“Display of Mugshots of Illegal Immigrants with Criminal Records by Noem Leaves People Astonished”

Kristi Noem, the Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), proudly showcased the Trump administration’s efforts to deport illegal immigrants with criminal backgrounds in a video shared online. The individuals highlighted in Secretary Noem’s video had been found guilty of offenses such as arson, child molestation, and engaging in inappropriate online interactions with minors.

Expressing astonishment at the scope of individuals being deported, Secretary Noem remarked in the video, “The range of people we are able to remove from the country with President Trump leading the way is truly astounding.” She proceeded to reveal the mugshots of three illegal immigrants with criminal convictions, detailing their specific crimes.

“Individuals involved in child molestation, arson, and online child exploitation are just some examples of the criminals who were residing in the country unlawfully and have been apprehended in recent days,” Secretary Noem emphasized in her post.

Secretary Noem noted that those featured in her video were just some of the criminal illegal immigrants the administration has been able to deport.

Secretary Noem emphasized that DHS is enforcing federal law “that has always been in place” and is not enacting anything new. 

“This is not a new law. I am just announcing that I am going to enforce our law, and we’re going to use this tool to make sure that we’re following our law to provide people an opportunity to go home and come back and be a part of our country’s future in the right way.”

On Monday, a DHS spokesperson told Fox News Digital that Secretary Noem would be ending the use of the CBP One app, which allows migrants to board domestic flights. However, they will be allowed to fly if they are doing it to self-deport. Under the Biden administration, the controversial app allowed migrants to fly without sufficient ID.

DHS and ICE did not immediately respond to a Fox News request for additional information.
