TSA has been on a hiring binge the last few years. Time to thin the ranks like any corporate company

So actually only a 6.9% shift, during a Shutdown.......🤔

Still waiting for your interviews & stories about the 'Angel families'! You find these 'heartstring' stories trying to promote your Democrat agenda, yet care nothing about Americans that have died, injured or attacked by illegals!Tell SpeakerPelosi to get back to negotiations!

END THE SHUTDOWN NOW

Fire them. Seems they are non essential!

senatemajldr McConnel can end all this right now. He could have ended this before it started, but he's a shill. He need to put the bill on the floor, get it voted on with a VetoProofMajority, OverRideTrump and end this GovernmentShutdown
