Two people within the Department of Homeland Security have been accused of disclosing DHS operations amid the Trump administration's mass deportation plans, according to Secretary Kristi Noem. Their names have not been disclosed at this time.
In a Fox News video, Noem is seen giving an update on the matter.
"We have 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," she said. "We plan to prosecute these two individuals and hold them accountable for what they've done. We're going to continue to do all that we can to keep America safe."
DHS spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin said the leakers are expected to face criminal charges.
"We are preparing to refer these perpetrators to the DOJ for felony prosecutions," McLaughlin said. "These individuals face up to 10 years in federal prison. We will find and root out all leakers. They will face prison time and we will get justice for the American people."

Earlier this week, Noem said the DHS was not deterred by leaks after a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raid was leaked ahead of time. The leaks drew ire from ICE, with one official telling the outlet that they feared it could result in an ICE agent being killed.
Noem had pointed the finger at the FBI for previous leaks.
"The FBI is so corrupt," she posted on X. "We will work with any and every agency to stop leaks and prosecute these crooked deep state agents to the fullest extent of the law."
