Q: "A 75 year old Cuban national died in ICE custody. He had lived in the U.S. for 60 years...Is there anything you can tell us about that?"
Border Czar Tom Homan: "People die in ICE custody. People die in county jails. People die in state prisons."

Tom Homan on ABC does not deny that the administration's position is they have a right to grab people off the street and deport them without a hearing
