White House Border Czar Tom Homan said Monday that he has gotten calls from progressives in liberal cities, requesting Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents to be in blue cities to deal with illegal immigration. 

"It's happening every day," Homan answered on the "Just the News, No Noise" TV show when asked if he gets calls from liberals about coming to cities. "I got requests this morning: 'Please come back to Boston. Please come back to Chicago. We got more work to do in Rochester. Please come to Seattle.'"

Homan served as the acting ICE director during President Donald Trump's first administration and is now the "border czar" and is in charge of the U.S. borders and getting illegal migrants out of the country.

"I get those emails every day," Homan said. "I had to shut down my LinkedIn account because it's just inundated. But people are reaching out to the media, reaching out to the White House... they want ICE action in their communities too."

He said that the administration is working on getting more ICE agents into cities.

"We're staffing up teams right now," he said. "We're increasing the amount of teams nationwide. We're going to  flood the zone. So we'll get there sooner or later. So just stand by. We're coming."
