In yet another preview of the kind of investigative headaches looming for the Trump Regime if Republicans can’t salvage the Midterms, Senator Liz Warren and Congressman Jamie Raskin on Tuesday sent a letter seeking answers on corruption in deportation industry contracts, writing that fat Donald’s “plans to deport millions of non-violent immigrants have ushered in a ‘gold rush’ for private contractors that provide immigration detention, surveillance, and deportation services.”
“The influx of $170 billion in new immigration enforcement and border militarization funding through Trump’s ‘Big Beautiful Bill’ has resulted in a historic transfer of taxpayer dollars to immigration contractors. We are concerned that some contractors are potentially receiving lucrative, no-bid contracts because of their close ties to high-level Trump administration officials. Notably, President Trump’s ‘Border Czar’ Tom Homan previously ran a firm that helped contractors secure homeland security contracts and, now from inside the government, may be helping his former clients secure federal contracts. Before the election, he allegedly accepted $50,000 in cash in a Cava bag in exchange for the promise that, if President Trump took office, Mr Homan would help certain companies win contracts. Since entering government, Mr Homan reportedly has participated in meetings with immigration contractors about contracts, potentially in violation of ethics rules, and some companies with ties to Mr Homan have been short-listed to compete for lucrative contracts”
