You can thank Chuckles. He voted for this.

Trump could end this by shutting down all flights except military. That includes all private aviation.

Long term, privatize TSA. Let the airlines pay for it through airport fees, and pass the cost of government along to the end users; the passengers.

Short term, close the VIP lines (pre-check, etc.) and make the legislators and media types stand in line like normal people.

No more Animal Farm treatment at the airport.

For all this you have “Karens”

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karen_(slang)

that reflexively vote for Democrats to blame.

“Embrace the suck”. Until we go back to “normal”
families with a mom and dad that raise the kids,
You’ll have to deal with all the abnormalities
a mom only family causes for their kids.
“Race/Ethnicity: Among single parents, roughly 42% are white, 28% are black, and a significant portion are Hispanic.”

“Black and Hispanic people account for nearly 60% of the prison population. Black Americans are incarcerated at over 5 times the rate of white Americans.”
Ever wonder why?
It isn’t racial, it is cultural.
In our laws where does it say if a black kid commits a robbery he gets more time than a Chinese kid, or a white kid, or an Indian kid?
No where!
Are there informal racial problems, absolutely!
But as a white kid if I mouthed off to a cop, I got my ass kicked by them or my Dad; in my case both.
A Black kid does it and nothing happens, openly,
but the mark is made.
Karens politically allowed this to happen.

Millions of illegal criminals get into America and work the airports and airlines while American are strip searched at airports.

Hobby Airport in Houston saw 53% of its TSA officers call out March 8 and 47% the next day

If the TSA is operating at half personpower, the obvious solution is just let the white passengers walk through a metal detector, and call it a day. An added bonus is all Demonrats would then pop a fuse.

Do away with TSA, armed marshals on flights. Zip tie and taser any wiseacre. Or shoot. AI for the luggage inspection.

Problem solved.

We seem to have some Democrats that need a trip behind the barn for a good working over. They are rapidly becoming more trouble than they are worth.

Once you get the TSA pass, any airline has Touchless pass: you scan your Passport and click enter. Wait times reduced to as little as 2 minutes.

TSA had a job fair with a billboard showing, “We’re hiring.” Unfortunately, they aren’t paying, so they couldn’t find a fool to sign-up. S/ LOL

I’d quit too if I had another job lined up. The pay isn’t all that great for the rank and file agents. Those are the people that really can’t afford to miss a paycheck.

When I travel, there always seems to be many TSA agents standing around talking. I once had money stolen from my bin, it was there on the way into the scanner, gone when I went to retrieve it. I asked the 4-5 TSA agents that were RIGHT THERE, “where’s my money?”. They just had a blank look, I asked again. Their reply, “It’s not our job to look out for that”.

Robbed in a “security line” - and it isn’t their job to stop it. Sorry if I have a lack of faith in them. The only reason 9/11 was successful was because we were naive...wouldn’t happen now. Paying for “pre-check” is just paying for normalcy.

The whole thing is a waste.

But Chuckie and Hakeem will be on all the DNC propaganda platforms calling it the “Donald Trump Shutdown” and the idiot audience will believe every word. The democrats are expert shameless liars. The GOP needs to start fighting like democrats. Lie, cheat, steal, just like them. They are destroying the nation, and dare I say, the world.

I won’t rage because I won’t fly. I refuse to pay that much money to be treated that badly.
