DHS watchdog refers its Corey Lewandowski investigation to Justice Department for review

This story is from the archive. It was covered between 22 October 2026 and 22 October 2026, and nothing below has been updated since. See what is happening now.

Lewandowski, the first manager on Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign, was a top aide to then-Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem before she was fired.

What the coverage shows

Both outlets frame the story as a Justice Department inquiry into Corey Lewandowski. Fox News uniquely says the probe follows a criminal referral from Homeland Security investigators and cites a source, while the New York Times is alone in saying the details of the inquiry remain unclear and in placing it in the context of rare investigations of Trump allies during the president’s second term.
