White House “border czar” Tom Homan said Tuesday that protests in Los Angeles are complicating immigration raids, making them more “difficult” and more “dangerous.”
Homan was asked during an interview with NBC’s “Nightly News” anchor Tom Llamas whether demonstrations had slowed Immigration and Customs Enforcement operations in the city.
“They’re making it more difficult,” Homan said, adding that federal officers are “going ahead” and making arrests daily.

When pressed on the issue, Homan said the protesters were making the situation “more dangerous,” and that ICE operations have continued daily throughout the protests.
“We’ve been running the ICE operation in Los Angeles every single day during this protest, and we’re arresting a lot of bad people in that city. We’re going to continue to do that,” Homan said. “They’re not going to stop us. They’re not going to slow us down.”
