Anyone else find it ironic that he’s separated from his family while he’s pushing to separate others’ families?

Poetic justice, put it in a song

This timeline has some hack-ass scriptwriters.

Congrats to his wife for kicking him out...

[–] Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 34 points 10 hours ago

I dunno. If I oversaw ICE I would be disappointed in my wife if she didn't poison my coffee.

[–] FoolishObserver@lemmy.world 11 points 9 hours ago

I was wondering if the threats came from his wife.

"The threat is coming from inside the house!!"

My biggest concern here is that he isn't suffering enough.

[–] jared@mander.xyz 29 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

I can't wait for the ICE terrorist trials.

[–] SPRUNT@lemmy.world 11 points 6 hours ago

"Just following orders" is not a valid excuse.

[–] Bytemeister@lemmy.world 23 points 5 hours ago

And he's choosing to stay in charge of a Nazi paramilitary organization instead of keeping his family together.

If you want to know what someone really stands for, look what they will sacrifice in it's defense.

I will say this at every opportunity: They should feel fear.

[–] Etterra@discuss.online 20 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Good. Bad people deserve to have bad things happen to them.

...industrial shredder: quick, efficient, good-enough for baby chickens, good enough for ICE agents...

[–] Ascrod@midwest.social 19 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

I don't advocate the use of death threats - just ask any journalist whether they enjoy receiving those from MAGA cultists.

But sometimes, bad things happen to bad people, and the schadenfreude tastes so sweet.

Probably one of the farmers that are about to go bankrupt from a lack of immigrants to harvest their rotting crops.

Is this the new "I quit drinking excuse" after beating your wife?

[–] leftthegroup@lemmings.world 15 points 7 hours ago

I hope one of those threats gets carried out and the footage goes viral.

I would eat popcorn to this guy's death on repeat.

Bonus points for extra brutality.

[–] BetaBlake@lemmy.world 13 points 7 hours ago

I hope the worst things happen to Tom, he deserves to have his doors blown out and his family forced into the lawn in the middle of the night. He deserves to be beat up in the middle of the road while his face is pressed into the pavement, he should be forced to not have access to medical care while in custody.

Fuck this fascist cunt

[–] Glifted@lemmy.world 10 points 5 hours ago

I'm sure she's relieved

[–] macarthur_park@lemmy.world 9 points 4 hours ago

I mean, he didn’t have to do this and doesn’t need to keep doing it. He could quit his job any time, but he hasn’t.

The only explanation is he hates brown people more than he loves his wife.

[–] elbucho@lemmy.world 8 points 9 hours ago

Good. I'm glad he's living in fear. Fuck Tom Homan.

[–] ThePantser@sh.itjust.works 8 points 9 hours ago

Good, hopefully someone follows through.

[–] notsure@fedia.io 5 points 9 hours ago

...Mr. Homan, only zealots truly believe their position after continued death threats, and holy ones are rare...

[–] ieatpwns@lemmy.world 5 points 4 hours ago

I couldn’t let my job get between my spouse and I

[–] El_guapazo@lemmy.world 5 points 3 hours ago

In other words, she left him

[–] x00z@lemmy.world 4 points 4 hours ago
[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 3 points 8 hours ago

The death thrests are coming from the wife, obvs.

His wife's been sending him death threats?

Oof, that's rough buddy.

[–] corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca 1 points 8 hours ago

Immediately I thought that something else could have driven him from his wife, including her expression on learning what he's become. I think we could ask him that before we're sure, though.
