Newsom Mocks Trump Trading 'Nazi-Cosplayer' for 'Mr. Bribes'

Newsom Mocks Trump Trading ‘Nazi-Cosplayer’ for ‘Mr. Bribes’

https://www.thedailybeast.com/newsom-mocks-trump-trading-nazi-cosplayer-for-mr-bribes/

The 55-year-old commander and hundreds of Border Patrol agents will leave the city on Tuesday, while ICE officers are expected to remain on the ground.

Trump’s attempt to recalibrate underscores the frustration within the White House that his signature election policy has now become a major source of outrage.

But Newsom ridiculed the personnel shake-up, writing on X: “In an effort to de-escalate, the Trump Admin is benching the Nazi-Cosplayer for Mr. Bribes.”

The comment was a reference to the fact Homan was investigated by the FBI in 2024 for allegedly accepting a $50,000 cash bribe from undercover agents posing as businessmen seeking future government contracts.

Go, Newsom! Too many are buying this BS. Not Dems(that I've heard anyway) but the corporate media. They are allowing the administration to spin this as accountability. It's just "rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic" to quote Ron Filipkowski.
