President Donald Trump's border border emperor Tom Homan on Friday clashed with Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez in a webinar advising immigrants on how to handle the encounter between immigrants and customs enforcement (ICE).
“Let's pray that she hasn't “educated” the next killer of young college nursing students on how she can avoid an ice arrest,” Homan told Fox News Digital on Friday.
“How many young women do they have to be raped, murdered and burned until she wakes up?”
Homan first said in “Ingraham's Angle” that she told the Deputy Attorney General that hosting the “Know Your Rights with Ice” event on her Facebook page would count as a barrier to federal law enforcement. He said he emailed the Associate Attorney General asking if he could.
“Is that hindering the efforts of our law enforcement?” Homan said.
“If so, what are we going to do about it? Is she crossing the line? So I'm working with the Department of Justice to find out. Where is that line they cross? So AOC is probably in trouble right now.”
During the event, viewers were informed how to handle ice search requests.
Immigrants also claim that Ice agents are hiring people to comply with searches, but the host also said that Ice has been intensifying the act of searches under the Trump administration in recent weeks. promoted the “trends” of the
There are also ways to distinguish between the various warrants that ice agents are likely to carry.
Although Ocasio-Cortez did not attend the webinar, he uploaded tips to Instagram via both English and Spanish posters, calling on his followers to share the posters widely and research them.
She also urged followers to print posters and “tape them up at work or leave them by the door.”
“So, whether you're a citizen or a non-citizen, if ice comes to your workplace or home, you can defend your community and the Constitution by exercising your rights,” she said. wrote.
On Thursday, Ocasio-Cortez took her to X and chuckled Homan to suggest that she might be in trouble.
“Maybe she's going to be in trouble now,” she posted.
“Maybe he can learn to read. The Constitution will be a good place to start,” she said.
In a comment on Fox News Digital, Homan said it wanted the Department of Justice to interpret the immunity and obstruction law, saying, “We know the constitution very well, but we also have the DOJ giving legal interpretations of the matter.” I know. In this way, we guarantee that ice will work according to the law.”
He then suggested that Ocasio-Cortez read titles 8 USC 1324 and 8 USC 1325.
“It's not okay to be in the US illegally. Getting into this country illegally is a violation of federal law. Illegal support for the US people to promote their illegal entry and their existence. It's not okay to do it. I thought I'd educated her on this a few years ago during Congress' testimony,” he said.
“She could call it “advising people illegally about their constitutional rights.” But we all have about avoiding ice, how not to arrest and not following the orders of federal judges after receiving legitimate procedures at large taxpayer costs. I know there is,” he said.
“She clearly believes we should not enforce laws enacted by Congress. By fighting the ice, she has been exiled with people who have illegally committed crimes that have entered this country. We put people who committed fraud and those who ignored federal court deportation orders against those who try to enforce our laws and endanger their lives by trying to maintain our community every day. “
Ocasio-Cortez told Fox News Digital: And I am proud to provide private education to everyday Americans to provide personal education. This ensures compliance with the law, taking into account many reports that agents are providing false documents in attempts to enter and search private homes. ”
“Horman appears vaguely familiar with U.S. immigration law, which reminds us that undocumented in the United States is a civil crime and not a criminal. “We look forward to continuing our work to ensure the safety of our everyday New Yorkers while linking together,” she said.
The clash comes as many left-wing Democrats continue to challenge the massive deportation operation launched by the Trump administration.
However, some Democrats have also expressed support, with New York Mayor Eric Adams agreeing to meet with Homan on Thursday to take Ice Agent to Rikers Island.
New York City is a “sanctuary” city, but Adams has expressed his openness to deporting illegal criminal immigrants.
Fox News Digital reported Friday that ice internal arrests under the Trump administration have skyrocketed, up 137% from last year, compared to the same period in the Biden administration last year.
Arrests of foreigners with criminal records have skyrocketed nearly 100% from 4,526 in the same period in 2024 to 8,993 Trump this year.
