Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem announced Saturday that she’s keeping an eye on potential threats to U.S. soil now that the United States is actively engaged in military action against Iran.

Noem posted on X Friday, “I am in direct coordination with our federal intelligence and law enforcement partners as we continue to closely monitor and thwart any potential threats to the homeland.”

FBI Director Kash Patel also offered up a statement about the FBI monitoring American security. “FBI personnel are fully engaged on the situation overseas,” Patel wrote. “Last night I instructed our Counterterrorism and intelligence teams to be on high alert and mobilize all assisting security assets needed. Our JTTFs throughout the country are working 24/7, as always, to address and disrupt any potential threats to the homeland.”

He continued, “While the military handles force protection overseas, the @FBI remains at the forefront of deterring attacks here at home – and will continue to have our team work around the clock to protect Americans.”

Homeland Security Missions Falter Amid Focus on Deportations

The Department of Homeland Security has diverted thousands of federal agents from their normal duties to focus on arresting undocumented immigrants, undermining a wide range of law enforcement operations in response to mounting pressure from President Trump, a New York Times investigation has found.
...
A national security probe into the black market for Iranian oil sold to finance terrorism has been slowed down for months because of the shift to immigration work, allowing tanker ships and money to disappear.

protected.

The surveillance of the general public will increase.

Hope version 2 of 911 doesn't happen, but the US may well be reminded in some way that what happens overseas can come home.
