Payoff

Border Czar Tom Homan quickly grew impatient with Kristen Welker questioning him about reports that he allegedly accepted a $50,000 payoff from undercover FBI agents.

In a tense exchange on Meet the Press, Welker — who devoted most of her questioning to Wednesday’s fatal shooting by an ICE agent in Minneapolis — took the opportunity to press the border czar about a topic on which he’s subjected himself to very little scrutiny in confrontational interviews.

“As you know, in an undercover operation in 2024, the FBI recorded you accepting a bag, which was determined to contain $50,000 from agents posing as business executives who said you indicated you could help win government contracts in the second Trump administration,” Welker said. “I want to stress there was an investigation. It was closed, last year. The Justice Department said it found, ‘No credible evidence of any criminal wrongdoing.’ I do want to give you an opportunity to respond, though, Mr. Homan. Where is that $50,000? Did you keep it or did you return it?”

“I didn’t take $50,000 from anybody,” Homan said — flatly denying that he accepted the cash. “And that’s a question for the FBI. I’m not going to give this story any more air. Bottom line, I did nothing illegal. I did nothing. And the FBI and DOJ reviewed this. No credible evidence I did anything, because I didn’t do anything illegal.”

1. He's guilty as sin

There was a reported video. They had him dead to rights. Bondi and Patel made it 'go away'. Criminals, the lot of them.

2. Where's the money Tom, what did you do with it? Let's see your bank records

[Bluetus]

3. well, at least he finally answered the question

but not under oath.

As soon as the Democrats have a majority in the House, this should be one of the first hearings, under oath.

It is a pretty messed up system where the minority doesn't have any opportunity to ask any questions if a person like this.

4. Tom Homan is an idiot to go on Meet the Press

What did he expect, some kind of standing ovation? Of course Welker is going to ask about his alleged payoffs.

5. He is in that job because he is corrupt. Because he is corrupt, he can be used and controlled.
