Sources who spoke with the LA Times said the Los Angeles business was expected to be carried out in conjunction with the local Drug Enforcement Agency office and the FBI. FBI agents were reportedly ordered to take part in the planned assault to help provide “more organizations” for the surgery.
Los Angeles is a sanctuary city where local law enforcement primarily restricts the assistance or cooperation of deportation officers, making it more difficult for ice to find and arrest illegal immigrants for crimes.
NOEM’s apparent allegations against the FBI follow other media leaks in future ice attacks under the Trump administration. The administration, according to these reports, is giving targets plenty of time to avoid justice.
Ice Agent carried out Wednesday’s immigration attack in Denver’s metropolitan area, where the Venezuela-based Tren de Aragua gang established a deep presence and wreaked havoc in the community.

Border Czar Tom Homan said that the media leak was the reason for the failed operation of Denver.
“OP seconds” [operation security] It’s important,” Homan said. I said it on Thursday. “That’s why when we go on to these operations and in some way the operations are leaked, it doesn’t make us very successful.”
“When you leak surgery that means more bad guys aren’t arrested, it means more bad guys are walking down the street,” Homan continued.
Border Czar added that the Media Ride Along could end to stop the leak.
“On the first day I said I wanted to be transparent with Americans,” Homan said. “We’ve invited a lot of media, and now it’s about OP-SEC, operational security.”
“So I might have to stop getting on the media because I don’t point my fingers at them, but the less people know about these operations, the more for our agents. It’s safe,” Homan continued.

President Donald Trump has taken office on his promise to carry out the largest deportation operation in US history. Since re-entering, daily ice arrests have been dramatically etched in, deportees are given the authority to implement enforcement measures in more parts of the country, and the administration has given many federal agencies agents.
