'Caught on camera': Senator says 'Pam Bondi knew' about reported 'brazen' bribery scheme

Donald Trump's border czar Tom Homan is a hot topic after a blockbuster MSNBC report claimed Homan had accepted a $50,000 bribe from FBI undercover agents, and one senator says Pam Bondi and others knew about the scheme.
Raw Story reported on Saturday about a MSNBC exclusive in which the outlet claimed that Homan had previously been investigated for accepting $50,000 from undercover FBI agents. That caused U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) to issue a stinging four-word response to Homan.
That set the stage for Golden State senator Adam Schiff, who said, "Border Czar Tom Homan was caught by the FBI accepting bribes - on camera - to deliver government contracts in exchange for $50,000 in cash."

But anyone else who commits a crime goes to the torture/death camps.
Trump's people get very very rich.

(38,773 posts)Chump wasn't elected yet ... but Tom Homan was taking bribes anyway.
Homan KNEW Chump would be president and Homan KNEW he would be appointed as the "Border Czar."
How did he know this? Maybe he was part of the election fraud that was perpetrated last year and has never been properly investigated. I don't know but I want some answers. This demands a thorough investigation and not just for the petty corruption.
How many other of Chump's appointees and Cabinet were part of this fake election? How many were going around asking for bribes before they ever had a job at the White House?
Holy SHIT!!!!

I cant help but suspect that they just dont think theyll get caught. But if and when they do, they expect him to reward their loyalty with a way out.

(1,654 posts)Not only did Homan get his dumb ass caught, he was making money off Trump's name without cutting him in on a share of the bribery profits. That combination might cost him his job unless Homan gets on his knees and gets to work quickly (disclaimer: this quip has nothing whatsoever to do with the genders of the parties involved).

Pam Bondi knew.
Kash Patel knew.
Emil Bove knew.
And they made the investigation go away.
A corrupt attempt to conceal brazen graft.

(103 posts)Amassing a personal fortune by any means necessary is a key reason we see so many sick people enter into positions of authority as a career instead of a desire to offer diligent service to the people of the country. And many of our politicians usually start out by making shady deals with wealthy donors to fund their campaigns. Then, if elected, they make more deals to advance certain corporate interests and get a piece of the action via insider trading and/or further "donations" to some front PAC through which they wash their bribes. And now it's even easier to get their bribes directly paid via crypto. And after they are out of office, many get paid back for favors done while in office by obtaining do-nothing jobs for corporations, think tanks and speaking engagements. The only other scam for gaining such corrupt riches seems to be playing the role of "pastor" in a so-called church which constantly asks for donations for bestowing dubious blessings upon their flock, thereby fleecing them. And as a bonus, all their riches are tax-free.
