Senate approves TSA funding.

[berg80]

Trump has said he wouldn’t sign anything until the SAVE act is passed, so the question is whether he’ll veto it or TACO.

He also said he wouldn't start any wars so............................

How did we survive prior to 2003?

Hopefully the millions upon millions of air travelers who had to stand in line for hours and sometimes missed flights will remember what the vile dems did to them come November.

He isnt he is ending a war started by democrats Jimmy Carter and funded by Obama and Biden

Huge wins for America, huge tacos for Dems

The Obama administration sent $1.7 billion to Iran in 2016 entirely in cash.

I am sure NONE of that was used to fund terrorism.

Onlookers confused at 'near-empty chamber' as only 5 senators pass major spending bill​

Onlookers were left baffled early Friday after a “near-empty chamber” in the Senate managed to advance a major spending bill that would direct tens of billions of dollars to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).

At around 3 a.m. Friday, the Senate adopted a bill to fund most of DHS, excluding Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Customs and Border Protection, bringing lawmakers one step closer to ending the growing airport disruptions caused by the funding lapse. As noted by Punchbowl News reporter Andrew Desiderio, however, only five senators were present for the vote.

Looks like Trump lost this standoff. Now he can either veto TSA's clean bill or sign it and be a.......

I would submit Spring Break and Trump's threat to pay them anyway actually got the Senate moving. So...good for Trump.

I see it as more of a Pyrrhic Victory for the vile dems.
Air travelers will remember this come November.....And you can count those in their millions.

Every day, FAA's Air Traffic Organization (ATO) provides service to more than 44,000 flights and more than 3 million airline passengers across more than 29 million square miles of airspace.

I see it as a defeat for the entire Congress. Senate bailed early because if they get caught by those tens of thousands of semi stranded travellers they might literally be...eaten.

Yes, and I voted Trump and not happy about the war.

Those of you twats who voted for Obama NEVER criticized his wars,

GFY,

It would be nice if Iran would sell oil and not try to nuke everyone who is not muslim.

Respectfully, I think you hit the tree but missed the target. Trump told them NOT to pass and then threatened to take the credit for paying the TSA around the bill so the Republicans in the Senate said "WTF, he asked us not to pay the TSA unless the whole thing is passed but now he wants to pay them?". So they folded on his request and passed it in spite of his request so they could get the credit.

We can agree to disagree. I am just glad its moving forward. The kids are coming in next weekend to interview and celebrate my birthday!

"While there’s no indication when the DHS might reopen, travelers may see some relief from the historically long lines they’ve endured as soon as next week. President Trump signed an executive order on Friday instructing his administration to pay the TSA using funds from other parts of the federal budget.

“America’s air travel system has reached its breaking point,” the order read. “This is an unprecedented emergency situation.”

Trump steps in to help ease TSA wait times after the House rejects the Senate's plan to end the DHS shutdown

The president announced that he would order his administration to pay airport security officers after negotiations on Capitol Hill to end the ongoing stalemate stalled.

There are millions of people in our nation who would not attempt to stop any person or cell group or more from detonating a WMD if they were aware of it. That is the situation we live in.

Ok. Not related to my post but ok.

Why not just have done this weeks ago?

Schutdown Schumer wanted to hold Americans hostage.

 

[Nostra]

Appears they will get paid. House now has to approve. It only covers paying the TSA and Homeland so I imagine it will.

This could have been done a couple weeks ago.

Senate approves funding for TSA and most of Homeland Security, but not immigration enforcement

It would have been cool to have all employee's quit but.............

Schutdown Schumer got nothing for holding America hostage.

What a clown.

Funny stuff.
