‘We’re Not Here To Play Games’: Noem Says DHS Found ‘Leakers,’ Details How Agency Caught ‘Sell-Out’ Bureaucrats
Daily Caller ^ | 24 Feb, 2025 | Hailey Gomez

Posted on 02/25/2025 6:42:01 AM PST by MtnClimber

Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said Monday evening on Fox News that her agency has identified some of the “leakers” responsible for releasing internal information.

On Feb. 10, Noem suggested that “corrupt” FBI agents were behind a leaked memo about an upcoming “large-scale” Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raid in the Los Angeles area, which was obtained by the Los Angeles Times. With border czar Tom Homan echoing the secretary’s suspicions a day later, Noem said on “Hannity” that “some” of the internal leakers had been caught, but she did not specify which agency they belonged to or how many there were.

“I have found some leakers. We are continuing to get more. They will be fired. There will be consequences. And, remember, when they leak information to the press in order to blow an op, they are putting law enforcement lives in jeopardy,” Noem said. “They are risking their lives and putting their families in the position where they have to live without those individuals any further.”

Wake me when the (R)N(C)’s balls drop & they PROSECUTE, instead of merely ‘firing’ (w/ all bennies+)

I wish they wouldn’t detail how they caught the criminals, and kept it secret so that they can continue to find the bad guys without them realizing how and adjusting their actions to thwart the investigations

Put them in jail. Firing them is not enough. Put them in prison and be very public about it. They could have killed someone.

yup, though realistically,

that may be what the left want.

The FBI was turned Blue and thoroughly politicized, as well as made woke during the Obama / Holder / Lynch / Comey era.

Wray may not have caused this, but he didn’t fix the problem.

Recruiting (it was sold as making the FBI represent the American public) and promotions into senior management assured that trend.

Folks that didn’t play along were fired, retired, moved to irrelevant positions. The MSM wasn’t in any sort of uproar when that happened under Obama. In fact, the MSM sold it as a favorable trend, purging those right wing islamophobic jerks from the FBI, example: https://www.wired.com/2011/09/fbi-muslims-radical/

Fact is, if you read the briefing as I did, it’s all well sourced, gives examples, etc. These were factually accurate and relevant briefings that were purged because they didn’t make some people “feel good.”

IMHO, the climate created in those 8 years was so horrible that there was a “fear” to go after such cases and this contributed to situations like the Boston Marathon Bombing (2013). You had purges where training manuals and briefings were deleted. Policy changes, training changes, even the mere term Global War On Terror (GWOT) was struck from the FBI vocabulary.

Did the field agents interviewing these two brothers really dig as hard as they should have, considering the direction of the political winds?

Is it really shocking that the formal warnings by the Russians that these two brothers were trouble got buried and ignored in that era?

However, you did see a wave of female social workers and teachers become special agents. Blacks, women and Latinos get promoted into senior ranks and that was a success according to those at the top.

America began paying the price of this woke nonsense years ago, but especially now with some of the incidents of late (preventable accidents), people are begining to wake up to this fact.

Arrest them, send them to Gitmo, and throw them in with the general population down there.

Pleasant thought, but I doubt it. I can’t imagine any sane person wanting to live there.

Those tests can’t be trusted. Even quasi-retarded perps, and sociopaths, beat polygraphs.

What I’m looking forward to are the days when ETs arrive and teach man how to use their telepathy to read minds, the day when lies and secrets are no more. No longer will speaking be necessary. Polygraphs are not the end to end all, but tools to use in getting to the truth. Right now I read agents in the Bureau are wiping hard drives and destroying paper files to cover their corrupt activities, so, I say, crank up the polygraphs on these crooks.

Perhaps they’re building a case?
First you identify the culprits, then, you see what else they’ve been up to, and who they communicated with.
Then you bring the strongest charges possible. This doesn’t happen overnight.
Give these people some slack, they’re doing exactly what we want them to do.

ya well for 4 years they have arrested people on our side and then searched for their crimes. now, crimes have been committed, and instead of arresting people and while incarcerated, search for other crimes they do nothing at all. all the fraud we have heard about so far and not one single person has been named, accused, arrested, implicated etc... is absolute bullshit and I for one would like to know why...

Good. Is there a lottery for the firing squad or can anyone join in?

Since Jan 20 more than 4000 homes have gone on the market in DC. It will not be long and the fair impartial jury will be possible there.

Ditto that. I want to see 100,000 homes on the market. That's real progress in draining the putrid swamp.
