Border czar Tom Homan is happy to live “rent-free” in the head of Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, but he warned the New York Democrat that the “tables have now turned.”
Speaking with Fox News host Laura Ingraham on Tuesday, Homan fired back at Ocasio-Cortez after she declared she wasn’t afraid of the immigration chief during a Queens town hall event last week.

“Tom Homan said he was going to refer me to DOJ because I’m using my free speech rights in order to advise people of their constitutional protections. To that I say: Come for me, do I look like I care?” Ocasio-Cortez said, referring to Homan’s criticism of a webinar she held earlier this year in which she advised migrants in her district on handling encounters with immigration officials.
The socialist New York congresswoman told a cheering crowd at the town hall that there was “nothing illegal about it and if they want to make it illegal, they can come take me.”

Homan addressed her remarks on “The Ingraham Angle” this week.
“I take pleasure I can live in her mind rent-free every day, but we all know exactly what she’s doing,” he said.
“She’s educating the worst of the worst [on] how do we evade law enforcement. But the tables have now turned. She’s educating people how to get prosecuted, because you have a final order,” he added. “It is illegal to not comply with that order.”
“It’s a crime to take steps to… not comply with ICE [Immigration and Customs Enforcement] removal orders or not comply with ICE actions taken in custody. You can’t hinder your own removal that was ordered by the federal judge. I would like AOC to read Title 8, United States Code 1253 because it’s starting tomorrow,” the border czar continued.
“Game’s over. We’re going to look for these public safety threats, and we’re going to take them off those streets in New York and every other sanctuary city,” he said.
“As a matter of fact, every sanctuary in the city, we’re going to triple the workforce. We’re going to flood the zone with officers. If we can’t arrest them in the jail, we’ll arrest them in the community. If we cannot arrest them in the community, we will arrest them on their work site,” Homan warned. “We’re taking these public safety threats off the streets with your help or without your help.”
