DHS spent over $1 billion buying 11 warehouses for ICE detention. They paid 11 to 13 percent above market across the board. In Salt Lake City, $145 million for a building appraised at $97 million. Many cannot even flush a toilet. The IG is now investigating allegations that Corey Lewandowski tried to extract personal payments from contractors. This is what real corruption looks like.
