my TSA precheck was due to expire in March. They actually texted me, but I don't do anything based off a text, so I went to the website to check it out. so it's all privatized and for about $60 or $70, doing it through CLEAR but not having to sign up for that program, I renewed.

I got an email telling me my application was being reviewed and was thinking, uh oh, they're going to have an AI bot scroll through my social media and take it away, but that didn't happen. Got this in my email today:

Hi BARBARA,
The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) reviewed your renewal submission to the TSA PreCheck® Application Program and determined that you are approved for the Program. Congratulations!


So I'm good for the next 5 years. Though it appears the TSA line will not be available for awhile right now, which sucks. I think that for the sake of at least forcing some humanitarian changes to ICE it's worth the sacrifice. I wouldn't even mind at all if the Democrats said that's not good enough, END DHS.

fuck kristi noem the puppy murderer rancid adulterer propaganda spitting c--t. She's got the money for a 70 million dollar honeymoon suite in the sky but can't help the people who pay that bill?
