Border czar Tom Homan vows to stay in Minnesota 'until the problem's gone'

White House border czar Tom Homan vowed Thursday to remain in Minnesota leading Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) operations there "until the problem is gone." 

Homan made the statement during a Thursday morning news conference, his first since President Donald Trump sent him to the Twin Cities earlier this week. He said the administration is working on a "drawdown plan" to decrease presence of federal agents in the state.

The border chief said he had a "very productive" meeting with Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison on Wednesday. Ellison agreed to notify ICE when local jails were releasing violent illegal aliens, a major request from federal law enforcement.

"One ICE agent can arrest one bad guy when he's behind the safety and security of a jail when he's behind bars and we know he doesn't have weapons," Homan said. "But when you release that public safety threat illegal alien back into the community--We have a job to do. We're going to arrest him, so we're going to find him."
