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.”
She said this as some sort of “gotcha”.
So before we miss the point here …
It is not okay to deport people without due process, even if that person is a cannibal!

What’s the over/under on whether this marshal was just fucking with her?
“Hey Ted, what do you think is the craziest story we can get her to believe?”
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.
That’s one of the actions in the [REDACTED] files after all.
Given she freely admitted to shooting a puppy, I wouldn’t be surprised if it was her.
takes off her face and puts it in a jar of adrenochrome every night
With some help from her government-issued boyfriend. That “face” is really stuck on.
Assume everything coming out of a fascist regime is made up.
Asked for comment, a DHS spokesperson said Noem, much like her boss, is an idiot and was simply relaying the claims of an air marshal. She does not have the cognitive ability to verify information or take things with a grain of salt. “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 and she lapped it up like a cat given a bowl of cream.”

That explains why the administration wants Greenland. Noem was told on good authority by her grandpa that Santa lives at the North Pole, and now she wants all the presents! It’s a fact, she was told a story!
Was she the dog killer? I’m losing track of all the MAGA carpet munchers and the insane shit they do. Probably blaming cannibalism to distract from eating the dog that was killed.
Yes
I mean, she’s not really put any work into fighting her dog killing story. It’s from her book, and considering it predates her role at ice I don’t think it’s even a topic she’s worried about.
My take from this is she has or wants to eat human flesh.
Seriously, I’m not joking, someone connected to them in a high up position is engaging in some kind of cannibalism. Every single accusation is a confession. Maybe peter thiel is now eating some product derived from young virgin boys to make him more youthful? He previously had young boy blood injected into him regularly, so it’s a natural progression to him drinking adrenochrome type shit. They accused others of it, so they have something resembling adrenochrome. Every one.
BBQ that Krispy Gnome!
This makes more sense if she’s trying to gauge the public response to a cannibalism story before some damning Trumpstein evidence on the topic is released.
Trumpstein. The time has come. Spread the word.
NOT True! That 2 MONTH OLD BABY they Deported was EATING it’s Mother’s Booby!
They deported Hannibal Lecter. Even though the president said he was a wonderful man and apparently he died.
People forget that but it’s true. The man is so seriously ill in so many ways.
Some of these people should be in prison or mental hospitals, yet somehow they are leaders of our country.
Yup.
Narcissism, characterized by an inflated sense of self-importance and a lack of empathy (American Psychiatric Association [APA], 2013), has been a hallmark of numerous political leaders throughout history.
The aphorism “power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely” (Acton, 1887) encapsulates the relationship between politics and egocentrism. Politicians often seek positions of influence to control resources and shape societal structures, which inherently fosters egocentric behavior.
Politicians often operate with a malleable moral compass, disregarding established norms to achieve their objectives.
Radicalism, defined by uncompromising advocacy for change, is another trait commonly observed in politicians.
Trust issues are another hallmark of political psychology. The adversarial nature of politics necessitates a cautious approach to relationships, fostering an environment of suspicion and guardedness.
Contrary to popular perception, patriotism is not always the driving force behind political decisions. Politicians frequently prioritize economic or geopolitical interests over national welfare.

That implies that they were not egocentric before getting into their positions. I think it’s rather that this type of position attracts this type of people and that our society is built in a way that rewards antisocial behaviour, as opposed to the position corrupting the person.
Ok assuming we find a cannibal, shouldn’t we be locking them up instead of deporting them? They could even try them in a state with the death penalty. I am not sure how she thought this was a win.
The feds try people in federal court and they do have a death penalty. It was long unused when the bush administration went out of it’s way to use it, this administration obviously has furthered that attempted use of it. The idea of executing their falsely convicted before anyone can exonerate them they find attractive.
Clearly though, one of them is a cannibal, so they are accusing others of it first. There is no way between this claim, and the president talking about hannibal lector being great, that a high up with them isn’t cannibaling. Probably thiel eating products from young virgin boys. Maybe their glands or sexual organs. Probably bought from Israel now that I think of it.
A few years ago this would be a tin-foil-hat-tirade from you. Now it just feels like a typical Monday morning revelation.
more likely, Noem was reading the Trump-Epstein files and is confusing it with the ICE report.
If they had caught a cannibal why would they send them back to their country to be free instead of locking them up so they can’t eat anymore people?!?!
