Summary
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has begun administering polygraph tests to employees in an effort to identify individuals leaking information about immigration operations.
DHS Secretary Kristi Noem and border czar Tom Homan have blamed recent leaks for lower-than-expected ICE arrest numbers.
Noem stated that two leakers had been identified and would be prosecuted, though it’s unclear if polygraphs were used.
While DHS has used polygraphs before for hiring screenings, they are now being used to question employees about leaks of classified or sensitive law enforcement information.
Well, Trump fired all of the heads of the whistle blower protection departments.
They were pretty shitty to begin with before that too, the laws existed but in practice, you’d still be fucked.
That’s where I’m at with the whole thing. Yeah they really fucked up everything, but at the same time most of those agencies were fucking us anyway.
