re: Trump Justice Dept. Closed Investigation Into Tom Homan for Accepting Bag of Cash

He didn't do anything. It was investigated and closed.
It was just another lawfare attempt. Democrats have no credibility.

Well, it’s not true. Which you know. Which is why you are a disgusting human being. And I truly hope karma comes around. It will because it always does.
You are an odd, hate-filled person.
I have no idea what the truth here is. I don't trust MSNBC or the Biden DOJ in the least.
OTOH, is the Trump Administration saying the $50,000 wasn't received by Homan OR that it wasn't illegal to accept the $50,000?

I'm not aware of them addressing it at all. What problem do you have with a private citizen receiving money?

If he took money and gave nothing in return, no crime. See Skillet decision.

It's an illegal bribe if a private citizen accepts money for what he promises to do once he became a public employee. That's what the allegation is.
The allegation might be a complete fabrication...but, if there wasn't an exchange of $50,000, wouldn't you expect the Trump Administration to say that?
It sounds like the paper trail with the money is too well-established to deny that. It would remove the appearance of corruption if the DOJ gave SOME explanation as to WHY it wasn't illegal...either the facts as alleged are wrong OR the $50,000 was legal "because X."

What's the evidence that this happened? There is no duty to address a groundless accusation dreamed up by corrupt hacks

The DOJ has already addressed it. They gave a vague answer which will let the appearance of corruption fester among people who care about such things.
Until the DOJ gives more specifics the issue will remain a political asset for the Left.

Nope. He can promise all day long but if he does nothing, no crime.

Even if Tom did this, he is still the best person for the job he has, and liberals are the only reason he is needed for this job.

No. It won't.

I have spent way too long looking into it and couldn't find a specific FEDERAL case addressing this. There a state cases where private citizens were convicted for promises they couldn't keep.
My reading of the federal statutes leads me to believe that IF THE FACTS ALLEGED in the MSNBC report are true (I don't trust MSNBC) that Homan would be guilty of bribery conspiracy. It's not worth wasting any more time on a Sunday researching what is irrelevant: the Trump DOJ isn't going to prosecute Homan or even explain further why they are not.
IF what MSNBC alleges is truthful, it would be interesting to see the receipt for the $50,000. Every time Kash testifies in front of a Democrat they are going to ask if the agent who signed for the 50k has been fired.

Not AggieHank and I just brought up the report that OP referenced. I hadn't seen it. I figured it was relevant to the discussion.

There is none. This was investigated by Biden's DOJ and mothballed. It was a lawfare attempt, nothing more.

No, it wasn’t. It was opened under Biden. Trump’s DOJ found no evidence.

Strongly disagree on that one. Drain the swamp, not support it
Then every member of Congress needs an investigation opened up on them. Too many millionaires in Congress being made on a salary of $174,000 per year. If we want to investigate ONE, we must investigate ALL.
Let's just start with those committing mortgage fraud first.

It was the Biden DOJ that said there was no credible evidence and wouldn't bring charges.

You give a shite, that’s why you brought it up.

Guilty until proven innocent, right?
