Thomas Douglas Homan (born November 28, 1961)[2][3] is an American law enforcement officer. In November 2024, Donald Trump designated Homan as "border czar" for Trump's second presidency. Homan also served during the Obama administration and the first Trump administration. He served as acting director of the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) from January 2017 to June 2018.
Homan advocates deportation of illegal immigrants and opposes sanctuary city policies. Within the government, he was among the most strident proponents of the Trump administration's family separation policy as a means of deterring illegal entry into the country. After 2018, he began contributing to Fox News as a commentator. Homan joined the Heritage Foundation in 2022 and became a contributor to Project 2025.
In September 2024, Homan was reportedly recorded accepting a bag containing $50,000 in cash from undercover FBI agents posing as business executives. The FBI was investigating allegations that Homan was accepting bribes from border security companies in exchange for the promise of government contracts if Trump won the 2024 election. In September 2025, the Department of Justice closed the investigation, citing insufficient evidence.
