Kristi Noem Now Says She's 'Very Confident' Men Who Stole Her Purse Are Undocumented

DHS Secretary Kristi Noem

Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Kristi Noem seemingly changed tune regarding her assertion that the men suspected of stealing her purse at a Washington D.C. restaurant earlier this month are undocumented immigrants, now saying she's "very confident" about it.

Noem had told The Washington Post in a statement that Mario Bustamente Leiva is a "career criminal who has been in our country illegally for years." "Unfortunately, so many families in this country have been made victims by crime, and that's why President Trump is working every single day to make America safe and get these criminal aliens off of our streets," she added.
