The $50,000 bribe was delivered in a CAVA bag. 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, according to multiple people familiar with the probe and internal documents reviewed by MSNBC. 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. But the case indefinitely stalled soon after Donald Trump became president again in January,according to six sources familiar with the matter. In recent weeks, Trump appointees officially closed the investigation, after FBI Director Kash Patel requested a status update on the case, two of the people said. It’s unclear what reasons FBI and Justice Department officials gave for shutting down the investigation. But a Trump Justice Department appointee called the case a “deep state” probe in early 2025 and no further investigative steps were taken, the sources say.
If true, then you must ask yourself, why is the FBI offering bribes to future leaders? The FBI tried to do to him what they did to Michael Flynn. Perfect example of Deep State trying to entrap and eliminate people who aren't cooperative to their interests... or obtain kompromat to obtain control over them later. Liberals still pretend the Deep State doesn't do this type of stuff... how naive.... GOOD DAY
This is explicitly what the "Deep State" is supposed to be doing. Internal Affairs operations are meant to root out corruption, especially blatant ones like this. It's no different than IT sending out phishing emails and making those who click it do training.
