    The US Department of Justice (DOJ) is investigating whether Corey Lewandowski, a top aide to former DHS Secretary Kristi Noem, personally profited from his role as a special government employee until March. The probe relates to contracts signed under Noem's leadership, including allegations that Lewandowski approved DHS contracts without legal authority and put grants involving FEMA on hold. Lewandowski's attorney, Adam Trigg, stated Lewandowski denies any wrongdoing and has not been contacted by the justice department. Trump said he wants his people to be honest and that those who are not will be prosecuted.
