Tom Homan Refutes Claims That ICE Is Racial Profiling

Border czar Tom Homan on Sunday defended Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents against accusations of racial profiling ...

Homan: "When they say 'stop racial profiling' -- that's just not occurring. ICE will briefly detain and question somebody based on reasonable suspicion. It has nothing to do with racial profiling."

How the Supreme Court's Latest Decision Clears the Way for Racial Profiling During Immigration Raids (September 2025)
www.americanimmigrationcouncil.org

... What did the Supreme Court's ruling say?

In a 6-3 vote in the case known as Vasquez Perdomo v. Noem, the Supreme Court granted an emergency request from the Trump administration and temporarily halted a LA judge's order that barred "roving patrols" from snatching people off California streets and questioning them based on how they look, what language they speak, what work they do, or even where they happen to be. Both a Los Angeles federal court and the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals had ruled that these actions amounted to illegal racial profiling. ...

My first question would be ...

If Border Czar Homan states that ICE does not use racial profiling, why did the Trump administration spend the time and money to bring the issue to its Supreme Court?

Until he gets straight on that $50K cash in a bag, Tom Homan's words are just the babbling of another goon who emerged from the Border Patrol cesspit.

"Refutes"?
Hardly.
Here, Cava Tom, look it up: "Kavanaugh Stop" (
en.wikipedia.org), dumbass.

Did anyone think he was going to "OK. You got me."?

Reasonable suspicion, meaning, if they have Black or Brown skin, if they speak English with an accent? See, that is in fact racial profiling.
Give us a break, this is all harassment of Blue people in Blue states to try and keep down the vote for the Democratic Party come midterms.
Everything else that ICE says at this point is hooey.
Americans expect and deserve strong and secure borders. Not sure what hassling people hundreds of miles from a border is about but making political points. Yes, America has had porous borders for many decades, get over it, give those folks here a pathway to citizenship, and move on.

**** USCG Veteran Handcuffed and Paraded Around Cruise Ship by ICE Thugs ****

"ICE agents boarded a cruise ship docked in Miami and detained a USCG veteran in a case of 'mistaken identity.'

Jose "Joey" Martinez and his wife, Tammy Verhas, were "dead asleep" in their room when federal agents dressed in all black burst into their room at around 6:30 a.m., the veteran recalled. It was about two hours before the Carnival Cruise Line guests were scheduled to disembark from the ship and go through customs in Miami, Florida.

"We were woken to a loud banging on the door and then suddenly three men entered our room with flashlights, screaming," Martinez said. "They said Jose Martinez,' and they ordered me out of bed. I didn't know who they were. I couldn't see anything because the lights are shining in my eyes."

US CBP agents ordered Martinez against a wall and handcuffed him, Martinez said, adding that he "did exactly as instructed because I didn't want anything to escalate." He told them he was an American citizen. Agents "paraded" him through the boat "in front of other guests" off the ship and placed him into a holding cell, he said."

I hear Homan and other MAGAts are also claiming that Hitler was not such a bad guy. Even if you were Jewish.

#118 I figured out why you chose a name to be shortened to STD. You have an ABI caused during your birth because your mother had a venereal disease. Calling yourself STD makes you feel close to her, doesn't it?

Always remember, if STD happens to call someone "too f/g illiterate", just remind him that he's too f/g stupid to even recognize words that are spelled correctly, to wit:

#50 STD says, "too f/g illiterate to know how to spell unanimous..."

...in response to my #47:

The reviews are in and the verdict is unanimous

#47 | Posted by A_Friend at 2026-01-29 12:43 PM

Quite obviously, STD "thinks" that unanimous is NOT spelled unanimous.

I believe that he is unanimously stupid.

But, I report, you decide.
