it's Republicans and Trump.

Words matter. ❤️

The overlording of public service has warped our vision for America

How is he supposed to escape his constituents on the fly now?

although, what did the folk in those other countries do to deserve that

Houston isn't a Delta hub.

let's just hope Delta is leading the way

Delta and other airlines should suspend that “service” until Congress fixes that madness. Congress has abdicated their responsibilities with this administration and they need to take em back.

What Trump and Miller are doing in these mass deportations is extremely illegal and cruel. They need to be stopped and Fat Donny can go shove his "threaten to revoke" bullshit up his ass.

Video of Delta flying the little boy with the bunny ears hat to a concentration camp in Texas.

Rachel brutalized them for hauling families with little kids off to concentration camps.

aren't affected.......they have some Corporation's Private Jet at their service 24/7/365...........

If they promise to sanitize her toys.

That rent-free house in Navy Yard, which is intended for the Coast Guard Commandant?

All the airlines should do this! Republicans will buckle under that!

Nancy would probably be ranting raving and chucking empty airplane bottles at the people in front of her.

But their seat isn’t going to get there any faster than the rest of the plane, after all.

One time, I was on a commuter flight from Amsterdam to Düsseldorf, and I noticed the guy sitting next to me looked exactly like Walter Scheel, the former President of Germany. I figured, no way, their former president wouldn’t be flying all by himself. But I couldn’t hold back, and I asked him if he was Walter Scheel, and he said yes, that’s me.

I explained that I was from the USA. He asked where. I said originally Virginia, near Washington. He said, oh, sure, I used to travel there every so often when I was still working. « When I was still working?? » The country’s Federal President, instead of saying, « while I was still president, » just puts it as « while I was still working. »

When we landed, we got to German immigration (pre-Schengen), and he presented his passport like anyone else. The German border police waved him through, saying, yes, yes, Herr Präsident, we know who you are. I was right behind him, so he turned to me, and said, take it easy, and see you next time in Washington! The border cops saw my American passport, and said, « you know our president? » I said « of course! » and they said, well then, go on through. Ridiculous, since I could have been a wanted serial killer for all they knew. But it was the easiest border control I ever had.

The Germans, true to their reputation for being obsessed with bureaucratic detail, in those days used to print the profession of every passport holder in the passport underneath the photo and listed name. When Walter Scheel opened his passport to show the German border police, I saw what was printed in his passport in the line where the holder's profession was supposed to be listed. It read "Alt-Bundespräsident," or "former Federal President." How stodgy can a country get? Can you imagine some CBP officer asking Bill Clinton, arriving from London or wherever, what he does for a living? To their credit, Germany doesn't do that any more.

The snowflakes believe their entitlement and privilege are meant to save them from rubbing elbows with constituent residents (and weather, too) and their folksy concerns over high food prices, stagnant wages (for those with jobs), exorbitant fuel costs, and the General Welfare crap so inconvenient to the wight-wing.

Between Republicans realizing that the public rightly blames the con artist for the slowdown at airports because the con is refusing to pay TSA workers, the bad optics and potential danger of putting ICE agents at airports, and now no perks for Congress.

Suddenly all the Republicans want to work with Senate Democrats to pay the TSA workers after refusing to do so for several weeks.

should be suspended to them too.

We would have a much more egalitarian Congress because the users who grift off our taxpayers' dime would have no incentive to run for office. Our country would be so much better off. While we're at it we should pass laws to get the money out of campaigns and limit the time a candidate's campaign can last.

She was our board memeber for our school district.

double, or triple.

Charge them extra. They can afford it.

bill he introduced, publicly touted, and successfully passed via unanimous consent last week to make Senators/Congressmen go through the same long security check procedures as everyone else? Didn't he call out Democrats for not passing DHS funding in doing this? Here's his quote:

“I am glad the Senate has agreed with this commonsense bill to prevent those of us who pass the laws, or in this case refuse to pass the laws funding [the Department of Homeland Security] appropriations, to prevent us from receiving special privileges,”

It endlessly galls me that Congress gets top-tier health care and generous retirement while we voters and citizens only get them restricting those things. Legislators should be paid a fair wage and not given a whole lot beyond that.

next up United and American, Southwest, Jet Blue, Frontier...............what say you...........

Guess who tends to have a lot of SkyMiles?
