Border czar Tom Homan on Saturday used a profanity in denying reports alleging he received $50,000 in cash in exchange for contract awards in September of last year.

In response to a question about the allegations from NewsNation's Libbey Dean, Homan said it was "bulls -- ."

MSNBC, citing internal documents and multiple people involved with the probe, said Homan as part of an undercover operation last year had been recorded accepting $50,000 from agents posing as business people. The report said Homan did so after indicating he could help the agents win government contracts in a second Trump administgration.

MSNBC, citing six sources familiar with the matter, said the FBI and Justice Department intended to see if Homan would fulfill his promise, but that the case stalled when Trump won election. The case was later closed by Trump appointees, the network reported.

"This matter originated under the previous administration and was subjected to a full review by FBI agents and Justice Department prosecutors. They found no credible evidence of any criminal wrongdoing," FBI Director Kash Patel and Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said in a statement sent to The Hill.

Other officials within the Trump administration have echoed the same rhetoric and chalked up the probe as "politically motivated."

"Tom Homan has not been involved with any contract award decisions. He is a career law enforcement officer and lifelong public servant who is doing a phenomenal job on behalf of President Trump and the country," White House spokesperson Abigail Jackson said, alleging Homan was targeted by the Biden administration.

Homan has been a key player for President Trump's immigration agenda, which has heavily been focused on mass deportation measures across the country.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has conducted raids at churches, homes and workplaces to swiftly arrest individuals deemed to be in the country without legal status.

Private contractors including the GEO Group, where Homan was previously employed, and CoreCivic have been contracted to manage and operate ICE detention centers while additional outsourcing has been undertaken to speed up the development of new holding facilities in Florida and other states.

Since the start of Trump's second administration, GOP lawmakers have proposed financially incentivized bounty hunting programs to go after illegal immigrants while investors have lobbied for the use of chartered private aircrafts to remove the population of undocumented migrants prior to the 2026 midterm elections.
