In a bold move to protect national security and enforce immigration law, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem announced on March 7, 2025, that her department has caught two individuals guilty of leaking sensitive operational details about ICE raids. Noem made it clear that these criminals will be held accountable, facing up to 10 years in federal prison.
This decisive action comes amid rising concerns that internal sabotage is undermining efforts to crack down on illegal immigration. While the Biden administration allowed lawlessness to fester, Noem is showing that under her watch, law enforcement will be protected and justice will be served.
Taking to X, Noem didn’t hold back.
“We have identified criminal leakers within @DHSgov and are preparing to refer these perpetrators to the @TheJusticeDept for felony prosecutions. These individuals face up to 10 years in federal prison. We will find and root out all leakers. They will face prison time & we will get justice for the American people,” she declared.
She followed up with a video message, further emphasizing the gravity of the situation.
“Hi everyone, I wanted to give you a quick update. We have identified two leakers of information here at the Department of Homeland Security who have been telling individuals about our operations and putting law enforcement lives in jeopardy,” Noem stated. “We plan to prosecute these two individuals and hold them accountable for what they’ve done, and we’re going to continue to do all that we can to keep America safe.”

DHS spokeswoman Tricia McLaughlin reinforced Noem’s stance, saying that the agency is moving swiftly to refer the leakers to the DOJ for prosecution.
Patriotic Americans wasted no time in showing their support for Noem’s firm stand against corruption.
“Thank you, thank you, thank you, Secretary Noem. The two individuals put our law enforcement officers in danger and should go to prison. They are a danger to the community,” one supporter wrote.
“Well done Sec. Noem! Lock them up for life! They should really be tried with treason,” another added.
One commenter didn’t mince words: “I have to be quite honest with you… I appreciate everything you’re doing, but we’d really like to see them walked out in handcuffs and shackles on national television. I think it would send a message.”
This development comes on the heels of left-wing journalist Pablo Manríquez, editor of *Migrant Insider*, leaking details about upcoming ICE raids in Northern Virginia.
“ICE RAIDS are planned for Monday & Tuesday in Northern Virginia, per multiple sources who tell us ICE has obtained between 75 and 100 judicial warrants,” Manríquez posted.
Rather than expressing any remorse for endangering ICE operations, Manríquez doubled down with an arrogant response, mocking critics:
“Funny thing about all these bros b*tching about my scoop is that none have asked for an interview. They aren’t news people because they’re not even trying to find out anything new. They’re just mediocre keyboard warriors with bully pulpits that are too easy to ignore,” he sneered.
Noem’s crackdown is a much-needed step in restoring law and order after years of Democrat-led weakness on illegal immigration. With leakers facing prison time and ICE able to operate without sabotage, America is finally seeing leadership that prioritizes national security over political correctness.
