They told us this was the plan. Its right here in Project 2025, pages 158159.
This regime did the same thing to the USPS during Trumps first termslowed down mail, removed high-volume sorting machines, blocked overtimeand now theyre doing it to the TSA.
Break the system, then privatize it so their corrupt allies can profit. Who pays the price? The American people.
Congress had the chance to fund TSA seven timesand didnt. According to sources, Senator John Thune (R-SD) and Trump went rounds on the subject. Meanwhile, ICE agents are being paid nearly twice as much as TSA agents to work at airports.
Thats not cost-cutting. Its about weakening TSA and expanding ICEs role. We should all be asking why.

away millions of dollars per golf outing @ his golf clubs where he can make money on the
back end by charging the Secret Service for rooms and golf cart rentals but TSA agents havent
been paid since February?

Too bad they don't use the same energy for governing.
