That dynamic was on full display during a recent interview involving White House border czar Tom Homan and CBS News correspondent Camilo Montoya-Galvez.
Montoya-Galvez confronted Homan over deaths occurring in ICE custody during the Trump administration. The reporter cited government data and pressed Homan over what he characterized as a potentially record-setting year.
