In this episode of The Alex Marlow Show, Alex sits down for an extended, unfiltered 45-minute interview with Tom Homan, the former acting director of ICE and one of the central figures shaping President Trump’s border and immigration policies. Listeners get a rare, deeply personal look at the man behind decades of frontline law enforcement experience — a leader who has seen firsthand the human cost of America’s border crisis.

Homan opens up about his 40 years of service — from his early days as a Border Patrol agent to leading ICE — and the tragedies that have defined his career. He recounts haunting memories from the field, including the deaths of migrants in the back of a sweltering tractor trailer and the abuse of young girls trafficked by cartels. These experiences, he explains, fuel his relentless drive to secure the border and protect both Americans and migrants from further suffering.

The conversation moves from personal conviction to policy, as Homan and Alex dive into the dramatic turnaround under the Trump administration, which he says reduced illegal immigration by 96%. Homan credits Trump’s decisive executive actions and support for frontline agents, while condemning California’s sanctuary policies and what he calls the “open-borders ideology” of Democratic leaders like Gavin Newsom and Karen Bass. He argues that there’s “no downside to a secure border,” highlighting the link between border enforcement, public safety, and national security.

Throughout the interview, Homan outlines a roadmap to fix America’s immigration system permanently — reforming the asylum process, the Trafficking Victims Protection Act, and the Flores Settlement Agreement — changes he believes would solve 85% of the crisis. He also details ongoing ICE operations targeting criminal aliens, efforts to encourage self-deportation, and the challenges posed by sanctuary cities that, in his view, “protect criminals, not communities.”

In one of the episode’s most urgent segments, Alex and Homan discuss the growing dangers facing law enforcement, referencing the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk and a disturbing rise in attacks on ICE officers. Homan warns that inflammatory rhetoric from politicians and media figures labeling ICE agents “Nazis” and “fascists” is fueling real-world violence, while hinting that the Department of Justice is investigating potential organized funding behind far-left extremist actions.

Homan remains steadfast despite the threats — to himself, his family, and his agents — vowing to “keep doing the job the president promised the American people.” His goal, he tells Alex, is simple but absolute: a border secure enough that “no national security threat or public safety risk is walking our streets.”

Alex closes the episode by calling the conversation “one of the most important interviews I’ve ever done,” thanking Homan for his service and for sharing such a candid perspective on the front lines of America’s border war.
