Leak exposes identities of thousands of ICE, Border Patrol agents: Reports

A whistleblower shared personal data of about 4,500 ICE and DHS employees, increasing risks amid an 8,000% rise in death threats, officials said.

  • On Jan 14, 2026, a Department of Homeland Security whistleblower allegedly provided ICE List founder Dominick Skinner with personal data on about 4,500 ICE, Border Patrol and DHS employees, marking a potentially largest breach of department staff data.
  • Following the Jan. 7 killing of Renee Nicole Good, a DHS whistleblower allegedly handed Skinner personal data on roughly 6,500 ICE and Border Patrol employees.
  • Skinner said the volunteer-run ICE List, managed by three people, uses an artificial intelligence verification process, hosts the site in the Netherlands, and makes exceptions for childcare workers and nurses.
  • Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem warned that publicizing ICE and Border Patrol agents' identities endangers officers and families amid an 8,000% rise in death threats.
  • The database now holds information on around 6,500 people after new material was added, and ICE List plans to verify and publish most names since its June last year launch while lawmakers including Rep. Marsha Blackburn push anti-doxxing measures.
