Democrat Rep. Seth Magaziner, Ranking Member of the Subcommittee on Counterterrorism and Intelligence, confronted Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem during today’s House Homeland Security Committee hearing over reports that several veterans had been deported.

Magaziner: “Madam Secretary, how many United States military veterans have you deported?”

Noem: “Sir, we have not deported U.S. citizens or military veterans.”

Magaziner: “Madam Secretary, joining us on Zoom is Sae Joon Park — a U.S. Army combat veteran who was shot twice while serving our country in Panama in 1989. He was arrested in the 1990s for minor drug offenses… and earlier this year, you deported him to Korea, a country he hasn’t lived in since he was seven years old.”
