DOJ investigating Corey Lewandowski over alleged DHS contract profiteering

The Justice Department has opened an inquiry into Corey Lewandowski, a former top adviser to Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, over allegations he profited from the awarding of federal contracts while serving in that role. The Department of Homeland Security's inspector general began examining the accusations earlier this year. President Trump has not publicly defended Lewandowski, his former campaign manager, since the inquiry became known.
