And she had $3000 in cash in her purse. A totally normal amount of money for a person to be carrying around.

Probably expecting the dollar to crash and wants to buy a soda later.

A handbag belonging to the homeland security secretary Kristi Noem containing her passport, department security badge and $3,000 in cash was stolen on Sunday night at a restaurant in Washington D.C.

She's in charge of homeland security, which includes the Secret Service. She has Secret Service members with her everywhere she goes.

Go go boys will go hungry tonight

Edit: if you're running around with 3 grand in your purse it has to be for strippers and blow - no other explanation

It's a go-bag for fleeing the country.

I'm guessing not, if they were US dollars- They're getting more and more worthless outside the country.

Ma'am, you don't seem have proof of citizenship on your person...

[–] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

Why the fuck was she carrying a passport?!

Best is to just keep in a safe somewhere, right? Not like ICE is gonna deport her- they like killing puppies too

I thought the Secret Service fell under the Department of the Treasury

DHS took them about a decade ago ... About the time they started having scandals because everything DHS touches is a scandal.

[–] dditty@lemm.ee 9 points 2 months ago (1 children)

According to Wikipedia, DHS absorbed the Secret Service when the DHS was created in 2003

This was just business as usual. Being discreet when paying for a service.

[–] NOT_RICK@lemmy.world 21 points 2 months ago

Hide your dogs, everybody. She’s about to go on a rage spree

[–] FreakinSteve@lemmy.world 16 points 2 months ago

She has a Rolex and $3000 cash on a government salary.

Wtf

I DON’T KNOW YOU!

[–] BossDj@lemm.ee 9 points 2 months ago

My bet is she was drunk and left it. It was gone by the time she figured it out.

My question is. Why is she wandering round with 3 grand on her? Has she not got a credit card/ debit card/ cheque book/ phone with NFC. Why dose she need so much on her.

[–] Coyote_sly@lemmy.world 20 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

You think 3 grand is a lot of money. They think 3 grand is about enough for a decent liquid lunch.

That's why.

I've played Fallout 2, that's not how you do it. You just reverse pickpocket in the biggest explosive you can find with a 30 second timer.

Imagine what other things are possible

[–] gargolito@lemm.ee 4 points 2 months ago

Maybe she put a puppy in it and shot it.
