2. I am sure reports of Homan accepting a $50,000 bribe from undercover agents has nothing to do with it.

What did he do with the money?

WASHINGTON — The FBI recorded Tom Homan, the current White House border czar, accepting $50,000 in cash last year during an undercover investigation later dropped by the Trump administration, according to news reports.

Homan accepted the money after suggesting he could help agents posing as business executives win government contracts in a second Trump term, MSNBC reported citing sources familiar and internal documents.

The encounter led Homan, who was the acting director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement in President Donald Trump's first term, to be investigated for bribery and other potential crimes, according to The New York Times.
