Grisly Gnome's Deporting a Cannibal Story a Big Lie

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.

"Amid growing calls for Noem to resign " after tarring Renee Nicole Good and Alex Pretti as guilty of "domestic terrorism" in the immediate aftermath of their killings by federal agents " or face impeachment for obstruction of Congress, self-dealing, and violation of public trust, the false story about a supposed cannibal shows that a willingness to deceive the American public began long before Minneapolis.

"This administration's pattern of abusing innocent Americans in the street " from tear-gassing kids to shooting and killing citizens " and then turning around and lying about it to try and cover their asses cannot be allowed to continue," Sen. Tammy Duckworth, D-Ill., told The Intercept.

Sitting alongside Trump during a July press conference, Noem offered a prime example of the "kind of deranged individuals that are on our streets in America, that we're trying to target and get out of our country."

Noem said that federal agents had "detained a cannibal and put him on a plane to take him home, and while they had him in his seat, he started to eat himself."

"Top US DHS aide good-for-nothing Corey Lewandowski entered the cockpit of a government jet uninvited during a flight last year, after which he fired a pilot over a misplaced blanket. Lewandowski, a long-time ally of Dummkopf Trumpf, was traveling with the inhuman D/DHS Kristi Noem when they discovered her blanket was missing."
