HOMELAND SECURITY SECRETARY Kristi Noem told a preposterous story demonizing immigrants in high-profile public remarks alongside President Donald Trump and on Fox News last summer, about a cannibal who ate other people and then, on his Immigration and Customs Enforcement deportation flight, began to eat himself. At the time, The Intercept was unable to substantiate any part of the tale.
Now, three officials from federal law enforcement agencies — including Noem’s own Department of Homeland Security — with knowledge of the allegations say the entire story was fabricated.
“It is completely false,” said one senior law enforcement official who is familiar with the allegation but not authorized to speak publicly on the subject.
Two other federal law enforcement officials echoed this, telling The Intercept that the claims were ludicrous and that there was no evidence corroborating the story.
Asked for comment, a DHS spokesperson said Noem was simply relaying the claims of an air marshal. “What ‘fabrication’ of the story of the cannibal?” the spokesperson said. “She was told that story on a deportation flight by one of the air marshals.”



We’ve come to learn that every accusation is a confession of some sort, every one, there are no exceptions.
So someone connected to them is a cannibal, that is just true, I didn’t make the rules I just follow them.
Anyone have any leads? I know Noem takes off her face and puts it in a jar of adrenochrome every night.
Given she freely admitted to shooting a puppy, I wouldn’t be surprised if it was her.
That’s one of the actions in the [REDACTED] files after all.
With some help from her government-issued boyfriend. That “face” is really stuck on.
