@dmbkparker @slcairport Find out in the future if your airport has a lane for military (active/retired) to fly through security. O’Hare has a number of them in every terminal.

Phew thank goodness. Through @slcairport security in 8min. I took the general lane too just to see since we had plenty of time. I don’t know that the TSA shutdown is as much of an issue as the systems and processes at some airports.

BREAKING - A U.S. federal judge rules against the Pentagon's press policy that revoked our credentials, saying it violates the Constitution. Key quote: "The Court recognizes that national security must be protected, the security of our troops must be protected, and war plans must be protected. But especially in light of the country’s recent incursion into Venezuela and its ongoing war with Iran, it is more important than ever that the public have access to information from a variety of perspectives about what its government is doing—so that the public can support government policies, if it wants to support them; protest, if it wants to protest; and decide based on full, complete, and open information who they are going to vote for in the next election. As Justice Brandeis correctly observed, 'sunlight is the most powerful of all disinfectants.'"

Mr President, Do not! Please! Do not put a detachment ashore in Iran. Every wargame ends badly for the invasion force, Iran’s civilians, and the world's economy. It is a quagmire without end. Call victory and leave.

@realEstateTrent This should be the event that airports consider letting go of the TSA and hiring private security managed by the airport to perform security checks. SFO has done this for years.

Multiple sources report that Trump’s Federal Reserve Chair nominee, Kevin Warsh, is included in the Epstein files. It’s essential that the public fully understand the extent of any interactions or relationship he had with Jeffrey Epstein. I’m pushing for answers.

This video has gone viral for all the wrong reasons. This scary incident is not an isolated incident. Fortunately, it doesn't have to be this way and can be fixed. No parent would feel comfortable riding the CTA with their children as long as this behavior, now all too common on too many lines, continues. Too many Chicagoans rely on public transportation to get to and from work safely and affordably. Having to tolerate incidents like this is unacceptable. Hoping that by not making eye contact with the aggressor, you might get lucky enough to avoid getting hurt, is not a strategy for improving safety and increasing ridership on the CTA. It's also terribly unfair to working class people who can't afford safer transportation options. We need to restore control of our trains by getting Chicago police officers back on them, starting with the worst lines. I rode the Red Line last week, starting on 69th, and spoke with a woman who looked visibly scared. She said she no longer takes the EL because it's unsafe. Her car broke down, and after spending $150 in Uber rides over the prior 3 days, she couldn't afford another Uber ride to get back home from work so that's why she took the CTA. She took it out of desperation. This woman needs to work. She can't afford to lose her job. She is a taxpayer. She, and all Chicagoans and visitors to our city, deserve a clean, safe and reliable transportation system. This clearly mentally ill repeat offender, should not be on our trains, double-fisting hammers, making death threats, after already having been arrested 30 times. He needs mental health services and accountability. Everyone else needs clean, SAFE, reliable trains. It's not too much to ask. It's a bare minimum expectation.

Really hard to blame TSA agents for bailing. They have to feed their families. So when you get to the front of the security lines, don't take your frustrations out on THEM, even if they're grumpy. The folks who are still on the job deserve our profound thanks. And paychecks!
