This isn't Walmart on Black Friday. This is a community meeting where Dolton Mayor Tiffany Henyard and her boyfriend attack her critics. Sad.

domestic or international? the timing with Colombia using their planes and staff to transport citizens seems forgotten from what, 48 hours ago?

Seems there is a swiss style isolationist ideal amongst the nazi's running the us atm.

Sounds like a plan!

Good quick read. I didn’t know all this about the Oath Keepers leader.

My children and I escaped Stewart Rhodes. But I’ll never forget what he taught me.

For years, Tasha Adams waited for her then-husband’s “undefined restlessness” to subside. Then he founded the Oath Keepers.

That worked so well on 9/11/2001, so obviously we should return to it. (it is weird how ‘effing dumb these people are: 9/11 was what led to the federalization of airport security, and after some initial hiccups…it is a system that is quite scrupulous and effective).

I’ve traveled a lot for work and TSA standards are wildly inconsistent. Think we could easily take a page from how things are handled in other countries. But I’ll take being annoyed at minor inconveniences over lax travel security policies any day.

He is a troll (and possibly previously banned poster or multi) that suffers from Dunning-Kruger, thinking he is insightful when he is just a loser who engages in racist posts and places doubt-seeding regarding sexual assault allegations against Trump. A useless, non-contributory clown to be ignored.

But security is much better than pre-9/11 as that was truly a completely undstandardized free-for-all. I remember (accidentally) bringing a bag of pot back in my shaving kit. The two early-20s “security” staff just laughed when they found it and waved me through; this was around midnight in LGA (I’m glad they did, obviously).

Hang on.

Why are you smuggling some chuff in your shaving kit?

a) why didn't you burn up and have a nice flight?

b) keister your stash for safe carry?

Some people!

Any room for Ashtonian/Ghost Rider/Kenshin on that list?
