Trump ally Lewandowski faces criminal investigation over DHS tenure, sources say
The DHS Inspector General's Office has been investigating Lewandowski's involvement in the handling of certain government contracts, according to one of the people, a DHS official.
Former Trump adviser Corey Lewandowski is facing a criminal investigation for alleged financial misconduct while serving as a top aide at the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), according to multiple sources. The investigation, initiated by the DHS Inspector General's Office, centers around Lewandowski's involvement in handling government contracts and potential profit from his role.
Lewandowski, who previously served as a campaign manager for Trump's 2016 presidential campaign and advised his 2024 campaign, has denied the allegations of wrongdoing. The Justice Department is currently reviewing the case, though no subpoenas or legal demands have been issued yet. This marks a rare instance of a criminal probe targeting a close Trump ally.
