Summary

Incoming Trump administration “border czar” Tom Homan announced plans to resume family detentions as part of a crackdown on undocumented immigrants.

Families with children will be held in tent-like facilities, and parents may face the choice of deporting as a family or leaving US-born children behind.

Homan, known for his role in Trump’s first-term family separation policy, also plans to reinstate worksite raids and the “remain in Mexico” program.

Critics warn these policies, ended under Biden, harm children and undermine humanitarian standards.

    I think for this administration we should refer to them not as the “czar” of something, but rather the “hauptamptleiter”.
