The Twitter CEOโs support is especially noteworthy because it comes from a well-known business figure who is renowned for voicing his opinions on a wide range of social and political matters. Musk has frequently expressed his views on anything from technology to international politics using his platform, and this most recent tweet further demonstrates his support for initiatives to strengthen border security.
Muskโs remarks are indicative of a wider consensus in favour of Homanโs strategy, which has highlighted the necessity of stricter immigration laws and enforcement actions. A policy area that has received a lot of attention recently, Homan has pushed for the employment of cutting-edge technology, additional personnel, and more rules to handle the issues at the U.S. southern border.
