Homeland Security Secretary Christie Noem on Tuesday said her agency was “not deterred” by leaks after the Immigration Customs Enforcement (ICE) attack was leaked in advance.
“We will not be stopped by leaks. If you come to this country and break the law, we will corner you,” Noem said in X.
She pointed out that she said it was a successful operation carried out with gang members on MS-13 and 18th Avenue and sex criminals.

Immigrant insiders reported Sunday that raids were planned in northern Virginia on Monday and Tuesday, with agents obtaining 75 to 100 warrants.
“The judicial warrant means that the ice can enter your home, so plan accordingly,” outlet editor Pablo Maniques said in X.
Mutual Aid for Immigration Solidarity also reported where ice activity could be expected and urged followers what they should do when they approach the ice.

The leaks sparked rage from the ice, and one formula told Fox that he feared that the ice agent would be killed.
Previous leaks to news media include attacks in Los Angeles, Colorado and Aurora.
Manriquez told Fox News Digital that it was “breaking the news” as he was being asked if Fox News Digital wanted to prevent attacks or make other consequences effective.
When asked why he thinks there are so many leaks, Manriquez said he doesn’t know the answer, but said, “If people want to send me a scoop, I’m here for it.”
He also rejected concerns that agents could be harmed by revealing details of the attack.
“We always break immigration news. We follow this topic very closely and have not seen reports of ice being damaged,” he said.
Border Emperor Tom Homan said last month that the administration was being shut down to the person responsible for leaking the Aurora attack.

“The FBI is very corrupt,” Noem wrote to X.

Last month, Homan confirmed that “some of the information we receive tends to lead to the FBI,” and promised the results to those deemed responsible.
Attorney General Pam Bondi reiterated Homan’s concerns in another interview on “Fox Report.”

“If someone leaks something, people don’t understand that it puts our great men and women at risk in law enforcement,” Bondy said. “If you leak it, we’ll find out who you are and we’ll follow you.”
