It’s been nearly a month since the public first learned about the bribery controversy surrounding White House border czar Tom Homan, which means administration officials have had plenty of time to come up with answers to obvious questions and talking points related to the burgeoning scandal. They don’t appear to have come up with much......

On Sunday, another prominent member of Team Trump struggled just as much. Politico reported:

Vice President JD Vance sparred Sunday with George Stephanopoulos in a discussion when the ABC host asked about White House border czar Tom Homan. The segment on ‘This Week’ ended with Stephanopoulos saying ‘You did not answer the question’ even as Vance tried one final time to rebut him.

....The matter was under investigation, right up until Trump returned to the White House, at which point the probe stalled. Last month, the case was closed altogether......

With this in mind, Stephanopoulos asked the vice president a reasonable question: Did Homan keep the money, or did he give it back?

STEPHANOPOULOS: I didn't insinuate anything. I asked you whether Tom Homan accepted k as was heard on an audio tape recorded by the FBI in September 2024. You did not answer the question. Thank you for your time.

VANCE: No, George, I sai--

STEPHANOPOULOS: We'll be right back

......The attorney general and the vice president have refused to answer that question, which only makes the broader controversy that much more provocative.

For what it’s worth, the Trump administration could simply release the FBI recording of the undercover agents’ interaction with Homan, which would presumably help clear things up, but the folks who claim to be the “most transparent” officials in the history of the planet have so far kept the tapes under wraps.

As regular readers know, “Release the Epstein files” has been a common mantra for quite a while. “Release the Homan tapes” is just getting started. Watch this space.
