How ironic for the New York Times to worry about piety in view of their concerted efforts to cover-up the murder of 6 million Jews during  WWII.
 

Seems to me the Pope needs a history lesson of his own religion.

Tom Homan agrees with Vance’s take. Asked by a reporter for his take on a controversial post by President Trump where he depicted himself as Jesus, Homan responded, “Look, I’m not gonna speak for the president. I’m speaking for myself, a lifelong Catholic. I wish they would stay out of immigration if they don’t know what they’re talking about.”

Tom Homan was investigated for accepting $50,000 from undercover FBI agents. Trump’s DOJ shut it down.

The FBI opened the case under Biden — Trump’s DOJ is the one that shut it down.

Snopes explicitly says they could not verify the underlying allegation because the reporting relies on anonymous sources and no firsthand evidence was released.   

The FBI itself said it wasn’t confident it could prove the transaction was bribery, which is why the case was closed — according to the New York Times reporting summarized by Forbes...  
 
The White House and Homan deny he ever took the money, and no charges were filed. That’s also in the reporting.

I believe the WH and Homan. They have not steered us wrong yet.

According to September 2025 reports, Tom Homan, the "Border Czar" in the Trump administration, was involved in a federal investigation where he allegedly accepted $50,000 in cash from undercover FBI agents in September 2024. The sting involved a bag of money provided in exchange for promised government contracts. The investigation was closed by the Trump administration

Copilot...why did the fbi not pursue Homan?

Homan was not a government official at the timeThis is a major legal barrier.
 According to the New York Times summary (via Forbes and CNN):

• Homan was not in government when the sting occurred.
• That makes federal bribery statutes much harder to apply, because bribery laws require an “official act” or “public official.”

Without that, the case becomes extremely weak.

So....you sound like the one that is stupid. 

the simpleton’s got his little headline here like Kaplan’s worthless quote based solely on his feefees…

You should take your serial demoralizations with more grace..

I would ask for an example, but we both know how you feel about questions, so I won't bother. 

However, I will grace you with my nuke bombs on you, if you ask nicely.

So you don't have to hold yourself to the same standard that you hold others? 

Got it. Then don't expect others to comply to your demands. Moron.
