A DHS official was caught on undercover video confessing he and others in the department intend to defy the marching orders of DHS Secretary Kristi Noem.
Brandon Wright, Platform Services Manager for the Department of Homeland Security, told O’Keefe Media Group in undercover video that the layered bureaucracy within the DHS, like a septic tank, can be used to filter out directives from higher-ups.
“The secretaries can set the priorities for the department, but they can’t actually tell us what to do. The truth is, we don’t let them [secretaries] get in our way,” Wright admitted. “There’s a lot of layers, like [in] government…By the time the actual marching orders get to me and below, we can filter it in a way that steadies the ship.”
Wright was also critical of newly-appointed DHS Secretary Noem and the mass deportation agenda outlined by President Donald Trump.
“Kristi Noem? I fucking hate her. Kristi Noem doesn’t know… She doesn’t know her ass,” he remarked, adding, “The Department of Homeland Security could fall on her fucking head, and she wouldn’t recognize what it is.”
“To say that I am not excited about this would be the most epic understatement,” he added.
In a response to the video released by James O’Keefe, the DHS said in an official statement that Wright would likely be terminated from the department.
“Secretary Noem has not seen the video in its entirety. This type of behavior will not be tolerated. This person has been placed on leave and is under investigation…The senior official says the termination of the official is imminent.”

Noem, the former Republican governor of South Dakota, was confirmed as DHS Secretary on Jan. 25 in a 59-34 Senate vote.
Noem has repeatedly affirmed her support for Trump’s border security agenda, including mass deportations, shutting down the CBP One app and prosecuting criminal illegal aliens.
Americans overwhelmingly want criminal illegal aliens off our streets. They want these dirt bags out of our country.

The fact that Biden didn’t remove these criminals shows that he wasn’t putting America first. pic.twitter.com/kFJ4WckP4E
