Yeah, no one likes this guy, but he's got a point here. A ticket or check-in agent just walked up to her and stuck her hand in the bag, where she kept her dog. And allegedly threatening her with a no-fly list.

Someone wrote: if they do this to a globalist Democrat bootlicker just because he calls himself a Republican, just imagine what they would do to you.

The Democrats weaponized the no-fly list against Republicans in an 'ironic' twist of fate, with the Republicans being the original driving force behind the no-fly lists, to be used against suspected Muslim terrorists.

Same as the Patriot Act and 'war on terror' rhetoric.

Did you know Michael Luttig, a George W. Bush judge who said the president had the right to indefinitely hold without trial any American citizen if he labels him as a terrorist, is now clamoring for disqualifying Trump?

Let him hope that Trump has more scruples than he does.

One of the reasons they are looking to start a war, is so that they can declare a swath of American citizens to be "Enemy combatants". Honestly, I think that was also a plan against Donald Trump if they could tie him to Russia in any way.

Those were the talking points about Gonzalo Lira, even by those who knew him and were somewhat sympathetic.

"Why are you criticizing a country at war?"

"Why didn't you flee as soon as war started?"

"Even in the US, the 1st Amendment is voided in times of invasion".

I believe that Lira's death has proven him right.

Republicans were in charge at the time it passed, but it wasn't a partisan vote. It passed nearly unanimously.

I never thought of purse puppies as some sort of anti-theft system. Hmm. fantasizes about taming a rattlesnake for a purse pet

"You said that was your rattlesnake skin bag!"

"No, I said it was my rattlesnake's kin bag! Made out of its clutchmates so it feels surrounded by something familiar!"

You don't even need a rattle-snake. Most people react badly to all reptiles.

Put a gecko or bearded dragon in there and people will absolutely flip out. Or, alternatively, use a handful of corn snakes.

Yeah, he's a sitting senator who's not a staunch Trump ally. That's pretty ballsy for most people.

I dislike eye-patch Mccain (great nickname by the way) but it's evidence how DEI initiatives and diversity hiring has backfired extremely badly because these people were hired just because they were a minority not because of merit. They think they're intrinsically above everyone else as a result and so act arrogantly all the time.

Hopefully patches is a petty bitch and decides to fuck with airlines through legislation, I would pick using racial quotas in hiring practices as well as ignoring safety concerns as good avenues to target.

Backfired? Buddy, the DEI programs are doing exactly what the globohomo commies want it to do.

Make us all a lot more racist?

Seriously I think we had it better in the 90s, we were probably closer to peace on earth when everyone was sightly more edgy.....and loved cargo pants..

Yes, 100% the goal of DEI is to stratify society. It makes it easier for the neo-Marxists to slip in between the cracks and infiltrate into positions of power.

Remember kids: Diversity Is Divisive!

He says he will introduce a bill safeguarding the rights of airline passengers.

JFC. Yes, the solution here is not to tell UA to ESAD, but instead to add yet another regulation to the clearly wild-west de-regulated world of airline travel.

Maybe if we get the TSA to handle luggage, that will fix it too!

It's already against the law for random employees to try and steal your shit.

It’s not going to pass until they tack on a bunch of bullshit like global warming trackers or social media screenings or something and guys like Dan Crenshaw will pat themselves on the back for doing what had to be done to stand up for the little guy

I think it was Alex Stein who gave Dan Crenshaw the moniker.

It's United, the airline that hands out complimentary scorpions and ass-beatings. Expecting good service from United Airlines is like expecting haute cuisine from McDonald's.

I know it sucks because it's more pricey, but people really have to be selective of more than price with their airlines and airports.

His wife's boyfriend probably would have handled it better.
