Publishing a short video to her X account, Dept of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem shared that two of the DHS leakers who were giving operational information in advance of immigration enforcement actions have been identified.

Secretary Noem notes the inside threats have been identified and will be prosecuted for putting ICE and Customs and Border officers at risk.

VIA CBS – The Department of Homeland Security is administering polygraph tests to its personnel to determine who may be leaking information to the media about its ongoing immigration raids, an agency spokesperson confirmed to CBS News Saturday.

On Feb. 18, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said DHS would start polygraphing employees in order to crack down on these leaks.

In a video posted to social media Friday, Noem wrote that the department had “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. We plan to prosecute these two individuals and hold them accountable for what they’ve done.”

The polygraph tests have been taking place for about three weeks, the DHS spokesperson told CBS News. It’s unclear how many employees have undergone them.

Since January, the White House has been aggressive in its efforts to fulfill President Trump’s campaign vow of cracking down on illegal immigration and enacting mass deportations of undocumented immigrants. (more)
