Finally — No More VIP Perks: TSA Yanks Congressional Escorts During Democrat ShutdownTSA just delivered a dose of sweet justice amid the ongoing partial government shutdown — courtesy escorts for members of Congress (you know, those special hand-holding fast-tracks through security) have been suspended to let officers focus on actually securing America’s skies.No more elite shortcuts. No more skipping the lines the rest of us endure. Lawmakers now wait in the same cattle calls as everyday Americans — shoes off, laptops out, dignity optional.This comes one week into the mess sparked by Democrats refusing to pass a responsible budget, leaving DHS stretched thin and forcing tough calls like this. PreCheck stays up (after some flip-flopping confusion), but the swamp’s favorite privilege? Gone.The public reaction? Pure gold. Regular Americans are cheering: “About damn time,” “Make ’em feel the pain,” “Withhold their pay too!” Even conservatives are piling on — why should Congress get special treatment while federal workers and travelers suffer from their gridlock?If shutdowns are the game Washington plays, let the elites play by the same rules they impose on everyone else. No more two-tier justice at the airport.Drain the swamp — starting with the VIP line. 🇺🇸✈️#DrainTheSwamp #NoMoreVIP #GovernmentShutdown #TSAJustice
