Revista. Mr.

Homan. Thank you so much for being with univisión.

>> thanks for having me. >> our first question is what's your balance on?

What's going on in the in the border during this first year of the trump administration? >> well, president brought me on his first guy called bring back and yeah he asked me to oversee three things one more secure the border run of deep biggest deportation operation and we've ever seen and three to find these missing children that were released to hold sponsors.

So we're we're at today. We have the most secure border in the history of the nation.

Best border most secure ever so i can see that deportation operation rory arrested important more people in one year to any other administration. That's so we're already having a story deportation operation we got three more years to do that, though.

>> let me ask you about deportation. You just said that those are going to increase next year.

What are the numbers that you're seeing for this. Twenty twenty six.

>> i'm not put a number one , because there's there's so many factors i think with ten thousand more agents. We could it that i again.

It depends on a lot of factors, but we're driving to arrest as many as we can, but continue to prioritized product safety trust and health study threats first. >> many people in our community believe that what's going on in terms of deportation is not necessarily fair that there's a lot of deportation of migrant workers not necessarily criminals is that is that a justifiable.

>> the country in the law. The law says the country illegally will give them the damned core.

Look if the message. We send is that you can enter the country lately.

It's a crime. Don't worry about it.

You can get order removed by judge. You can show up in court or not shopping court.

Get order. Removed by judge.

Don't worry about it. Unless you committed another crime.

You're free to go. If that's the message.

We send. You re never gonna stop the problem.

The reason we have one of the reasons. We have the most secure border in the history of the nation.

Today is because we're doing we're sending a message to the whole world. It's not okay to dance country league.

It's not okay to ignore judges order we're going to force the law. You can create your court in the case that pleads your case in court and let the judge make the determination.

We get to stay or not. >> there's a lot of families watching you tonight here in n n más univisión mothers fathers that have kids and they're worried that an ice agent is gonna come after them is gonna detained them is going to separate them and the only thing that they have done is to work in the united states.

What's your message to them? >> if they're in the country legally.

They need to go to cbp home map make the arrangements on their terms and leave the country and leave themselves open to come back under legal program. We can't condone illegal immigration.

>> so the message for that mother that i was just describing in the question is you better leave the country. If you entered the nation illegally.

>> yeah, because we have to find you only you, then they're statutory bars that prevents you ever come back. >> and what happens if that person has been in the united states for ten years committed a crime.

>> opportunity to see in immigration and tell me. They.

They have they have the right to do processing and tell them a great to judge while they think they deserve to stay and let the judge make the call make the judge make the determination. They have that right every illegal anahí has to do process.

>> i've been talking to young fellows in the protests american citizens whose parents came to nitza states without a visa without a permit and they're in the streets right now in the protests. If you had an opportunity to talk to them.

What would you tell them? >> they start up protesting ice.

Who are enforcing the law? Caltech congress telem congress needs to change the law.

Ice congress. The they they they're trying to hold that the old enforces laws.

They are being paid to in enforces laws congress funding them to enforce these laws so if you're not happy with us doing then go to congress to change the law. That's where they can make a difference to congress said the law don't make sense and they want to be different.

That's what this country is all about so i think the protection of people. >> some people say that this whole new process of immigration in the united states.

It's inhumane including the way that ice works in the cities is that a fair assessment of what's going on? >> oh much more.

So the last administration. There are more than they opened the border up.

Over four thousand. Aliens died making that journey in historic record order over a quarter million americans died from fetanol overdoses of that drug coming across the border a secure border you make secure border saves lives.

>> this administration. It's going on for a year right now many things have happened and a lot of things have been accomplished.

If you have to do this all over again. What would you do different?

>> we've got to be better telling people exactly who were resting and we were resting. I'm i'm going to try a lot harder this coming year to do exactly this have discussions you and i may not agree on things right,
