MSNBC is reporting that former Trump immigration chief Tom Homan got caught up in a federal sting after being steered into a shady contracts-for-cash scheme by one of his own associates. According to four sources familiar with the investigation — and a government document reviewed by MSNBC — FBI agents repeatedly targeted Homan through a contact who pushed him toward the deal.
Homan, who became a right-wing celebrity during the Trump years for his hardline immigration stances and brutal ICE raids, has long been a favorite in MAGA circles. Now, this revelation raises serious questions about the culture of cronyism and backroom dealing that followed him out of the Trump administration.
The reporting, led by Carol Leonnig, Ken Dilanian, and Jacob Soboroff, underscores how figures tied to Trump’s harsh immigration agenda continue to find themselves under federal scrutiny. It’s yet another reminder that the Trump orbit often blurred the line between public service and personal enrichment — with disastrous consequences for immigrant families and now, potentially, for Homan himself.
