With apologies to Samuel S. Jackson
***THIS IS A STAGED SCRIPT **

An ICE agent, wearing a mask, boards a plane to take a man off. He argues with the man & the woman next to him.
The man eventually leaves with #ICE, as does the woman next to him.
At the end of the video we see the man sitting in the airport saying he was born in the US & he plans to sue.
"The barriers between Trump and information awareness, in other words, remain strong. But with his approval ratings tanking, the economy cratering, and the undistilled chaos of his presidency spreading, Republicans might rue the day Trump decided to send a potent reminder to your local airport about how he's making everything suck."
"The origin story of the plan to send Immigration and Customs Enforcement thugs to the airport truly is nutty. As CNN reported, this all began when 'Linda from Arizona' called in to The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show last week to make her pitch: 'I think I have a solution to the TSA problem.' She said, 'We need to bring in ICE agents.'"

"It’s so obvious that Republicans are terrified of the absolute devastation they’re facing in this election, if they feel like they have to literally physically scare voters away from the polls.

"First you had these masked idiots terrorizing Americans in the streets. Then you send them to the airports, to make the already stressful process of making a flight on time even worse. The end goal is apparently to take all the skills they’ve mastered and apply them to the midterms."

4. Trump’s Transportation Department scrapped a Biden-era rule that would have required airlines to give cash refunds to passengers for significant travel disruptions and delays within the airlines’ control.
5. The Transportation Department is also reportedly planning to claw back other protections around passenger refunds, cut requirements for airlines to disclose junk fees, and roll back rules holding airlines liable for damaged wheelchairs.

Robert Reich enumerates Trump's air travel challenges:
1. Lines are getting longer at airports.
2. Air-traffic controllers are way understaffed and underpaid.
3. Ticket prices are soaring and flights are being cancelled because the cost of jet fuel is soaring.
"If there is any Trump government run spectacle more absurd than long, shuffling lines of citizens surrendering their belts, phones, and carry-ons to a rubber bin, it is the ignorant and simplistic belief that such a security spectacle can be improved by the addition of ICE agents."
