The White House said on Monday that President Donald Trump fully stands by border czar Tom Homan, after Reuters and other media reported Homan accepted a $50,000 payment from an undercover FBI agent last year in a bribery sting operation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaking to reporters at a press briefing, White House spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt rejected the reports that Homan had accepted such a payment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The White House and the president stand by Tom Homan 100% because he did absolutely nothing wrong,” Leavitt said. She said that FBI agents and prosecutors found no evidence of illegal activity or criminal wrongdoing by Homan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Sunday, two sources familiar with the matter told Reuters that Homan accepted a $50,000 bag of cash from an undercover FBI agent last year in a since-closed U.S. Justice Department bribery investigation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the alleged scheme, Homan promised immigration-related government contracts when he joined the Trump administration in exchange for the money, the sources said, speaking anonymously to discuss nonpublic investigations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Homan rejected the claims during an appearance on Fox News’ “The Ingraham Angle” show, saying he “did nothing criminal” or illegal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I’m glad the FBI and DOJ came out and said – you know, said that nothing illegal happened and nothing – you know, no criminal activity,” he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
