Oct. 16 (UPI) -- Trump administration border czar Tom Homan denied accepting $50,000 and called reports to the contrary "hit pieces" while participating in a live event at The Kennedy Center on Wednesday.
Conservative commentator and journalist Bill O'Reilly asked Homan if he had any response to recent reports that he accepted a $50,000 bribe during an FBI sting in 2024.
"I didn't take $50,000 from anybody," Homan responded, which prompted O'Reilly to ask how the claim "got into the mainstream."
"I have no idea," Homan said. "There's been hit pieces on me since I came back to this administration.
