Why is the safety of airline passengers even an issue?
The US Congress is corrupt & anti-American right now, willing to risk lives of American passengers, as well as murder innocent nurses and moms with out-of control ICE.
The Congress is NOT doing its job well, so hopelessly unethical and inept!

An ICE agent attempted to enter the Ecuadorian Consulate in Minneapolis, threatening the staff member who prevented him from entering.
Hello? ICE is so out of control that its agents think they can break international law.
Congress needs to rein them in yesterday.

The world is closer than ever to the end, according to those behind the Doomsday Clock, which is set 85 seconds to “midnight” for 2026.
Members of the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists moved the metaphorical clock forward by four seconds as threats of humanity’s own making continue to grow.

Whistleblowers just shared a memo showing DHS instructing ICE to force their way into peoples' houses without a proper warrant. Why is this not on all the networks right now? This is a criminal conspiracy to violate rights under color of law.

Surprise surprise. When the president continues to lie non-stop and the wimpy press and his cowardly party are too afraid to correct him everything suffers and people die.

The Trump administration is anti-American.
Trump's lying criminal administration has money for lawless ICE to terrorize and even murder innocent Americans with impunity, pretending it's dealing only with a fake problem of unlawful illegals but it doesn't have money to help with real problems!
