The phrasing "DHS's efforts to keep our Nation secure" made me smirk. "Nation" capitalized, as if it's a deity. The phrase itself written to make DHS sound like the heroes...

Why not just replace it with "Fatherland", or better, "Vaterland"?

Fun fact: The GPO actually recommends capitalizing "Nation" when used to describe the United States in any and all government writing.

The trip from healthy patriotism to toxic nationalism (aka fascism) is sometimes a short one, friend. It's good to observe the signpots - and to heed how many we've seen already with this administration.
