1. Assist with?? What??

[Bobstandard]

2. Making travelers lives even more miserable

4. A whole new group of people to piss off.

3. So, in other words

They won’t relieve fuck all when it comes to congestion.

Good plan, you fucking sack of shit, you’re another in a long line of incompetent motherfuckers in the child raping bag of fuck’s administration.

5. He just said they won't be at the airports and I said to myself, wanna bet? So..they'll be there starting tomorrow

It’s not what they say. It’s what they do

6. He said they would check ID before passengers get to the screening area

As many on bluesky have pointed out, this does nothing to relieve congestion as the passengers will still have to go through screening. In fact, all it does is add another line to the screening process.

7. what could go wrong with these goons

8. I just can't decide if i ever want to hand them my REAL ID?

What options do i or anybody have if they REFUSE to return it? WTF?

10. I have the very same question.

9. Soooo...are ICE agents still being paid? If so, that's going to make some fun dynamics at the checkpoints.

A bunch of untrained thugs directing traffic and sitting at the exit to make sure there's nobody entering...they get paid.
The guy working the x-ray machines and handing personal pat downs...they get left trying to figure out how to pay the mortgage.

Just f'ing pass the spending package that funds TSA, FEMA, et al. Hold ICE until we get the no masks, judicial warrants for entry recognized and access to detention centers for unannounced inspections.

sheesh...this shouldn't be this hard.
