In a six-page letter to Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, U.S. Sen. Dick Durbin asks why U.S. citizens were reportedly detained during recent ICE raids. The senator seeks a thorough explanation from the Department of Homeland Security about possible oversights in federal immigration enforcement.

Tensions escalated at a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing when Senator Dick Durbin challenged FBI Director Kash Patel, prompting Patel to assert that the senator was questioning his integrity. The exchange also focused on remarks attributed to Deputy FBI Director Dan Bongino.
