Kristi Noem is celebrating her new job with a weird cosplay video.

Newly appointed DHS Secretary Kristi Noem is in New York City cosplaying as an ICE agent.

“Here in New York City this morning, we are gettin’ the dirtbags off these streets,” said Noem, wearing an official ICE bulletproof vest over her jacket in a video captioned “7 AM in NYC. Getting the dirt bags off the streets.” (An earlier version of the post with a misspelling of dirt bags was deleted.)

The post came as the Department of Homeland Security began conducting ICE raids in New York City Tuesday morning as part of President Trump’s sweeping immigration crackdown.



“Just now. Enforcement operation in NYC. Criminal alien with kidnapping, assault & burglary charges is now in custody—thanks to ICE,” Noem wrote in a different post that same morning. “Dirtbags like this will continue to be removed from our streets.” The video attached to the post showed ICE agents leading a man away in cuffs at around 6 a.m.

3. Wow... I had no idea a makeup artist was assigned to ICE to make them all (at least some) so camera-ready...
