ICE agents are being paid to stand behind unpaid TSA officers who are showing up for work. Could the plan be to force unionized TSA officers to quit and then replace them temporarily with poorly trained ICE agents and then to "privatize" TSA to be outsourced to 3rd-party private cronies on the Right? Sounds like a plausible LT plan to me. #tsa #ice #privatization

@SharonCrockett TSA officer here. It's plausible, especially since there are some airports which are already privatized and have been since day one.

Also, privatizing us is part of the Project 2025 plan.

@SharonCrockett The only thing I'm confused by is the lady standing at the travel document checker podium... she's not wearing a TSA uniform, so I'm confused at to who she is, unless she's a TSA manager who's been roped into checking IDs.

Yeah, now that I see the image larger (previously only phone, now system), she's wearing a purse. TSA don't wear bags, at least none that I remember. (Not a TSA employee, not even frequent flyer these days.)

And the look on her face...oh girl...that's the look of "See, I don't want to have to hide your body...but you are making me have to hide your body..."
