Border czar Tom Homan just publicly invited Pope Leo XIV to join him on a ride-along with Immigration and Customs Enforcement. The goal is to give the pontiff a firsthand look at the Trump administration’s perspective on border security. Homan, who identifies as a lifelong Catholic, believes that if the Pope saw the operations on the ground, he might better grasp the humanitarian necessity of enforcing immigration laws.
During a TurningPoint USA event, Homan stated, “I’ll sit down and talk to him, because they’re talking about something they don’t understand.” For Homan, this isn’t just about policy; it’s about the safety of those who might otherwise fall victim to dangerous cartels.
