Tom Homan just dropped the most ominous warning of his career. Terrorists are inside the U.S.—and we have no idea where they are. After 40 years on the front lines, Homan says this is the biggest national security threat America has ever faced. What he said next will give you chills: “If it scares the hell out of me, it should scare the hell out of every American.” 🧵 THREAD

Tom Homan has seen a lot in his 40 years of Border Patrol and immigration enforcement...but what he’s seeing now has him sounding the alarm. The Border Czar told Sean Hannity: “This is the BIGGEST national security issue this country has ever faced,” Homan warned. He’s talking about terrorists crossing the southern border, slipping into the country, and vanishing without a trace. Under the Biden administration, known terrorists and national security threats were encountered at the border and then released. “Not only do you get 700-some released… number one, they can’t be properly vetted,” Homan said. And despite former Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas insisting they were vetted, Homan pushed back hard. “Do you think Iran would give us any information about their national security issues or the past or records of who these people are?” he asked. “Iran is not going to give us that information.” But what scares him even more is the unknown. “More than 2 million gotaways… we don’t know who they are, where they came from or why they are here,” Homan said. “That scares me more than anything.”

That’s why Homan says every second counts. This isn’t just a border issue anymore—it’s a national emergency. And Homan says one man saw it coming: President Donald Trump. “Here’s what the people need to know: Donald Trump is the greatest president of my lifetime,” he said. “Because right after the election, we didn’t wait until January 20th. I worked with Stephen Miller and many others because we knew starting day one after inauguration, we got a big problem.” That problem was already taking shape: over 2 million gotaways, including thousands from countries like China, Russia, Iran, Syria, and Turkey. And Trump didn’t waste time. “Day one, President Trump started to secure that border. We secured the border in seven weeks,” Homan said. “How many Syrians have been released? Zero. People from Iran? Zero. Iraq? Zero.” Under Trump, catch and release is OVER. There are hard lines and real consequences, but the hunt for the gotaways remains a top priority. “We’re spending every moment right now looking for these national security threats. We got to get them quickly.”

The solution comes down to politics. With millions of illegal aliens inside the U.S. and threats growing by the day, Homan says Congress needs to step up or risk letting the situation spiral even further out of control. “I’ll say this: we need the Big Beautiful Bill. Right now we need it more than ever.” It’s not just about border walls or policy changes. It’s about resources. Homan laid out the math: more than 20 million illegal aliens are wandering around inside the U.S. At least 2 million are known “gotaways.” And ICE has fewer than 5,000 deportation officers to deal with all of it. “We need that bill passed and we need that money,” he said. “We need the agents. We need the beds. We need the transportation. We need the contracts.” Without those tools, ICE simply can’t do its job. And the longer the delay, the greater the danger. “We need the Big Beautiful Bill passed QUICKLY so we can put more effort into looking for these national security threats.”

But this was the most terrifying part of the entire interview. Hannity asked Homan what every American wants to know: just how bad is it? “If the average American, if everyone watching the show tonight knew what you knew… how scared would they be?” Homan didn’t flinch. “I’ve been doing this for 40 years. This is the BIGGEST concern I’ve ever had.” And that’s saying something. He’s dealt with cartel violence, fentanyl, and mass trafficking operations. He’s seen sex trafficking surge 600% and watched fentanyl kill a quarter million Americans. But none of that shook him like this. “Over 2 million known gotaways,” he said. “This scares the hell out of me.” If anyone still believes none of those people came here to do harm? “If you don’t think at least one of them came here to do us harm, then you’re a moron.” This isn’t a partisan warning. It’s a national one. And Homan says it needs to be taken seriously. “This is the biggest issue I’ve seen in my 40-year career,” he repeated. Then he dropped the line that puts the entire threat into perspective. “And it scares the hell out of me. It should scare the hell out of every American.” But there is some hope: “Thank God we got President Trump sitting in the White House—he’s going to take this on 100%.”

The Vigilant Fox 🦊@VigilantFox · Jun 24, 2025RFK Jr. just walked into Congress and set the place on fire. They were not ready for this. Rep. Dingell thought she had Kennedy cornered on drug prices—then he dismantled her argument in one fell swoop. But the real firestorm came when he called out the one Democrat Rep. who took more Big Pharma money than anyone else on the committee. 🧵 THREAD
