Yeah, it’s like cops notifying another jurisdiction that someone was picked up on a warrant.

I’m sure that has never happened to a “traveling mom” before.

And this is the way the system is supposed to work. Nobody gets run over by a lunatic broad driving a deadly weapon or gets himself shot by being an idiot with a big mouth wearing jackboots.

Buried near the end of the article-

*** SFO is not among the airports expected to receive ICE agents to support checkpoint operations during the shutdown. San Francisco International is one of a small number of U.S. airports that rely on private security contractors under federal oversight, rather than federally employed TSA screeners.***

So the headline is totally wrong. There is no TSA at SFO.

Additionally, I went through security at SFO Terminal 3 on Sunday, though perhaps not at the same time as this woman. There were no long lines. I’m not TSA Precheck and I got through security in 10 minutes..

Baggage agents have access to intelligence of the traveling public, days in advance of a scheduled trip?

Since when did the TSA get these magical abilities?

That’s funny because a local cop is normally there to do the arresting. Since local cops don’t work with the feds on immigration Trump sends ICE there and they end up doing the work mayors won’t.

It sends a warning to the illegals to not travel. Democrats see it as a stomping on their rights. Sue us.

What happens when mayors and city/state attorneys instruct cops to arrest ICE? I can guarantee it won’t happen when they’re in uniform.

"after she missed an immigration court hearing."

The media makes it sound like it's no big deal to miss a 2019 immigration hearing, and still be here illegally 7 years later.

This is proof that our immigration crap is and has always been a mess. The border patrol under Pedo Joe Bido would “catch and release” illegal aliens, change their diapers, buy them a teddy bear and Happy Meal and new white Nikes for the parents and send them on on their way into America with a sticky note containing an immigration court date three years down the road. Very few ever show up on their court date. It makes no difference. They’ve been pumping out anchor babies for three years. What a joke.

SFO doesn’t have TSA agents. It is private security there.

I didn’t know this until I traveled from there the other day. No long lines, even as busy as that place is.

These Latin grease balls aren't used to Anglo-Saxon justice. Don't show up for court? Game over.

Right, she missed a court hearing *7* years ago, and hasn’t bothered to try to get it rescheduled since then.
