they decided it was unserious to call him a fascist, they spent too much time legitimising their own gerontocracy to criticise his fitness, they're too pleased about deposing socialist leaders to condemn that, they're too in love with police power to oppose it

to any politicians out there: the only metric by which i am deciding my votes in any future Democratic primary is how far they're willing to go in punishing this administration and i am far from the only one

![a screenshot of tom homan's wikipedia page. it says: "Obama administration (2014–2016)
Homan was appointed by President Barack Obama as Immigration and Customs Enforcement's executive associate director of enforcement and removal operations in 2013.[7]
By 2014, under the Obama administration, Homan began to argue that separating children from their caregivers would be an effective way to discourage illegal border crossings. The journalist Caitlin Dickerson has called him the "intellectual father" of the policy, which he outlined years before the Trump administration adopted it. "Most parents don't want to be separated", Homan told Dickerson. He argued that this makes separation an effective tool for immigration enforcement: "I'd be lying to you if I didn't think that would have an effect."[9]
In 2015, Obama awarded him a Presidential Rank Award as a Distinguished Executive. The Washington Post wrote, "Thomas Homan deports people. And he's really good at it.""](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:lu244yzbqwvdagt3tdkkp6xn/bafkreih3mnkkk2vl7do5fhoarmn2ozkpf4ubuturaqoahuwrolv4uco7yy@jpeg)
