"In an undercover operation last year, the FBI recorded Tom Homan, now the White House border czar, accepting $50,000 in cash after indicating he could help the agents who were posing as business executives win government contracts in a second Trump administration. The FBI and the Justice Department planned to wait to see whether Homan would deliver on his alleged promise once he became the nation's top immigration official."
"McCarthy was unmoved by the following statement about the case issued by Patel and Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche: This matter originated under the previous administration and was subjected to a full review by FBI agents and Justice Department prosecutors. They found no credible evidence of any criminal wrongdoing. The Department's resources must remain focused on real threats to the American people, not baseless investigations. As a result, the investigation has been closed."
An undercover FBI operation recorded Tom Homan accepting $50,000 after indicating he could help agents posing as business executives win government contracts. FBI and Justice Department officials planned to wait to see whether Homan would deliver once he became top immigration official. The case stalled soon after Trump returned to the presidency and was later closed after Trump appointees reviewed the matter following a status request from FBI Director Kash Patel. The Justice Department stated agents and prosecutors found no credible evidence of criminal wrongdoing. Andy McCarthy urged congressional investigation and said the reported facts 'sound bad' while acknowledging insufficient information for a legal judgment.
