Trump Border Czar Whines That People Keep Saying Mean Things About ICE
Tom Homans responsibilities as border czar seemingly now include policing the bounds of acceptable dissent. On Tuesday, Homan fancifully blamed politicians criticisms of Immigration and Customs Enforcement for an uptick in violence toward the agencys personnel.
On MSNBCs Morning Joe, the border czar supported the practice of ICE agents concealing their identities with masks. The masks, I think, are important. How do we get rid of the masks? Stop the hateful rhetoric, he said, before alleging an eightfold increase in assaults on ICE personnel over last year.
Who, by Homans lights, is responsible for the rhetoric (and, in turn, the violence)? I specifically mean members of Congress, he said. If members of Congress can compare ICE to the Nazis, that gives some of those people on the far left, the out of control peopleit emboldens them to take action.
Homans tone policing is consistent with other spurious attempts by the Trump administration to blame Democratic lawmakers for the reported (and exaggerated) increases in assaults against ICE agents.

Homan cries like a typical bully does when someone stands up to them.
Don't want to be compared to the Nazis? Stop arresting people without a warrant. Stop arresting public officials who do no more question you. Quit arresting people in court rooms who show for their immigration hearings.
In other words, stop acting like fucking Nazis
