Thomas Homan: Trump’s Disgusting New Immigration Chief – Obama Ties, Exposed Genitals Rubbed On Phones, Gun Left @ Strip Club, Lied Under Oath, Suicides
Late last night, I got news from many upset ICE agents that President Trump appointed Thomas Homan–a man with a history of very blatantly disgusting, unprofessional, and unlawful behavior AND strong ties to the Obama Administration–to the position of Acting Director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). At ICE, Homan is known as “The Clamshell” for exposing his scrotum to employees previously in his law enforcement career. He also lied under oath, rubbed his anus on phones of fellow employees, and left his gun at a strip club while drunk. And under his leadership, several of his employees committed suicide.
Meet Tom Homan the disgusting juvenile f-ckup Trump picked to head ICE https://t.co/6lUSss4Cnd What was Trump thinking???!!! #tcot #gop #ICE

I’m told by some at ICE that this is only temporary, but others think this is an audition for the permanent job. Let’s hope not. Longtime readers of this site will be familiar with Tom Homan’s, um, hijinks . . . any one of which would get anyone in the private sector fired immediately. But there’s more.
Yesterday, Trump rightfully fired Acting Attorney General Sally Yates for refusing to rule that his immigration Executive Orders are legal, despite career Justice Department attorneys holding that they are in fact legal. But in addition to that, many news reports said the President also fired Daniel Ragsdale, who has been running ICE–the agency charged to enforce immigration law. Ragsdale was and remains a bad guy, but Trump didn’t exactly fire Ragsdale, then the acting ICE Director. He just demoted him to Deputy Director. Ragsdale is still there at ICE. And the guy Trump appointed to “run” the place, Homan is pretty bad. Homan has been running ICE’s Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO), which oversees deportation of illegal aliens, for several years during the Obama Administration. And he’s run it into the ground. Maybe that’s why the Obama White House honored the guy with an award.
In 2014, I’m told by ICE agents, five ICE officers and agents committed suicide. Four of them were under Homan’s command in ERO, my sources say. But that’s only a small part of why Tom Homan is entirely inappropriate to head ICE the largest agency in Homeland Security. Sadly, in government, the dung rises to the top. As readers will recall, in 2013, I wrote all about Tom Homan’s career of sickening, juvenile behavior (with apologies to juveniles for the comparison). Here are the high . . . I mean, LOWlights:
DebbieSchlussel.com has heard repeated stories of his disgusting behavior throughout his career at the INS and then ICE. The stories, with identical details, were repeated by several ICE sources who’ve worked with Homan and who cannot believe this person is still employed with the federal government, especially since his outrageous behavior makes him and our national security vulnerable to terrorist blackmail. Many current and former ICE and INS employees who worked with Homan wonder why he’s not on the sex offenders registry for exposing himself to them at the office.
Here are just a few of the Tom Homan “incidents”:
* Genitals-on-Phones:
It is well-known among his ICE and former INS co-workers that Homan used to go into fellow employees’ offices when they were away and rub both ends of the employees’ telephone handsets on his bare butt crack and testicles. Once the victims returned to their offices, sources say Homan would call them, so that the phone handset–now swarming with his genital and anal DNA–would touch their ears and mouths.
Attention, ICE personnel: if Tom Homan visits your office, best to wipe it down with Purell afterward.
* “Look at My Clam-Like Genitals”:
Anyone who worked with Tom Homan at INS in Phoenix back in the 1990s is all too familiar with Tom Homan’s genital area because, sources say, he walked around the office exposing himself. Agents say that he would frequently unzip his pants zipper, expose his scrotum, and say, “Look at the clam! Look at the clam!” (I suppose we should be relieved he didn’t allegedly shout, “Look at the crabs!”) It should tell you something about the former INS that it had an agent who did this . . . and yet that agent was employed until the last day of the INS’ existence. It should tell you a lot about ICE that this agent is now in ICE’s leadership and that his predilection for spreading his nether bacteria and display its “similarities” to sea life didn’t detract from his rise to the top.
