U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem had her handbag stolen while dining at a Washington restaurant. The bag, lying next to her, contained her driver’s license, medication, house keys, makeup kit, checkbook—and $3,000 in cash.

Let's hope that's all she actually lost. How does the Secretary of Homeland Security not have personal security close enough to stop someone from grabbing her bag off the floor? Absolutely unreal.

Notable how she was carrying around cash rather than putting everything on cars. Financial privacy FTW.

Spending that amount of cash all at once is outright illegal in a lot of EU shitholes, like Spain.

Actions weigh heavier than words.

EU is a fascist state at this point.

Note that her salary is $250,600, and her husband's is $1.1 million. The off chance of having $3000 stolen isn't a big deal for her.

But it is a story that carries a day in the news cycle

The fact that _she_ got her handbag stolen is obviously newsworthy regardless of what was actually stolen. The cash thing is just interesting from a financial privacy perspective.
