Report: Kristi Noem Leads ICE Raids in Northern Virginia After Leak by Reporter (Video)
Gateway Pundit ^ | March 4, 2025 | Kristinn Taylor

Posted on 03/04/2025 12:10:59 PM PST by Macho MAGA Man

Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem led ICE raids in Northern Virginia Tuesday morning that targeted illegal alien gang members as part of a two-day coordinated action in the D.C. suburbs. Details of the raids were leaked by Vanity Fair Congressional reporter Pablo Manriquez who also advised targets on how to evade capture.

Noem posted a statement Tuesday saying the raids would not be deterred by leaks, “We will not be deterred by leaks. If you come to this country and break our laws, we will hunt you down. Successful enforcement operation this morning—getting MS-13 members, 18th Street gang members and perpetrators of sexual crimes off our streets.”

Noem later posted the raids were successful, “Northern Virginia is safer this morning after a successful operation getting criminal aliens and gang members off our streets. Thank you to our brave enforcement officers.”

Why has Pablo Manriquez not been arrested for obstruction of justice?

Just one other comment—have you ever wondered why magicians have beautiful female assistants?

Lol.

Except more than a month in and they can’t keep missions secret.

This leak had Virginia courthouse written all over it because it used the term “judicial warrant” instead of the more commonly used shorthand “warrant”.

Good luck cleaning up every leftist in every courthouse in the country.

Ten years in solitary confinement would be a nice treat for Pablo!
The bastard is obstructing Justice and deserves a strict sentence.

It was done on purpose.

Because when you make so obvious that the illegals are in target and effectively remove them, the rest will leave out on their own.

Flashing blue lights in a rear view mirror make everyone slow down, even if you’re not the one being chased.

Guess I am in the minority here. Noem is a publicity hound and that is all this stunt is. She would better serve the country running DHS overall rather than out “leading raids”. Homan can do just fine without her on scene

That’s the way I see it.

Exactly correct—no magician is going to hire Homan as their assistant.

It is show time!

Lol.

“Noem is a publicity hound ...”

I’m hopeful that she’ll be successful and do a great job. But I have to say that the first time she showed up after confirmation I was embarrassed for her. It was during a raid, and she had done the hair and makeup thing so heavy that she looked like a tart.

That doesn’t impact her work, but it’s ... eeewww.

Pablo should have been arrested with the gang members. Then I would flip the gang members $20 to make Pablo silent.

"She's personally leading raids apprehending illegals. This is a first for a cabinet member to do something like this."

Back in the early days of the FBI, J. Edgar Hoover was catching grief from congress for his lack of operational experience, and ended up participating in a few high-visibility arrests of gangsters. Not an exact parallel, but it gave him the publicity he needed.

Anyways, good for Noem, just hope she actually stays out of the way of the agents who are really doing the heavy lifting.

DOJ needs to arrest somebody in the metro DC area first.

Lol.
