"How did that get into the mainstream, do you think? O'Reilly asked. I have no idea, Homan responded. Look, there's been hit pieces on me since I came back to this administration. There's got to be 30, 40 hit pieces about me, about how I'm involved with the contract intergovernmental contracts, when in fact Day one, I came back. I recused myself from any discussions, any contract, or any monetary decisions like that because I used to have a company that did consulting."
"The comments are the first known instance in which Homan has denied accepting the cash. In his first comments after the reports surfaced, Homan told Fox News host Laura Ingraham he did not commit an illegal act, but never said he didn't take cash. Look, I did nothing criminal. I did nothing illegal, responded Homan. It's hit piece after hit piece after hit piece and I'm glad the FBI and DOJ came out and said, you know, said that nothing illegal happened, no criminal activity."
Tom Homan explicitly denied taking $50,000 from anyone while speaking at a NewsNation town hall and said he had no idea how that claim entered the mainstream. Homan said he recused himself from any contract or monetary discussions upon returning to the administration and that he accepted a significant pay cut to serve. Homan previously stated he did nothing criminal and noted FBI and DOJ statements that no criminal activity occurred. Reports allege Homan told undercover FBI agents he could secure government contracts in a second Trump administration and that a cash transaction was reportedly recorded on audio.
