"I got three words for them: shock and awe," Homan, Trump's pick to be "border czar," said Thursday during an appearance on Donald Trump Jr.'s Rumble show.

"Shock and awe."

Homan, acting U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement director during the first Trump administration, was tapped earlier this week to be "border czar" during his second.

He told Donald Trump Jr. his plan to tighten the border and deport illegal migrants will decrease "alien crime" and migrant deaths at the same time.
