Tom Homan Threatens Prosecution Against NJ Gov Over Migrant Comments

Tom Homan, President Trump's border czar, threatened to prosecute New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy after Murphy suggested he might house an undocumented migrant above his garage. During a forum at Montclair State University, Murphy remarked that he and his wife considered offering shelter to a friend concerned about her immigration status, commenting, 'good luck to the feds trying to get her.' Homan responded on Fox News, labeling the governor's comments 'foolish' and asserting that knowingly harboring an illegal alien is a violation of federal law. Following backlash, Murphy's office clarified that no one had ever lived in the garage and that his comments were misinterpreted. This exchange reflects escalating tensions between New Jersey and the Trump administration over immigration enforcement. The situation is emblematic of the broader conflict regarding sanctuary policies and federal immigration laws.
