MTfromCC @mtfromcc.bsky.social · 27/03/2026It is actually illegal. But he doesn’t want to share credit with Ds, so this is what he is doing.

Elanie @elanie.bsky.social · 27/03/2026Interestingly, the 9/11 security fee we pay, would completely fund the TSA except for the fact that Congress diverts 65% of the fee to the treasury to use in other things like the general budget and servicing our debt.
