Overview
- Senate Homeland Security Democrats asked Attorney General Pam Bondi to immediately release documents from the probe, including any audio or video of Tom Homan receiving cash.
- House Judiciary Committee Democrats, led by Rep. Jamie Raskin, demanded all recordings and investigative files and cited reporting that six sources confirmed a recording exists.
- FBI Director Kash Patel and Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said prosecutors found no credible evidence of criminal wrongdoing and that the matter, opened under the prior administration, has been closed.
- The White House denied that Homan took $50,000, and Homan said he did nothing illegal, though he did not directly address the reported cash exchange in a Fox News interview.
- The recordings have not been made public, and the dispute has shifted to a partisan oversight fight as some legal commentators note recent rulings have narrowed public-corruption prosecutions.
