Former Immigration and Customs Enforcement prosecutor Verónica Cardenas offered a chilling explanation to MS NOW's Antonia Hylton Monday evening why ICE keeps shooting people.

The latest such incident took place in Austin, where a suspect was wounded by federal agents, triggering widespread protest.

A Wall Street Journal investigation published Monday night portraying Corey Lewandowski as the unofficial power broker who steered billions in Department of Homeland Security spending has set off a wave of fury online.

The report alleged that Lewandowski, Donald Trump's 2016 campaign manager, operated as the department's "shadow secretary" under then-Secretary Kristi Noem, his long-rumored romantic partner, pitched himself for private hire to Qatari and Emirati officials, and helped slash a Palantir contract from $2.7 billion to $1 billion after the company refused a one-on-one meeting. Lewandowski has denied wrongdoing, and a federal watchdog investigation is weighing a criminal referral.

The Department of Homeland Security has quietly published a new webpage designed to help carry out President Donald Trump’s unprecedented plan to create federal lists of eligible voters in all 50 states.

The newly published “State Citizenship Lists Portal” popped up Tuesday and currently displays a blue box declaring that the lists are “coming soon,” according to a report by Democracy Docket.

A newly revealed Department of Homeland Security memo gave National Guard troops the green light to be used as federal immigration officers, raising fears that the legal rationale could be used in the upcoming midterm elections.

The document, issued months after President Donald Trump’s return to the White House, made the case that National Guard members can act as immigration officers when ordered to serve outside their home states, NOTUS reported Friday. It authorized them to “perform immigration functions,” like arresting undocumented immigrants.

Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin is drawing criticism from immigration hardliners as conflicting messages on deportation expose simmering divisions within President Donald Trump’s coalition, Fox News reported.

Mike Howell, a leader of the Mass Deportation Coalition and president of the Oversight Project, launched a searing rebuke of Mullin’s announcement that DHS was “not conducting worksite operations in Kansas.”

Department of Homeland Security agents infiltrated a gathering of activists in Minneapolis, and upon learning the group planned to protest using peaceful methods, suggested they could hook them up with tools for more violent methods, according to investigation documents filed earlier this month.

The documents were obtained and published to X by Daniel Boguslaw, an investigative reporter for The Intercept. The agents were targeting a meeting of the Sunrise Movement, a group that was founded to lobby for climate action but has since spread out into other left-wing issues.

Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin's remarks that ICE agents could turn up at polling places this November appalled MS NOW's Molly Jong-Fast, who called the remarks "insane."

Reacting Wednesday on Money, Power, Politics, Jong-Fast said the country had reached an absurd point, with Democrats now scrambling to guarantee that armed federal agents won't be stationed at the polls.

Six months into the role, Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin has “struggled to overcome doubts” among both MAGA influencers and the White House, The New York Times reported Sunday, particularly with his efforts to “prove his toughness.”

Mullin replaced Kristi Noem as Homeland Security secretary in March, and in the months since, has repeatedly touted his efforts to ramp up deportations of undocumented migrants.
