Border czar Tom Homan reacts to Selena Gomez's viral post sobbing over ICE raids

Border czar Tom Homan said Monday night the Trump administration has “no 
apologies” for the ICE raids targeting illegal migrants in the US when 
asked about Selena Gomez’s since-deleted Instagram post in which she 
sobbed over the law enforcement action.

“All my people are getting attacked, the children. I don’t understand. I’m 
so sorry, I wish I could do something, but I can’t. I don’t know what to 
do. I’ll try everything, I promise,” Gomez said in the video.

Gomez was slammed for sounding out of touch and quickly took down the 
video, writing on her Instagram story, “Apparently it’s not ok to show 
empathy for people.”

When asked about the viral video on Fox News, Homan denied the alleged 
attacks Gomez referenced and claimed that Immigration Customs and 
Enforcement is only going after illegal migrants with prior criminal 
history.

“If they don’t like it, then go to Congress and change the law. We’re 
going to do this operation without apology,” Homan told Fox News.

“We’re gonna make our community safer. It is all for the good of this 
nation. And we’re gonna keep going. No apologies. We’re moving forward.”

Homan added that he doesn’t think that any families have been arrested.

Over the weekend alone, ICE made 286 arrests on Saturday and 956 on 
Sunday.

Homan has promised that there will be arrests every single day, which 
could culminate in millions of deportations.

Some groups have already moved to file lawsuits against the Trump 
Administration for the rapid crackdown, including Quakers who assert that 
the raids in houses of worship are not constitutional.
