Cartels target federal immigration agents with $10K bounties, Kristi Noem reveals: ‘Dangerous and unprecedented’
WASHINGTON — Cartels have put bounties on the heads of several federal immigration agents, offering $10,000 to kill them and $2,000 for their capture, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem chillingly revealed Sunday.
Noem said the bounties and doxing campaigns against officers have roiled federal law enforcement, but didn’t specify whether it was specific to a particular agency like US Border Patrol or Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

“We have specific agents who have had bounties put out on their heads,” Noem told “Fox & Friends Weekend” on Sunday.
“It’s been $2,000 to kidnap them, $10,000 to kill them. They’ve released their pictures; they’ve sent them between their networks. It’s an extremely dangerous and unprecedented situation.”
Due to ongoing investigations, the Homeland Security secretary was coy about which specific groups were issuing the bounties.
“It is gangs, it is cartel members and known terrorist organizations,” she explained broadly.
“They are making sure that they know which officers are out there and being extremely effective, and they want to take them down, because they want to try to stop the operations that are going that are that are keeping them from making money off their criminal networks.”
