  1. PLEASE Call in "Sick"… PLEASE Shows how much Dedication these "Workers" have… They WILL Get a paycheck, it's called "Backpay" but they want to make a point… PLEASE Don't show up so you can be replaced!!! Help Drain the swamp, get rid of 90% of them… They treat travelers like criminals and are WORTHLESS POS"s. Time to "Drain that Swamp" Starting with the TSA.E !!!

  2. TSA employees are generally very arrogant and uneducated. A TSA employee often goes on a power trip if any challenges their authority. There are lots of issues raised to the searches of done by TSA. The biased and pro government courts made illegal searches legal. I often wonder if the judge can read and understand English in the constitution. TSA is an embarrassment of the the United States.

  3. Everyone bashing Trump (first of all, I agree with you, I hate Trump), BUT, we as Americans should honestly start to question the absurdity of "government shutdowns" as a concept in the first place. Why the f**k is this even a thing? It's completely stupid. Tell me another country that is vulnerable to this ridiculous phenomenon. Tell me another country that includes what most reasonable people would consider basic government functions as "arbitrarily shut-downable" parts of the budget at the whim of corrupt, opportunist politicians who get to use everyday citizens as bargaining chips in their own political games. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/worldviews/wp/2018/01/22/why-other-countries-dont-have-government-shutdowns-2/?noredirect=on&utm_term=.9a70f43ac887

  4. Everyone is talking about TSA lines but nobody is remembering that CBP isn't getting paid either and those lines are getting worse and worse resulting in less and less time to get through longer and longer TSA lines for those connecting from international flights

  5. Only 8% huh. I’d have assumed more like 50% weren’t willing to work for free

  6. You people all sound like idiots. Checkpoints are still opened, it just takes a lot longer to get through one. Security at our airports is not compromised, the luxury of getting through them quickly is. I would rather have this than shitty security at our border. I do have compassion for the TSA families affected by this, but that is why we need the Democrats to respond with an agreement for the wall instead of pushing their own agenda to cripple our national security, and prolonging the non-payment of these TSA and other federal workers.

  7. LET'S NOT FORGET THE PRESIDENTS GRANDMA WAS FROM THE SOVIET UNION…..HE AIN'T A PURE AMERICAN WITH THE LOVE FOR THE COUNTRY…HE PROMOTES HATEEEEEEEEEE LIKE A NAZI. AND WE DEFEEEEEAT THOSE DURING WORLD WAR.

  8. For God's sake just once in your life realize not everything is gonna go your way Trump just accept it and quit risking the country and give these people the money they deserve

  9. "that do do staffing issues" 😂😂😂😂

  10. Trump sleep on his comfy room playing golf he don't care about ordinary people need to work to pay the bills and put food on the table.he is like a kid throw a tantrum because no one want to give him a lollipop

  11. After about two months of the shutdown, reports will turn from shutdown to the “new normal”.

  12. If enough TSA employees call in sick or if enough air traffic controllers call in sick it will force the closing of the airport which in turn will force the government into immediate negotiations and will have the country buzzing again in days.

    If everyone goes and gets the flu shot many people are going to have flu-like symptoms if that make you feel any more comfortable calling in sick

  13. Why do y’all think there is a government shut down? It’s because Trump can’t get the money to build the wall. Why can’t he? Because of the democrat side. 3 or 4 years ago, the dems wanted to spend 45 billion on border control, and Trump is only asking for 5 billion. Trump is not getting the money because the democrats do not want Trump to have the completion of the wall on his political “resume” per say. It’s all political

    A family doesn’t put a wall around there house because they hate the people on the outside. It’s because they love the people on the inside and want to protect them… let that sink in
