Tom Homan, the White House border czar, refuted claims made by CNN&#8217;s Dana bash that federal immigration agents were targeting Somali immigrants based solely on their appearance or race. Homan clarified that ICE agents follow strict training on the fourth Amendment and onyl stop individuals when there is reasonable suspicion based on articulable facts,not race or ethnicity alone. This stance aligns with a September 2025 Supreme Court decision that allowed such enforcement operations, rejecting accusations of racial profiling. The aggressive ICE operation in Minneapolis and St. Paul targets Somali nationals with final deportation orders, related to a <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >large fraud case involving<\/a> over $1 billion stolen from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/biden-banking-on-3-6-trillion-tax-increases-to-fund-agenda-plans\/\" title=\"Biden Banking On .6 Trillion Tax Increases To Fund Agenda Plans\">social services programs<\/a> by mostly Somali individuals. The political debate includes Minnesota&#8217;s Democratic Governor Tim Walz criticizing the federal response as a &#8220;PR stunt,&#8221; while Trump accused Walz of failing to address the fraud problem.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>White House border czar Tom Homan pushed back Sunday after CNN&rsquo;s Dana Bash suggested federal immigration agents are stopping suspected illegal immigrants based on their skin color.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this week, the Trump administration rolled out a major Immigration and Customs Enforcement operation in Minnesota&rsquo;s Twin Cities, surging about 100 federal agents into Minneapolis and St. Paul to target illegal alien Somali nationals with final deportation orders.
