President Trump announced on Thursday he will sign an emergency order to pay TSA agents and hopefully relieve congestion at the nation’s largest airports.
*** “Because the Democrats have recklessly created a true National Crisis, I am using my authorities under the Law to protect our Great Country, as I always will do!” Trump said. “I am going to sign an Order instructing the Secretary of Homeland Security, Markwayne Mullin, to immediately pay our TSA Agents in order to address this Emergency Situation, and to quickly stop the Democrat Chaos at the Airports. It is not an easy thing to do, but I am going to do it!,” he wrote.
His announcement came as Republicans and Democrats struggle to fund the department and as Transportation Security Administration employees faced a second month without a paycheck.
Under the National Emergency Act, the president could order unspent government funds to be used to temporarily pay TSA employees — a move that would bypass Congress.
Republicans have the majority in the Senate but lack the 60 votes needed to advance DHS funding in the legislative process. Democrats have blocked funding for the department for the past month while trying to tighten rules on immigration enforcement tactics.***

Will the Dhims file lawsuit preventing Trump to do so? I’d say they would be foolish to do so...
A little off topic, but whatever happened to that POS Mayorkas? I haven’t heard hide nor hair from him since we won. Why haven’t we dragged his slimy ass in front of Congress or the DOJ? It’s like he’s disappeared, just like when he was working.
Screw the jackasses in Congress. Their constituents are getting more tax dollars than you can shake a stick at. IHOP was loaded with illegal alien thieves and their extended families today. Porking out on those pancakes. They’re getting fatter than they were when they came over Darien Gap.
We still need to take care of Coast Guard, Decret Service, FEMA, Etc.
We still need to take care the Coast Guard, Secret Service and FEMA etc.
Will it work though, I mean will TSA agents now get their pay?
I want to see that POS in a prison cell for the rest of his miserable life for what he did
Use the tariff money.
No problem, but no tariff money for all., ✖️
Yes ! I was hoping for this !!
End TSA, cut government, not fund it.
WHAT "unspent funds"? They are spending TWO TRILLION more every year than they take in. Is there a secret stash sitting somewhere?
The only thing that I could find out about Mayorkas post-Biden presidency, is that he was at the John F Kennedy Forum where he slammed sanctuary cities.

Puttin Americans ahead of Chunky’s slave laborers illegally hanging out in our country. Schumer needs to get his House boy, King Hakeem busy sending some of their extra voters back home where they belong.
Unspent funds. It is like having a Master Card with a $30,000 limit and an unpaid balance of $29,000. Therefore, you have $1000 of unspent money.
That would be optimal. Some debt trivia:
The last president to reduce the national debt was Calvin Coolidge.
The last president to bring the national debt to zero was Andrew Jackson
I will not admit that I laughed at that comment. (That comment tickled my funny bone.)
This is not a good precedent.
Any time someone wants something, just issue an executive order or emergency edict.
That’s bringing us ever closer to kingly government. Just wait until some communist obamunist gets into office with this.
It makes my head hurt.
