BORDER PATROL STATION OVER THE LINE WITHOUT BEING TESTED? DOES CBP THEMSELVES THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT TEST? NO. THEY ARE COUNTING ON LOCAL COMMUNITIES TO TEST THEM. THEY WILL GET THEM TO A HOLT ROOM AND MAYBE TEST THEM HOTEL ROOM NGO AND GET COVID. GUESS WHAT? IT IS TOO LATE. IN A HOTEL ROOM WITH 300 PEOPLE. GET THEM ON A BUS AND PLANE. THEY GIVE A MASK TO 166,000 PEOPLE THEY HAVE RELEASED WITHOUT A COURT DATE. GIVE A MASK TO I HAVE GOT 8400 CRIMINALS THEY HAVE ARRESTED. THEY GET A MASK TO CRIMINALS THEY HAVE ARRESTED. 49 OF THEM WHO IS CONVICTED OF HOMICIDE. THAT COME ACROSS THE BORDER. 274 GANG MEMBERS. THE BOTTOM LINE IS THIS ADMINISTRATION IS HOLDING AMERICANS TO A DIFFERENT STANDARD THAN THEY ARE HOLDING ILLEGAL ALIENS. PURPOSELY RELEASING ILLEGAL ALIENS INTO THE IT NO COURT DATE AND COVID. DOESN'T MAKE SENSE. BRIAN: MAGNET FOR MORE TO COME. YESTERDAY CAUGHT OFF BIKE. JOE BIDEN IN THIS RECONCILIATION PACKAGE GOING TO PUT IN IMMIGRATION REFORM AND TRY TO NATURALIZE 8 MILLION ILLEGALS. THAT'S A GO SIGN TO CENTRAL AND SOUTH AMERICA TO HAITI, THE CARIBBEAN, EVERYWHERE AROUND THE WORLD COME ONE, COME ALL ILLEGALLY. LOOK OUT. AND THE BORDER PATROL IS IN THE LINE OF FIRE WITH NO SUPPORT. TOM HOMAN, THANKS SO MUCH.
