Why do THEY get special treatment...
If I’m driving across the border, can I demand the border patrol show me a warrant before they search MY car?

Have DOT pull do an immediate audit of all their vehicles and slow walk those safety and license checks until they comply.

“The company has maintained it didn’t agree with the checks but had no choice but to comply.”
So what’s the real story? There’s no way a bus company would just NOT allow fed agents from boarding the bus. You telling me a $15/hour bus driver is gonna say NO to feds?? Gimme a break..

Doesn’t Greyhound need a Federal license to operate?

What the hell, Greyhound - can’t interfere with the cheap lawn care and construction trades service industry. Screw the country? Yeah, whatever. Don’t mess with your bottom line profits...

ICE should install a judge in every border town who does nothing but write warrants. Then officers with those warrants shouldi board every bus for a month and see how much business Greyhound would lose.

When did public transportation come with any expectation of privacy? Never. And a Greyhound bus is not a home protected by the 4th. So KMA Greyhound. Good luck with that. Where did you find your lawyer? Some high school advocacy program?

Simple, have an agent buy a ticket, board the bus and then claim reasonable suspicion was found.

Well at least Border patrol agents decrease their risk of taking home bed bugs by not boarding a Greyhound.

There are laws on the book that create a border zone which is 100 miles from nearest border. The courts allow the Border Patrol much leeway on who to stop and who they can question.
Attempts to change the law have been made over the years but proved unsuccessful.
So yes, they can (currently) legally board buses and ask questions of the passengers.

Pull their charter license.
See how long these illegals keep them afloat once they are shutdown.
Pull it PDJT, to hell with them

Simple, just have every officer carry warrants for Jose Lopez, Pedro Garcia, and Manuel Hernandez, and search every damn bus for them.

So start waving all Greyhound buses to the side of the road.
Inform the driver(s) that they will have to sit there until you can secure a warrant.
Do this with Every Greyhound bus even if you have to stack them end to end on busy days.
Sitting around for Hours, waiting on warrants should make the passengers ... and the Company very happy.
(Not to mention the hell it will play with the schedules)
Great way to boost the competitors business!😁
