The Biden nuclear official who stole women’s luggage at airports

WELCOME to the sad story of Sam Brinton, who made some headlines in mid-2022 when he was appointed to lead nuclear waste policy at the US Department of Energy’s (DOE) Office of Nuclear Energy as a “nonbinary gender-fluid person who uses they/them pronouns”.

We have been led to believe by the governments of the global liberal order that such persons should not only be accepted but celebrated, and further, deliberately placed in prominent jobs to ensure workplace diversity, equity and inclusivity (DEI).

So enter Sam Brinton, apparent nuclear waste expert, who for some unknown reasons, thinks dressing up like a drag queen and calling himself “non-binary gender-fluid” is going to help his prospects in life.

Such persons, if seen on the street, would normally be dismissed as some sort of gag or joke, or a pitiable person with a personality disorder desperately seeking attention. Fox show host Greg Gutfeld was less gracious, describing Brinton as a “frickin nutjob”.

The matter of serious personality disorder should surely have been foremost in the minds of the people at the Office of Nuclear Energy who hired this clown. But no, Brinton was to be celebrated and promoted and a sure-fire DEI appointment.

But by July, only a month or so in his position as a leading US nuclear official, Brinton felt the urge to steal women’s luggage at airports. In October police charged Brinton with stealing baggage worth a total of $2325 from the luggage carousel at the Minneapolis-St. Paul Airport after flying in from Washington, D.C., on September 16.

Then in early December 2022, Las Vegas prosecutors charged Brinton with grand larceny of an item valued between $1,200 and $5,000. Police accused Brinton of stealing a suitcase with a total estimated worth of $3,670 on July 6, 2022, at Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas. The bag contained jewelry valued at $1,700, clothing worth $850 and makeup valued at $500.

Brinton was on an official taxpayer-funded trip to the Nevada National Security Site in Las Vegas at the time of the alleged Las Vegas theft. 

Then, in February 2023, following reports of those two cases, a female Tanzanian fashion designer based in Houston told Fox News Digital that articles of clothing Brinton had been photographed wearing were in her luggage that went missing in Washington, D.C., in 2018. Brinton was arrested by Maryland and Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority police officers over the allegations.

The story did not appear to make it to news reports in Australia, probably because CNN only reported it once in December 2022, with the headline “Top Energy Department official no longer employed after luggage theft accusations”. CNN is the official ABC partner for US news.  

In a recent interview CNN anchor Pamela Brown insisted she knew nothing about Sam Brinton after the congressman Tim Burchett mentioned his case.

“You talk about nuclear secrets, you had a person who was in charge of nuclear secrets, a man, who dressed up as a woman, would go into the airport and steal women’s luggage, was overseeing those nuclear secrets under the Biden administration and I never heard y’all say a peep about that,” Burchett said. 

Meanwhile Australian politicians, journalists, academics and the gay and Jew lobbies will lecture us against the “immorality” of discriminating against people like Sam Brinton who exhibit extreme personality disorders while claiming to be “nonbinary gender-fluid” persons who should be referred to with the pronouns they and them – as if that confers some sort of special privilege.

In fact these politicians have made it illegal to express hate towards such persons – even when they steal your luggage or flaunt themselves before your children? Oh dear, how dare anyone “hate”. Perhaps we should confess any hateful thoughts we have before government tribunals as “hate crimes”.

It’s Orwellian to the core, but political clowns like Albanese, Dutton and their premiers would bend over backward and insert their own heads into their anuses if some gay or ethnic lobby group or media told them it was the right thing to do.

In December 2022, the DOE announced Brinton had departed the agency but declined to comment on the reason.

Brinton was able to escape jail time in all three instances but to enter an adult diversion program in relation to the Minnesota charge. Under the adult diversion program, Brinton was required to have a mental health evaluation, write a letter of apology to the victim, return any stolen property and complete three days of community service.

He was also ordered to pay $3,671 to a victim and $500 in additional fees, including a criminal fine, in the alleged Las Vegas theft. Clark County Judge Ann Zimmerman then handed Brinton a 180-day suspended jail sentence, a sentence that doesn’t need to be served, and ordered Brinton to “stay out of trouble.”
