CNN: Noem’s Bag With DHS Access Badge, $3K Stolen at Restaurant
The Secret Service saw a white male wearing a medical mask take the bag and leave.

A law enforcement officer told CNN that someone stole DHS Secretary Kristi Noem’s bag at a D.C. restaurant.
The bag contained her ID, passport, checks, $3,000 in cash, medicine, and her DHS access badge.
The Secret Service saw a white male wearing a medical mask take the bag and leave.
The officer did not provide more information. We don’t know if she was in the chair when the guy took the bag or if it was unattended.
Plenty of ladies put their purse around the chair, making it easy to snatch on the down low.
She could have also left the table and those with her didn’t pay attention to it.
This serves as a great warning, ladies, that it is easy for someone to take your purse! I usually keep mine on my lap when I’m out and about.

Comments
The secret service saw the theft but didn’t do anything. Did they at least call it in?
On another note I’m surprised she was serviced. Weren’t all the DC places
refusing service the last time Trump was president?
It was the waiter
It was the butler.
That’s an easy argument to make. Pick extreme sexual deviants to make the comparison. Don’t compare her to other conservative women. No, that wouldn’t work for you, would it. Should Pam Bondi, Harmeet Dhillon, Tulsi Gabbard, Tammy Bruce, etc., all start dressing like they want to get laid? Do you want to criticize them?
My point is that to Democrats Kristi Noem paints a poor picture of a mature and self confident conservative woman. Just because you are thinking with your d*** doesn’t change what others perceive.
This was meant as a reply to Mr. Bowman. In response to
Hey, anyone can play this game, including you.
So pick some extreme sexual deviants in the Trump administration and let’s have some fun.
I’m the one who DOESN’T think she’s dressing provocatively.
So then, which is us is thinking with our d***?
You are one sick person. Do you kick your pets?
You are a sad, strange, little man.
I agree. Working in an agency with so many men who have to protect her, even going on raids with them, I don’t think she should dress like that.
I hope she does a good job, but it would be a better job without creating distractions for the people who must work with her and even follow her commands at the risk of their lives.
I’ll bet 1o dollars they catch the thief within a day or two.
She spends too much time on hair and makeup, is all I know.
She looks far better that most women her age. what really matters is her character.
She’s showing more than her character.
How do you know?
Compared to how much RHHardin normally spends?
There’s a difference between being good looking and attractive, and dressing like you are looking to get some action. Seriously, guys, she’s giving ammunition to the Dems and the Left by dressing half her age. So what she’s in an open marriage and she’s Republican. Her appearance isn’t what you’d call “conservative“. And I hate agreeing with my neighbor Mr. Hardin.
Yeah, that sure is a risque cardigan.
But it’s the high-heel Crocs that really get my motor running.
What kind of action were Admiral Rubbermaid and Atomic Dogboy looking for?
That hot luggage action?
You might want to do the same. Maybe you’ll get lucky.
How could she be so careless with any bag containing these valuables?! This just doesn’t add up or shows that she’s a ditz-brain.
She has guards. She probably assumed her security would be effective. She assumed wrong.
The Secret Service is probably single-mindedly looking to stop assassins. They weren’t concerned with thieves.
Oh please, the apologist
When seconds count, even having the cops RIGHT THERE isn’t worth squat.
If this thief had been an assassin, she’d be dead right now.
And if the guy was close enough to snatch the handbag, wasn’t he close enough to pull out some sort of weapon designed for the purpose and reach out and touch her? I don’t care about the handbag but I never got an answer to this question.
But if she’s dressing provocatively, I would say she’s increasing the risk to herself and those protecting her. You can even say men who would act out are horrible criminals, but the risk is there. I don’t approve of her dressing up provocatively and wish she would dress as conservatively as the men. She’s in that role to do a job.
It’s what women do, “the bag” is our life
More cleavage to stash the roll of money at least. The ID?, well who cares, the government leaks like a sieve anyway.
I wonder if a set up or at least followed her, and mask wearing? It wasn’t just a opportunity crime.
“The Secret Service saw a white male wearing a medical mask take the bag and leave.”
Still not exactly covering themselves in Glory are they?
Only the glory hole unfortunately
Nope, that’s the BATF.
Can’t imagine what the downtick was for.
Gloryhole. BATF. Actual receipts. What more do you guys want?
Why watch someone steal the bag? Why not apprehend them? For that matter why the heck is Congress allowing DC to have masks? Nope..End that crap, arrest anyone wearing a mask. They can plead out with the testimony of their Physician if they had a reasonable medical excuse. Do that and lots of crime goes away.
Please don’t interfere with my right to decide whether to wear a mask. I may be feeling sickly yet need to be in public or am worried about exposing myself to infection. You may feel totally healthy, but I don’t after having the Wuhan virus.
