Border Czar Tom Homan revealed, during an interview with Fox News Channel, that he has had to live apart from his wife since late March 2025 due to death threats against him and his family. Firing back, accused reporters of trying to locate his family and identify his sons, calling it “beyond the pale” and “insulting.”
For context, as the leading Trump’s immigration enforcer leading mass deportations, Homan has faced escalating threats from left-wing activists since his June 2025 appointment. Other incidents include doxxing and calls for violence against ICE agents have terrorized the nation. He prayed for agents’ safety amid increased violence.
Starting off the interaction, a reporter asked, “You know you’ve been hearing about some liberals. California is one of those states that wants to help out the people who are left behind as you take the violent criminals off the streets. What do the families of these threatened officers and ICE agents need?”
Responding honestly, Homan declared, “They need protection, and they need to help the federal government protect not only the agents but their spouses, look at Charis. I’ve shared that I have not lived with my wife since late March because of death threats against me.”
Still not done, he exclaimed, “And now there’s There are reporters out there trying to find the location of my family. There are reporters trying to identify who my sons are. I mean, this has gone beyond the pale. It’s insulting.”
“And God bless the men and women with ice and border show I before I go to bed every night, I say a prayer for every person out there wearing that shield that they go home safe to their families, and every illegal alien we rest goes home safe to their families. I don’t want to see any bloodshed,” Homan concluded.

Tragically, this is not the first time Tom Homan has mentioned his family separation. Earlier this year, during an interview with Miranda Devine of the New York Post, he revealed, “My wife’s living separately from me right now.”
He clarified that [The separation is] “because of the death threats against me.” Building on this point, the border Czar was clearly pained saying, “I see her as much as I can, but the death threats against my family and me are outrageous.”
Recounting how his wife encouraged him to take the role, he recounted, “Even my wife said, ‘You know, it’s a huge pay cut,’ because I’m doing well in the private sector. She’s in the middle of remodeling — months of stuff — and all that stopped because I’m leaving the private sector, going back to a government paycheck.”
Building on this, he noted, “She said, ‘You need to go back, or we’ll get divorced.’ Because if you don’t go back, you’ll be waking up every day, pissed off that you didn’t go back, and I’ve gotta live with four more years of you being pissed off, so go back and do the job.”
Remaining defiant, Homan vowed, “I’m not going anywhere. I mean, I had a thousand protestors at my house in Upstate New York, my lake house. I’m not going away, ’cause I know how important it is to secure our border.”
