Did Homan pay taxes on that $50K? That should be simple for someone to check. 

Is anyone actually disputing that he actually took $50K in cash delivered in a fast food bag? I haven't really seen that refuted. It's just that people either don't care or have offered up a flimsy 'he wasn't in his current role yet' argument. Seems like a high ranking government official knowingly taking bribes should be a bigger deal than it is. 

He wasn't a high-ranking government official when he took the cash since it was before President Trump was reelected. It's speculated that he was appointed Illegal Immigration Czar, or whatever his title, because it requires no Senate confirmation where this would have almost certainly have been exposed.

But yes, I don't believe anyone is really disputing that he took the cash, which is why I wonder if he paid taxes on it. That wouldn't usually arise to a criminal level, Hunter's case was unusual in that regard, but the IRS would be after him for the tax.

That all makes sense, but it would seem that 'taking a bribe' would - or should - do irreparable damage to his reputation/professional career.

In normal times it certainly would.

Reputation? LOL

Have any Trump sycophants maintained their "reputations" outside of MAGAworld?

Which restaurant?  Wonder if the cash had that fried food stink on it for awhile afterwards.

I don't think he did and I also don't give a shit.  To be fair I'm pretty consistent with this stuff. I also don't give a shit FED Governor Lisa Cook committed mortgage fraud either.

CAVA - it’s kind of a Mediterranean style chipotle-type place. Them snd Sweetgreen were probably sad when I moved away from the DC area. I probably ate at both more than I should have.

@aloha-hoosier the FBI looked into the case and closed it.  You use to constantly fight with DBM and call him names when he doubted the FBI during Biden.  Are you a conspiracy theorist now?

Good on you, since she did no such thing.

@snarlcakes Bondi’s DOJ and Patel’s FBI closed it. Neither should have been confirmed and both have given us plenty of legitimate reasons to doubt their objectivity. However, I actually haven’t criticized either of them in this matter. I haven’t said that the case shouldn’t have been closed because I don’t know. I’ve said it’s legitimately shady for Homan to take $50K even if it was determined he didn’t commit a crime and wondered if he paid taxes on it.

Of course she did. She doesn’t even deny claiming multiple different properties as her primary residence. The best they’ve been able to claim is it was an oversight which is farcical.

Fact is we don’t know one way or the other yet. MAGAs will swear she did because President Trump said she did and that’s all they need to know. Trump haters will swear she didn’t because President Trump said she did. Objective people are reserving judgment. This is the first article (and latest) that contains something other than the assertions of the President and an administration official or the denials of her attorneys. It indicates it’s not cut and dried:

@aloha-hoosier 

That's the reporting I've seen. Looks pretty cut and dried to me.

So Biden’s FBI was running coercive sting operations against their political opponents?

 

And you guys are upset that the head of the FCC said something about Jimmy Kimmel?

 

We are not the same, sickos. 

The sicko is the one defending corruption and acting like it isn't the FBI's job to investigate it regardless of party
