1 00:00:01,840 --> 00:00:06,279 Speaker 1: TSA officers are set to receive paychecks by today or tomorrow, 2 00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:10,960 Speaker 1: following at emergency executive action by President Donald Trump to 3 00:00:11,080 --> 00:00:16,520 Speaker 1: fund the agency during the ongoing Department of Homeland Security shutdown. 4 00:00:16,960 --> 00:00:21,640 Speaker 1: DHS was instructed to use pre existing funds to pay 5 00:00:21,680 --> 00:00:25,959 Speaker 1: close to fifty thousand TSA employees who have been working 6 00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:30,800 Speaker 1: without pay since February fourteenth, a long time. While the 7 00:00:30,840 --> 00:00:33,920 Speaker 1: pay is expected to start flowing again, long lines and 8 00:00:33,960 --> 00:00:37,480 Speaker 1: staffing shortages are expected to continue for about another week 9 00:00:37,560 --> 00:00:39,760 Speaker 1: or two. They say, give it about another week or two. 10 00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:44,160 Speaker 1: ICE agents deployed to assist at airport checkpoints may remain 11 00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:48,199 Speaker 1: at airports until staffing stabilizes. So it's about time. It's 12 00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:52,040 Speaker 1: been a minute, like six weeks or so. Yeah, it's 13 00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:52,920 Speaker 1: been a long time. 14 00:00:53,240 --> 00:00:56,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know. My thought on that is this, if 15 00:00:56,040 --> 00:00:58,520 Speaker 2: you had the power to sign an eat pen and 16 00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:01,240 Speaker 2: just pay the people, should have did it in the beginning. 17 00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:05,320 Speaker 2: But let's just tell the truth of the matter. All 18 00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:09,040 Speaker 2: of this was tied together to make sure that the 19 00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:13,919 Speaker 2: funding for Homeland Security. It included a budget that covered ICE, 20 00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:17,240 Speaker 2: you know, immigration laws and stuff like that. All of 21 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:19,920 Speaker 2: that stuff was rolled in it. That's why the Republicans 22 00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:23,160 Speaker 2: were fighting so hard about it. Now. They had a 23 00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:28,280 Speaker 2: joint proposal, a bipartisan proposal presented about a week ago almost, 24 00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:31,680 Speaker 2: and when it got to Mike Johnson, he shot it 25 00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 2: down because it didn't include what the President wanted, because 26 00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:38,680 Speaker 2: he want the America Act. You know, it was tied 27 00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:40,800 Speaker 2: up to that you have to be a US citizen 28 00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:43,280 Speaker 2: to vote that Act. But it had, of course you do, 29 00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:45,440 Speaker 2: but that had a lot of stuff in it too, 30 00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:49,520 Speaker 2: about ID checks and confirmation at the polls and all 31 00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:52,840 Speaker 2: like that. So they turned it down. If President Trump 32 00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:55,680 Speaker 2: had the ability to do this, he could have did 33 00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:56,960 Speaker 2: this a long time ago. 34 00:01:57,320 --> 00:02:00,640 Speaker 1: Well yeah, I mean, you know, thank god, they're gonna 35 00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:03,240 Speaker 1: get paid. I guess that's the bottom line. Yeah, and 36 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:05,760 Speaker 1: he should have. You're absolutely right, Steve. But I'm just 37 00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:08,280 Speaker 1: happy that they're going to get paid and all these 38 00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:10,640 Speaker 1: lines and everything in this travel headache. 39 00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:14,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, but you know what, ya, we can't ignore. Okay, Wow, 40 00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:16,000 Speaker 2: they finally got paid. 41 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:16,240 Speaker 1: Good. 42 00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:19,799 Speaker 2: No, the root and cause of the problem is the 43 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:22,600 Speaker 2: politics that we keep playing with these people's lives in 44 00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:25,920 Speaker 2: this country. When Doge was created and he created his 45 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:28,400 Speaker 2: boy Elon Musk, and he came in there we're trying 46 00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:31,880 Speaker 2: to pay fifty thousand tsa. People. Don't you know that 47 00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:35,800 Speaker 2: they cut way more when Elon Musk was in office. 48 00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:38,960 Speaker 2: So if you made all those cuts, where's all that 49 00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:40,000 Speaker 2: money money at? 50 00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:43,320 Speaker 1: Did you line your own pockets with it? Where is course? 51 00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:47,280 Speaker 2: Yes? Crazy, man, it's crazy what we're sitting here and 52 00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:48,680 Speaker 2: allowing to be done. 53 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:49,360 Speaker 1: Yeah. 54 00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:52,280 Speaker 2: And we're allowing it because well, first of all, seventy 55 00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:55,880 Speaker 2: million people voted for this man. Okay, cool, he the president. 56 00:02:56,360 --> 00:03:00,200 Speaker 2: But man, do you see now how they do there's 57 00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:04,239 Speaker 2: no more democracy? 58 00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:07,720 Speaker 1: You're right, And the bottom line is, don't let this 59 00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 1: frustrate you and get you in a mode of I 60 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:12,680 Speaker 1: don't care. They're going to do what they want to 61 00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:16,280 Speaker 1: do anything anyway. And all of that apathy you have 62 00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:19,919 Speaker 1: to vote, this should make you want to vote even more. 63 00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:23,320 Speaker 1: And these elections are coming up this year, so let's 64 00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 1: do what we got to do.