* Guns ‘N’ Strippers:
Homan apparently likes to frequent strip clubs. Once, when he was getting a table dance from a stripper, er . . . “exotic dancer,” in Phoenix, he took off his Government-issued gun. And he was so drunk, he apparently left his weapon in the strip club. For those not familiar: law enforcement leaving their service weapons behind for the public is a huge no-no. It’s grounds for major discipline and can also be the basis for termination. But not for Tom Homan.
* Lying Under Oath to ICE Investigators:
Homan bragged to third parties that he lied under oath to ICE Office of Professional Responsibility investigators when they questioned him in an investigation and when he testified at a hearing. The ICE agents for whom he lied were also found to have lied under oath and were fired. And, yet, Homan was promoted. So when Mr. Homan raises his right hand and is sworn in–as he was at the U.S. House hearing I wrote about this summer–it’s meaningless. How do you know he’s lying? His lips are moving.
So how did such a disgusting, immature, and incompetent man like Homan get this job?
Easy. He was hand-picked by former Obama immigration chief John Moron Morton, Morton’s chosen deputy Dan Ragsdale (a gay employee who openly discriminates against straight male ICE agents) to run ICE’s deportation division now known as Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO), and Beth Gibson, another member of ICE’s gay mafia who was a top ICE official at the time. Homan is close with another ICE corruptocrat, the recently retired John Torres, who improperly used ICE resources to get jobs for his pregnant extra-marital girlfriend, pay his baseball idol Tommy Lasorda thousands of dollars for a speech (which had no relevance to ICE), and go to Major League Baseball games (for which he improperly accepted free tickets).
So how did Tom Homan get the job? He retired at the beginning of the year, and ICE agents at headquarters told me they haven’t seen him in weeks. So he knows somebody high up at the Trump White House. Somebody who doesn’t care that Homan was one of Obama’s top immigration non-enforcers . . . the very reason the Obamaniks appointed Homan to head ERO.
Last night on Twitter, several conservatives tweeted (follow me on Twitter) that Homan is a “cop’s cop” and is “eager to deport people.” But how do they know that? Because they read (and eagerly believes) a disgustingly gushing Washington Post article by “reporter” Lisa Rein, which consisted of endless self-puffery quotes by the incompetent Homan. Along with those quotes and the rest of her verbal Lewinsky to Homan, Rein cooed about his “strawberry-blond crew cut and baby-blue eyes.” Eeeuuuww, I just threw up in my mouth a little. Get a room, woman. By the way, somebody needs glasses. That “strawberry-blond” hair left the building a decade ago, Ms. “Reporter.” So, it’s official: Washington Post reporter Lisa Rein is a chubby-chaser. Maybe somebody in the Trump Administration is, too?
. @Reinlwapo Lisa, did u sleep w Tom Homan or just blow him? Ur gushing love ltr "article" on his "baby blue eyes" was gross! #gop #ICE

In any event, Tom Homan is a bad guy with a series of nasty incidents throughout his Government career. He’s a serial malefactor, who shouldn’t be anywhere near ICE’s leadership or anywhere near Government.
Again, even if only temporary, Tom Homan is an example of the sh-t rising to the top. If Donald Trump really wants to drain the swamp, he also needs to flush that toilet.
***
In fairness, one career ICE official whom I respect says that it is good that Ragsdale was pushed out (sort of), and that Homan, who came from the INS, does have experience in deportation and a career of immigration experience. Yeah, it’s all his other, uh, “experiences” that are the problem.
Some sources are also surprised that Trump didn’t pick top ICE official Peter Edge–a much more polished and professional guy–for the job. And they’re surprised that the much-reviled Obama-ite, Daniel Ragsdale wasn’t completely fired, but rather put back in, as a deputy director. He was completely incompetent. What is Trump thinking?

Scary. If this is any indication of what Ted Cruz said, that with Trump we’d get whatever Madame Slickness was bringing, then we’d better buckle up. This is BEYOND scary that this guy is anything but a sanitation man in a town with a population of one.
