TRUMPS dEI Ideology over qualifications Julia Varvaro, a Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Deputy Assistant Secretary for Counterterrorism, was revealed to be on a sugar daddy website. Varvaro allegedly had an account on Seeking.com, a page often used by young, attractive singles seeking wealthier partners to help fund a luxury lifestyle. According to the Daily Mail, the profile was under the name “Alessia,” who worked for a government agency and offered “seductive sophistication.” Varvaro has since been put on administrative leave by the DHS.Varvaro’s profile listed her as “flirty, fun, and fond of sultry spaces,” and “drawn to a masculine man who’s attentive, protective, and quietly playful for mutually beneficial experiences.” She was first accused by an ex-lover, Robert B., who met her on Hinge and told the Daily Mail he spent $40,000 on Varvaro in three months, over first-class flights to Aruba and Italy, Cartier jewelry, and designer handbags. Robert B. said their relationship ended after he refused to spend more money on her, following which, he filed a complaint with DHS’s Inspector General, saying Varvaro was “ under financial stress and that her actions pose a security risk.” Varvaro has denied everything. “We were together in an exclusive relationship. We went on vacations. I don’t know what’s the problem with that,” she told the Daily Mail. “I did nothing wrong. This is just a mad ex-boyfriend putting cr*p together. And it’s just really weird.” The DHS has since said that Varvaro is on leave and no longer serving in her role.
