      Supposedly she has a lot of homeland security protection. But not good enough to stop her stuff from being stolen?

      It’s a lot compared to what she’s worth but not much next to her total wealth. Still better than nothing if her Kremlin file gets leaked and she has to flee the country.

      That’s when rich people just casually have 3000 bucks in their purse. Equivalent of you having 30 bucks in yours…

        I would say that rich people don’t generally carry that much cash around, the only reason to do that is if cheating the financial/banking system is illegal, which it only is for poor people not rich people.

    If a black guy was pulled over with that much cash, the cops would civil forfeiture it because it is obviously proceeds from drug dealing.

    I trust they are now investigating her ties to the drug trade?

    So the completely unqualified, dog-killing, trump-butt-kissing, hateful, ignorant, worthless, lying, and corrupt piece of filth - who happens to be the secretary of homeland security got her bag stolen?

    I think this reaction sums it up best:

    Do normal people routinely carry around $3,000 in cash? (Granted, that could just be the original Picasso that I swear was in the trunk of my Geo Metro when it was stolen).

    That’s an awful lot of cash to have. What do you need that for? Better “arrest” that money and take it down to the station.

    (Not condoning civil asset forfeiture but def making fun of it).
