Brinton, 35, is due in district court in Hennepin County, Minnesota, on Dec. 19 on felony theft charges that carry a five-year prison term.

Brinton’s government career may be short-lived.

An Energy Department spokesman said in a statement to The Washington Times: “Sam Brinton is on leave from DOE, and Kim Petry is performing the duties of Deputy Assistant Secretary of Spent Fuel and Waste Disposition.”

Obviously should be fired, not sure what their lifestyle or fashion sense has to do with anything.
He stole a suitcase full of women's clothes, claimed they were his, and wouldn't give them back.

This is who the Biden administration is putting in charge to run the country.

A) He stole. What he stole doesn't matter.
B) As best I can tell, Deputy Assistant Secretary of Spent Fuel and Waste Disposition is not an appointed position.

Did you read the article?
I did. It just says "first gender fluid person in the federal government". Nothing about appointment.

ETA: Found this on wiki: "selected by the Biden administration". I wouldn't have thought any administration would be in the business of selecting "deputy assistant" anything. Still, we don't know what "selected by" entails.

Biden energy official Sam Brinton charged with second luggage theft, this time in Las Vegas​


Sam Brinton, the first gender-fluid person with a high-ranking post at the Department of Energy, who is facing felony charges for stealing designer luggage at a Minneapolis airport, has been accused of another luggage theft at Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas.

Officials issued a felony warrant on grand larceny charges to Brinton, the deputy assistant secretary for spent fuel and waste disposition at the department’s Office of Nuclear Energy, 8 News Now reported Thursday.

So I searched which department of energy positions are appointed - Google Search
Here's a list of all the appointed positions in the DoE: Biden-Harris Administration Appointees

Guess what? Sam ain't on it. Sam's boss Dr. Kathryn Huff is, but not Sam.
Brinton’s job at the Energy Department did not require Senate approval. It is considered a nonpolitical position, but some saw Brinton’s hiring as an attempt by the Biden administration to take its pledge to diversify the federal government to an extreme by naming an activist to a high-level position.

Briton was hired after President Biden issued the 42-page National Strategy on Gender Equity and Equality, which calls for a “whole of government approach” to close the gender gap and address other forms of discrimination that have harmed the LGBTQ community.

The point that you missed though is the challenge that was made to your thread title.
"Biden’s nonbinary head of nuclear waste admits to snatching luggage worth over $2,000 from airport"

Wouldn't it have been more appropriate to say
"Sam Brinton, the deputy assistant secretary of Spent Fuel and Waste Disposition admits to snatching luggage worth over $2,000 from airport"

Why mention the guy's gender identity in the title? What has that got to do with anything?

One appointment, and he was terminated.This is unusual for Biden, and that is why it made headlines.
Not so long ago such appointments were commonplace, and taxpayers footed the bill. Minuchin's private plane ride to take his trophy wife to see the eclipse. Ben Carson's $25K desk. Pruitt's $25K phonebooth. Pompeo's lavish parties.

I bet Biden's not going to pardon the guy, like when Trump pardoned Bannon for stealing from the Build a Wall fund.

I still don't get it. What does Brinton's gender identity have to do with the theft of luggage?
Maybe the Biden Administration should have better screened their candidates for this prestigious position, to weed out the immoral, instead of steamrolling ahead with their agenda.

I don't think USA want the immoral police nor the thought police.
BTW, my understanding of the Christian belief system is that everyone is a sinner.

I presume Biden isn't clairvoyant and hence didn't know this guy was going to commit a crime.
I applaud Biden and the Democrat party for immediately removing this person, rather than defending him. Shows lots of integrity in that party.

Why do you think they selected uhhhh him?


In the words of Biden "C'mon man"....you know exactly why this uhhhh...man...was hired. Biden wants them gender fluids from the younger generation....clearly.


And don't report that....it's not a double entendre. He identifies as a gender fluid....I worded it perfectly.
