Border 911: Misinformation and Political Maneuvering

This chapter focuses on Tom Homan's role as the border czar and his connection to the Border 911 initiative, which disseminates misinformation about immigration at the U.S.-Mexico border. It examines how former law enforcement officials use strategic narratives to influence public perception and political outcomes, framing migrants as invaders to garner support for anti-immigrant policies. The discussion underscores the implications of these practices for immigration policy, electoral dynamics, and societal narratives surrounding border security.
