The White House on Monday strenuously denied that Trump administration border czar Tom Homan took an alleged $50,000 bribe he was reportedly caught on tape accepting from undercover FBI agents as part of an anti-corruption investigation last year.
Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt was asked about the allegations against Homan, who according to The New York Times was handed the stack of cash — concealed in a takeout bag from the Cava fast casual chain — by the FBI agents during a meeting in September of last year. The Times reported that the DOJ under Trump shut down the investigation.
