'Answer for it in Congress!' Dem lawmaker demands Kristi Noem remove 'fake' video or pay [View all]

Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) made a demand to Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem Saturday evening that she either remove a video posted on DHS’s official social media account – which he labeled as “fake” – or “answer for it in Congress.”

On Friday, the official DHS account on X shared a video depicting several young Black men standing intimidatingly in what appears to be a park, and with a caption threatening Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents. However, critics quickly labeled the video as fake after having located the original video that bore a different caption, which instead threatened Iran.

“FAFO,” reads the X post from DHS sharing the video, with “FAFO” being an acronym for “F— around and find out.” “If you threaten or lay hands on our law enforcement officers we will hunt you down and you will find out, really quick. We’ll see you cowards soon.”
