    Suspend PreCheck, GE, and ongoing FEMA aid work “due to the shutdown” instead of the wildly expensive, unnecessary, cruel, and downright weird ICE ops. Every day this administration finds new lows to sink to.

    How people supported and continue to support this trash heap of humanity bungling around as an administration I will never understand.

    They also cancelled special TSA escorts for members of Congress. That’s a perk that some members take very seriously.

    This seems like a targeted attempt to affect Congress directly. And with all due respect to Rep. Mace, I think more Democrats fly commercial than Republicans. Heck, it wouldn’t surprise me to find Elon funding a fleet of private jets to ferry his preferred Congressmen (and maybe a few Congresswomen, if he thinks they’re hot) around during this dark time, leaving Democratic officials stuck in line.
