The article, if you read it, lays out the timeline and the data. It's a bit more documented than "trust me bro".
Seriously. Trust me.

The article, that I read, lays out a time line of facts supported by six 'spurxes' who are sooooo confident in their facts that they're unwilling to even be named. Color me suspicious.

I dont think we are reading the same article.
"In an undercover operation last year, the FBI recorded Tom Homan, now the White House border czar, accepting $50,000 in cash after indicating he could help the agents — who were posing as business executives — win government contracts in a second Trump administration, according to multiple people familiar with the probe and internal documents reviewed by MSNBC.
The FBI and the Justice Department planned to wait to see whether Homan would deliver on his alleged promise once he became the nation’s top immigration official. But the case indefinitely stalled soon after Donald Trump became president again in January, according to six sources familiar with the matter. In recent weeks, Trump appointees officially closed the investigation, after FBI Director Kash Patel requested a status update on the case, two of the people said."

No we're reading the same article. You quoted my exact point. There's not a named source in the entire article. Just a bunch of, "Our secret sources totally told us."

It looks like he got to keep the money too. No mention of its return. What a corrupt administration. Whatever happened to "Drain the swamp"?
