why are the lines becoming such a problem during a "partial government shutdown", but weren't nearly this bad during the actual "full" government shutdown?


If your company didn't pay you would you show up? Maybe once because they promise they will pay you again.

Move forward 2 months...they do it again.

People only have so much patience. Even federal employees who keep missing checks but keep being told to show up.

Anyone know if they have a separate line for Clear members? I have clear but not PreCheck.


Yesterday Clear was 2.5hrs.

Also note that lots of flights are being canceled so check your status.

Wow, just saw the LGA incident. That is going to frick it up worse today.

Good time to fly out of Baton Rouge or Lafayette if the price difference isn't too bad.

Maybe the democrats should fund TSA then??? All republicans, Trump, and some democrats have agreed to fund the TSA but enough lefties won’t. Why won’t they agree to the bill, babyshit?


Democrats have put forward three separate resolutions to separately fund TSA while the shutdown is going on, but Republicans have blocked all of them.

They know keeping TSA funding tied to ICE funding causes the frustrations we see now. So they won’t fund it so they can blame Democrats so they eventually cave. Seems like it’s working apparently.

You realize that this could all be avoided if a few tolerant leftists would be slightly patriotic and vote for the SAVE America Act. Yes, the same Act that 85% of the country wants to see passed.


Im sure that 85% is and unbiased source.

Why is it controversial for ICE agents to have warrants before going into a private residence? Why are Republicans against this?

It is the President's job to keep the government open. It shows poor leadership he can't get a deal done.

The executive has the ability to approve or reject funding.

If your wife offers to end divorce negotiations by taking 80% of your assets, I guess you could count that as a "proposal".

Did you read their proposals?

I am flying out of MSY on Good Friday morning. My flight is at 9:40am.

I am really considering just getting dropped off at MSY late next Thursday night and just sleeping at my gate then going to Cafe du Monde when they open.

Not a bad idea, ive heard of worse plans .

For me, it’d depend on whether i was over about 35 yrs old, or under 35.. im over, and at my age , voluntarily trying to sleep on airport seats/floors , and/or basically pulling an all-nighter would be tough.. but yah, maybe it’s better than the alternative .
