TOM HOMAN: Look, I think they crossed the line. They started posting pictures and addresses and phone numbers. I got state troopers around my house 24-7 right now because of death threats. And I know what it's like to be doxxed, though. These agents don't deserve that. These agents put a gun on their hip and wear a Kevlar vest every day, trying to make their communities safer. We've been really clear: we're focusing on the worst of the worst. We're focused on criminal threats and national security threats. So I got a meeting with the Department of Justice today and what we can do about this. I think it crossed the line of impeding a federal law enforcement officer in the performance of their duties. So I'm hoping we find out who these people are, and we can criminally prosecute them.

The posters, written in Spanish, translate roughly to read "CAREFUL WITH THESE FACES." It is unclear which activist group is putting up these posters, but ICE officials said they are aware and are investigating. 

A Los Angeles FBI spokesperson also shared a statement with Fox News warning those who interfere with law enforcement operations could face potential prosecution. 

"The FBI safeguards Constitutionally-protected rights, including freedom of speech and assembly. However, any individual who impedes law enforcement operations, potentially threatening the safety of law enforcement agents and subjects of their investigations, is subject to investigation and potential prosecution by the Department of Justice," the spokesperson said.
