AN UNPRECEDENTED LEAK of Department of Homeland Security records has exposed details of more than 41,000 employees or contractors who work for the department and its constituent agencies. The records include email addresses, phone numbers, and office addresses, but also references to internal systems and sensitive information on undercover and surveillance programs. In all, the leak provides a map of how DHS is organized and how it operates.
The records, which span DHS itself as well as seven component agencies, including Immigration and Customs Enforcement and US Customs and Border Protection, were last updated on August 19, 2026. The transparency nonprofit Distributed Denial of Secrets and cybersecurity researcher and journalist maia arson crimew previewed the data to WIRED, which they say they obtained from a group calling itself the Department of Peace.
Depressing. Too many people read this as a win, are are counting their chicken before even an antigestapo is formed.
You got 41,001+ combat ready volunteers?
Those 41000 people are not made of “combat ready personell”, at least not the majority of it. There are a lot of pencil pushers in this dataset. If anything, it shows how few of them there are in practical terms.
how many of these “pencil pushers” have access to guns?
Nice. These fucks should be held accountable.
It’s about gd time
