‘They worship death’: Trump ‘border czar’ reveals extremist views in interview

Donald Trump’s “border czar”, Tom Homan, and far-right media personality Tucker Carlson talked about a bizarre range of extremist and racist conspiracy theories in an interview just weeks before Homan took office and was trusted with implementing a wide-ranging crackdown on migrants.

The conversation included Carlson’s claim that Mexican cartels come “from cultures that have practiced human sacrifice for thousands of years”, connected the racist “great replacement” theory to Biden’s immigration policy, and advocated the arrest of elected US leaders who opposed Donald Trump’s policies on migrants.

On immigration policy, Homan expressed a desire to get the Department of Defense to assist with “intelligence” and “targeting” domestically and took the view that Immigration and Border Enforcement (Ice) should arrest “a mayor or a governor” that “harbored” immigrants in sanctuary cities.

Meanwhile, Homan faces questions over the network of associations he built up in his non-profit work during the interval between his appointment in the first Trump administration and his new White House role.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

Immigrants?  Migrants? How about calling ILLEGAL ALIENS what they really are, "Yahoo News"?

If someone in the process of committing a Felony receives aid from a person who knows they are committing a Felony but aids them nonetheless of their own volition, that person rendering aid in the commission of the Felony is an accessory to the crime. If several persons, with knowledge of the crime conspire to aid someone in the commission of the Felony, that is consipiracy to be accessories to the crime, a separate charge.

If you get arrested for the Felony crimes of Accessory or Conspiracy, well, tough titty.

If you aid someone in the commission of a felony and death results from that felony, then you, too, can be charged with murder, just like a getaway driver in a robbery where someone gets killed.

In America, it doesn't matter who you are nor what office you may hold, you are not above the law.

Whine on, Yahoo.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

The old "racist" card just doesn't hold water anymore.  The minute they play it, they have lost all credibility.
