Tom Homan, the border czar in the Trump administration, is already hitting the ground running ahead of the official inauguration. His recent visit to the Texas border with Governor Greg Abbott, a fellow Republican, shows that plans are in motion to fortify the southern border well before the new administration takes office. Homan’s proactive approach is proof that the incoming Trump team is serious about addressing border security without any unnecessary delays.
In a chat on Fox News, Homan praised the impressive work Gov. Abbott has done in reducing illegal crossings by over 80 percent. This stark decline can largely be attributed to the policies put in place during the Trump years, which Abbott has effectively implemented at the state level. Building border walls, enforcing the law, and ensuring that consequences for crossing the border illegally are firmly in place clearly make a difference. Homan emphasized that Abbott’s dedication to these policies is what keeps Texas safe, contradicting the prevailing narrative pushed by leftist politicians who just can’t seem to understand that walls work.
The incoming Trump administration has made it clear they won’t be wasting time holding back or second-guessing the efforts of those trying to enforce immigration law. Instead, they are ready to partner with firmly committed figures like Governor Abbott, ensuring that Texas will not be left to fend for itself. This united front could make all the difference as new policies are rolled out in a tangible way, rather than the empty promises that often come from the other side of the aisle.

Homan’s remarks on the devastating plight of children crossing the border on their own highlight another serious failure of the current administration. He called out the Biden administration for its negligence in handling the vetting of sponsors for these minors. The lax policies not only jeopardize the safety of vulnerable children but also illustrate how misguided border management can have dire consequences. Over 300,000 children have slipped through the cracks due to dropped DNA testing protocols, leaving families in limbo and creating numerous safety concerns.
As the Biden administration hurriedly tries to shed its past mistakes and distances itself from Trump-era policies, Homan and Abbott are clearly taking the reins. The plan to bolster border security not only signals a clear rejection of the current administration’s approach but also provides hope for more effective immigration policies under the leadership of President Trump once again. The message is loud and clear: while the left seems more interested in rhetoric, those serious about securing the border are already taking action.
