Tom Homan, the incoming "border czar" under the Trump administration, has accepted an offer to lease land in Starr County for border security operations, Texas Land Commissioner Dawn Buckingham announced on X. The announcement was made alongside a clip from the Dr. Phil show, where Homan and the head of the Texas General Land Office (GLO) discussed the deal.
Homan has agreed to lease over 1,400 acres of land in Starr County and said he is currently working on a plan to utilize the land, which will be used for border security measures, with the construction of deportation facilities being one of the proposed options. According to the GLO, Texas government is taking action to address border security concerns, particularly as federal efforts have been criticized.
