President Donald Trump‘s border czar, Tom Homan, responded Monday to Democratic California Governor Gavin Newsom’s dare to “arrest” him over his response to the ongoing Los Angeles ICE protests.
“Trump’s border czar is threatening to arrest me for speaking out. Come and get me, tough guy. I don’t give a damn,” Newsom vowed in a post on X. “It won’t stop me from standing up for California.”
Homan responded on Monday morning in an appearance on Fox News, saying in part, “No one is above the law. If they cross the line, if they commit a crime– absolutely they can [be arrested] … All you hear is ICE being racists, being Nazis and Governor Newsom feeds that.”
