Tom Homan, President Donald Trump’s border czar who promised to bring “hell” to Boston, was recorded accepting $50,000 in cash during a September 2024 meeting with undercover FBI agents posing as business executives seeking government contracts, according to multiple media outlets.

The cash was held in a bag from the food chain Cava, the New York Times reported, citing sources who were familiar with the case and spoke on the condition of anonymity. The Homan investigation arose from a long-running counterintelligence probe that was not targeting Homan.

According to MSNBC, which first reported the story, Homan told the undercover agents he could help them get government contracts.

The Department of Justice closed the case because prosecutors doubted they could prove Homan had agreed to a specific act in exchange for the cash, as he was not a government official at the time, according to The Times and MSNBC.

“Kash Patel, the FBI director, and Todd Blanche, the deputy attorney general, said in a statement on Saturday that the investigation “was subjected to a full review by FBI agents and Justice Department prosecutors. They found no credible evidence of any criminal wrongdoing.” The Times reported.

Abigail Jackson, a White House spokesperson, told CNN the case, which was started during the Biden administration, was a “blatantly political investigation,” and said it showed the Biden administration “was using its resources to target President Trump’s allies rather than investigate real criminals and the millions of illegal aliens who flooded our country.”

She added that Homan has not been involved with any contract award decisions.

Homan did not respond to requests for comment from MSNBC, The Times or other media outlets.

The New York Times reported that earlier this year, Homan said he would not get involved with specific contract decisions.

Homan served as acting head of Immigration and Customs Enforcement in the first Trump administration. After leaving government service, he opened a business consulting firm that worked for companies that wanted to get immigration-related contracts, according to The Times. He said he would join the Trump administration if he were reelected.

“At one point, he was paid between $100,000 and $150,000 to lobby in Texas for Fisher Industries, a construction firm that last year secured a $225 million contract with the state to build a section of border wall,” The Times reported.

A target of the original FBI investigation claimed in 2023 that a $1 million payment to Homan “could lead to lucrative federal contracts,” according to sources familiar with the matter who spoke with The Times.

During the transition, officials with the incoming Trump administration who were considering appointments were notified about the Homan investigation, The Times reported.
