Border Czar Tom Homan blasted Democrats on Friday, blaming their “Nazi” smears for fueling violent anti-ICE protests, including a chaotic clash at a California pot farm where agents were attacked with rocks and gunfire.
Speaking on Fox & Friends, Homan said the violence proves protests are spiraling out of control, especially as agents discovered 10 illegal migrant minors on-site, eight unaccompanied.
“What happened in California is just another example of protesters becoming criminals, and they’ve been emboldened by even members of Congress who compare ICE to Nazis and racists and terrorists,” Homan said on Fox & Friends Friday morning.
“I said months ago, it’s going to end up with a loss of life — and we had one the other day in Texas, and it’s not over,” he said, referencing the gunman who opened fire on border patrol agents walking into work in McAllen Monday.
"Look, we're looking for over 300,000 missing children. We've already found 10,000 Have you heard that anywhere?"—Tom Homan on the weed farm raid and finding 8 unaccompanied children.

Footage of the encounter was shared widely on social media, with many conservatives asking why immigrant children appeared to be working on the pot farm.

The Democratic mayor of nearby Oxnard commented on the raids on social media.
“It is becoming increasingly apparent that the actions taken by ICE are bold and aggressive, demonstrating insensitivity towards the direct impact on our community,” Luis Mc Arthur, the mayor of nearby Oxnard, said in a social media post. “These actions are causing unnecessary distress and harm. I remain committed to working alongside our Attorney General and the Governor’s office to explore potential legal avenues to address these activities.”
