Border czar Tom Homan said on Thursday that his family has been in hiding because of death threats and reporters trying to seek their location.

Law enforcement officers and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents have faced a 1,000% increase in assaults and their families have been doxxed and threatened online, according to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). Homan said on “The Faulkner Focus” that reporters have attempted to identify and locate his family, leading him to move out of his home without his wife for several months.

“I have not lived with my wife since late March because of death threats against me. And now there’s reporters trying to find the location of my family. There are reporters trying to identify who my sons are. This has gone beyond the pale. It’s insulting,” Homan said. “And God bless the men and women of ICE and Border Patrol. When I go to bed every night, I say a prayer for every person out there wearing that shield, that they go home to their families.”

Homan added that he prays for both the agents and illegal immigrants to return home safely to their families, and stated that he does not want to see any “bloodshed.”

In Texas, an ICE officer’s spouse received a phone call saying, “I don’t know how you let your husband work for ICE, and you sleep at night. F*** you, f*** your family. I hope your kids get deported by accident. How do you sleep? F*** you. Did you hear what happened to the Nazis after World War II? Because it’s what’s going to happen to your family,” according to DHS. Three women were charged by a federal grand jury in September for live-streaming their trip to an ICE agent’s home and posting the address on Instagram.

Homan previously stated in November that he would not be intimidated by those threatening his life.

“They’re not going to silence me. Look, I’m going to do this job. I want to do this job because it’s an issue of national security,” Homan said at the time. “So you’re not going to shut me up. I’m not going away, and I’m going to do this job and I’m going to continue talking to [the] American people [about] why it needs to be done.”

An alleged shooter who engraved the words “ANTI-ICE” onto his bullet casings opened fire on an ICE facility and killed two detainees on September 24.

ICE agents have arrested the “worst of the worst” illegal immigrant criminals, including those who committed murder, rape, sexual assaults of children and more.
