Ya know, I'm fine with this one. TSA doesn't protect or stop anything. It's all security theatre.
To be fair the TSA is just a federal jobs program and the workers are at least better off than if they worked for a private company doing the same thing. But that probably last too long under Trump. Then the TSA will be shuttered, replaced with private companies and AI the workers turned into contractors with no health benefits.
Hey man, the number of major terrorist attacks the TSA has stopped is non-negative!
Edit: wait, they haven’t caused any, have they?