I agree. Anyone here immunocompromised due to chemotherapy? 🙋🏻♂️ Just because someone wears a mask in crowded places doesn’t mean they aren’t dyed in the wool Conservative, 100% behind President Trump, anti-Fauci, and un-(mRNA)vaccinated.
If we let you wear a mask, we have to let Antifa or the pro-Palestinians wear masks. I would be in favor of requiring a doctor’s note for anyone including you to wear a mask.
I don’t run to an MD for every sniffle or other illness I may have. My point is I have the right to protect myself on my own decision, I don’t need a note from a doctor.
Returning to the status quo of enforcement of anti Klan mask laws helps ID criminals. That makes it easier to catch them plus the deterrent factor.
If you have a documented medical issue such as a compromised immune system then all we need to do is have your Physician sign off on it. Hell we could have it added to DL/ID similar to corrective lenses. You get stopped and right there on your ID it will inform LEO you must wear a specific type of mask when in public. Of course, that would be an ‘all the time’ requirement like corrective lenses for driving.
I went to my annual check up yesterday. One of the first things in the Physician office is signage about infection and right up top in Bold all caps print ‘if you feel sick STAY HOME’. That’s how we reduce transmission but many refuse to do this and instead prioritize their needs/wants above society as a whole. Individuals gotta conform to society not demand society conform to the individual, at least if they want to remain part of society.
Finally a mask isn’t gonna prevent infection; it isn’t designed to stop the size of the droplets and people do not use them properly. You might but most don’t. Instead they have one in the glove box/purse, reuse it, don’t swap it out, don’t prevent cross contamination, don’t keep it snug and fitted, don’t put it on/take it off without their hands touching the inside of it, lots of other bad habits, all of which compromise any perceived effectiveness.
Aside from all that, it’s somewhat easy to discern some huge chunk of those doing it for actual medical reasons. They will carry themselves differently, for one thing. Loads of people out there wearing them, who are obviously not wearing them for any reason except to obscure their ID or virtue signal.
The placement on an ID makes it crystal clear. Much easier to enforce for LEO when it is presumptively illegal to wear mask, they check ID for medical necessity designation, and it is confirmed or not on the spot. Leaving it up to a subjective belief of LEO is not a good idea see bad DUI arrests based on field performance tests in TN.
This comment may not be in the right spot, or maybe it is. I can’t tell.
Regardless, I’m not “showing my papers” to wear a mask, and f*** you for suggesting that I should have to.
Fwiw, I haven’t donned one since the law required me to, but I still keep them handy and if I fee the need to use one to obscure my identity or protect myself or others, I’ll do so. Come and take it if you think you have what it takes.
The masks are useless for viruses, only effective for , and then only when properly fitted. Most are not, then they are worse than useless.
I’m surprised. Doesn’t the Barbie purse usually snap into the hand somehow?
A teenile woman.
I’m not at all surprised you know something about Barbie purses.
Nothing wrong with that. GI Joe Kung-Fu grip was better at it.
“Manbag not included.”
No. It doesn’t.
Barbie is notorious for having virtually useless hands.
Why I never go into DC.
The Hanafi Muslim hostage siege in 1973 did it for us (DW was temping in the next building, quit at closing time, and never went back).
If they were close enough to steal the bag, couldn’t they have killed her? It seems like the same kind of Secret Service protection that Trump got in Butler PA?
Now Trump can investigate the hell out of the Secret Service and clean it up.
I think the tale here is that she was in the loo and the bag wasn’t.
Maybe her protection detail went to the loo too.
Yeah, I thought one of the first things Trump would do when got back into office would be to reform the Secret Service. Guess not.
Gee. If one of US was carrying 3 grand and got shaken down by a cop or TSA, it would be stolen from us as it would “obviously” be money from or for drug dealing.
I seem to recall that the Secret Service reports up thru Treasury. Calling Scott Bessent. You have a problem in your department.
Nope. Thanks to W, “tax cops” like Secret Service and BATF now work for DHS.
why let lefty control the narrative
find the (possible) never trumper who was in charge of protecting her and take action…
Oh no-was her botox in the purse?
No, but your May PrEP supply is now in the wind.
Well, women do have their handbags stolen, I suppose, but my mama taught me when I was very young that you NEVER leave your purse out in the open where a bad guy can reach it. not in a shopping cart, not slung over the back of your chair.
And in my 70 years, I don’t believe I ever have. Certainly never had one stolen.
And I am deeply perplexed by anyone watching this wrong’un take a lady’s bag and not stopping him, or at least hollering “Hey! Put that down!”
Is your mama still available to train police how to go potty with their sidearms?
The Federal Government needs to pass a law to block wearing masks except if you are in Law enforcement, EMT, or Fire Department. This will allow for people that commit crimes wearing masks to be stopped while wearing masks or identified if not wearing masks.
