‘Give me a break!’ Tom Homan flees reporters as he refuses to deny taking $50K bribe
Border czar Tom Homan dodged reporters at the White House as he refused to say if he took a $50,000 cash bribe in an FBI sting.
Despite finding time for a Fox News interview on Thursday, Homan immediately turned and walked quickly to avoid other reporters at the White House.
"I don't have time today, folks. I'm 20 minutes late," he said.
"Did you take the $50,000 cash in a bag?" one reporter shouted.
"Give me a break!" Homan responded as he fled.
After reports emerged last month that Homan had taken $50,000 cash from undercover FBI agents posing as businessmen seeking government contracts, Fox News host Laura Ingraham asked him about the allegations.
"I did nothing criminal or illegal," the border czar said without denying that he took the cash. The Fox News host declined to ask a follow-up question.
"This response will likely trigger more reporters to ask [the] same question," CBS News correspondent Scott MacFarlane predicted after Homan dodged the question on Thursday.
