It’s Happened: The United States of America Is No Longer a Democracy

By Michael Tomasky

If you haven’t had time yet to soak in the details of the stunning Tom Homan story that Carol Leonnig and Ken Dilanian of MSNBC broke over the weekend, hold on to your hats. I’d say you won’t believe what you’re about to read, but of course, you will.

 

Last summer, FBI agents in west Texas were conducting an investigation of some sort or another. A subject of that investigation told the agents something that piqued their interest: Tom Homan, the former acting director of ICE and the man who everyone knew would be playing some sort of prominent role in border policy in a future Trump administration, was “soliciting payments in exchange for awarding contracts should Trump win the presidential election, according to an internal Justice Department summary of the probe reviewed by MSNBC and people familiar with the case.”

 

The FBI did what it did in such cases. It set up a sting operation in which agents posing as business executives offered Homan $50,000 cash in a bag. Loennig and Dilanian reported that “multiple people familiar with the probe and internal documents” said Homan took the money.
