Non-Binary Biden Official Was Traveling on Taxpayer Dime to Secure Nuclear Facility When Luggage Heist Occurred
Former Biden administration nuclear official Sam Brinton was on a taxpayer-funded government business trip when he was caught trying to steal airport luggage, according to newly revealed Department of Energy documents.
Brinton, who identifies as “non-binary” and dresses in woman’s clothes, traveled in early July 2022 to the DOE’s Nevada national security site outside Las Vegas as part of his role as deputy assistant secretary for spent fuel and waste disposition at the office of nuclear energy, according to internal documents obtained by watchdog group Functional Government Initiative (FGI) and first reported by Fox News.
Brinton took a United Airlines flight from Washington, D.C., to Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas on July 6, 2022, the records indicate. In early December, authorities announced there was a federal warrant out for Brinton’s arrest on grand larceny charges for stealing property worth between $1,200 and $5,000. Police said Brinton was captured on surveillance footage leaving the airport with a suitcase containing an estimated $3,500 value of jewelry, clothing, and makeup on July 6, 2022.
The visit to the Nevada national security Site — which conducts “experiments” related to nuclear national security, according to the DOE website — was made for an undefined purpose, according to the documents. The NNSS is located in a remote, highly secure area. The facility hosts scientists, engineers, mathematicians, and technicians who “execute a multitude of high-level experimental, research, and training activities in support of national security.”

Biden Official Committed Grand Larceny While On Sensitive Government Trip; Report
According to a Fox News report, former senior Department of Energy (DOE) official Sam Brinton committed one of his thefts of baggage while on an official government trip to the Nevada National Security Site. Sen. John Barrasso, R-Wyo., the ranking member of the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee, is asking the Biden Administration why the security and vetting process missed Brinton’s apparent theft compulsion before any appointment.
The concern is that Brinton’s luggage may have been checked, but Brinton was not as a high-ranking Energy Department official.
Brinton’s appointment as a nonbinary individual was heralded by President Joe Biden and DOE Secretary Jennifer Granholm as a trailblazing move by the Administration. The Administration then went largely into radio silence after Brinton’s arrest for multiple thefts last year of women’s bags. Brinton appeared in public wearing some of the stolen dresses.
One such theft occurred in early July 2022 on a trip to the DOE-operated Nevada National Security Site, according to watchdog group Functional Government Initiative (FGI). Brinton arrived at Harry Reid International Airport on a United Airlines flight from Washington, D.C. on July 6, 2022. Brinton proceeded to steal a suitcase with an total estimated worth of $3,670, including jewelry valued at $1,700, clothing worth $850 and makeup valued at $500.
Brinton was later charged with another theft at another airport. A plea avoided jail time in the grand larceny case, resulting in a 180-day suspended jail sentence and an order by Clark County Judge Ann Zimmerman to simply “stay out of trouble.”
Brinton also avoided jail time in the separate theft of $2,325 from the luggage carousel at the Minneapolis-St. Paul Airport on Sept. 16.
Barrasso is asking a still unanswered question of how Brinton made it through the security clearance and vetting process. This is a highly sensitive position as reflected in a trip to the Nevada National Security Site which is described as “a preferred location for experiments supporting the National Nuclear Security Administration’s nuclear weapons Stockpile Stewardship Programs, national defense programs, and national security research, development and training programs, as well as vital programs of other federal agencies.”
What is curious about the Brinton case is that it is unlikely that these were the only two such crimes. This has the markings of an individual who is so mentally unstable or delusional that the compulsion could not even be resisted on an official national security related trip.
