President Trump and Border Czar Tom Homan participate in One Big Beautiful Bill Event at the White House
Border Czar Tom Homan put Republicans in Congress on notice at a White House One Big Beautiful Bill event on Thursday, demanding they pass the bill to help border patrol and ICE make the United States safer.
“I get irritated. I get pissed off because I’m sick of meeting Angel moms and dads. You want to talk about family separation? They bury their children,” he told Republicans.
The President called Homan up to deliver remarks during his One Big Beautiful Bill event at the White House on Thursday, where he was joined by Administration officials, Members of Congress, conservative leaders, angel moms and dads, and everyday Americans who stand to benefit from the landmark One Big Beautiful Bill Act.
The event was intended to “rally Republicans to get the One Big Beautiful Bill across the finish line,” White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said earlier on Thursday.
President Trump has demanded Republicans send the bill to his desk so that he can fulfill his second-term agenda, including tax cuts and border security.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, Leavitt told reporters earlier that she is confident Republicans will deliver by July 4, and she expects a bill signing ceremony for the Act “next week!”

Homan kicked off his speech on Thursday, asking, “What the hell is the matter with everybody up in Congress?” before highlighting the need for the border security provisions within the bill and highlighting the low number of deportation officers currently on staff. Currently, there is only one deportation officer for every 120+ illegal aliens with criminal records in the United States– and that’s only the ones who have been caught and prosecuted previously. “We’ve got over 600,000 illegal aliens with criminal histories walking the streets of this country. We’ve got less than 5000 deportation officers.”
“This should be a no-brainer. The more resources we get, when we get this bill passed, we got more agents on the road, we buy more beds, we get more transportation flights,” he said.
Highlighting the historic progress President Trump has made in delivering on “the most secure border in the history of this nation,” with zero illegal border crossings last month, and fentanyl seizures down by 50%, Homan said he wasn’t satisfied.
“We should have zero fentanyl coming into this country. We need money to help secure that border at a higher level, stop the fentanyl from coming in, stop the sex trafficking of women and children, stop the known and suspected terrorists coming across that border,” he told the members of Congress who were present. “When you stop the violence against ICE officers, let’s make this country safe again.”
WATCH:
Homan: I think this issue of the big, beautiful bill should be nonpartisan. I don’t know— What the hell is the matter with everybody up in Congress? People are dying every day. ICE is arresting three times as many criminals than the Biden administration did. We’re taking public safety threats and national security threats off the street every single day, but we’ve got over 600,000 illegal aliens with criminal histories walking the streets of this country. We’ve got less than 5000 deportation officers. This should be a no-brainer. The more resources we get, when we get this bill passed, we got more agents on the road, we buy more beds, we get more transportation flights.
More agents mean more bad guys arrested and taken off the streets of this country every single day. Every day we arrest a public safety threat or national security threat, this makes this country much safer. Who the hell would be against that? And I get irritated. I get pissed off because I’m sick of meeting Angel moms and dads. You want to talk about family separation? They bury their children. So, I’ve done this since 1984, I’ve worked for six different presidents. No one has had the success of the Trump administration. We’ve got the most secure border in the history of this nation today.
But we need more border wall. Border walls save lives. Women and children can’t get over that wall, which means they go to a place where there’s not a wall, and what’s waiting on them? The men and women the Border Patrol who take care of these humanitarian needs and save their lives. We already got fentanyl seizures down half. Fentanyl seizures should be 100%. We should have zero fentanyl coming into this country. We need money to help secure that border at a higher level, stop the fentanyl from coming in, stop the sex trafficking of women and children, stop the known and suspected terrorists coming across that border.
Right now, I was looking at the stats today, ICE is arresting a record number of known and suspected terrorists in this country, along with the FBI. With more money, we can arrest more of these people and make this country safer. This is a nonpartisan issue. Let’s make this country safe again. So, to the Democrats and the Republicans, and the independents, I don’t care who you’re from, pass the bill so we make this country safe. So, when you stop the violence against ICE officers, let’s make this country safe again.
And without that bill, it’s going to be a hard road. We got a lot of people to look for, a lot of people to rest, a lot of national security threats we know are in this country. We need to find them. We need more money to do that. We need more agents to do that. For God’s sake, let’s pass this bill and get this done.
