the head of ICE getting filmed accepting $50,000 in what appeared to be cash bribes from undercover agents is the least surprising news ever

> "On Sept. 20, 2024, with hidden cameras recording the scene at a meeting spot in Texas, Homan accepted $50,000 in bills, according to an internal summary of the case and sources."

Tom Homan was investigated for accepting $50,000 from undercover FBI agents. Trump's DOJ shut it down.

The FBI and Justice officials closed the investigation, which a Justice Department appointee had called a “deep state” probe in early 2025.

2/ #broligarchs weighing in to explain that the new standard for running the largest and most powerful law enforcement agency in the united states is now "innocent until proven guilty"

it's possible #TomHoman didn't even commit a crime here, esp. if he didn't direct any contracts once in office, but even more broadly because #SCOTUS has more or less legalized #bribery in the united states (9-0 decision IIRC - look it up)

but it says a lot about Jason Calacanis and the other "besties" in the nerd reich that the think the kind of person who would accept $50k in cash from people under the impression they were paying a bribe should run law enforcement.
