A Stunning Reminder That This Bunch Always Gets Away With It

 

WASHINGTON Sept. 2025 -- The Justice Department shut down its probe into allegations that Trump border czar Tom Homan accepted a Cava restaurant bag containing a $50,000 cash bribe last year.

The alleged payment to Homan was made as part of a sting by undercover FBI agents during the Biden administration, with the G-men presenting themselves as businessmen seeking border security contracts with the federal government. Homan allegedly promised he'd use his influence on their behalf.

In dismissing the investigation, the DOJ reasoned that since Tom Homan wasn't a Federal employee at the time, no foul, no problem.

Maybe next Tuesday will slow down the open corruption. It won't stop it, at least not for two more years, but slowing it down would be welcome. Hauling a few people in for a dressing down in Congress. For what good that will do, since DJT owns the Justice Department as his dual hit squad/shield from accountability, and will most likely continue to own it until January 20, 2029, I don't look for a lot of actual justice calling the most egregious malefactors to account, like Jared Kushner, the son-in-law who became an international negotiator for "peace" and who, just incidentally, has certainly been taking a piece: Some of his financial relationships are documented, notably the $2 billion Saudi investment in Kushner's private equity firm after he left the White House. The new book by Matthew Cole (Princes and Thieves) alleges that foreign leaders -- mostly potentates in the Middle East -- provided billions through secret accounts for Kushner's personal use and to influence diplomacy. 

Tom Homan was on the make. Kushner's been on the make. They're all on the make. It's grotesque. It's got to end.

Greed and corruption is the cause of the "Affordability" issue. Wish Democrats would put the blame there.

From Yahoo.During the Obama administration, Homan held senior leadership roles in U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. He first served as an assistant director for Enforcement and Removal Operations, a division of ICE, then as the deputy executive associate director of ERO and finally as the executive associate director of ERO. In 2015, Homan received the Presidential Rank Award for distinguished service alongside 42 other government executives."
