Trump's Border Czar Warns Sanctuary Cities of Funding Cuts

Tom Homan, appointed as Trump's "border tsar," has pledged to cut federal funding to states that refuse to cooperate with mass deportation plans for undocumented immigrants. This move targets "sanctuary" states like California and New Mexico, which have vowed to resist. Homan, former acting director of ICE, insists federal funding can be used as leverage against non-compliant jurisdictions. Despite reduced border crossings under Biden, the Trump administration's deportation plans face potential legal and logistical challenges.

DeSantis vs. Newsom: The Battle Over Migrant Transport to Sacramento

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis defended his state's transport of undocumented migrants from Texas to Sacramento, saying he has no sympathy for "sanctuary states" like California. DeSantis has offered hardline immigration rhetoric and policy ideas, including shutting down the U.S.-Mexico border entirely and completing the border wall. He criticized President Joe Biden's handling of the southern border, characterizing the surge of migrants as "a massive dereliction of duty." DeSantis announced an inter-state partnership with several GOP-led states to address migration at the southern border and the spread of fentanyl.
