Senate vote failed again yesterday. TSA agents will miss yet another paycheck I believe tomorrow. So expect this weekend to be very bad

Airports and airlines need to take matters into their own hands and end the charade. Abolish the TSA and do your own thing.

This wouldn't be an issue if we just allowed open borders.

No TSA, no ICE, no CBP, no DHS.

What could possibly go wrong?

He offered to pay the TSA's salary.

Yes… which would’ve ended the “TSA Apocalypse”, correct?

They could do a 1 page bill and fund it and end this

But congress is a bunch of theatre kids who are a bunch of dickwads

They’d rather hold Americans hostage over the coals to be miserable than to vote for required voter ID to stop election shenanigans

Just unreal honestly . They fight for illegals more than American citizens

Until he stopped paying it and the issue started all over again, at the same time taking pressure off Schumer to come to the table.

How would this get around the fact that Dems won't support DHS funding that includes funding for every department of DHS?

Stop buying tickets and this will be fixed by midnight.

Once the big donors who run the airlines raise hell CHUCK will shite himself and roll over like the dog he is.

It's not quite that easy.

He can't pay them directly. He would have to make a special gift/donation to the Treasury Department. Congress would then have to pass a special allocation to use that gift to pay the TSA workers.

There's no guarantee that would get passed. Plus it would just kick the can down the road, as well as you still have no allocation for FEMA, civilians who work for the Coast Guard,, etc

Why wouldn't they? The more illegal immigrants, the more they stop the hemorrhaging of population in their states, maintaining their congressional seats for the next census.

That's what this entire thing is about. It's why Democrats have such a hard on for open borders, sanctuary states/cities, etc.

Power. Nothing more.

No TSA wouldn’t change a thing. In penetration testing, TSA fails to stop 80% of incidents. It’s worthless

There was 54 votes in favor of funding. 6 more are needed.

Dems want this to go into Easter, obviously. I assume their polling numbers indicate that a large portion of the public is blaming Trump/GOP so they are going to keep this up

Thank you, finally some common sense.





Let me just add a quick little bit about funding English as a second language classes to doggy daycare.
