Noem stated that these\u200d leakers would face termination and potential prosecution for their actions, which she \u2062described \u200bas detrimental to the safety\u200c of law enforcement personnel. She indicated that the leaks have allowed some criminal elements, including members of the \u200cVenezuelan gang Tren de Aragua, to evade capture during recent \u2064operations.<\/p>\n<p>Noem \u200dasserted that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is employing various tactics, such as polygraphs, to investigate the leaks and hold those responsible accountable. Additionally, she raised concerns about the potential involvement\u200c of agents from the FBI in these leaks, asserting that the FBI is &#8220;corrupt&#8221; and\u2063 that her department will \u200dwork with various agencies to stop the leaks and prosecute offenders. Border \u200cczar Tom Homan supported Noem\u2019s claims, confirming that early indications suggest some of\u200d the leaks originate within the FBI.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_0)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem reported Monday that her agency has identified people who have been leaking the times and locations of Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;I have found some leakers.
