Incoming Border Czar Tom Homan issued a chilling warning Sunday, saying that ‘something is coming’ with at least 400 known terrorists identified as entering the county. He fears the number could be much higher.
Homan joined Fox News host Sean Hannity on Sunday evening to discuss the Trump administration’s immediate plans to address border security. With mass deportation operations rumored to begin as early as Tuesday, Homan confirmed that “plans are still up in the air” but assured Americans that decisive action is imminent.
“We will immediately start securing the border on day one,” Homan said. “We will initiate deportation operations and start looking for over 300,000 missing children. This will all happen on day one.”

Reports indicate that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is preparing for large-scale raids in several sanctuary cities, including Chicago and New York, following President-elect Donald Trump’s vow to halt the border “invasion” by sunset Monday.
During a rally at Capital One Arena in Washington, D.C., Trump reiterated his commitment to restoring border security, declaring, “By the time the sun sets tomorrow evening, the invasion of our borders will have come to a halt, and all the illegal border trespassers will, in some form or another, be on their way back home.”
Homan raised alarm about the potential threat posed by individuals who have entered the U.S. illegally. “We have murderers, rapists, cartel members, and gang members in our country,” he said, emphasizing the risks posed by the estimated 2.2 million ‘gotaways’—individuals who intentionally evaded border authorities.
According to Homan, these individuals paid higher fees to smugglers in order to avoid detection.
“We’ve identified about 400 known terrorists,” Homan disclosed, warning that the number could be much higher due to lax vetting procedures under the Biden administration. He cited recent cases where law enforcement thwarted terror plots by individuals who entered the country illegally.
Hannity echoed Homan’s concerns, stating that he believes a terrorist attack on U.S. soil is a matter of “when, not if.”

Homan agreed, warning that “something is coming” and that intelligence agencies are working tirelessly to mitigate potential threats.
Beyond national security concerns, Homan pointed to the humanitarian crisis at the border, particularly regarding children.
“Over half a million kids have been trafficked into this country and placed with unvetted sponsors,” he said. Homan criticized the Biden administration for failing to conduct DNA testing, which he believes has contributed to widespread exploitation.
“We know how to find these children, but it will be extremely difficult,” Homan added, outlining plans to prioritize child rescue operations.
Homan confirmed that President Trump will sign a series of executive orders immediately after taking office, calling them “game-changing.” While he did not provide specifics, he hinted at measures to reinstate border policies from Trump’s first term, such as the Remain in Mexico program and an expansion of the border wall construction.

“President Trump is going to secure the border at the highest level and finish the job,” Homan asserted, emphasizing that tougher enforcement will result in fewer illegal crossings, reduced drug trafficking, and decreased human trafficking incidents.
Hannity contrasted Trump’s immigration stance with that of the Biden administration, suggesting that under Vice President Kamala Harris, “borders would remain open, illegal immigrants would receive free housing and healthcare, and subsidies would continue.”
Homan responded by reaffirming Trump’s commitment to border security, stating, “President Trump will be a game-changer. No one is better equipped to secure the border.”
With the Trump administration preparing to take swift action on border security, Americans are bracing for what could be one of the most aggressive immigration enforcement efforts in recent history.
Homan assured Americans that his team is ready to act, saying, “We are focused, we are prepared, and we are determined to restore order at the border.”
