Border czar Tom Homan didn't receive a normal background check for his role while his bribery probe was still ongoing: Justice officials felt sure Homan would not be able to obtain a security clearance based on the evidence gathered. It remains unclear how Homan was eventually granted clearance.

The goonish Tom "Bagga Cash" Homan is poster boy for the most corrupt presidential administration in American history, bar none.

The case and its coverup really is a beaut. See:

Lawmakers and ordinary citizens have to keep asking about the bag of cash, or accept an executive branch without any accountability."

In one-hundred years he'll be remembered simply as a cartoonish pig. In the same category as Donald.

It sometimes seems as if "legacy" doesn't matter to these sociopaths.

But rest assured, they want all of it. The money, the little girls, AND the stately marble memorials recalling their "greatness".

Homan and Trump both eat their livers for knowing how much they are hated.

At that point Trump knew Homan was perfect for the job because he'd have to be loyal or face prison. Trump has publicly admitted he's willing to bribe people for their loyalty.

What price ignominy? $50,000 is peanuts in the world of oligarchs and the internet is forever.
