Ridiculous since they’ll get paid for their d@@@ work and they know it. But the less airport krap the better, just check the obvious prime terrorist candidates a little profiling is definitely in order) with the reduced staffing then.

I hope there are no False Flag attacks contrived to blame Trump.

"Do they have Sick Leave?"

More than likely. In the aftermath of 9/11, the Dems held up the Bill that created the TSA, and wouldn't vote to approve, until Bush agreed to include the right for them to unionize...which of course he did.

There is only one way to get your paychecks folks. Contact Democrat Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi and Democrat, Minority Leader of the Senate, Chuck Schumer. Forget POTUS, DJT, he did not cause your problem...Democrats did. Fund the Border Wall and all will be OK. Leave things as they are, and it will be a long time before you ever see your next paycheck...you fools!!!

Pelosi, Schumer and the Democrat Low life are your problem...not POTUS, Donald J. Trump. Trump only seeks to keep America and Americans safe from illegal aliens and criminals. Case Closed!!!

So they are using their sick days and they still don’t get paid until Nancy starts to compromise. Works for me if a furloughed worker wants to use their sick days.

That's fake news.

More #FakeNews from @CNN. Security operations at airports have not been impacted by a non-existent sick out. CNN has the cell numbers of multiple @TSA public affairs professionals, but rather than validate statistics, they grossly misrepresented them. https://t.co/PzVeoIBt5R— Tyler Q.

I agree. Trump should “do the Reagan”. Fire all of them and hire new ones. Use the National Guard in the meantime.

Especially ridiculous since they haven’t missed a paycheck yet, and won’t for another week

So the TSA has been unessential all along.

Who would have thought?

They should make this a permanent walk-out. Be less stress for fliers and save govt big bucks. It’s not like they ever caught a terrorist.
They haven’t and never will, being willfully blind to a certain profile but will manhandle nuns and small disabled children.

They are worthless, anyway. Creating TSA was one of the many GWB brain farts.

I see. Good point. This shows how we really must ask PDJT to remember to Drain the Swamp!
