Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem revealed that multiple individuals responsible for leaking details about ICE operations have been identified and will face consequences. The leaks, which disclosed the timing and scope of an ICE raid in Los Angeles, disrupted enforcement efforts and gave criminal illegal immigrants the opportunity to escape arrest.
Noem confirmed on Fox News that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has been conducting a full-scale internal probe to track down the leakers. “We have identified some of them, and we are continuing to find more,” she stated, making it clear that firings and prosecutions will follow.

She explained that her agency has been using multiple investigative tools, including polygraphs and communication monitoring, to pinpoint those responsible. Noem warned that leaking classified information about federal immigration enforcement is a serious offense that puts law enforcement officers in harm’s way.

Since President Donald Trump returned to office, his administration has reversed Biden-Harris policies that previously hindered ICE’s ability to detain and deport criminal illegal immigrants. However, resistance from sanctuary cities continues to create roadblocks, with left-wing activists working to obstruct federal enforcement efforts.
Noem called the leaks an act of sabotage, emphasizing that her department is taking every step necessary to prevent such betrayals in the future. “We are not here to play games,” she said.
DHS has not yet disclosed how many individuals have been caught or what agencies they belong to, but Noem assured that further action is being taken.
