1 One terrorist attack could bring air travel to a complete standstill. Coordinated attacks would be absolutely devastating. It would appear democrats want this to happen in order to destroy President Trump.

If we come away with 1 thought from this.
Remember that the Democrats are welling to let another 911 happen to further their Anti-MAGA agenda. May GOD forbid their sucess.

3 I have an idea on how to handle this, but I'm sure it will get me banned.

4 Isn't forcing people to work without pay like, you know, slavery? That's supposed to be bad.

6 Perhaps the airlines could ban all Democratic politicians from flying on their aircraft?

When they insist on being flown home stick them in the back of a C-130 configured for troop transport.

Senate Passes Bill to End Special Airport Treatment for Congress

The U.S. Senate has passed the End Special Treatment for Congress at Airports Act of 2026, a bill introduced by Senator John Cornyn (R-TX), which would eliminate preferential airport security screening for members of Congress. The bill passed unanimously on March 20, 2026, requiring all Members of Congress to undergo the same TSA screening procedures as the general public and prohibiting the use of federal funds for expedited or preferential access at airport checkpoints.

This legislation comes amid a partial federal government shutdown affecting the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), which has led to staffing shortages at TSA checkpoints, longer wait times, and reduced services. Senator Cornyn criticized the existing practice of allowing lawmakers to bypass lines, calling it an unfair perk that undermines public trust. He emphasized that "nobody should be above the rules" and that Congress should experience the same travel challenges as everyday Americans.

While the Senate has passed the bill, it still requires approval by the House of Representatives and signature by the President to become law. The bill does not prohibit Members of Congress from participating in publicly available programs like TSA PreCheck or other trusted traveler programs, but it ensures they cannot receive special treatment based on their official status.

Given the Democrats openly and frequently stated pro-terrorist group supporting comments. Would it be safe for Real and Loyal Americans to share a line with them?

Make them use EV's to drive to DC. It would take the west coast far left at least 10 days with the stops to recharge.
