So much for security: Dozens of Trump lackeys have public Venmo accounts
It’s not just national security adviser Mike Waltz who sucks at, well, maintaining national security. Dozens of Trump Cabinet officials are also clueless when it comes to protecting their personal information.
NOTUS dropped a report on Tuesday showing that more than 50 members of Congress and at least 30 Trump administration officials—including Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy, press secretary Karoline Leavitt, and trade adviser Peter Navarro—had public Venmo accounts. And many of them still haven’t flipped the privacy switch.
For some, their open transactions offered a weirdly intimate look at their personal lives. Republican Rep. Steve Womack of Arkansas, for example, had Venmo activity suggesting he likes to gamble on major golf tournaments. One payment, dated April 6, 2021, was labeled “Masters 21 Donation.”
Meanwhile, Democratic Rep. Greg Landsman of Ohio sent money to his sister with the note: “Some concert I didn’t even go to.”

I have to admit I don't get Venmo. My personal finances are not anyone else's business.
