Border Czar Tom Homan Separated from Wife Amid Death Threats

In a deeply personal revelation, Border Czar Tom Homan has shared that he is living apart from his wife due to a barrage of death threats targeting him and his family. Speaking on a podcast with New York Post columnist Miranda Devine, Homan opened up about the toll his role in the Trump administration has taken on his personal life. 'My wife’s living separately from me right now, mainly because of the death threats against me,' he admitted, underscoring the severity of the situation. 'I see her as much as I can, but the threats are outrageous.'

Homan, who previously served as acting ICE director during Trump's first term, also reflected on how his career ascent has drastically reduced the time spent with his family. 'I don’t see my family very much,' he noted, a poignant reminder of the sacrifices behind public service. His return to a prominent role came via a direct call from President-Elect Donald Trump, who offered him the position of border czar to oversee key policies like mass deportations. Recounting the moment, Homan shared a lighthearted exchange with Trump: 'You’ve been complaining about it for four years. Well, come back and fix it.' How could anyone say no to that?

Since Homan took the helm, recent data from U.S. Customs and Border Protection shows a significant drop in southern border crossings compared to the previous administration, marking record-low numbers. While the stats paint a picture of progress, the personal cost of his dedication remains a stark contrast.
