Noem says DHS has ID'd two staffers who leaked ICE raids: 'Put law enforcement lives in jeopardy'

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem on Friday announced that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has identified two staffers who leaked information about U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raids.

The secretary did not reveal the staffers who were behind the leaks, but it comes after information was leaked about an ICE raid that targeted the Venezuelan criminal gang, Tren de Aragua.

The secretary told Fox News that the two staffers are expected to face charges.

"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 said in a video message. "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."

A DHS spokesperson told the outlet that the individuals will face up to 10 years in federal prison if convicted. 

Information about raids in Los Angeles has also been leaked to the press recently.
