A bombshell new report says border czar Tom Homan became the object of an FBI sting last year after an associate suggested to FBI agents that his former boss was ripe for a bribe. According to MSNBC's Carol Leonnig and Ken Dilanian, the Homan associate " Julian "Jace" Calderas" bragged to undercover agents that Homan "could facilitate future government contracts in exchange for big money." Calderas is a former U.S. immigration official who worked under Homan in the Obama administration, noted the Monday report. The report cites anonymous sources to claim that Calderas "allegedly proposed to the agents " who were posing as businessmen " that Homan, in exchange for $1 million, could help them win lucrative federal contracts if Donald Trump became president again."

Donald Trump is blaming the FBI for inciting the Capitol riot, which saw his supporters storm the U.S. Capitol in an attempt to stop the peaceful transfer of power after the 2020 election. Trump ranted on Truth Social, without evidence, that the FBI "secretly placed" 274 agents into the "Stop the Steal" crowd gathered in Washington, D.C., on the day of the riot. Right-wing media reported on Friday that FBI agents were involved in the riot. But those reports conflate the FBI's response to the riot with conservative conspiracy theories hefting blame for the attack onto FBI undercover agents.
