I love the energy and intelligence Adam brings, along with his choice of guests. I am going to immediately take Frank's suggestions to call the various subcommittees and demand the investigation of what happened to the $50,000 payment to border czar Homan along with transcripts released regarding the closed FBI investigation of the incident.

Thank you so much. I will also contact these committees and demand the transcript of this CLOSED Tom Homan investigation. This is our taxpayer money so I will ask what happened to it? Or taxpayer money is going to this corrupt Trump regime and they are spending our money to suit the tech bros and their corruption. We the people need to take DAILY actions.

Going to try them out.... this is from their websites.... Message: Ask/tell the Committees & our Congressional Reps that we "want them to get to the bottom of the alleged $50,000 payment" to Tom Homan.

"You want to know what happened to the money and you want a transcript made public of the closed investigation undercover transactions."

There is this on Homeland Security website

We can’t let this act by Tom Homan become forgotten. Thank you for having this topic on your podcast. Frank was an excellent guest.

The landscape painting on the wall behind Mr. Figliuzzi is abstract and well done with broad brushstrokes and a bright palette of desert colors. Did Mr. Figliuzzi paint it?

The artwork on the wall behind Adam is a wonderful abstract painting in in a limited palette of monochromatic colors. As a retired art educator I am so pleased to see art in the environments of lawyers, F.B.I. agents...!

had mentioned was tax payers are footing the bill for not only the now infamous fifty thousand dollars in a feed bag to Holman...but,all the other reckless and I would say terrible things like camp Alcatraz in Florida ... Adding to millions of tax payer dollars while so many are being fired...etc. If I had a magic wand I would,say the magic chant and behold a detailed listing of all the squandered money just since trump got elected. I feel that "following the money" is truly important information especially leading to the midterm elections. And it is Mr. Figliuzzi. not Mr. Gigli!

For us newbies.... to take action.... would be useful to have a link to the Laura Ingram interview mentioned and the names of the Committees/Subcommittees (what are the relevant oversight committees? -- I put them below) and the phone numbers in the written part of the post, along with the specific suggestions for phone calls -- the parts in quotes below are copied from the closed captions of the video....

Ask/tell the Committees & our Congressional Reps that we "want them to get to the bottom of the alleged $50,000 payment" to Tom Homan.

"You want to know what happened to the money and you want a transcript made public of the closed investigation undercover transactions."

Rep, Dem & combined

Homeland Security Committee

House & Senate Intelligence Committee

Judiciary

Note, I've found the Capitol Hill Switchboard to be unreliable... & found 5calls.org & other sources to find the phone numbers more reliable...

House and Senate subcommittees are not fans of giving out their phone numbers, but the number for the capital switchboard is (202) 224-3121. Check to see what subcommittees your senators are on, and call them as this issue relates to them. I called Senator Kelly and Senator Gallego.
