Kristi Noem has been at the center of several major developments in the past few days as Secretary of Homeland Security. One of the most notable headlines came from her attempt to buy ten airplanes that were originally part of Spirit Airlines’ fleet, aiming to boost deportation flight capacity. The plan fell through when it became apparent that these jets were not owned by the airline but leased, and, more crucially, were missing engines. The story, first reported by the Wall Street Journal and discussed by aviation analysts, describes a scramble to acquire equipment as immigration enforcement operations expand. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials reportedly told Noem that using private charter services would be more cost-effective than buying engineless jets. Department of Homeland Security spokespeople later suggested that some details in the reports were inaccurate but did not specify which parts.Another major story is the record surge in job applications to Immigration and Customs Enforcement. According to national news sources quoting Kristi Noem, more than two hundred thousand Americans have recently applied for work with ICE. Noem framed this surge as a show of patriotism as the agency seeks to boost efforts to deport individuals who have committed violent crimes or pose national security risks. The Department of Homeland Security is offering new incentives to recruit agents, including a signing bonus of up to fifty thousand dollars, student loan repayment programs, extra pay for special agents, and enhanced retirement benefits.This hiring wave comes amid a reported eight thousand percent increase in death threats and violent attacks against ICE agents. Noem emphasized that anti-law enforcement rhetoric from some politicians and groups has intensified risks for officers. She cited a recent, particularly violent assault on an ICE officer in Houston, who was attacked with a metal coffee cup during the apprehension of a convicted child predator and twice-deported felon from El Salvador. The officer suffered serious facial injuries and burns.Since January, DHS under Noem reports that at least five hundred fifteen thousand illegal immigrants have been arrested and deported, with seventy percent facing criminal charges or pending cases. Noem also pointed to one point six million people self-deporting during Donald Trump’s presidency as evidence that new enforcement policies are having a measurable effect.Kristi Noem called for Americans who want to help remove dangerous criminals to join ICE, underscoring the department’s recruitment campaign and her tough stance on immigration enforcement.
