How are they “furious”?
Hero badge for Elon Musk.
Trump should order TSA to close the bypass line.
That way congressmen will have to wait in line too.
Like w/exempting themselves from commie care, they’ve exempted themselves from the cattle line too.
More and more it’s looking like “congressman” and “senator” are actually titles of nobility.
HOORAY Elon!
And did Elon Musk "crush" them?
I hope he really does it, and quickly.
Aren’t TSA agents union? Just asking….
“Billionaire are bad” — especially when they pay people’s salaries, and stuff.
If elon musk removes the dhimmicrats ability to hold our security hostage he desrves the Freedom medal and sincere thanks from everyone.
Schumer and his cabal are just evil.
TSA agents should be strip searching and probing every democrat they come across
There are no ‘Rats quoted in the article are there?
It is nice for them to take public ownership of their fiasco.
Democrats are permanently furious. We ain’t seen nothin’ yet.
This is from X.
Is it even true?
This is incredibly generous.
TSA agents across the country are relying on food pantries and community donations just to get by.
I remain the lone Dem to vote with my Republican colleagues to fully fund DHS and get people paid.
It should never come to this point.
Where is the Lamestream media calling the Dems out on this — every newscast ?
Elon Musk:
I would like to offer to pay the salaries of TSA personnel during this funding impasse that is negatively affecting the lives of so many Americans at airports throughout the country
