From "Angel Families" Tom Homan responds to Ilhan Omar claim that the founding fathers would support Somali immigration. Ilhan Omar:"This is certainly not what the Founding Fathers of the American dream were thinking about when they set out to write the Constitution."Tom Homan:"Unlike the Biden administration, we’re following the Constitution, we’re enforcing the law, we’re not ignoring the law. And you’re right, assimilation is important and it’s going to be required.Not only that, when they come here in a legal program, they’re required to be self-sufficient. They have to prove they’re self-sufficient. So a lot of them, first thing they’re doing to get here is get on the public dole. President Trump put his foot down, and like I said earlier, we’re doing a deep dive on thousands and thousands of files and we’re holding people accountable.And, you know, I’m so tired of them pulling the race card all the time, you know, because we’re doing this racelessly. ICE has arrested people from 180 different countries — Europe, Asia, South America. We’re not just arresting brown and black people; they’re arresting people from all over the world.You know, immigration enforcement is colorblind. There’s one thing that matters to us: did they follow the immigration law? Are they here legally? Did they break the law once they came here — whether illegally or legally, doesn’t matter.So we’re following the law. That’s all that matters to us. What Title 8 United States Code, Title 18 United States Code, the Immigration and Nationality Act — what that says, we’re enforcing without apology. That’s the way it’s supposed to be. As a member of Congress, she should respect that we’re enforcing the laws that Congress enacted."
