Homan to new migrant caravans: 'Congress may be more blue... but the White House is red, bright red.' No one will be released

White House border czar Tom Homan warned migrant caravans heading north through Mexico after last week's elections that none of them will be let into the country, in a Fox News interview posted Wednesday by the White House's Rapid Response account.

"Congress may be more blue, Texas may be more blue, but the White House is red, bright red," Homan said, as Fox showed caravans moving through Tapachula and Metapa de Dominguez in southern Mexico. "These caravans come to the border all they want. They're not going to be released in the United States. They're going to be turned around or prosecuted, then turned around."

Homan said migrants who cross illegally will be charged with a crime, serve their sentence and then be deported. "We're not giving one inch on this border," he said. "So come all you want. You're going to be highly disappointed. And Democrats can't change that."

He also called on Mexico to "step up like they did in Trump 45" and put troops on its borders, noting that it is against Mexican law to cross the country without a transit visa.
