Getting thru TSA with dangerous water bottle or dreaded bottle of hot sauce or some such.
Walking with departing family or friends to fate to say good bye.

Catching or missing my connection from international flight to domestic because going thru TSA once wasn't enough.

TSA is one of the miniscule government functions that actually give me a return (security).

Why are we *****ing about TSA when the government spent more money on useless Boeing contracts in 2025?

When has TSA provided security?

They have a 95% failure rate, when tested.

Think about this: they put "dangerous liquids" all together in one place when removed from your personal belongings. That's dangerous as **** , on its face. Imagine if a few terrorists got the idea to use that to their terror advantage. Oops!

Remember when hunters flying would put their valuable rifle up in overhead and nobody got shot or hijacked?

How about the freedom of not getting treated like cattle by 85 IQ TSA agents while at the same time being forced to provide biometric data to the gooberment. I'm sure all of this has kept us safe.

If we'd have remained a mostly white country with Christian values we wouldn't have 99% of modern issues

I guarantee that if they had actually stopped a threat that they would be crowing about it. That has not happened.

"Perhaps things would have gone more smoothly if I'd handed over my biometric data to a random private company (CLEAR). Then I could enjoy the special privilege of waiting in a shorter line to be treated like a terrorist in my own country. Is this freedom? Travel, brought to you by George Orwell and the privilege of convenience based solely on your willingness to surrender biometric data and submit to radiation exposure? The 'golden age of transportation' cannot begin until the TSA is gone," she added.

Imagine what is was like before Bush and his TSA, imagine walking to the gate with your love ones to send them off. Imagine no TSA, it's easy if you try.

Let us take Global entry to the next level and send TSA agents packing.

I wish it were going away but it's not.

Like almost all the rest of this administration's words, this will amount to no actual change.
