And so it begins...

ICE agents storm into our airports to assist the TSA with security. They walk around like the cocks on the block. They hover over the agents as they try to do their jobs. They intimidate the traveling public. They slam women to the floor and handcuff them, in front of their children, all the while yelling profanities.

This is a test. If they can enter our airports and intimidate people, what's to keep them from entering our polling places. This is the beginning and how we react will determine what they do in the future. Republicans pray to their God that the American people do not wake up from this nightmare. Otherwise, there would be hell to pay.

Democrats have offered to fund TSA separately in order to keep the air traffic moving, but Republicans have voted it down several times, at the orders of their leader, Donald J Trump.

There is presently a full-scale attack on our voting system and the Republicans are putting their faith in Donald Trump to save their jobs and careers, by whatever means necessary.

This is where we are on March 24th, 2026.

Would it be worth funding TSA to remove the pretext for ICE being in the airports?

The woman in question is an illegal alien and to avoid a scene she should have gone peacefully. fighting the agents she only left dirty from rolling on the floor. the obscenities were coming from the onlookers.

where is it written that airports are safe spaces from the enforcement of immigration law?

Standard operating procedures for both sides, putting forth unacceptable "agreements", then blaming the other party for not getting things done.  How many of the last "shut downs" could have been avoided if Democrats would have conceded some points in the interest of the greater good?  How many bills over the last 30-40 years have been stopped because of pork and/or unrelated garbage added from both parties? 

Don't play holier than thou, unless referring to the sieve that is your brain, buddy.

Yeppers, there's a couple of posts in yesterday's ~daily Breaking News thread about this story. She is Guatemalan, not a US citizen as ICE-Hating Progs claim, she has had a deportation order since 2019, but was saved by Covid shutdowns and LIEden bureaucracy, and when apprehended she resisted the ICE officers who overcame her resistance.

If the US is so racist, racist, racist, why did she resist being sent back to her homeland?

Here what ICE officers at airports really are doing:

Surprise! ICE Clearing Out Long Lines at Airports

Instead, here we are, with the TSA being weaponized by the Democrats to increase the pain on ordinary citizens, the TSA workers having to work for God knows how long without pay, and the airlines groaning under the weight of delays and cancellations.

Trump's temporary solution is to deploy ICE agents to the airports to help speed the security process, and it appears to be working, and working very quickly. Lines have gone from hours to under 1 hour, sometimes mere minutes.

Amazing how that line thins out when the illegals realize that they WILL be arrested and deported if they're caught there...

Apparently, ICE officers have taken over the TSA duties of general patrolling and being posted at exits that could be used to bypass security, allowing TSA agents to focus on duties that get passengers through security.
