The White House is fighting back against explosive allegations that Trump’s border czar, Tom Homan, accepted $50,000 in cash from undercover FBI agents, calling the entire operation a politically motivated entrapment scheme designed to take down a patriotic American.
Story Highlights
- White House categorically denies that Homan accepted $50,000 from undercover FBI agents in September 2024.
- Press Secretary Leavitt accuses the FBI and the DOJ of entrapment and weaponization against Trump allies.
- The investigation was closed by Trump-appointed FBI Director Kash Patel with no charges filed.
- Media reports claim audiotape evidence exists of the alleged Texas cash exchange.
White House Launches Aggressive Defense
Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt delivered a forceful denial of media reports alleging Tom Homan accepted cash bribes from undercover federal agents. Speaking directly to reporters, Leavitt stated unequivocally that “Mr. Homan never took the $50,000” and demanded journalists “get your facts straight.”
The White House characterized the entire investigation as a classic example of the weaponized federal bureaucracy targeting loyal Trump supporters through questionable entrapment tactics.
The administration’s response reflects deep frustration with what conservatives view as ongoing deep state persecution of Trump allies. Leavitt specifically accused the FBI of using entrapment methods and the DOJ of political weaponization, echoing longstanding conservative concerns about federal law enforcement overreach.
This pattern of targeting Trump associates through questionable investigative methods has become a rallying cry for patriots who recognize the systematic abuse of government power.
Suspicious Investigation Timeline Raises Questions
The alleged FBI sting operation reportedly took place in September 2024 in Texas, with agents claiming Homan promised to help secure government contracts in exchange for cash. Federal investigators supposedly monitored Homan’s actions through late 2024, waiting to see if he would act on any alleged promises after Trump’s electoral victory. However, the investigation was conveniently shelved after Trump took office and was completely closed by FBI Director Kash Patel in early September 2025.
This timeline reveals the politically motivated nature of the entire operation, designed to entrap a respected immigration enforcement leader during a vulnerable transition period. The fact that career DOJ officials reportedly doubted their ability to secure a conviction suggests the case lacked merit from the beginning. Yet the timing of the media leaks, coinciding with Homan’s successful work as border czar, demonstrates a coordinated effort to undermine Trump’s immigration agenda through character assassination.
Media Campaign Targets Immigration Enforcement
MSNBC and The New York Times broke the story using anonymous sources and leaked case summaries, claiming audiotape evidence exists of the alleged transaction. These outlets have consistently opposed Trump’s immigration policies and targeted officials like Homan who effectively enforce border security. The reliance on unnamed sources and internal DOJ materials raises serious questions about illegal leaks designed to damage a key Trump administration official.
Tom Homan’s distinguished career includes serving as acting ICE director and implementing policies that actually secured America’s borders, making him a prime target for establishment forces opposed to immigration enforcement. The timing of these allegations, coming as Homan successfully implements Trump’s border security agenda, reveals the true motivation behind this coordinated attack. Patriots recognize this as another desperate attempt by the swamp to undermine effective leadership through manufactured scandals and entrapment schemes.
