As Democrats demand investigations and accountability after a pair of fatal shootings by immigration<\/a> agents, the White House<\/a> border czar, Tom Homan, issued an ominous warning on Wednesday: Shut your mouth or the \u201cbloodshed\u201d will continue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since July 7, Immigration and Customs Enforcement<\/a> (ICE) agents have shot and killed two men\u2014Lorenzo Salgado Araujo<\/a> in Texas<\/a> and Johan Sebasti\u00e1n Guerrero<\/a> in Maine<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The killings, which are part of a broader rash of violent behavior<\/a> by immigration agencies, briefly led DHS to suspend the use of traffic stops by agents, before President Donald Trump<\/a> ordered<\/a> them to continue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, Democratic lawmakers have promised to launch investigations<\/a> and congressional hearings<\/a>. Some have threatened to withhold funding for the agency unless reforms, like body camera requirements, are enacted, while others have called for the agency to be defunded or abolished.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Homan, a senior adviser to Trump tasked with coordinating immigration enforcement across agencies, took to Fox News on Wednesday night to address this heightened scrutiny.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
