Staff Reports
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem isn’t holding back when it comes to addressing the FBI’s alleged role in leaking details about an upcoming ICE raid in Los Angeles. While the Los Angeles Times gleefully reported that an internal document outlining a “large scale” Immigration and Customs Enforcement operation was released, Noem may have hit the nail on the head by pointing fingers at the so-called “corrupt” agents within the FBI. It seems that, rather than securing borders, the FBI is playing a game akin to a leak-fest in the Spygate era.
Noem didn’t mince words on social media, suggesting that she intends to take matters seriously when it comes to prosecuting those who let details slip. Her commitment to working with every agency indicates a zero-tolerance policy for the kind of bureaucratic backdoor dealings that have made enforcement operations less effective. After all, if the FBI can’t keep its mouth shut—much less be trusted with secrets regarding operations that are supposed to catch illegal migrants—then something has to change. The “deep state” isn’t just a conspiracy theory; it’s turning into a reality show with the agents as the stars.
The situation is further complicated by the fact that Los Angeles is a sanctuary city. This designation naturally creates additional hurdles for ICE as they navigate a local landscape that seems more focused on protecting criminal illegal migrants than actual law-abiding citizens. So, when the FBI is implicated for leaking operational plans, it becomes laughable that a city designed to shield illegals could thwart such essential law enforcement tasks. What’s the irony? The very agencies meant to uphold the law are playing hide-and-seek with criminals.
Kristi Noem just dropped some truth bombs.
She says corrupt @FBI agents leaked details about an ICE raid.
Shocking, right?
Why are they protecting the real criminals?

This isn’t the first time the FBI has been accused of sabotaging ICE operations. Under the Trump administration, leaks about ICE raids were rampant, providing criminals with a heads-up. It is quite the paradox that the very institutions meant to ensure public safety are somehow undermining that mission. Tom Homan, who held the title of Border Czar, remarked that when these operations are compromised, more “bad guys” slip through the cracks and remain on the streets. Rather than heroes, they seem like villains in a poorly written crime story.
Unfortunately, the Biden administration has turned immigration enforcement into a surreal circus. With around 8.5 million migrant encounters occurring at the southern border and criminal non-citizen apprehensions hitting the roof, one has to wonder if the left even has a clue about the ramifications of their policies. A focus on transparency has morphed into transparency for the criminals while law enforcement is left holding the bag. As if letting criminals roam free wasn’t already comic enough, the question now is whether they will continue to trust the FBI or if the deep state agents will be left to their own devices, leaking their way into infamy.
