The DNC has accused Tom Homan of accepting a bribe of $50,000 in cash to guarantee the payees get government contracts. They say the encounter was caught on video, but the Trump administration stopped the investigation. Now, the Trump administration has fired back.
Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters, “Mr. Homan never took the $50,000 you’re referring to so you should get your facts straight, number one. Number two, this was another example of the weaponization by the Biden Department of Justice against one of President Trump’s strongest and most vocal supporters in the midst of a presidential campaign. You had FBI agents going undercover to try and entrap one of the president’s top allies and supporters, someone they knew very well would be taking a government position months later. Mr. Homan did absolutely nothing wrong… The White House and the president stand by Tom Homan 100 percent because he did absolutely nothing wrong and he is a brave public servant who has done a phenomenal job on helping the president shut down the border.”

Excerpt:
The White House press secretary on Monday shot down media reports accusing President Donald Trump’s border czar of accepting a $50,000 bribe from undercover FBI agents last year, telling reporters “the president stands by Tom Homan 100 percent.”
MSNBC reported on Saturday that Homan was caught on tape accepting a bag filled with the cash from federal agents as part of an undercover operation in Texas during the heat of the 2024 election.
According to the report, written by RussiaGate hoaxers Carol Leonnig and Ken Dilanian, Homan took the bribe in exchange for helping the agents win government contracts in a second Trump administration.
