Homan: If Democrats ‘don't like what ICE is doing, then change the law‘
In an interview on Tuesday on the 'Cats & Cosby Show' with John Catsimatidis & Rita Cosby, Homan expressed concern about the rise in violence against U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents and suggested that 'nuts on the left' were, at least partially, responsible.
'I've seen this film before, and I said, with this rhetoric, comparing ICE to Nazis and racists and terrorist groups, I said, the nuts on the left, it's going to embolden them to do something stupid, and we've seen it,' Homan said. 'So, I don't think it's over, unless Democrats, you know, shut the hell up and stop attacking ICE.'
'They need to remember ICE is enforcing the laws that they wrote,' Homan continued. 'If they don't like what ICE is doing, then change the law.'
The interview comes a day after a man opened fire at a U.S. Border Patrol facility in McAllen, Texas, on Monday. Federal agents returned fire and shot the man. A few days earlier, a police officer was shot outside an ICE detention facility in Alvarado, Texas.
'I said over two months ago, if this rhetoric continues, that someone's going to lose their life,' Homan said in the interview, 'either a protester who is turning criminal or violent or it's going to be an officer.'

Spanish-language journalist still in custody a week after bond granted
A Spanish-language journalist has been held in jail for more than a week after a judge granted him bond. Mario Guevara, founder and journalist for MG News, is being held on unlawful assembly, obstruction of police and being a pedestrian on or along the roadway charges after recording a June 14 protest in the metro Atlanta area against Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Guevara, 47, has been shuffled through three detention sites despite immigration judge James Ward's decision to grant him bond on July 1, according to The Associated Press. Guevara's family, per the AP, has attempted to pay his $7,500 bond with ICE three times including online and in person. But all attempts have been denied. DeKalb County solicitor-general Donna Coleman-Stribling also dismissed the three charges brought by Dekalb County police on June 25. Coleman-Stribling said probable cause existed to support Guevara's arrest but there wasn't enough evidence to support a prosecution. Still, the journalist has been shifted from jails in Gwinnett County and Floyd County before eventually being transported to a federal Bureau of Prisons facility in Atlanta, according Guevara's lawyer. 'None of this is normal,' his lawyer, Giovanni Diaz, told the wire. Guevara was held in Gwinnett on traffic charges, which he ultimately paid bond for and was released the same day, AP reported. However, officials in Floyd County, 65 miles northwest of Atlanta, held him for ICE in accordance with their agreement to uphold federal detainers. Diaz now says ICE is challenging Guevara's release to the Board of Immigration Appeals and requested to put a hold on the bond order while awaiting a new ruling. Guevara was standing on a sidewalk videotaping when approached by law enforcement at the June protest. He was wearing a sign that identified him as 'PRESS.' 'At the time of his arrest, the video evidence shows Mr. Guevara generally in compliance and does not demonstrate the intent to disregard law enforcement directives,' Coleman-Stribling's office said of his behavior in a news release per AP. However, a spokesperson for ICE said Guevara did not comply with requests from law enforcement and is in the country illegally. 'On June 14, Mario Guevera, an illegal alien from El Salvador, was arrested by Doraville Police Department for willful obstruction after he refused to comply with local police orders to move out of the middle of the street,' Tricia McLaughlin, assistant secretary for the Department of Homeland Security told The Hill. 'Following his arrest by local authorities, ICE placed a detainer on him since he is in the country illegally.' Guevara's lawyer, Diaz, says he's authorized to live and work in the country while awaiting approval for a green card to be sponsored by his adult son who is a U.S. citizen, AP reported.

Alyssa Farah Griffin reveals she's broken down in tears multiple times from stress as lone conservative on ‘The View'
'The View' co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin revealed on Wednesday that she has cried over stress and anxiety during her time on the show multiple times as the lone conservative panelist. 'I cry at work, but I hide it, my bosses will never know,' Griffin said as fellow co-host Sunny Hostin appeared surprised. Advertisement The co-hosts discussed anxiety and stress levels among Gen Z and a Vice article that said they were dealing with it by spending time in the restroom, which the article calls 'bathroom camping.' 'I have cried at this job at least half a dozen times,' Griffin continued. Co-host Joy Behar asked what Griffin cried about, demanding an example. 'This is a very hard job to do, and I oftentimes have the only opinion that's different at a table of five people,' Griffin said, laughing. Advertisement The conservative host previously worked in President Donald Trump's White House towards the end of his first term but exited the administration and ultimately became a fierce critic of her former employer, replacing Meghan McCain as the token conservative chair. Griffin has been far less likely to have the on-air spats that marked McCain's time, however. She joined her five co-hosts in voting for former Vice President Kamala Harris in the 2024 election. 'The View' co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin says she has cried on multiple occasions as the lone conservative panelist on the show. ABC Advertisement One of the fellow hosts was Ana Navarro, who is a Republican that now almost soley supports Democrats. 'I would like to state, for the record, this is a great job and every time I've cried, Brian gives great hugs,' Griffin added, referring to the show's producer, Brian Teta. Griffin told her fellow co-hosts, 'I cry at work, but I hide it, my bosses will never know.' ABC While Griffin and the co-hosts clash frequently on the show, the conservative co-host also often agrees with her liberal counterparts. Advertisement 'The thing that shocks me, for me, is there is nothing that people should be able to do to you to make you cry,' co-host Whoopi Goldberg said. 'Let us support you, because nobody should be crying at this job. Nobody,' Goldberg added. McCain left the show in 2021. She alleged in her memoir that some of the hosts were 'toxic' and purposefully hostile towards her, and she once cried after a segment when Behar said she hadn't missed her while McCain was on maternity leave.

El Salvador President has a one-word response to Democrats
El Salvador President has a one-word response to Democrats originally appeared on TheStreet. El Salvador President Nayib Bukele made light of new U.S. Senate legislation that would impose sanctions over his country's policies towards Bitcoin, saying Democrats are "just salty" in an X post. President Bukele was referring to the development following the introduction of the El Salvador Accountability Act of 2025, which directly targeted Bukele's regime and El Salvador's cryptocurrency actions. The resolution, introduced in June by Democratic Senators Chris Van Hollen (D-Md.), Tim Kaine (D-Va.), and Alex Padilla (D-Calif.), would apply property and visa sanctions against Salvadoran representatives deemed to have committed acts of human rights abuses or acts that infringe upon the constitutional rights of U.S. inhabitants. The bill also calls for opposition to any financial aid or loans to the Salvadoran government. The bill takes a deeper dive into El Salvador's Bitcoin play, describing it as a possible tool for large-scale corruption, bribery, graft, and sanctions evasion. It requires an evaluation of the nation's use of crypto, including Bitcoin purchases, the use of exchanges, wallet addresses, and its potential use of crypto to evade international sanctions. In response, Bukele posted a screenshot of the bill with the caption: 'HAHAHAHAHAHAHA the Dems are just salty…" El Salvador has centered much of its financial policy on Bitcoin since 2021, when it adopted the currency as legal tender. The government still buys one Bitcoin every day and owns more than 6,200 BTC, which is worth about $678 million at the time of writing. President Bukele says that El Salvador will keep buying one Bitcoin every day until it "becomes too expensive" with fiat currencies. El Salvador President has a one-word response to Democrats first appeared on TheStreet on Jul 9, 2025 This story was originally reported by TheStreet on Jul 9, 2025, where it first appeared.
