Two people within the Department of Homeland Security have been accused of disclosing DHS operations amid the Trump administration's mass-deportation plans, Secretary Kristi Noem said.
"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," she said. "We plan to prosecute these two individuals and hold them accountable for what they've done."
"We're going to continue to do all that we can to keep America safe," she added.
Earlier this week, Noem said her agency wasn't deterred by leaks after a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raid was leaked ahead of time. The leaks drew anger from ICE, with one official saying they feared the result of an ICE agent being killed.
Previous leaks to the news media have involved raids in Los Angeles and Aurora, Colorado.
Noem had pointed the finger at the FBI in those leaks.
"The FBI is so corrupt," Noem wrote on X. "We will work with any and every agency to stop leaks and prosecute these crooked deep state agents to the fullest extent of the law."
