He will do it with or without her.
That’s what White House Border Czar Tom Homan said regarding the deep resistance from Virginia’s new Democratic Gov. Abigail Spanberger against his deportation efforts.
Widely depicted by the media as a moderate Democrat during last year’s campaign trail, Spanberger made headlines this week when she signed an executive order saying local and state law enforcement are no longer required to work with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), repealing an order from her Republican predecessor Glenn Youngkin.
Homan, who showed up on Thursday’s installment of the “Ruthless” podcast, said he was struck by her striking turn from her days as a gubernatorial candidate.
“I’m a resident of Virginia and Spanberger — I remember her campaign ads. ‘I’m a law enforcement officer. I rescued children from sex trafficking.’ I’ve seen the commercials,” Homan told “Ruthless” co-host John Ashbrook.
“So, first day in office, she stops being a law enforcement officer and became a politician because where’s all those commercials you did about supporting law enforcement and rescuing kids?
“First of all, this administration — we already found 130,000 of those missing kids. The last (presidential) administration wasn’t even looking for them. Many of these children were victims of sex trafficking and forced labor. We’re tearing apart these trafficking rings. We’re looking for these missing children. We’re arresting criminal aliens, many of them like just [in] the last two weeks in Minnesota. A lot of them were sexual predators of children. Child rape. Where’s she gone? I mean, she’s a different person than what she ran on.”
Still, Homan said he respects Spanberger’s service to her country as a former CIA officer before she got into politics but said she “forgot it” immediately after becoming governor.
“I hope we can work together, but it doesn’t look good,” Homan said.
