Tom "WC Fields" Homan resembles only physically, not comically. His "up Adam's ass" quip on live Fox was revealing. . nt

I doubt Homan needed any incentive to treat immigrants like dirt, but sounds like trump held that

Trump has no choice but to promote him to Kristi Noem's job. Corruption is a job requirement in the Trump Administration and Homan is simply better at it than Noem is.

It's likely to be true he took the money, but your headline overstates the certainty.
Disclosure: I get your point/goal, but I desperately want for facts to still matter

Not that these freaks have an ounce of shame about their own hypocrisy

Border Czar Tom Homan was caught by the FBI accepting bribes - on camera - to deliver government contracts in exchange for $50,000 in cash.
Pam Bondi knew.
Kash Patel knew.
Emil Bove knew.
And they made the investigation go away.
A corrupt attempt to conceal brazen graft.
