FBI accused of abandoning investigation into Homan’s alleged $50,000 scheme, lawsuit claims

A government watchdog group is shaking things up. The Democracy Defenders Fund is suing the FBI to push for the release of a tape that supposedly shows border czar Tom Homan accepting a hefty $50,000 cash payment. Per a report by The Hill, this move comes after the FBI shut down their initial attempts to get a hold of the tape and other documents linked to the investigation into Homan.

The group is pretty clear about why they’re taking this legal action. They believe these documents hold crucial information that the American public absolutely needs to see. It’s all about assessing Homan’s potentially corrupt actions. Just as importantly, understanding if the Department of Justice and FBI made a politically motivated decision to drop the investigation into Homan, who was a key appointee in the Trump Administration.
