Kristi Noem Says Bounties Taken Out on Federal Agents

Bounties of up to $10,000 have been offered for kidnapping or killing federal immigration agents amid coordinated attacks by extremist groups targeting enforcement efforts.

  • On Sunday, U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem revealed bounties of up to $10,000 on federal immigration agents, linking threats to ICE and Border Patrol personnel.
  • Noem said gangs, cartel members and known terrorist organizations are behind violent targeting in Chicago, Illinois, and Portland, Oregon amid recent immigration enforcement activity.
  • DHS has placed protective details around targeted officers and altered some operations, while federal raids used drones and helicopters and Illinois operations logged over 900 arrests.
  • Federal and local tensions are rising as Illinois Governor JB Pritzker and Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson push back against federal raids, while Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent assists DHS in tracing funding.
  • Noem called the situation unprecedented and extremely dangerous, citing protesters wearing identical gas masks and uniform signs as evidence of paid campaigns straining federal agents' welfare and operations.
