Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem fell victim to a thief while eating dinner at a downtown Washington, DC, restaurant Sunday night, two sources familiar with the incident, including a law enforcement source, told CNN.
The Secret Service, which provides security for Noem, reviewed security camera footage at the restaurant and saw an unknown white male wearing a medical mask steal her bag and leave the restaurant.
The thief got away with Noem’s driver’s license, medication, apartment keys, passport, DHS access badge, makeup bag, blank checks, and about $3,000 in cash, the law enforcement source said.

Boy, she had a good night, that’s probably six guys.
I’ve got $5 that says she just misplaced it.
She has a Secret Service detail, and still managed to get robbed? I hope she feels real safe going out in public knowing that they can’t even protect her purse.
Cojones on that thief though…
Damn. They just eating these opsec L’s
She should’ve put that money into Crypto. All the smart people are doing it. /s
Kripi Gnoem is insecure in her deeply-beloved homeland!!!
$3k in cash? Her coke habit is expensive
Seriously, who tf carries that much cash and is a govt employee without being up to something very sheisty
She hasn’t had a chance to deposit that bribe yet. After all, she had just received it there in the restaurant.
Not very secure, is she?
She runs the Department of Homeland Security, not Restaurantland Security.
Also, according to our own laws, she was doing something unlawful because why would she need $3,000 in cash?! They’d civil forfeiture that shit if a normal person got caught with that much cash on them.
Yeah, when I served on a jury, the prosecutor was very clear that the only reason someone carried more than $100 in cash was for drugs or other illicit dealings.
Hope you voted to acquit.
Edit: ducking autocorrect.
Sounds like it was taken via citizen’s civil forfeiture 😊
I thought using cash like that was a sign of criminality?Or does that only apply to minorities? You better believe any cop out there would confiscate that shit from any of us faster than you can say civil asset forfeiture. It was certainly a point of contention for Fanni Willis during the Trump trial.
I carry cash often because I play poker on the weekends as a hobby. It’s funny how stigmatized paying cash for anything over $100 has become. People are always surprised to see it, and you definitely catch some judgemental looks.
Really? I don’t do it a ton because I don’t really like carrying cash, but I can’t think of a time when someone’s looked at me weird, my dealer practically insists on it and the local tradesmen all seem to like it so much they give me a discount.
I carry cash in small amounts because some restaurants prefer cash to avoid the credit card fee
Looks like drop off of state secrets to russian agent made to look like a theft. What better way than in plain sight and blame it on a thief.
ffs dead drops aren’t done in ways that end up in the news. this recent fascination with conspiracy theories is starting to make liberals look as insane as MAGA nitwits.
We don’t take these seriously. Lol
You can still safely assume that the average Lemming is a well educated lefty, frustrated at what’s going on, and willing to chuck a funny pebble at the administration to relieve some steam.
Or what, do you think people actually believe JD Vance fucks couches? But he totally could, right? ;)
Idk if you’ve noticed but this administration is dumb as fuck and already thinks they’re above the law. Why wouldn’t they
Because the Russians are not dumb as fuck, and they would be the ones setting it up.
People have accidentally picked up drop bags before, it wouldn’t be the first time that the wrong person got one.
It would be the first time anyone was dumb enough to report one missing.
I don’t think that’s even what happened necessarily, I’m just saying it’s not impossible. This could all just be a distraction but from something else. In the scenario where it’s a drop, I imagine it would probably be a successful drop from the Russian agent to Noem, followed by Noem being dumb enough to confirm the money was there, then stay to eat after the drop and be surprised when somebody walks off with her bag full of cash.
It could also just be somebody from the press paying Noem and her being the leak the whole time, after she’s been threatening federal employees with polygraphs.
In this scenario, I imagine Noem taking a bribe, giving information, a journalist saying fuck this lady she’s scum, I’m walking off with this money, and Noem getting pissed and thinking she’s above the law anyway, why not report it stolen
I mean, yeah, you do have a point.
It’s not a conspiracy theory. It’s hyperbole to ridicule the incompetent fucks.
Starting to, yes. But they at least still adhere to their political ideologies, instead of replacing them fully with the devout religious worship of a geriatric conman.
Why was she carrying around $3k? Nothing illegal about that but that is a little curious.
She claims she took out that money to celebrate Easter with family… for dinner, activities, and gifts.
I use a credit card for such things, but yeah.
I guess in her defense, if you’re involved in the destruction of the U.S. economy, you never know when the economy might collapse and credit cards will no longer be accepted.
Still, you would think she would just carry around bars of solid gold or something.
That was Menendez. Don’t confuse your corrupt offials.
She should be paying in Euro then. Never know when the USD is going to collapse.
Seems like Secretary Gnoem would have put her full faith behind Bitcoin
to be fair cash is accepted at more food trucks and makes a better gift than credit cards.
Bribe money
That’s where your mind goes?
It’s for coke
They aren’t mutually exclusive. Maybe it’s a bribe she received that she planned to spend on coke?
That sounds more likely.
It’s illegal if the cop who finds it on you says it’s illegal.
Maybe just because Trump’s inner circle is making enough money right now that that’s just walking around money to her.
Even so, rich people usually don’t carry wads of cash like that unless they are paying somebody under the table.
Doesn’t prove it was for something illegal, but let’s not pretend it doesn’t look weird AF
Yeah, definitely. Could be something illegal. Could just be something she doesn’t want showing up on shared credit card receipts.
You think she’s paying a honey boy?
There’s a lot of things it could be, some of which are eyebrow raising. But as you said, usually when someone is carrying that much cash, there’s a reason.
Incoming federal ban on n95s
Good. She fascist trash & there literally aren’t enough bad things in the world that can happen to her.
A puppy killer too let’s never forget. About as comic book villain as one can get.
Lmfao what a fucking loser
Good. Just a shame she didn’t choke to death, slowly.
