EXCLUSIVE: Zeteo Story on Dubious ICE Contract Spurs Congressional Inquiry
Democratic Reps. Bennie Thompson and Shri Thanedar want ICE to explain why and how a $2.25 million contract was awarded without competition to a company owned by a prominent Republican donor.

Following a Zeteo investigation into a no-bid ICE contract awarded to a company owned by a Republican donor, Democrats on the House Committee on Homeland Security launched an inquiry on Friday, demanding the Trump administration provide answers about its use of the sole-source contract.
In an oversight letter sent to acting ICE director Todd Lyons, Reps. Bennie Thompson (Miss.) and Shri Thanedar (Mich.) pressed the agency to explain how and why the $2.25 million contract for 25 SUVs was awarded without competition to Hendrick Motorsports LLC, a company owned by prolific Republican donor Joseph Riddick "Rick" Hendrick III.
