Jeffries demands Trump DOJ re-open probe into Tom Homan

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries on Monday demanded that the Trump administration re-open a shuttered probe into Border Czar Tom Homan's alleged acceptance of a bribe.

“If they want to prosecute or investigate anyone, start with Tom Homan and the fact that he appears to have taken a $50,000 bribe,” he told CNN. “But they want to sweep those charges under the table to allow this guy to continue to unleash mass ICE agents on the American people.”

Jeffries made his remarks while pushing back on President Donald Trump's urging Attorney General Pam Bondi to pursue charges against several high-profile Democrats.

MSNBC reported over the weekend that the FBI filmed Homan accepting a $50,000 bribe from undercover agents and insisting he could help them secure government contracts under the Trump administration.

The White House has called the probe political and insisted it uncovered no evidence of wrongdoing.
