All Politicians are filthy thieves.
Investigators don't think Noem was targeted because of her position -- only for her outward display of opulence. “There is no indication it was because of [who she is]. It was...frankly, it was a nice-looking purse,” Martin told NBC News.
The "nice-looking purse" was a large "Gucci B" shoulder bag that retails for $4,400. There were more riches inside, including a $600 Louis Vitton Clemence purse that held roughly $3,000 in cash. The bag also contained her DHS badge, passport, driver's license, credit cards, blank checks, medicine and apartment keys. Attempting to justify the stack of cash, DHS told the New York Times that “her entire family was in town including her children and grandchildren. She was using the cash withdrawal to treat her family to dinner, activities and Easter gifts.” Undercutting the rationale, the $3,000 was in the purse after Noem settled the tab.
