****BREAKING****Trump Justice Dept. Closed Investigation Into Tom Homan for Accepting Bag of Cash

[DemocratSinceBirth]

Tom Homan, who was later named President Trump’s border czar, was recorded in September 2024 accepting a bag with $50,000 in cash in an undercover F.B.I. investigation, according to people familiar with the case, which was later shut down by Trump administration officials.

The cash payment, which was made inside a bag from the food chain Cava, grew out of a long-running counterintelligence investigation that had not been targeting Mr. Homan, according to the people, who spoke on condition of anonymity to describe the case.

Mr. Homan’s encounter with the undercover agents, recorded on audiotape, led him to be investigated for potential bribery and other crimes, after he apparently took the money and agreed to help the agents — who were posing as businessmen — secure future government contracts related to border security, the people said.

1. So this supports the exclusive reporting by Carol Leonnig and Ken Dilanian (MSNBC)

Carol works for MSNBC exclusively now, and I saw her just now being interviewed. I went to nbc.com and the story was not there. Now more outlets are going to pick it up because the NYT confirmed. Still, she was the first, along with Dilanian.
